informal poll for you guys. if you had to choose, is this place more like:

a) fantasia, from the neverending story
b) oz, from the wizard of oz
c) wherever the hell it was with the muppets and stuff, from labyrinth
d) wonderland, from alice in wonderland

[ The question might seem like a frivolous one, but the answers should actually be pretty informative, and it's way more fun than just asking people to describe what this place is really like. ]

This is my second alternate reality experience. We had to move cuz our original universe blew up or something.

[franciscoramon]

[supersweet]

Yeah. I don't remember much, but it was hard on my parents.

[franciscoramon]

my parents had to move somewhere new, too, before they had me
i mean it was only a new country not a whole new dimension, but it was hard on them
are you parents here? there's... someone looking after you, right?

[ If this place has a school it must have some equivalent of child services, right? ]

[supersweet]

A version of them, yeah. Plus I've got a case worker.

[ That sounds like ten different kind of complicated. ]
