Oh thank goodness! She wasn't in a land of giants. But then who would possibly need such massive buildings! And so many of them at that! She was quite glad to hear that most everyone was a normal size. Although she would like to meet a giant... at least... if it were a nice giant she'd like to meet one anyways. Oh it would be quite lovely to meet a big friendly one she supposed! So long as someone friendly she wouldn't mind meeting anyone of any size! But that wasn't really the issue at the moment. Although her curiosity made her wonder what was inside such large buildings.
"How do you do Mr. Break," she said with a smile. While he was dressed quite oddly Alice was at least happy to see he was pleasant. And it was nice to hear that everyone was the proper size. She had had quite enough experience shrinking and growing to last her a life time. She didn't want to go through that again (though she admitted she wouldn't mind being a little taller
( ... )
"What is it all!" she said as she continued to look at everything, holding Basil close. "Everything is terribly peculiar, who made everything? Was it just simply here when you came across these rooms? Are all the rooms like this?" she asked with amazement. Her curiosity got the better of her and she went into the kitchen. Her eyes widened and she turned to look at Xerxes.
"What... is everything?" She couldn't believe how everything looked and how... strange everything was!
So many questions! What a curious child she was. Not that Break was at all surprised for this, of course. She was Alice, after all.
"This was indeed all here. It is quite likely that you shall come across some similar devices when you are in your own home," Break answered simply. He would tackle the other questions after.
But before he could, the kettle hissed, but did not screech, for Break was quick to pick it up and pour the heated water into the cups.
As he made the tea, he told Alice, "Why don't you have a seat, Miss Alice? We can discuss everything over tea, of course~"
She went over to the chair and sat down, careful of her skirts as she watched Xerxes pour the hot water into the tea cups. She hoped she would get to have some tea this time. She could still remember not getting a single drop whilst with the Mad Hatter. But Xerxes wasn't the Hatter so it was of little issue. She rested her hands in her lap and watched him with curiosity. Alice knew how to make tea of course, but she had never seen tea be made on such a curious looking stove. Which she was rather sure was what the contraption was
( ... )
"But of course, Miss Alice," Break answered. "It is black tea, of course~" And as that was quite enough information, he disappeared for a moment, before returning with cream and sugar. Lady Sharon's tastes, after all, often ran closer to sweetening her tea with such things, and Break would not have been surprised if Alice was the same way. He set the other objects on the table, within her reach, and only then did he take his seat.
Then Break said, "You are quite welcome. Surely it was the least I could do~"
