"Maybe we could get to know each other while we wish?" Aliens suggested a light dusting of pink on her cheeks, "Or maybe not. Sorry that was a stupid suggestion."

"No, it's fine. Sounds like a good idea, though." Hatta replied.

"Oh," Aliana was surprised he agreed, "Well, um, can I ask why you really like hats?"

Hatta blinked several times. "Oh. I…" he thought for a moment. "It's what I was raised for. I'm a hatter. I make hats."

"That makes sense," Aliana said before sheepishly adding, "Sorry I was just really curious. You can ask me a question now."

Hatta shrugged. "It's fine. Uhm…tell me something about you." he replied.

"Well um," Aliana thought for a moment, "I like to draw my happy moments in a notebook."

Hatta nodded. "Oh. That's cool." he replied with a small smile, glancing over at her.

Aliana gave a little smile glad he didn't think she was weird or something, "I guess. Now you tell me something about yourself."

"Uhm…" Hatta thought for a moment. "Hm. I don't know. I like tea." he replied with a smirk.

Aliana reached to lightly slap his arm, but thought better of it retracting her arm back, "Anyone who knows about you knows you like tea."

Hatta grinned crookedly. "Mm. Good." he replied with a laugh.

"Soo," Aliana continued, "You should tell me something that isn't common knowledge."

"Fine. I like to read." Hatta replied with a smirk.

"I never would have guessed," Aliana had a slight sarcastic tone to her voice, "But I suppose it'll do."

Hatta smirked a little. "Oh? You wouldn't have?" he replied, looking over at her.

"Never," Aliana decided to play his game, "You enjoying reading came from nowhere just like your book from last night."

Hatta smirked. "What, you mean out of my hat?" he took off his hat and bowed to her.

Aliana grinned as she watched him stopping her movement, "Yes! Out of that very hat!"

Hatta winked, and put it back on. "But of course, miss Aliana." he replied.

Aliana let out a short giggle, "Why thank you mister Hatta."

Hatta grinned at her. "Mhm." he continued walking.

"Um," Aliana started walking again as she thought about something to tell him, "I have nightmares almost every night."

Hatta blinked. "Hm. Nightmares, or something else?" he asked slowly. "This is Wonderland, and dreams aren't always just dreams, you know."

"I never thought of them as anything more than nightmares," Aliana quickly shut that idea down. If they were something more she didn't want that, what she saw was far worse than Hatta could ever think up, "I don't have any magic anyway."
