Andy nodded when her brother offered their cabin. She remembered she had almost slept in the Hades cabin before Demetri had joined them. Being alone in any of the cabins felt wrong. But especially the ones of the big three. They felt so hollow without someone else there. Andy didn't like being the cabin alone at any time of the day. "Also be warned that there is lightning and thunder in our cabin at random times. It is like Zeus is trying to keep us on our toes."

When the horn rang Andy was a little annoyed. She wanted to get started on gathering the things for Ash. But she let Leda grab her and carry her to the arena. Was Chiron going to make an announcement about Ash? Were they going to get an explanation for what happened? For why her best friend, her first best friend ever, had literally lost her head? Andy needed to know and everyone so far had avoided the question. How had Ash died? Why? She was more frustrated at not knowing than anything.

Andy listened to the directions they were given on what normally happened with a burial. She couldn't really sew but she could maybe draw the symbol on something. Andy thought of how Ash loved frills and ribbons and looking pretty. Things Andy had never paid attention to. Who had time? It also hadn't helped that she had only had regular access to a shower just now.

"Arthur will you help me draw Hades symbol on a cloth for her? I want to see if the Aphrodite kids have any ribbons they would be okay letting her have." Andy didn't care for the Aphrodite kids, not really. They were so different from her. Except for Mona of course. But she knew that Ash had made friends with some of them over clothes.

"Them." Rose corrected Sierra. She had been trying to wrap her brain around the fact that all three of them had the same letter. The bell dinged alerting Rose that Mab's food was ready. She grabbed it and headed over, as Sierra waved at Willow through the window.

"Sierra got the same letter." She said as she placed the plate in front of Mab. "This is too weird." She shook her head. They had to research it now. It couldn't just be some prank if three of them got the same letter. Rose had spent the last fifteen years trying to figure out who she was, but no one had had any answers. This might be legitimate.

Colby listened to the questions and answers flowing between Tinker and Mathew. It was wild. There were some fourteen people out there from a magical not-Disney fairy world. Fourteen. Did he know any of the others? Had he secretly been in school with them? Or lived with any of them? He didn't think of his roommates were adopted, but he couldn't be certain.

Colby certainly had a lot of questions, but so did Mathew and he was asking them like someone had forgotten the faucet. That let Colby just listen since he was asking questions Colby had too. "I'll go with you. Around town that is. To find the others. I'm curious." He meant to Arcadia too. Colby already knew that. This wasn't his world so if Tinker wasn't due for a long stint in Bedlam then the world she spoke of was his home.

Niah listened as Deadpool spoke. She could sort of agree with his naughty/nice list. How she ended up on the nice side was curious to her. The conversation with Wanda had put a few things into perspective for her. She had changed reality. Though she had saved a lot of lives in the process some had been lost forever.

"Rude." She was intrigued though. Why? Why take the stuff and put them on naughty and nice lists. And she was a bit tipsy. She looked at her plate of food. Her brain trying to wrap around the information. "How can I help Bonnie?"

Naughty list? Deadpool didn't even know his name. That stung a little. He started to move when Deadpool put their presents in his bag but he was too late. The guy was going back up the hole. Matt frowned, Niah was right that was rude. He turned to face the others irritation on his face. "What's your plan? Track his x-gene?"

This is something he was good at. He looked at Oliver who looked a little green and freaked out. Lab kids right. Okay, maybe Matt did belong on a naughty list. "I'll get my gear." Not that any guns would work against Deadpool. Which led to an interesting question. Could Matt's paralysis work on Deadpool?

Rose nodded at Mab as Sierra and her went into the break room. A little reassurance. Rose wasn't going to bring them into the conversation right away. She was going to start with her own stuff, test the waters with Sierra first, just to make sure she wasn't going to freak out about it or do something weird. The pair went into the break room. "Okay, so I got this super strange letter today." Rose started and pulled the slightly crumpled letter out of her pocket. "Which honestly I was just going to discount cause it sounds wild. My parents alive and well, but they never came for me? And I'm in some kind of danger."

