-- nervous, terribly nervous I have once been and am.

Cogs and pabs--for at once, there had been things to be done! Needles and thread--and here, I still hadn't finished my tea.

Oh...[rustling as the communication device is picked up and looked over]--below and above, this contraption has me continuously, contemptuously

Hey. You're in the City.

Audio;

[10shlling6pence]

City? What manner of kind of city--I've never laid eyes on one such as this before.

Audio;

[bufferprincess]

It's a city that brings people from all kinds of places and keeps them. A lot of crazy things happen here and so you have to keep your eye on the network. Does that help some?

I'm Di Di.

Audio;

[10shlling6pence]

More so with my boggling, yes--but--...what is this..network?

Tarrant, Tarrant Hightopp, a Hatter--your servant, of course.

audio; totally just watched it XD

[harrysbackup]

Those were a lot of words to say the device is confusing you and you're lost.

audio; FFFF YES

[10shlling6pence]

Oh.

As it is, words can be lengthily and doubly used when no such words can properly portray and support such immense and troubling feelings...

Re: audio;<3 Tarrant, and <3 yours so far btw

[harrysbackup]

I think I see your point.

[Thomas is about to make a funny, at least given the circumstances.]

Well, unfortunately, you've fallen down the rabbit hole, so to speak. My name's Thomas.

[10shlling6pence]

Rabbit h..? Me, my, cogs and springs--t'were and t'went to fall and befallen--begrudgingly, belligerent beastly misluck--and here I have stumbled upon which she as so done before--

Oh. Thomas--Tarrant, Tarrant Hightopp, a Hatter, and at your service.

[kicksmoreass]

...the hell're you supposed to be?

[10shlling6pence]

I beg, nay, plead your pardon?

[kicksmoreass]

The weird...talking and all the alliteration and stuff. You sound like Dr. Seuss.

[10shlling6pence]

Doctor who?

I don't believe I've made his acquaintance...

[letxequalnull]

It is most commonly referred to as 'The City'.

[10shlling6pence]

I have been so informed--terribly dull and dilly monogram, isn't it.

[letxequalnull]

It is, and yet there are few stepping up to offer another name to replace the old.

[10shlling6pence]

Surely someone must have an idea--who named it so drearily?

[mad_here]

...not another tea-drinker. No. You people are just bad omens.

[10shlling6pence]

Well--if you will excuse such, sir, I rather enjoy my tea--and it has brought me nothing but good and truest fortune, thank you!

[mad_here]

I meant you're the bad omen.

[10shlling6pence]

Urh--.

...Why above and below would I be such?
