 		... and so the Queen of Hearts lived happily ever after with the Cheshire Cat!
Have we missed anyone out?

 		aaahhhh indeed....

do you suppose Hattie could wake from her coma now?


OOG but on 5th May there's some sort of Mad Hatters tea party in the Cowley road area... neat coincidence. Smile

 		I wondered if she would wake up, but I don't think she will until everyone can leave the mirror, or until our world becomes the mirror world......

Alice (in Treacle and Ink) wrote:
Stepping back, I swung the hammer wildly – Jacques had to duck out of the way, and then hurled it straight at the mirror.
And it hit. And the surface of the mirror shimmered. And then, I could see, in the reflection of the room, the hammer lying on the reflected floor. The hammer had gone through the mirror. And I don't know how it can ever be destroyed.



Now that the hammer is in the mirror world, might it become the hammer from stories in Norse Mythology, referenced in Mythological Objects? I think I first had this idea when Dorcas appeared on the scene with a hammer, but now we know more about the story world I am wondering if it can have an effect on objects.

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=24595&highlight=hammer+thors&start=594

wikipedia: In Norse mythology, Odin's spear Gungnir is an embodiment of lightning. In addition, his son, Thor is specifically the god of thunder and lightning, wielding Mjolnir.

A reference to Thor? END EDIT


It may still play a role in the ultimate destruction of the mirror if Thomas and Hattie can get hold of it from the other side (or Alice goes into the mirror world).


Or it might just be a hammer. Mr. Green

 		Nice thought on the Hammer! ( Oh dear, I capitalised it. That means I'm going to obsess over it tomorrow. Sad )

Wot? No 6am?

Laughing Laughing Laughing

Nite nite Cabbage.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

EDIT: Nah, nothing of use that I can come up with on the hammer. It is supposed to come back to the thrower, and never misses it's target, but that's about it.

so it would be perfect for smashing the mirror then wouldn't it? After all normal hammers can't smash it.

EDIT: So we know know he's got the Path of Synergy, but if he's found his queen and love does he also get other cards? and does he need them? and do we need to do anything else or are we just waiting for the final denoument?

 		I reckon that TMA and Hattie will be able to get the mirror-image hammer and smash the mirror from their side, but then be stuck in the mirror world forever, but that's OK because they have each other, cue bluebirds and rainbows, etc. etc.

I'm guessing we've had it in that final T&I / A.L.I.C.E. post and they've paid the writers already.

If so, not so much a 'Big Bang' ending, unless we're meant to write it ourselves.

 		I think that it ain't over yet. Make that the 8th of May for the big climax. Lots of kloos in new Treacle and Ink update.


Oooh, kryptic kloos:

Re: real names for the brothers. Have hidden them in a book.

Need my own faithful representation of Coprinus' hat.

Got garbled OK from inheritor; nothing missing.

I may have to ask you to do some running-around at the start of next week
sounds like you Londoners may have another live event? or maybe not an event, but tasks at least.

EDIT : Coprinus is a type of mushroom

EDIT 2: See where you're coming from Cabbage, however this seems more promising:
Quote:
Coprinus comatus, the shaggy ink cap, lawyer's wig, or shaggy mane


EDIT III: So:
Re: real names for the brothers. Have hidden them in a book. >>> Got to be in one of the books we'll be running around to find
Need my own faithful representation of Coprinus' hat. >>> see above
Got garbled OK from inheritor; nothing missing. >>> ?? the person who received the books said they were all there ??? Confused
3,6,2,3 >>>great I'm rubbish at crosswords
