“Why don’t you just pull it out of a hat?” Zoi said from above, grinning from ear to ear. She had been on her way to her quarters to meet Dira, but had heard the loud queen and decided to lay in wait as she walked through the promenade. She lazily balanced herself on the railing of the walkway overhanging the promenade. She on her stomach, head cradled in her hand, bent at the elbow and propped on the railing. Both legs were bent at the knee, feet crossed at the ankle and reading for the ceiling.Haven, Cheshire Cat
OOC: I just want to say that I find this image hysterical. :D
-JamieWillow looked at the new apparition and seemed to be a mix of confused and outraged. Her lips pursed and her cheeks went a funny shade of purple then red then back to flesh tones, leaving her looking washed out.
”What, ” she said in a clipped tone eyeing the woman before her. ”do you mean by that…who are you speak your business!” she declared.
Me a while the NEs who had cleared some space we’re busy setting up a croquette set.
Willow Taylor
Queen“Who Are You?” Zoi seemed to contemplate this question as her feet, crossed at the ankles tipped forward and backward idly. She didn’t look as though she cared about the enraged queen. One of her hands moved from under her chin and tapped each finger upon the bannister on which she perched in succession. thrrrrum, thrrrrum, thrrrrum “That’s not really my balliwick. Try again your highness.”
Her tone was uncaring and flippant, playful even. If only there was a certain caterpillar nearby. He might take offense at the queens question.

Willow looked annoyed and glared at the newcomer. ”what business do you have in my court!” she demanded her tone slightly shrill and her cheeks colouring a deep red colour. She flicked her fan open and waved it with a little more force than was necessary.
Zoi watched in fascination as the Captain got more and more flustered. She grinned wider.
Then as if she had realised her actions she raised her eyebrows and looked at her jam covered companion and poor infected Zoi. ”Tell me do you play croquet?”
Willow Taylor
COthrrrum thrrrrum thr.. “Croquet? I suppose I could but Duvosa is the better companion for that, highness. Besides, I don’t know that I will like your version of the game.” She seemed quite content to stay where she was above the group and poking the Captain with words.
Haven, CoS
The hitherto passive Ralin was on his feet within an instant of Zoi’s words. His arm was outstretched up towards her, tightly clutching and pointing at her an imagined sabre. “You insult your Queen’s tase in Crrrroquet?” he barfed.
Ralin Tell - Three of Clubs
Wearing her rebreather and aerosol in hand Alexis proceeded back to the Promenade. It appeared that there were some new characters to appear but nothing had gotten worse, Except for maybe Queen Taylor’s temper. She approached from the front and bowed low. “Ah your majesty! I bring news of my hunt, as promised.” She slid the rebreather down momentarily to show her face and then replaced. Before the “queen” could question, “I must stay in disguise, majesty. I am close to capturing my prey. May we talk?” If she could get close enough she could use the aerosol on the captain and those around her. She would work it into her story. She had to decide on a song though.
Lt. Bonner, AMOTell was frozen in place, having shifted to face off against Bonner in an imagined en garde position.
Ralin Tell - Three of Clubs
OOC: I am waiting to give Cale a chance to respond when she gets feeling better.
GM Wombat
Willow frowned as Alexis approached, she hefted her croquet mallet and stared at the huntress. “Tell me” she said, her eyes narrowing as if she suspected something was amiss. She did not lower the mallet.
Willow Taylor
CO“I come to tell you the tale of Beowulf and Grendel. Grendel is a horrific beast, and has the ability to disguise himself. This,” she holds up the aerosol can, “Is a compound that will force him to show himself. I simply must spray it in the air. If you will allow me, Majesty,” she bows, “I shall spread it through the air to ensure this most evil of monsters is not here among your court, and if he is I shall dispatch him immediately.” Alexis finds this whole thing absurd. And despite herself, she wishes she had Ever out here with her. But she maintains her story of being ‘The Huntress.’ Again Alexis begins to sing telling the tale of Beowulf and Grendel for the most blood thirsty queen. (OOC: Okay so I don’t really like this version, but most of the other good ones out there are not appropriate. So....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdhDj8aFzrA)
Willow listened to the story and still looking suspicious nodded her head once. This was all the allowance that Alexis would get.
If the captain/queen should allow her, Alexis will begin spraying the medicine into the air. Starting near the captain and moving around trying to get as close as possible to the other officers affected by the fungal infection.
If not, Alexis will attempt to convince her.
Lt. Bonner, AMOAs the mist enveloped her Willow put her hand to her throat and coughed. She glared at Alexis. ”Sabotage!!” she yelled and dropped to her knees as she continued to cough. Her mind whirring as she struggled to keep sense of herself, she was the queen…the Queen! All must now bow before her but then…no…she was....the Queen…
Alexis wasn’t expecting that, and of course the ‘cards’ were everywhere. Her only weapon of course was the aerosol that she sprayed into the face of everyone who came near her.
Coughing subsiding Willow looked up and around her, confusion crossing her features. She blinked and straightening frowned at Alexis, ”Who are you?” she asked. ”Where am I?....” she looked down and suddenly looked aghast. Her cheeks flooded with colour ”What the hell am I wearing!?”
Willow Taylor
Queen no more
Alexis whispered, “Cpt. Taylor, it would really help if you would pretend to be ‘the queen of hearts’ and tell the cards to stop attacking me.” She tagged another NE card and turned back to the captain. “I’m Lt. Bonner, Cpt. Taylor, the new AMO. Almost the entirety of the station has been infected with a hallucinatory fungus. You apparently thought you were the Queen of Hearts from Alice through the Looking Glass. And this is your court. The medical and engineering teams should have the compound pumping through the ventilation system soon. But we wanted to get to you first.” Alexis looked around for anymore of the ‘queens’ devoted.