Rose shook her head, it was crazy and if Mab hadn't gotten the same letter. Something about it had spooked Mab a lot too. Rose couldn't put her finger on it though. "And I know I'm not the only one who has gotten it." She didn't say who else had it, but Sierra might put the pieces together.

The Chesire Cat. Really? That was... Colby didn't have the words for what it was. Cause it felt right. It clicked. But it was absurd. It was the dumbest thing anyone had ever told him. He stared at the woman for a moment trying to figure out if she was pulling his leg. Was this some elaborate trick? She seemed sincere, or at least like she wasn't totally lying. He couldn't quite place his finger on it but she was hard to read.

"What decision?" He added after Mathew's questions. He was also trying to parse through what it meant that he and Mathew were from the same story. Was everyone that this Merlin guy was talking to from Alice in Wonderland? Their characters didn't know each other in any of the versions he had seen, but that didn't mean they didn't. Great, he was already thinking of himself as part of this story and as the Chesire Cat.

Wait...he was literally a cat then? A dozen more questions bounced around his head and he wanted to ask them all but refrained. It wasn't hard to tell Tinker was getting annoyed at their questions.

And nodded at Tammy. She wanted to do what was necessary to lay her friend to rest. Andy had been tossed into a new world with new rules and she had no idea how to navigate it. It was time to learn. No more taking it slow and settling into it all. Everyone had an advantage over her. She hadn't had a formal education in years and because of that was far behind in everything.

She stood up and dusted herself off. Determination was drawn deeply on her soft features. "What do we need to know?" She asked, both Leda and Tammy. She trusted Leda's knowledge. Later she wanted to talk to Arthur privately. She wanted to let him know her plan. That could wait though, until after they buried their friend. Still, no one had answered what had happened to her and Andy was determined to learn what it was and get revenge for Ash. Perhaps Arthur would help with that as well.

Oh, there was some drinking to be had this round Niah thought as she took two sips and then a smaller third one at the mention of alternate worlds and timelines. Then a drink at the mention of setting stuff of fire. She fondly remembered the experiment gone wrong in her high school chem lab. She had gotten into a lot of trouble over that, but at least the building hadn't burned down. She skipped sipping at the skinny dipping one from Sparky but rolled her eyes at Flynn's as she took a sip. She was not taking one for each class she had been in.

"I know one that'll get a few of us. Never have I ever almost died." Niah said taking a drink. She smiled at Tempest, thankful for her having saved her life. Though of course, that hadn't been the only close call for the forensic scientist. "And with that I'm going to eat some food before this gets too my head too much. Espeically after Bonnie's." Niah went over to the spread of food and nodded at Roman. She was glad he was on the team again, but she didn't understand why he wasn't participating at all. "Come on Roman you've got to drink for the Ultron thing at least." She told him as she served herself a bit of food.

There was a loud crash and a guy in a red suit was standing there. She blinked confused. That wasn't Santa that was for certain. And Raynor called him Deadpool?

"Good to know, Maria." Matt said to Maria. He felt it would be weird to say sorry so he didn't, but made a mental note so he wouldn't call her by her last name again.

Matt didn't drink at the alternate reality comment, but he did for skinny dipping and lighting stuff on fire. Remembering a few bonfires that got out of hand. He also didn't drink for the Sci-tech mention, but he did for Niah's almost dead. It hadn't been that bad, but it was a close enough call. And of course, the whole mist thing could have killed him. Not everyone survived the process.

He hadn't done a 'never have I ever' yet either and was trying to come up with a good one that he suspected most of the crew would have done. Before he could though a dude dressed as Santa came tumbling down the chimney. He blinked a bit confused. Matt knew this team had seen some crazy stuff, hell that was why he had requested to be on their team. This was weird for certain.

"It is about my birth parents. I might have found a lead." Rose figured that was vague enough and kept Mab out of it, for now. She smiled at Willow. "Willow trees are one of my favorites, so I love your name too, but no I'm not a student. Never quite cared for the atmosphere of school." Rose loved all trees, and she would only put Oak before Willow though. Willow trees were important because of their medicinal properties too. She didn't know how to tell the girl 'no offense though but I don't know you and this is sort of personal'.

