"Now, you know I don't know what that is..." Will started, before Shari plunged her head in.
Shari's head passed through the surface, far deeper than it should have been allowed simply due to physics -- whatever internal dimensions Will had, it certainly wasn't limited by the physical space the mirror occupied. Below her -- fairly far down below, honestly -- she could make out...well, a whole world. A city, an industrial complex, some kind of nature preserve. A vast landscape, stretching as far as the eye could see.
It was below her, though, so there was always the possibility of falling in. It looked like there was some kind of --- slide? Ramp? Something, that would allow her to go down, but this was a rabbit hole that it may not be easy to climb out of.
The frame of the mirror, as it were, was sort of...floating in the air. If Shari craned her neck to look back over her shoulder, she could see the room behind her, with Will standing there. And if she looked too hard, she could start to experience some phantom sensations, as if she was the one looking back into the mirror. And not just of being Will, standing there looking in, but of the carpet being trod on, the lightbulb glowing in the socket, the television plugged into the wall. All simultaneous and perhaps a bit overwhelming if one stared at it too long.
