AU Thursday: Smiler's Otherland -- Not-Incorrect Quotes Collection!
Because you know me and these by now XD
--
Alice: [taking Victor and Smiler on a tour of the Vale of Tears] All right, next we're heading to the Duchess's house -- not particularly because I want you two to meet her, but because the path provides some perfect opportunities for you to practice your jumping and --
Insidious Ruin: [bubbles up out of the ground in front of them, squealing and screeching]
Alice: Oh damn it. [pulls her Vorpal Blade, motioning for Victor and Smiler to hang back] You two get behind me, I'll --
Smiler: Hang on, let me try mine! [pulls out the Inoculator and hits the Ruin with a stream of bright yellow liquid]
Ruin: [stops in its tracks, blinking and dripping yellow] ...
Ruin: [lurches forward again and, with a happy noise, grabs Alice around the legs in a hug]
Alice: [jerking backward] What the --
Smiler: [grinning] Aww, it loves you!
Alice: [desperately stabbing it in the head] I DON'T WANT IT TO LOVE ME
--
Alice: [looking around Smile Street and seeing a familiar swirly-eyed grin everywhere -- painted on houses, trimmed into bushes, on people's clothing] ...
Alice: [looks up and spots the same smile on the freaking sun itself]
Alice: [taps Smiler on the shoulder and jerks her head toward it] Really?
Smiler: [gives her a look] You're giving me that when you have all those statues of yourself scattered around the Vale of Tears?
Victor: [raising a hand] If we're having a narcissism contest, my Otherland is almost entirely populated by copies of myself.
Alice: [pause] ...that is pretty bad.
Smiler: Yeah, I think you have to win that contest.
Victor: Hey!
--
Alice: [climbing aboard the SS Gryphon] Mock Turtle? Are you here?
Mock: [popping out of the captain's cabin with a giant grin] Hi Alice! Great to see you! Isn't it such a spectacular day?
Alice:
Alice: [peering around them suspiciously] Smiler? Did you use the Inoculator on Mock?!
Smiler: [calling from the cabin] He asked me to!
--
Victor: [standing with Smiler and Alice in front of Mr. Explorer's treehouse in the Butterfly Jungle] And this is Smiler! Which you might already know, but we wanted to introduce you properly.
Smiler: [beaming] Great to meet you!
Mr. Explorer: [looks Smiler up and down, focusing on the yellow-and-black-spiral-pattern waistcoat under their jacket] Oooooh! You're the reason for them!
Smiler: ?
Alice: Beg pardon?
Mr. Explorer: Just a moment! [hurries away into the undergrowth, and returns with a butterfly -- sporting yellow-and-black spiral-patterned wings] They showed up a little while ago! They're really sweet, and all the other butterflies really seem to like watching them flap around.
Alice: [lightly nudging Victor] Gee, I wonder why.
Victor: [nudging her back, whispering while slightly pink] Let's not corrupt my inner child.
--
Alice: [standing beside one of the swirly portals from the first game, now set into a rock in the new and improved Vale of Tears] And so these allow me to travel between various locations nearly instantaneously, instead of having to rely on the rail line.
Smiler: [grinning at the portal] Oh, that is neat! And they look so cool too -- don't you think so, Victor?
Victor: [staring at the portal, doesn't reply]
Smiler: ...Victor?
Alice: Victor! [snaps her fingers in front of his nose]
Victor: [starts, blinks rapidly, blushes despite himself] Oh, uh, ah, t-they're -- they're very -- n-nice.
Smiler: [slowly growing predatory smile] Oh, are they now...
Alice: [also grinning] Perhaps we could use one to find a slightly more private spot for you to stare?
Victor: [going even deeper pink] Shut up.
--
[the trio are watching two Inoculated Menacing Ruin throw fireballs at a very confused Colossal Ruin in the Dollhouse]
Alice: [to Smiler, as the Colossal Ruin tries to run away, only for one of the Menacing Ruins to slam into its side] I've changed my mind, your weapons are great.