"If you don't mind Sierra before you leave I show you something." She paused, "Or later today. We can meet up after I get off this shift. I don't know what your schedule looks like today sorry." Yep, of course, Rose tried to save face for everyone involved and honestly probably made Willow uncomfortable. What Rose wanted to do though was keep Mab out of it for now. At least until Rose had talked to Sierra alone about her own letter.

Merlin, fairies...? Disney is right but fairy tales are real? Colby's mind reeled at that information. He wanted to demand to see this Merlin as well. He wanted to know what sick joke this all was. How was he connected to fairy tales? "You're telling me someone named Merlin wrote us a letter. Knows who our parents are. You're a fairy and somehow...somehow out of all of that I'm supposed to just accept that and wander off down a dark ally with you?" He shook his head. She thought flashing her wings would convince him? He knew enough stage magic tricks she could be easily doing something with lights and costume.

"If that is true who are my birth parents then? Where am I from?" That was the true question that burned in Colby's heart. Where was he from? He had never felt like he fit. Like a puzzle piece that was too big for board. And he hated it. He hated his own skin. He understood Mathew more now, felt a weird kindred-ship with him. They were both puzzle pieces from a different puzzle. It explained so much. As much as he wanted to go with the woman known as Tinker (bell? WAS HE TALKING TO TINKER BELL?), he didn't trust any of this. It was too easy, too good to be true.

Andy

Andy was horrified. She normally was when the skeletons Ash raised were walking around. This was worse. A scream died in her throat and she stared at the literal walking corpse of her best friend. She had no idea what to do. Everything was wrong and askew. Leda waved for Andy to join the hug and she instinctively did. Leaning into the older camper she had been looking up to and learning from.

How odd that not even an hour ago Andy had been proud of her memory and wanted to tell Leda, and now that didn't matter. Not one bit. The headless corpse put things into perspective. Andy had considered running away from camp. Considered leaving and forgetting this place. But she knew how dangerous it was outside the barriers of the camp. Even if this happened within she was safer here. And she was determined, as she looked at Ash's still body, that she would never need help.

"Nice to meet you Oliver, you won't see much of me. I'm no longer on the team. I requested being put in a lab for a while. As for Raynor, that's mostly par for the course. He's hot-headed." Not that he was the only one on the team who was that way. Oliver seemed nice and it was likely he would learn quickly that the team had a whole host of issues. A lot of those were trust issues.

Niah had no desire to sit on Raynor's lap, no matter if it was good luck or not. She did look over at the tree and the barking gift. That wasn't normal, especially for a Secret Santa type situation. Since she though Roman had dropped off the gift she really hoped it was actually a robot.

Niah didn't drink, for either 'never have I ever'. The only sort of serious relationship she had had was with Antonie... She let that thought trail away not wanting to dwell on it. Especially since it was Christmas. Niah did smile at Tinley though as neither took a drink.

Niah then edged her way over to Bonnie. "I have something for you later." She whispered in her friend's ear and held up the bag in her hand. "But I'd like to give it to you in private since you're the only person I got a present for outside of secret Santa gifts."

Matthew was concerned about the barking package under the tree and wondered why Roman stood so awkwardly in the corner. If he wanted to be part of the team wasn't the best way to participate in team-building exercises just like this one. "I've never given a pet, though my parents did give me one when I was a kid. But I had asked for it. It seems like an awkward gift to give. Especially for a secret Santa." Matthew said, mostly responding to Raynor.

"Thank you, Agent Smith." Matthew said to Maria when she explained the game. He could tell she was surprised that he didn't know the rules but thankful she didn't ask him why he didn't. Matthew didn't drink for the first round, but he took a sip for the second with a small grimace. His ex-fiance. But he had been so happy with his body and the t-shots had begun changing things. It was a photo from a happy simple time.
