Right there in the middle of the hall. But every ones trying so hard to be fill it in. You can see they're hurt though, and more than a bit broken.

WELCOME TO WONDERLAND. "We're all mad here, darling. You are too, or else you wouldn't have come here." He wraps his arms around me, holding me close as everything spins out of control. Glitter bleeding out of his eyes, seeping and glistening beneath the orange lights. "I feel like I'm in a dream. When will I wake up? I'll be okay once I wake up, right?" "You won't wake up, Dev," he whispers into my ear. "You never fell asleep." β You are not dreaming. Devon Taylor enters Wonderland. In no time she falls down the rabbit hole, becoming woven into the chaos and madness that goes on behind closed doors. Her world is turned upside down; sense of time, sense of self, and any normalcy she once knew going out the window. The Hatter guides her through the haze, showing her nothing is as it seems. He himself, is not as he seems. Everything seems so perfect, but eventually it's time to wake up. It's time to go back, but time is not on your side. The clock is ticking.

A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc)
A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancΓ© left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.Complete
