The journey to meet Vanessa had been quick, uneventful. He took the time to study the surroundings he passed, comparing them to things back home and even the few other, strange things he had seen so far in Wonderland. He was curious as to the kinds of things he'd find in this place while exploring with her.

"Yo!" Takeshi called happily in greeting as he approached, lifting his hand to wave to her as she came into view. "I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long," he wondered, lowering his hand to push it into his pocket. He slowed to a smooth halt just shy of arm's length of the other, lips pulled into a pleasant grin.

"Hi," Vanessa replied to his greeting, tossing the boy a small smile as he approached. She shook her head. "Oh, no. Don't worry about it. I couldn't have been here more than a few minutes at most." Or had she been standing out here longer? She couldn't really remember since she had been distracted by her reverie.

"So." The blond flashed him an even brighter smile, trying to feel a little bit more comfortable. These people were all strangers to her, despite how friendly they seemed to be at the moment. "Are you ready to look around?"

Takeshi offered a nod in response, clearly relieved to know he hadn't kept her waiting.

"Ah, whenever you're ready, Vanessa," he reassured, lifting his hands to lightly turn the ring on his finger. He returned the smile easily, though, as if the whole of the situation were completely familiar to him. He didn't seem bothered by the fact that they were stranger - if they were all stuck here, they'd get to know one another sooner or later, wouldn't they?

In one way or another, the people brought to Wonderland would get to know one another, but whether it would be on a friendly level or in battle... Maybe that was what didn't sit right with Vanessa. Becoming friendly with the people who could actually, potentially, be the enemy. It wasn't like she hadn't done it before, though.

"Oh. I'm ready!" Vanessa took a step forward, ready to start out in any random direction. "You were doing that in the looking glass, too. Playing with your ring, that is." Not that she was trying to pry, but it was the first thing that popped into her mind to say.
