 Amanda Temes (The New Alice) Amanda limped through the woods as quickly as her legs could carry her. Amanda was always the curious type of girl who traveled where she pleased. Her latest adventure, heading south with no approximate destination, had ended in a success but also brought her a bit of injury. The girl stopped for a moment to check her wounded leg. She was bleeding from below the knee, but nothing too major. She looked around for a moment, surveying her surroundings. "Wait a minute... I know this place!" she yelled to no one in particular. At the edge of this particular forest lived a rather eccentric man, formally known as "The Mad Hatter." She remembered the hatter because he made the hat she wore, and she always wore it. Excited at the thought of her old friend, she ran off as fast as she could, ignoring the pain in her leg. "I must be close" she muttered, smelling tea.(does tea have a smell?) She had to stop herself from running into the wall of the house, a common source of injury for her after all, was not watching where she was going. She inched about the premises and found the door. She hit the door four times, not wanting to knock any m ore than that, and reached down to pull up her sock to cover her wound. Little did she realize that a red stain could be seen through the fabric.

☢ ♈ ☢ Maxim nearly dropped the tea pot as he poured the scalding liquid into the cup, accidentally dripping some on his hands. He swore softly and put the teapot down, shaking his hand violently. Red welts were already beginning to raise.
Who could that be? he asked himself, furrowing his brow in confusion. I wasn't expecting anyone...
He left the small kitchen quickly and moved towards the front door, opening it with a flourish and a rude remark on his lips about having been disturbed. But when he saw who the visitor was, a large smile broke across his face.
"Amanda! How wonderful it is to see you! How are you? Would you like to come in? I've just made a pot of tea, although you probably know that. The smell is quite strong, yes? Come in, come in!" he exclaimed, stepping aside so she could enter. "The sitting room is right through that door. I bet you... Remember..."
His long trail of words suddenly died off, his eyes having landed on a rather dark red splotch blooming across one of Amanda's socks.
"What happened to you? Never mind, just go and sit down. I'll bring you some tea and we can fix you up," he said, his words now tinged with a hint of worry.

Amanda Temes (The New Alice) " Hi, Maxim!" she said with a huge grin. What asked about her leg, she said," oh you know me, always clumsy." She walked in, yet again ignoring the pain in her leg. Amanda made her way to the sitting room and sat on the nearest couch. A familiar place with a familiar face was always welcome in her adventure, but she couldn't help but dread having to explain not only her latest adventure but how she got hurt too. Still, she sat quietly, playing in her large, blonde ponytails, waiting for Maxim to reappear with first aid supplies.

☢ ♈ ☢ Closing the door behind her, Maxim disappeared into the kitchen with a shake of his head. It was true, he knew very well of her clumsiness.
After a minute or two, he hurried into the sitting room, a tray with everything he needed grasped between his hands. As he placed it down on the small side table beside Amanda, he chuckled softly. "You really should be more careful. Are you going to tell me exactly what happened, or are you just going to leave it with you being clumsy?" he asked, glancing at her curiously before sitting cross-legged on the floor before her.
As delicately as possible, he tugged at her sock, leaning closer to get a better look at the cut. "Well, it doesn't need stitches, lucky for you. Although I bet it wouldn't be any harder than sewing two pieces of cloth together... Lots of blood, though." He dabbed gently at the wound with a damp piece of cloth, trying to clear away the blood. Once it was clean, he began to wind a long strip of gauze around her leg, taking his time and patiently waiting for her to explain.

Amanda Temes (The New Alice) "Ummm..." she stammered as he started bandaging her leg. To be honest, she didn't mind stitches, maxim was good with that sort of thing, but oh, how she dreaded explaining. She never liked talking, even to her closest friends, but alas, she yields," I fell out of a tree... on a bush... with thorns..." That was all she would say before she tightly closed her lips. She left out the fact that she was sleeping in a tree above a rose bush, and that fact that she had no idea it was there when she climbed up. Nevertheless, that's all Maxim would get out of her without reading her mind. She continued twirling the long strands of blonde hair about her hands to keep herself calm.

☢ ♈ ☢ Maxim stopped working for a moment, staring up at Amanda with wide gray eyes. "I hate to say it, but that certainly does sound like something you would do," he teased, withholding a grin.
"But," he began, tying a pretty bow with the gauze, "bushes do not simply pop out of thin air. I can't believe you didn't see it. Oh well. I'm just glad you're okay."
He stood and quickly poured another cup of tea for Amanda, placing it within arm's reach of her. Taking his own cup, he sat down in a plush armchair and sipped lazily. "I'm afraid your sock might be ruined beyond repair. Blood is very difficult to remove," he said casually, choosing not to divulge exactly how he knew that. "I can make you another pair if you want. My most recent project is finally complete, so I do have a bit of time on my hands before the next order comes around."

Amanda Temes (The New Alice) Amanda looks at her ruined sock, then back to Maxim. " That... would be lovely... but I couldn't ask that of you. You're a very busy man... I wouldn't want to bother you with it..." She picked up the tea and took a sip of it. "Tailoring a sock would seem a bit mundane for his talents." she thought. while it is true she can't go far with a bloody sock, and an equally bloody bandaged leg, she couldn't bring herself to ask this of him. Her mouth locked up again. Amanda didn't want to say it, or anything else. She took another sip of the tea. Even though she refused to ask for a new sock, she wouldn't think twice about asking for more tea should her cup empty, she was enjoying it.

