Either she was lucky, or that tree had legs and it was following her. It asked her the same question before she gave the tree a flat look, answering "rainbows and unicorns" before it spat out yet another item.
She was starting to get bored now.
Wiz turned to Pinky with a small smile, wondering what she was staring at.
"Well thank youfor not judging...Do you....Wanna stick together? Form a party of sorts?! We could collect all the things and no one could say anything!"
She hopped she would say yes.
Bupa da da daaa da da dauuum! QUEST COMPLETED!

She couldn't help but laugh outright when the boy got the same stupid tree. "Suffer with me, see if you're any better at it than me. See if you can live up to your own talk."
SLC kept pushing around the leaves, "At this point, I think I'd crush the glasses when I found them for general principles."
Catching sight of the touchy feely tree holding on to the other boy made her burst into giggles again.

You reach a broken tree and it is sobbing. "I'm so very sad", says the broken tree. "So, so very sad indeed. I left my glasses around here and now I can't find them. Can you help me out?"
If you don't help it out it gives you nothing and continues to sob.
If you help it out, search around the tree for glasses! Roll 1d4. If you roll a 4 you succeed in finding its glasses. It is super excited as you hand it back. "Thank you, oh my goodness, thank you indeed. Here, have this." It gives you a fragment and insists on giving you a hug, but the hug is very prickly and not very nice at all. +1 Fragment.
All that work to shake the tree down had actually taken a fair amount of effort. Taan refused to show it in front of anyone, but here among the trees? She reached out with one hand to brace herself against the trunk as she cooled off for a second, and would have remained there for a bit longer if the tree hadn't started bending and talking.
She crinkled her nose in disgust at what it was saying. "Are you serious?" Gross, with a side of no thank you.
Wiping her hands on her coat she looked back up and...the tree was gone. Hopefully it still counted toward her 5 trees, and hey, at least she was over halfway done.

The mutt mumbled under his breath while kicking the leaves around. What kind of forest has a bunch of trees that mumble and cry the same phrases and tasks over and over again? What were the chances they would end up meeting the same trees over and over again? This was insane and idiotic!
With a grunt, WD fell to the forest floor and started searching among the leave for the so called glasses. It wasn't long before he felt his hands run over the lost item and a grin appeared on the hound's face.
"So I'm an idiot, huh? Well what do you call a person who fails the same task, twice?"
With that said WD handed the glasses back to the tree and before he knew it he was wrapped in a rather painful hug.
"Okay! Okay! LET GO! PLEASE!"

SLC's face coloured up in fury. Her head became an odd mottled purple shade. Grabbing up the first thing she could find, she hurled a pinecone at his back.
"Even broken clocks are right twice a day," she said begrudgingly.
Walking a few feet away SLC came up on a tree with bright vivid strips that seemed to be arguing with itself a little.
"I beg your pardon," says the tree with stripes, "but I am not silly at all. In here everything is possible and anything is impossible and therefore a tree with stripes is completely within everything and anything." Its stripes change colours. "Now, give me a good, good shake. I want to get some more colour out. Shake me really well, if you do I'll reward you."
"Your my kind of tree!" SLC grabbed firmly a hold of the tree and shook it quite violently pretending that it was Set. She wondered if he was here. This guy was almost as obnoxious.
Breatheless, she let go. "So there!"
The tree giggled like crazy and dropped a fragment. Picking it up, SLC shoved it into her pocket.

"Hey now!"
Sure she didn't know how to aim, but she still managed to hit him in the back of the head. Quickly, WD grabbed the pine cone and chased after the girl in an attempt to get some retaliation. Yeah, maybe it was childish, but it made him feel better, and that's all that mattered, right? Right. He would just keep telling himself that.
Just as the weak excuse of a weapon left his hands a tree spoke up beside him and nearly had him jumping out of his skin.
"I beg your pardon," said the tree with stripes. Stripes, of course. How amusing.
"I am not silly at all. In here everything is possible and anything is impossible and therefore a tree with stripes is completely within everything and anything." Its stripes change colours.

