I almost posted/wrote an Alice in Wonderland story....or fanfic...But I deleted it before I finished it because I didn't like it...
It was about one of Alice's cats that didn't turn into something in Through the Looking Glass somehow got into Wonderland and was searching for Alice when she realized that Alice wasn't in Wonderland, she couldn't go back to Wonderland, either, and so Alice's cat as alone. But was soon to become the Alice that everyone is familiar with. The Alice who everyone worships.
Yeahh, I've read a TON of manga and other stories based off of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I've noticed a trend. A lot of it has to do with the most important character being Alice, or Alice being the most important person in Wonderland and that everyone bows down to her and what-not. Well, she was never worshiped or anything like that. She was more of a nuisance or a new friend or just somebody who was there in Wonderland to the other characters. I don't even think the Mad Hatter liked her, or the March Hare. Because they just got really annoyed by her and kept criticizing her (actually, that's what I just thought the tea party was like).
Why do you think she kept wanting to go home the entire time? Because everybody annoyed her and they seemed irritated at her, and she just wanted to get out of all that and have life go back to normal. Then in Through the Looking Glass...she becomes Queen, but that doesn't mean anybody worships her that much. Well, they'll respect her like a Queen, but they don't love her or anything like they seem to do in a ton of manga that I've read.
And I'm tired of this Alice thing being so super important when it's just like if it were you and you suddenly found yourself in a country you've never heard of and you don't understand anything there. It's exactly like that. Alice was the foreigner to Wonderland, and it's not like she owns it or anything. And she only became Queen because she got to the end of the chess board and became Queen because she was a Pawn, just like in Chess. What I don't understand is why people keep putting WAAAY more meaning into the book than I think the author put in it.
Well, some things in there were probably pointing out to different things, but you could probably tell. But I don't think it had anything to do with each other, and it was all very random with no moral or anything.
I don't like it when people think too much about a book and come up with a completely random poetic thing that had to do with it. Liike if I were to say that Alice's Wonderland was like the reflection of Alice's life from her childish perspective. No it wasn't. I don't even think Lewis Caroll thought that much about kids' minds. If he did I think there would be some good evidence of that.
It's nonsense literature. It's not supposed to fit together.
And that's the end of my rant...XD
I've been wanting to practice my colouring, as you have seen. But it's not working...>.> I can't come up with any good pictures to colour...It's really annoying me.
And from my last posts I've been looking at a lot of H!P things. Well, I just noticed some things:
Tsuji and Saki have gotten a LOT prettier. I guess they've grown up more...I've never really thought about girls who've grown from 16-20 (not that Saki is 20, yet, she's only 19...but one year away). So...maybe I should adjust some of my characters...>.> Seriously, I never thought that girls would change from when they were like 16 to when they were 20 except that they might get taller or something. But their faces change.
Miyabi looks different, too:
I think her face has gotten longer...I wouldn't say she looks prettier, though...not as much as Saki and Tsuji.
Now...I should go compare more pictures...I've never noticed this...O.o
