Regarding the Timeline

[Slurpeez]

😡 Adam, way to needlessly confuse everyone and send the entire fandom into a crazed head-scratching! Has anyone asked for further clarification? I don’t have twitter, otherwise I’d volunteer. Basically, the question needs to be worded carefully.

Are Alice and the Darlings from the SAME world, Fictional England? Or are the Darlings from OUR world at the turn of the 20th century?

Please, someone with twitter ask this question for me and I’ll give you a million virtual cookies.

I just copy and pasted that to Adam. We’ll see.

Thanks so much, RG! I’m showering you will virtual cookies! 😀 I hope he responds. 🙂

I think we have received our confirmation. Adam says the Darlings and Alice are NOT from the same world (even though Eddy had said they were). Adam said Eddy misspoke. That means the Darlings are from our world, the real 19th century London, whereas Alice is from some alternate universe (i.e fictional Victorian England) that exists concurrently with our world.

I was literally just about to post this, Slurpeez.

So Fictional London = Alice
Real London = Darlings.

Magic.

Well, at least that confusion has been cleared up (a bit), but I still think Adam and Eddy aren’t quite agreed on this issue. So, is the matter truly closed? What happens when the co-creaters disagree? NO idea!

Is this official enough?

[Slurpeez]

Thank you for that follow-up! I will consider case closed (for now). 🙂

I’ve already expected that Alice is from another world. It’s the only way that it makes sense.

Now I wonder how this world is called and who else does live there. Maybe Dorian Gray or Oliver Twist….

I told you guys the answer would be “magic!” *laughs hysterically for several seconds and goes in search of chocolate*