"Well, a reward is a reward is a reward, so who am I to complain?"
Grin plastered on his face, the hound shook the tree with all his might, and it was not long before his reward appeared on the forest floor. Another fragment to add to his growing collection.
"I would love to stay and chat with you, missy," WD said while pocketing his new treasure and walking past the girl, ", but there is still a lot to explore and more to be done I would guess. Still, why don't we meet up again some time, huh? Maybe you'll actually find something you're good at...OR NOT! Broken clocks will always be broken after all!"
With that said, the hound gave the girl a quick, playful slap against the back of her head and headed off.

As coinciousness slowly returned to her Miyu mumbles a bit before finally opening her eyes what she first found was that she was on the ground not a surprise really considering she had blacked out after drinking that strange liquid from that curious bottle... lesson learned... Never drink strange liquids from curious bottles if one can help it...
The next thing she noticed was noise loud cheerful noise this caused her to lift herself up so that she was on her hands and knees so she could find the source of the merry tune which she quite liked actually however she could not find the direct source and only found a forest... wait a forest? wasn't she in a house when she passed out? ...She knew this was a dream for thats all it could be but it was turning into a very curious dream which wasn't all together bad just... curious however it seemed to have great potental for adventure and Miyu always loved those kinds of dreams
Finally she sits back on her knee's so she could just take in her surroundings the world was bright and curious and almost... wonderous as her gaze panned she happened to look down at her knee's thats when a realization hit her where was her usual attire...? Confusion set in as she started to check out the outfit she appeared to be wearing a short sleeved dark rich blue coat dress with light rich blue buttons and trim her usual orange and black socks were replaced with light blue and dark blue striped ones and she was wearing shoes! Short dark blue boots to be exact her hair was still pumpkin orange and she assumed her eyes were still shadow black finally she noticed the scarf around her neck it was light blue with darker blue strips and curiously enough the dark spaces on the end of the scarf kept dissapearing then reappearing "Whoa..." she says in awe as she gets to her feet looking the dress over once more her expression soon went from awe to joy as she got a good look at it she scrunches up excitedly before jumping into the air "Eeee! I love this outfit!" she squeels joyfully as she does after several seconds of fawning over her new outfit she finally calmed down and as she did she felt something strange "Hm?" she sounds as she feels something odd on her head
Miyu reaches up to see what was on her head and the moment she does her eyes widen in surprise she traces the shape with her fingers before a joyous look appeared on her face She had Cat Ears! Real Ones! It was then she felt another strange sensation which causes her to smile joyfully she turns to see a long fluffy blue tail which strangely kept fading out in parts at the end
Once again she squeeled joyfully and spent well over a minute just watching her tail as she tries to figure out how to make it move it didn't take long before she was a pro at moving her tail and ears once she was confident in her ability she spins around hoping to find her familiar waiting for her "Toma! Look! Im a cat like... you...?" She says her sentence trailing off as she didn't see her familiar infact it just occured to her she hadn't seen or heard him sense she woke up... He had been with her when she first walked on the path and when they arrived at the Rabbit Hole he was there but what about after when she went down the rabbit hole... Was he with her then? Hm...
She realizes she hadn't seen her familiar sense she went down the rabbit hole her tail stopped swaying and her ears fell flat agenst her head as a growing knot of worry started to form in her gut memories from the Nightmare they both shared mere nights ago flashed through her mind briefly which caused her to instictively call out for him "Toma..." she calls in a small nervous voice the lack of reply caused her to grow more nervous until she heard something! "Miyu? Where are you?" She hears her ears perk up and she looks around for him until she realized she had heard the voice mentally "Toma? If you can hear me im in a strange place and I look like a cat!" she thinks mentally for a minute or so she was worried she couldn't talk back or it was just her imagination when no reply came but finally one did "Im outside the Rabbit Hole I couldn't enter it for some reason..." he replies relief washed over to her and she spent a good few minutes describing where she was and everything she had experienced so far
When Miyu was done she mentally nods and tells Toma she was going to explore so if no reply came he shouldn't be worried and with that she was about to take a step towards the forest when a realization struck her... Where was her Hat!?

