Wild West Town

From Jenny Everywhere Wiki

Wild West Town was a Wild-West-themed area of the pocket dimension inside Madame Tarsa's Toybox.

Nature

Wild West Town could be access through a door at the end of a long corridor within the Toymaker's Labyrinth. The doorway was located some way into the air, with one falling down in the middle of the Town when tumbling through the door; this made it difficult, though not impossible, for inhabitants of the Town to leave and explore other parts of the Toybox. (PROSE: The Toymaker's Labyrinth)

Inhabited by some of Madame Tarsa's living toys, the buildings, resembling “saloons and the like”, were actually plastic dollhouses. Likewise, the sand-covered ground was actually a huge, themed play mat. The town had a small toy frog as a Mayor, (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker) a marionette sheriff, and the Plush Posse for trouble-making outlaws. All horses in the Town were living rocking-horses, which left long trails instead of hoof marks, although they somehow emitted hoof-clattering sounds when they “galloped”.

The Posse believed that a train going out of town would take them to “the big city”, though whether this city actually existed was something Larrikin-1029 and Pessimist-242 did not care to follow them to find out. (PROSE: The Toymaker's Labyrinth)

History

Larrikin-1029 and Pessimist-242 ended up in Wild West Town when first making their way through the Toymaker's Labyrinth. They were briefly mistaken for new members of the Plush Posse by the Sheriff. After the real outlaws made their escape, pursued by the Sheriff, the two Cupids spoke with the Frog Mayor about the possibility of staying in town indefinitely, since the door was too high for them to go through again. However, after a few minutes' conversation with them, the Mayor came to believe that they were too annoying to keep around, as they might drive the population of the Town into the desert just to avoid them. As a result, the Mayor went back on his prior claim that he knew nothing of the world beyond the desert and fetched them a ladder so they could go back through the door.

Juliet-178, Arganthone-056 and Jenny Everywhere visited Wild West Town in December 2020 when looking for a way to unfreeze Madame Tarsa in time for Christmas. They found the Town decorated with blinking Christmas lights and a huge papercraft of a Christmas tree tied to the Town Hall. The Frog Mayor did not know a solution himself, but gave them directions to Christmas Toyland where he thought they might find the oldest toy in the Toybox, in whom Tarsa may have confided helpful secrets.
