Waiting for applications to open.

[terriblycrowded]

Just when the Frabjous day was upon us? I very well won't be free to futterwacken again just yet then. For you see if it's then, rather than now, then the white queen doesn't have her crown. But it will be nice to see Alice again and all, a younger Alice but still a proper Alice none the less.


Yes, yes, we simply must get on with the applying and such.

sorry - I'm alright.

But yes, our tea was cut short when the blood hound came. But Alice will learn all about that when he's a proper age and comes back.

[madcuriosity]

How terribly confusing to think that there's all this to happen and I won't have a wit of any of it.

[terriblycrowded]

But you will when you do, and that's when you'll need to know again what you knew then.

[madcuriosity]

You mean what I know now? [She thinks she followed his reasoning.]

[terriblycrowded]

Precisely! [And what do we have here, a tea pot with tea! Don't mind if he pours a cup for them.]

[madcuriosity]

Frabjous! [And aaahhh! She may actually get tea from the hatter!]

[terriblycrowded]

It really is a shame that no one else is here to join us. Tell me Alice, have you any idea why a raven is like a writing desk?

[madcuriosity]

You know, I've asked others this riddle, they've come up with all sorts of answers!

[terriblycrowded]

Is that so? Then you know the answer? [An now you have his undivided attention, well his attention is still somewhat divided but you have a larger division now.]

Magnificent!

[madcuriosity]

I'm not sure I know the answer, only an answer... oh well, answers. [Why no tea for Alice, Hatter? Why never any teaaaa?]

[terriblycrowded]

Any answer be the answer so long as it answers the question, well so long as it was a right answer. Or so I should think.. drink... think.

[Because you've distracted him.]

[madcuriosity]

But then any answer isn't the answer, Mr. Hatter.

[terriblycrowded]

[chuckles]

[madcuriosity]

Well, it isn't.

[terriblycrowded]

So it isn't, but then what is?

[madcuriosity]

What is the answer? I don't know, you asked the riddle though.

[terriblycrowded]

The answer? I haven't the foggiest idea. That's why I was interested in the one that Alice knew.

[madcuriosity]

Well, I've an answer in mind, if you'd like to hear?

[terriblycrowded]

Of course, of course. I'm sure it's absolutely splendid if it's something Alice has in mind.

[madcuriosity]

They both must need quills.

[terriblycrowded]

So they do! Clever. [now have that cup of tea he pours.]

[madcuriosity]

[Eeeeeee she's getting tea!] Well, thank you, Mr. Hatter. It's a curious thing that the riddle hasn't an answer.
