Well, well.

Isn't this interesting.

[She is very much Alice. Just not yours, Puss.]

Mental decay? [She raises a brow at that.] I should think it doesn't agree with anyone, puss.

[notquitefeline]

Oh, you'd be surprised by how many seem to benefit from it.

[madcuriosity]

[She crouches down and scratches behind his ears and under his chin.] I'm sure I would be surprised. But you seem perfectly fine, Cheshire. As cryptic as ever, in fact.

Hahaha matching icons <3

[notquitefeline]

[He purrs as he leans into the touch, tail flicking. He's probably not nearly as nice to pet anymore, but it's still as appreciated as ever]

I'm nothing if not adaptable, clearly. But you~

You're more together than I've seen for some time. No fires curling the picture yet?

<3 I just redid it, actually <3

[madcuriosity]

I'm not even sure what you mean by fires, so I suppose that must be the case. And have you seen me, before now, besides Wonderland I mean?

I approve~~

[notquitefeline]

[He's pleased to hear as much. It's not the kind of thing he'd wish on her again]

Glimpses here and there, but most not quite right. Older, younger, different faces and new voices but there's always a little bit of you in all of them.

I can make you one with her as a brunette, if you'd like?

[madcuriosity]

Well, in the game I'm at, there are so very many Alices, Cheshire Puss!

Fffft that would be awesome! I'm so hopeless at iconing ;;

[notquitefeline]

Are there? Does one carry about the Vorpal Blade, by chance? Or maybe an overlarge peppergrinder?

Kay give me a few minutes :)

[madcuriosity]

I'm not sure about either... but one is only slightly taller than me. She knows nothing about Wonderland. Then the other Alice, she was dragged to Wonderland by the White Rabbit who is also called Peter. And then the one Alice is a boy only we've renamed him Elly. And then the very last Alice is a brunette and very pale!

<3!

[notquitefeline]

[An Alice without Wonderland. How curious indeed.]

Brunette and pale would be it, I imagine. You'd do well to stay close to that one. She's not concerned about dirty hands when the time calls.

Tell me more about about the one who's taller.

[madcuriosity]

They're all taller than me Cheshire, you'd have to be more specific.

<_< I think I'm going to have to buy more icon space, hahah

[notquitefeline]

[He snorts softly, arching his back in a stretch before settling down]

The one missing her Wonderland, naturally.

I've had that issue

[madcuriosity]

Well, she doesn't even seem to care. She's from a place called the Abyss. You know what the most curious thing is about her, though? She can actually turn INTO a black rabbit!

[notquitefeline]

Are you sure her Abyss isn't similar to your Wonderland? Or a Wonderland at the very least, though some as are far from wonderful as teacups are from Bolterflies.

But a rabbit, you say?

I like that icon <3

[madcuriosity]

Well, the strange thing is, she has a Cheshire Cat. There's a hatter, and even a Jabberwock! But... just no Wonderland. Well... maybe it is a Wonderland. But no one has explained the Abyss to me. It's just "I'm from the Abyss" or they know about this "Abyss" and little else is said.

It's very adorable :3

[notquitefeline]

Has your curiosity dampened so much that you no longer seek answers to your questions?

It is all things considered <3

[madcuriosity]

Don't speak nonsense, puss. [She frowns as she taps his nose.] Of course it isn't. No matter the trouble it gets me in.

[notquitefeline]

[There's a change if anyone else but an Alice has done that, they'd be without a finger or two. In this case, he only chuckles, flexing his claws idly]

Then it's a wonder you don't have more knowledge about this Abyss she speaks of.

[madcuriosity]

[She really doesn't know too much of it. Alice, the other Alice, didn't really enjoy discussing it. Or this Alice was distracted by something shiny else.]

They have these things called "chains" which... I'm not entirely sure I understand though I've asked about it.

[notquitefeline]

[He makes a thoughtful noise. For a name like 'Abyss', he expected something more sinister than chains...]

Tell me about your Wonderland.

[madcuriosity]

My Wonderland? You know it, Puss. I followed a white rabbit down a rabbit hole further into my own dream!

[notquitefeline]

It's been quite sometime since the rabbit came attached with anything as whimsical as dreams where I come from.

[madcuriosity]

Wonderland has always been my dream. [And she's promptly picking you up and moving you into her lap, cat, so she can properly scratch you and pet you behind ears and under chin and at the base of your tail.] So you can only imagine my surprise, Cheshire, when so many seem to know about it in the place I'm in! Well... maybe you can't, but still.

[notquitefeline]

[He gives a slightly indignant noise when she picks him up, though any protest he might want to give is quieted when she pets him. Instead, he purrs, settling into her lap and leaning into the touches]

One's reality is another's storybook in these sorts of places, it seems.

Wonderland use to be your dark-haired counterpart's dream, too, but life has an unfortuante way of changing things.

[madcuriosity]

I suppose so, I've met many a fairytale princesses you know.

And oh! You mean the older Miss Alice! She's at the game I'm at as well! But I told you that. She's the only other one who has had Wonderland as her own dream. I quite enjoy talking to her.