She was rewarded as the pinecone hit him square on the back of the head, but it was short lived. He took off running after her with another cone. Just when she though she'd escaped, the pinecone hit her in the middle of the back.
"OUCH!"
"Hello," says the long slender tree. "I have a small question. I have two friends, Dilly, Milly, and Nilly. Nilly is taller than Dilly, but shorter than me. Dilly is shorter than Milly but taller than me. How tall am I?"
"NO! NOT YOU AGAINI!"
"No, why, I do not think that's the answer at all. You are very wrong."
She heard the barb thrown at her, but before she could say anything else. He was gone.

If you answer as truthfully as you can the tree says "No, why, I do not think that's the answer at all. You are very wrong."
If you tell them you do not know the tree gloats. "Why, I didn't think you would. It proves I am the better tree." But you are not a tree at all!
These legs could not carry Mimsy nearly as quickly as she wanted to go, so she kept her eyes focused on smaller goals: reach that patch of grass, or that strange stump, or that particular tree. As frequently as she split things apart, broke them into all their little pieces to make sense of them, she didn't do that with goals. All of her goals tended to be the sort that people inwardly winced when she spoke of them, the sort that forced them to try their hardest to avoid responding with things like overzealous or too ambitious.
But this was different. This was Wonderland. It was safe to try it this way. Point A led to Point B led to Point C led to Point D, and Point D was a tree with a smile.
No, not quite. A tree with a smile for a hat. She smiled back up at it, her best Cheshire grin spreading until her cheeks hurt, and listened as it spoke. The invisible smiling entity, of course - not the tree.
"You seem a little lost", it said. "But not to worry. Everyone's quite lost here. I hope you find your way, there's so much more for you to get lost in."
"Everyone?" she asked no one, as there was nobody there.

It should have bothered him. Really it should have. Fore example, he was wandering around in a dream world that kind of felt a little too real to be a dream, and yet... and yet all he was concerned about was--why couldn't he remember the taste of that 'drink me' beverage? Seriously, come on! He was curious before he drank the drink, and he was curious afterwards. Damn it! Why couldn't he remember?
Somehow, while wondering through the woods, lost in his thoughts, K9Ghost had manged to stumble across the wood sign. Though it was exclamation mark hovering above that caught his attention. Instinctively, he reached out to touch it just as it started to talk.
Oh, well, this was just peachy. He was to go tree gazing for the talking sign. Yep. Definitely your typical, bizarre dream material right there.

Now... did stumps still count as a tree? He supposed they did. After all, the rest of the tree had to be laying around here somewhere, right? Seriously, who could lose a tree? Besides! He could still examine this.
And he did.

