What's this necklace Alistair has? It looks like it might have something in it. Something from his mother, perhaps?

[mrshobbit]

The mirror world in whole cake island arc is really reminding me of the mirror world from ever after high

[teruwasright]

Ok- I have a question when it comes to Darling- is she considered a Wonderlandian? She seems to be the White Night from Through The Looking Glass soooo- is she?

I'm not sure. I've been thinking about it all week and figured I'd ask the EAH people on Tumblr- so give me your thoughts guys lol

[egophiliac]

So you know of other fairytale-theme school medias?

oh yeah, there's a few! the one I was thinking of specifically was Ever After High; I was mostly into the dolls, but I also really liked the webseries and the Shannon Hale novels! Apple was my definitely my favorite. 🍎

[sp00ky-scary]

forgot to post these here

these are already a little outdated but like they're still cute, also Cerise was supposed to have one of those like furry hats with ears and the rly long side things, idk what they're called but I couldn't figure out how to draw it, I think she wears one of those or just has her hood up 90% of the time

I like your headcanon!

Have any theories related to that? Could be related to any other headcanons you might have :)

Well, I have a lot of headcanons related to Alice of Wonderland. She never actually appears in Ever After High, so I've imagined a lot of things about her.

So, first of all, her name is Alison. Alice isn't her name; Alice is her title. It is a title respected and awed in Wonderland, but still only a title. All the Alices have been this way. Alison is Alice, but she won't have anyone call her that. For instance, she'll introduce herself as "Alison, the Alice." Or, for formal occasions, "who bears the honored and revered name of Alice."

Which should show you how the Alices-"the Alice line," and even their relatives-are treated in Wonderland. They are respected, honored, treated with the utmost courtesy. An Alice's word is all but law.

The Alices-Wonderland in general-have never really been so into the whole "follow your destiny" thing. They do it, but they do it for Wonderland. Wonderland is not Ever After. They repeat their story because it's good for Wonderland, not because of the Storybook of Legends, and not because of Milton Grimm (whose popularity in Wonderland sunk drastically after he made the decision to seal it off). One way Wonderland is different from Ever After in destiny is the characters keeping their own names even after they've each fulfilled their respective destinies. Alice is Alison, of course, but Maddie's father is Maddigan Hatter and Kitty's mother is Katrina, and so on and so forth. They are all still called those by their families and friends. Their role is only ever their title.

Every Alice has a connection to Wonderland, far more than other Wonderlandians, even more than the other characters in the Alice tales, more so even than the Queen of Hearts-even the Alices that are half Ever Afterling, as they so often are. Each Alice can sense Wonderland, in a way. Can control it, even. For instance, if Alistair would ever be lost in a forest in Wonderland, the plants and shrubbery and even the trees themselves would simply bend out of their ways, creating a path for Alistair to walk on to safety. But, of course, this would never happen, because an Alice cannot get lost in Wonderland. And it is said that whenever an Alice dies, there is a part of Wonderland that fades and withers-even more so, more widespread, if the death was sudden, violent, unnatural.

(This will all be relevant to your question later on. Really.)

Now, onto the headcanon you specifically asked about: the one about Alison, Alistair's mother, having been missing for several years, since the beginning of the curse.

What happened to her?

One idea I have is that the Evil Queen killed her, early in her attempted takeover of Wonderland.

What is Alice? Alice is Wonderland. Alice represents Wonderland. What is the first thing you think of when you hear the name "Wonderland?" Alice, of course.

Kill Alice, and you have all but defeated Wonderland, in spirit at least, and definitely symbolically.

And that is why Alistair (canonically) panics whenever he sees Raven. He knows she isn't her mother, but she looks just like her, and whenever he sees her he thinks of his mother, and her death.

Another idea I have is that Headmaster Grimm killed her. I'm not quite sure why, though.

Perhaps he saw Alison as a threat. Wonderland, after all, has never fully aligned itself with Ever After. Alison and the other Wonderlandians even kept their own names after completing their destinies-a subtle but distinct rebellion against the status quo.