"C'mon, just once! I promise I'll patch it up later... maybe."
"Tempting, but no. There are more consequences than there are benefits to kicking down Arson's door."
"Ain't so in my mind."
"If you have a mind at all."
"You're cruel, Klaus."
"Am I, Kris?"
Kris and Klaus Zwillinge stopped in front of the door to Maxim Arson's house. Klaus paused only to give his twin a warning look before rapping sharply on the door. Kris rolled his eyes and leaned against the wall. Klaus kept a close eye on him - rather, his foot, to make sure he didn't decide to randomly do the deed on his own. He didn't want to think of the amount of trouble they'd get in with the eccentric tailor if Kris kicked his door down; Maxim already disliked Kris enough, no need to spark his temper so early in the morning.

I guess I can post right? I feel a bit...scared though. This is all so very new and I don't want to make a fool out of myself (which I do a lot).
Anyhow here I go. Hopefully I won't let you down. You can deny, it won't make me feel bad...just worthless ;~;
Actually just deny it. I'll block this from my mind and...And I a bit overbearing? Want to see my other posts to see if I'm worthy? I can give you a link!
Hello, my name is Királynő (won't that be fun?) I have 25 candles on my birthday cake. Sorry, I'm straight. I have inherited the role of White Queen. If I wrote an autobiography, it would go like this... With a prestigious family before her Kiralyno was an exceptional child. But the hands of time have seemed to repeat like an old cassette. At the appropriate age Kiralyno was thrust into the position of White Queen. She has reigned for a few years and finds the position quite bland until something odd happens. A strange white puff of smoke in the shape of a small girl begins to dance on her throne. Quickly writing down this event in her small journal she begins to contemplate what next will happen in her small story. Some of my favorite things are Pretty much everything, like snow for example, I love snow. Not to mention Winter.. Keep rotten foods away from me, I can't stand them. This is me. Aren't I goodlooking?

☢ ♈ ☢ Maxim laughed and put down his teacup, flashing a grin at Amanda. "It would not be a bother at all. Like I said, I just finished a dress, so I do have a bit of free time," he said quietly, pushing himself up off the chair. "Do you have a preferred color or pattern? I can go get a few fabric samples, just so you can get an idea of what you would like..."
As he started off towards his workroom, yet another knock on his front door came. With an exaggerated sigh, he turned on his heel and approached the door slowly. "I am rather popular today..." me mumbled before opening the door.
Before him stood Kris and Klaus. How wonderful.
"Can I help you two with something? I'm a tad busy at the moment, you see, and I already have company," he said dryly, gaze jumping between the twins quickly. It had taken much of his willpower to be courteous to them, to not simply slam the door in their faces and go back to Amanda.((Accepted!))

Amanda Temes (The New Alice) Amanda watched as he left to answer the door. As much as she wanted to get up and see who it was, she doubted Maxim would want her walking. Since Maxim had insisted on making her new socks, she thought about just what style she wanted them in. To be honest she wanted a pair just like the ones she was wearing if possible. She decided to await Maxim's return, drinking her tea while it still held heat.

((There are so many females in this RP, so I made a guy. heart and I also secretly wanted to use this picture but I thought that maybe it's too visual so yeah.)) Hello, my name is Alexander Red).
I have 20 candles on my birthday cake.
Sorry, I'm Pansexual
I have inherited the role of Red Queen (King) .
If I wrote an autobiography, it would go like this... After the disastrous downfall of the Red Kingdom because of its scandalous queen, it's rehabilitation became difficult for the whole court. A huge kingdom-wide debate was held to dispute on whether they should surrender to the White kingdom completely, or pursue the rigorous path of restoring the kingdom to its former glory.
Alexander Red, had always been a man of great ambition, and seeing the kingdom in turmoil was more of a challenge to him than a dilemma. He campaigned for the position of King, and after much coercion and a bit of white-lying ( oh the irony) he was made King at the age of 15.
A king for 5 years, Alexander has earned great respect, not only for being able to unite the people to rebuild their kingdom (as the youngest king to ever hold court) , but also for being able to maintain a platonic alliance with the white kingdom.
A bit crazy in the head, and maybe too rash at times, Alexander still tries to remain kingly for his subjects...well, he tries.
Some of my favorite things are anything that's red, anything I can chew, and a good challenge.
Keep Pastries and kittens away from me, I can't stand them.
This is me. Aren't I goodlooking?  Personal preferences: I'm sorry if it's too much of a hassle, but please quote me in every post that has anything to do with me—I forget things easily D: Thank you! [quote="-EcstaticParanoia-"][/quote] )

⧼ ↷♕↶ Királynő ↷♕↶ ⧽
Another boring day was ahead of Lyno as her heels clicked against her marble steps. Was life meant to be this...dull? She shook her head without emotion and sought to explore her courtyard. ⓞⓞⓒ▐ : I'll call Kiralyno Kira or Lyno for now. Her name is tough as it is, it's quite HUNGARIAN right? Dang I wish I remembered what language it was at the time...oh well, say hi to Lyno for now! But that doesn't matter, did I makes the good post? emotion_sweatdrop

Kris only paused a moment to give the tailor his signature grin before slipping past him into the house. He gazed around the quaint house, a content smile on his face. "Love what you've done with the place, Maxim. Did'ja remodel it? I think you've remodeled it, didn't you say you remodeled the place, Maxim?"
Then, spotting Amanda sitting on the couch, he gave her a grin as well and strode over to her. He and his brother came across her quite a few times while they were running errands for the Queen. Interesting young woman, she was. "Why, if it ain't Miss Amanda! Got yourself in a spot of trouble, I see." he said, nodding to her bandaged leg.
Klaus shrugged in apology for his brother's actions. He could clearly see Maxim's visible effort to restrain himself from strangling Kris, or something in that manner. He wisely stayed outside on the front step. "Queen's sent us to fetch her new dress. We trust you've finished it by now?"
