"Well, I'm certainly no Alice," Alexander said, "More-so an Alex or a Sasha as my aunt would call me,"

Upon hearing that Cheshire was a cat, Alexander decided to draw a cat with fangs biting a stickman's leg in the dirt.

(lol nope)
(Also I uh…may be making a character aes board on WeHeartIt for Addison, so…you may receive a link to that in a day or two or three)

He narrowed his eyes a little bit, and shrugged. "Well yes, but "Alice" is the collective term used for all of you…visitors." he waved a hand vaguely, shaking his head slightly. "Any other questions?" he looked down at Alexander, then reached up to grab his tea, taking a sip of it.

(I would be so down to see that.)

"Is there anything I can fight?"Alexander asked, batting his eyelashes in an attempt to make the question look innocent, "In theory, of course. I'd never purposely try to provoke a being that could kill me. Also, what's with the formal getup?" He poked a finger into Addison's tie when asking this as he had little-to-no sense of boundaries.

(cool! Still working on it, you might get it later today or tomorrow, we'll see)

He narrowed his eyes when he was poked, grabbing Alexander's hand to keep him from poking again. "Don't touch me. And as for fighting…" he shook his head. "You don't want to fight a Wonderlandian, darling, you really don't." he took another sip of tea, looking down at Alexander.

(Can't wait :0)

"I've fought with a rabies infected raccoon before, I think I could handle a Wonderlandian," Alexander zoned out as he spoke, "I will never forget the damage that vile beast inflicted upon me." He ended his sentence by rolling over into his back and draping the back of his hand over his forehead, a dramatic pose, really.

(:D)

He rolled his eyes a little, shaking his head. "You cannot. We are not…like the people you are used to." he replied. He stood straight, setting his tea on the table. "Do stop being dramatic. I should like to be able to carry out a normal conversation that does not involve you flopping all over the ground like a beast."

Alexander's eyes grew big as he sat up to face Addison. "Are Wonderlandians secretly reptilian?! Are you gonna peel your face back and reveal that you're some huge, ugly, flesh-eating lizard? What kind of lizard are you?" Alexander paused for a second before hurling more questions at the poor guy, "Can you breathe fire? What do reptilians eat? Do all reptilians have lizard tails?"

Addison covered his face with his hands. "Fucking– I'm not a goddamn lizard!" he exclaimed, shaking his head and groaning. "What the fucckkk." he looked up at the sky. "Why have the gods sent a male Alice? I didn't need this." he grumbled.

"Got something against reptilians, bro?" Alexander asked, leaning his face on his dirt-covered hand which resulted in a large patch of dirt on his face. "Speaking of things like reptiles, I have a snake! Well, had, assuming it takes me more than a week or two to get out of this place. The step-family definitely won't take well to caring for poor Cthulu even though he's literally the cutest snake to exist. Are there snakes in Wonderland?"

He paused for a second to stand and brush the dirt off his clothes.

"Anyways. I still don't see the problem with me being a dude. I'm technically only an Alice by association, mind you."

"Oh my godssss would you close your mouth??" He complained, looking at Alexander and shaking his head. "One: no, I don't have anything against reptiles, just…ugh. Two: the problem is that the only other visitors Wonderland has ever had are the Alices, who are female. You are male. This may lead to an issue. You don't see it because you don't know Wonderland's history. Capisce?"

(Is it okay if I make up all the Wonderland stuff?? Because I'm a huge fan of Twisted/Dark Wonderland, and I have a brilliant idea for this version of Wonderland's history if that's alright with you and doesn't interfere with your plans?)

(That's fine!)

"Well, maybe you should tell me about Wonderland's history rather than continually mentioning it," Alexander replied, moving to grab another scone from the table. "Besides, it can't be that difficult to follow. I mean, maybe we'll come to a conclusion on what I'm supposed to be doing here if you give me a little history lesson!"

(perfect!!)

He laughed a little bit. "Come inside the house, then. I can't teach anything out here." He headed into the building that had hitherto been unnoticed, tucked back a little bit. It was a lovely little two story place, painted an eggshell blue. It's roof sloped in a strange yet endearing manner, and the door was a soft, off-white color. "Come on." He led Alexander inside. The bottom half of the building, the lower level, was a shop. A hatshop, of course, this is the Mad Hatter we're talking about.

(Sorry for the short reply, I'm trying to work on Spanish while being on NBAI as well.)

"How many hats are in this place?" Alexander asked upon his entry, "Is that a fedora? You should embroider 'Nice guys finish last" on it. Ah, I'm getting sidetracked, sorry. Do you have like, history books or something here?"

Alexander didn't really know what to do in someone else's house besides stand there and wait for instruction.

(it's alright! Spanish takes priority over Nb, it's fine)

He looked over at Alexander, blinking slowly. "Why the fuck would I embroider…you know what? Never mind." he shook his head a little, walking over to his worktable and pulling out a shimmering length of ribbon. He held one end out to Alexander. "Hold onto this for a moment, will you?"

"Sure. Remind me again why I'm helping you with a ribbon?" Alexander said, reluctantly taking the end that was held out to him. "Am I just your hat-making apprentice now? Is this the life I have been doomed to live?"

He snickered a little bit. "This is to help you see." he replied. "Now sit down, this is going to be difficult for both of us." he gestured to a chair, brushing some other supplies off of it so Alexander could sit down. "Just…I'm going to show you the history through my memories."

"Dude this is starting to sound more and more like some weird kink," Alexander muttered to himself, moving to take a seat in the chair. "How is ribbon supposed to help me see anything?" he asked, this time his words loud enough for Addison to hear.

Addison arched an eyebrow. "It's magic, kid." he replied. "This is Wonderland, and this is the easiest way for me to teach you history. If you would prefer to walk back out and not learn, then that's fine. I'll wait for your decision." he plopped down in his own chair.

"Can we just, like, get on with it? I've got-" Alexander paused for a second, "I've got absolutely nothing to do but even then I can't be wasting time which I could be using to leave this place, world, whatever it's considered to be."

Alexander pouted as he looked down at his end of the ribbon, and began wrapping it around his right index finger.

Addison sighed loudly, and clapped his hands together. The room around them faded into darkness, and he stood up again. "Come. I'll show you my earliest lifetimes, and then maybe you will understand why we are so dependent on the Alices, and why the Queens' war will ruin us all."
