Oh, so now you've remembered me. Funny how fleeting your memory can be until there's something you want. It's not natural, you know, to miss hearing my voice inside your head. Or worse, to have ever begun hearing it at all. These aren't dreams, after all. Nothing that could be so easily brushed off.

Perhaps you aren't all that different from our dear Alice after all.

You certainly, are unforgettable, Cheshire Puss. I am glad to see you, all of you, in fact

[notquitefeline]

Today felt like a All-Together sort of day. [Hello, Little Alice~]

How the hours have stretched and twisted since I saw you last. How has your Not-Wonderland with so many other yous treated you?

[madcuriosity]

All gone. I'm the only Alice like me left. Ah but, I'm in another game as well, now, Cheshire. There's an Alice you know very well there.

[notquitefeline]

O h, really~? You never were the sort to let restlessness get the better of you.

Is there? Tall, dark, and vicious when cornered? You'd be best served finding her good side. She has a nasty habit of breaking the things she doesn't like.

[madcuriosity]

Others might say I let the impatience get the best of me, but I think I like your expression much better. It certainly is more flattering, in any case.

See, you know her already. And she likes me well enough, protective even.

[notquitefeline]

Different names for the same thing. All it takes is the right angle to see what you'd like in something. And, of course, the right amount of shadow to hide it's flaws.

[He stretches out, his tail flicking idly.] She fancies herself a protector at the most convenient times.

[madcuriosity]

[She reaches down and scratches his spine, honestly not minding the way he looks.]

Do you not think she isn't, then, puss?

[fearsnothing]

You've a knack for whimsy and omniscience, Cat, or so I've been told. Are you quite certain the migration to another's own mind isn't all your doing?

I would worry, if I were you. Who knows, you might attract the Duchess' long lost relative. Or worse, the Queen's.

[notquitefeline]

[Oh, there you are~]

As flattering as your faith in my abilities may be, dear Alice, I should hope not. Occupying so many spaces at once spreads one so very thin after all.

Worry, you say? How tedious. I daresay I've already seen worse than either could conjure for me, but your concern is so touching.

[fearsnothing]

[ Where you happen to be so will she, inevitably. ]

I would hardly think of it as an issue for you, with the way you've materialized from thin air.

Don't mistake my words for concern, Cat. I am simply warning you, as you've done so many times. You wouldn't want to be eaten alive by another's nightmare, would you?