Miyu began to look around with a slightly paniced expression on her face yes this was a dream but in every dream she could remember she had her hat in some form or another
When her search of the immediate area proved fruitless she was about to move to search else where when the ground rumbled and shook briefly it wasn't intense but it was enough to knock her off balence and cause her to stumble forwards as she did she felt something around her neck swing forward as she stumbled forwards then fall back as she righted herself the object bounced lightly agenst her chestband she quickly picks it up to inspect it to her delight it was a pendant that looked exactly like her hat she knew it was her hat and after clutching it close for a moment she relaxed then let it fall slack again
Now that all her curiosities and consirns had been adressed she looks towards the forest "Hm... seems as good a place as any" she says casually (she also was still curious as to where that nice music was coming from) then begins walking towards the Forest as she neared it she noticed a wooden sign with a... exclamation mark over it? Curious as she was about the forest that sign seemed to pique her curiosity even more and so she headed for it instead
To her surprise upon reaching the sign the exclamation mark dissapears and a voice sounds from the sign "Whoa!" she says in surprise definatly not expecting a talking sign however she focused on what the sign was telling her and once it was finished she crosses her arms as she thinks about what it told her "Hm... gain experience? That sounds like something from a Video Game... wait..." she mutters to herself thats when something caught her eye she uncrosses her arms and looks back realizing for the first time that there were other people here and that they had floating letters over their heads... floating letters? They looked like names and Levels...? ...Wait a minute!
It was then what the memory came floating back! When she had passed out she awoke to find herself in darkness just like her Nightmare however this darkness felt totally different and felt safe suddenly a strange puppet like girl had appeared infront of her and explained she was playing a game much like a MMO (Miyu had tried a few of those and loved them) but this game took place in dreams after explaining things the girl asked her to choose a name and pick a Job Class after that everything went dark again
Miyu stood there running through the memory when she finished she blinks in understanding and looks at the world with fresh eyes "This is a Game! A Dream Game!" She says excitedly then quickly looks above her head she smiles as she see's floating letters above her head too her smile widens at the name she choose Pumcat was the name a nickname she often called her familiar seeing the name made her relax alittle and finally with a mental nod deturmaned she would enjoy this dream game and do her best
She was snapped from her thoughts when she heard a slightly impatient thoat clearing sound "Hm?" she says before looking at the sign "Oh sorry! So I should find five tree's right?" she appologizes then asks in a curious tone "That is correct" it says before going quiet the exclamation mark returning once more "Ok!" she churps cheerfully ready to start her adventure "It shouldn't be to hard the forest is full of tree's but what did it mean by some of them are shy?..." she says to herself as she walks to the path and enters the forest it didn't take her long to find out shortly after entering she saw other people gathered around a few trees and they seemed to be moving! Infact not just moving but talking too! Miyu's eyes widen as her expression grew excited "Tree Creatures! Cool!" she says excitedly they seemed almost like the pumpkin creatures her father raised and she now couldn't wait to meet one however all the current trees seemed busy so she moved deeper into the forest
Finally she came upon a curious looking tree "Hi Tree!" she says assuming it was one of the sentient ones however when no response came she frowns dissapointedly and was about to go find another tree when her keen cat ears picked up on a light snickering sound she whirls around but finds nothing confused yet curious she starts scanning the trunk looking for the source of the sound finally she found the source up above her resting calmly was a bright white grin... just a grin at first... however upon seeing they had been discovered the owner of the grin revealed themselves to be a Cheshire Cat! All at once the theme of the world became clear to her there was a very good reason why the world seemed wonderous and fantastical because this world was based off of Wonderland!

It doesn't take much to get fouof to explore things. Anything from a simple request to a direct order to an outright prohibition. Anything. Sometimes, all it takes was the fact that she was there and it was there, so why the Jack not?
Wayfinder, eh? fouof thinks to herself as the being is introduced and silently, she listened to the instructions and the request for her to examine... trees. fouof blinked in surprise, not that it was visible beneath the fringes of her bangs, but the act was made for her own sake. Alright, she shrugs and went off to do just that.
Regrettably, K9 had to leave his new found seat in order to examine four more trees, which brought him to this tree. One decked in signs, redirecting him in different directions. Too many in fact, that he happened to stay put and focus on the 'and' sign.
It was important. He could tell.

It isn't long before fouof heard... crying? Turning her head this way and that, the blonde mad hatter can't seem to find anyone who could be crying. Until she noticed the broken tree. She didn't know whether to laugh or to comfort it, instead opting for something that came naturally to her, which was staring.
Probably realizing it wasn't alone, the tree explained its plight and maybe because the tree was making such a pitiful sound as to be grating on her nerves, fouof tried to find the missing glasses. Or at least she tried to use that as excuse to actually get away.