If Wonderland was ever hostile to Ever After, Ever After wouldn't stand a chance. Note how Grimm was the one who first had the idea to seal off Wonderland due to its curse, despite the curse only affecting Wonderland magic. (I think.) And also how he took advantage of the Wonderland curse to have three of the escapees, including the future Queen of Hearts, attend his school, as well as hire the White Queen as a teacher. He only ever wants everything to be under his control.

I might be making most of that up, though.

My point is, he was afraid of what Wonderland might become if left unchecked. He was afraid of the power Alison, the Alice, wielded. Perhaps there had been more going on between them than was thought; perhaps they had been arguing about the power destiny wielded in Ever After. Whatever it was, the result was the same.

This made more sense in my head.

But in this headcanon, if Milton Grimm did kill her, Alistair doesn't know this. All he knows is that his mother disappeared when he was seven or nine, and he's been living with the Mad Hatter ever since.

But when the truth is found out, well, Alistair is horrified and furious that he was living in the same building and attending a school run by his mother's murderer, and never realized the truth. The other Wonderlandians feel the same-Maddie, Kitty, and Lizzie attended Ever After High for years. He was technically the White Queen's employer.

They all immediately return to Wonderland, with no explanation. Wonderland declares war by the end of the week.

Another idea I have is that Alison is somehow lost in the Monster High universe. I have no idea how. I'm not very familiar with Monster High. I just like to imagine the characters meeting each other.

Basically, Wonderland is always there, somewhere in the universe. (Multiverse?) Wonderland can always be found, if you know where to look, or fall down a rabbit hole. The idea of Wonderland is known, everywhere.

But the curse damaged the essence of Wonderland. And Alison sort of fell through a crack in Wonderland and ended up in the Monster High world.

Another idea is that Evil Queen deliberately infected Alison with her curse. Alison was the first one to fall victim to it. In fact, that's how it started; it spread from her to all of Wonderland. The Evil Queen did this for the same reason I mentioned above: Defeat Alice, and you have defeated Wonderland. Alison either eventually died from the curse, or is still alive but has isolated herself from others, to prevent herself from infecting others with the curse.

Even after Raven undoes Wonderland's curse, it still remains in Alison. The curse is stronger, more virulent, more twisted, in a human being. In the first thing it infects. In Wonderland, because the Evil Queen's magic went all wrong in Wonderland, as the Pied Piper noted to Alistair that time, which is why Wonderland had to be sealed off.

Another idea. So, all the Alices are connected to Wonderland. Like, their very essence is part of Wonderland.

So what happens when Wonderland is cursed and sickened? It affects the Alice, too.

It affected Alison, not Alistair, since Alistair was not yet the Alice; he will only be the Alice when his mother dies or he fulfills his destiny. And so it was Alison, the Alice, mother of Alistair, who went a little mad.

Not the kind of mad that all Wonderlandians are. The kind of mad where she couldn't quite remember who she was, or where she was from, or what she was doing, or even her son - who in all these headcanons she loves more than anything. And all of her impressions, her thoughts, her vast knowledge of Wonderland got mixed up. And so she wanders Wonderland, not lost, but not found either. Wonderland watches out for her, its Alice, and no harm has or will come to her. But not even the undoing of Wonderland's curse healed her, because a curse as deep, as damaging, as intertwined with the essence of Wonderland as this one became is hard to undo completely; while Wonderland may be healed on the surface, Alice is Wonderland, and the curse penetrated deep.

.....This definitely made more sense in my head.

Child of Sleeping Beauty, Silver Rose. Almost always found asleep. His collection of (clumsily) embroidered clothing has worried many of his peers, but he insists he didn't make them. He'll tell you he is a Royal, albeit with a bit of...hesitation.

i had soooo much trouble with silver 😭 his outfit stressed me out so much from the skirt thing to the shoes to his backpack...in the end, i think he turned out pretty nice 🥹 also yeah that's a neck pillow hoodie in case he falls asleep with his head tilting backwards #alwaysprepared
