The voice was jarring, to say the least. He hadn't seen anyone from his world since Gilbert and hadn't expected anyone else to drop in after the boy's hasty retreat. So he was suspicious at first, peering around the corner to the entryway with his eye narrowed and his cane at the ready. His suspicion increased when he saw her dress, even as amusement crept into his smile-- surely, the real Alice wouldn't wear something like that without the threat of imminent death. But she was shouting and stomping around and carrying on like the the real Alice would and it was the proper place for a newcomer... well, if it turned out to be a trick then he could always just kill the thing. He wouldn't mind getting another chance at that, free of consequence and guilt. As interesting as the Black Rabbit was, and as much as she had grown on Oz and the rest (and maybe even on him, though he'd never admit it), she had also caused quite a bit of trouble

Stomping and shouting was an accurate way to describe her behaviour, of course, her hands fisted in the fabric of the skirt to facilitate just that. However, with a rather jarring change of disposition, this changed as Break came into sight, ranting and taunting in his usual jeering, annoying manner. A hiss began to rise in the back of Alice's throat, and she stepped back in an attempt to distance herself from him, something he made difficult by his inane circling.

Now why did it have to be him to show up? If he had warmed up on her, she'd never admit it - and besides he was an idiot and annoying. Sure, he'd been there, too, but Oz would have been much more preferable. "Who the hell are 'they', then?" she demanded, ferociously, still glaring and hissing in his general direction, trying to keep a close eye on him, "I'll force them to let me go myself!" Despite the glowering, her posture was firm and steady. But that wavered, after a second, for a mere instant, as it seemed that something he said sunk in. "What do you mean Oz isn't

Ah, so she knew him, and Oz too-- so she couldn’t be more than a few months behind him. And she wasn’t shocked to see him alive, so she couldn’t be more than a year ahead of him either.

“It’s a valid question! There’s then and now and later, and I’m from then because then I was taken here, but it’s been a while so I’d just like to know when you’re from.”

He ignored her first question for the time being. If he told her about the phantasms, he had no doubt that she would try to find them, stomping and storming around the house until she had called them out or found the abyss, and she would learn just how trapped they really were. That wasn’t a lesson she needed to learn just yet

Alice kept glaring at Break, especially as he 'explained' what he meant. It was complete and utter nonsense, of course, but she didn't expect any better from him, now did she? Folding her arms over her chest as she stared him down, she stated, matter-of-factly (as she clearly knew more than he did, here), "I saw you a few minutes ago, stupid." Was his memory going, now, too, with age?

Of course, it seemed like he was mostly just being his usual annoying, difficult self, not even telling her what she wanted to know. Of course, the piece of information about Oz was clearly pretty important, in and of itself. "Why the hell isn't he here?" she demanded, angrily. It was one part annoyance at the lack of Oz in general, and one part at his being a bad servant. Besides, she could tell it didn't make much sense. He'd been with her right before, after all, and it clearly wasn't like this was the Abyss or anything.

"A few minutes ago?" Doumeki and Watanuki had that problem too, hadn't they? Doumeki remembered Watanuki from after Watanuki had been taken. It was hard to say if this was related to Watanuki's alternate universes or if the house was somehow taking them and replacing them in their home world, or even if their identities here were merely copies and their real selves had never left... in any case, it meant that Alice's response was positively useless. The him she had seen was certainly not the him he was now, because he had seen her shortly before he had left, and she hadn't been wearing this dress. But she had been wearing the scarf he'd made her, he remembered, a little amused. She complained and yelled and quite definitely hated him, but she hadn't gotten rid of the scarf
