Ooh, this was lovely. Great background for him, love his mother to pieces.
She knew that for a 6-year-old, Hatter was all too aware of how much he cost his mother. Och..
Lying to that child was like lying to God, he always knew and he never forgot, but he never hated you for it, which was so much worse. Just want to grab him up and hug him.
If she had been suspicious of how the man who’d interviewed her had looked at her wild haired son in his pageboy cap, she had told herself that nothing at the Casino could be more dangerous than on the streets. Eeee.. menace..
“Not nothing, Hatter! What did you do?” Nice reflection on the earlier scene!
Now she sees her son, who had been so small, so sweet, so brave only six months before, but who had suddenly started picking on other children, hiding in his room, not wearing hats... Awww...
He shook his head, clearing cobwebs. “I miss my hats.” ::sigh:: Poor thing... This was a lovely detail.
and driven him more than slightly mad. This, too.
found some actual teacups and tea, bought a very fancy chair, and set up shop. <3 Love it.
Thank you! It started out being a bit of a joke, but I love Lola and the story grew. She was just a mom trying to do right by her kid and ultimately Hatter is just like her; he's a doer, not so much a schemer. He sees Alice and just knows he's gotta follow her where ever she's going.
