♦ 03 ♣ Various Action ♥ Video ♠
[Action - Genessia Library]
[Cheshire Cat sightings are really rather common at Genessia library. Typically the pink and purple striped feline can be found snoozing happily on a table, or comfortably tucked away somewhere along the many rows of bookshelves. But anyone visiting the library today may be faced with a far more unusual spectacle: the usually sleeping cat is wearing glasses and wide awake, surrounded by at least 7 open books. All depicting beautifully decorated illustrations of baked goods - from cakes to pies to choux pastries.
At the moment he doesn't appear to have noticed anyone approaching, far too engrossed in noting down ingredients and recipe ideas. Care to disturb him?]
[Action - Pan's Grocery]
[Who would have guessed shopping for ingredients could be such a difficult task? It's hard enough for a cat to keep control of the shopping trolley (though it's probably harder for everyone else swerving out of his path to avoid getting run over), but there are also so many aisles! How is anycat supposed to find anything?
After picking up eggs, milk, and butter, Ches can be found floating around the home baking section blinking at the array of sugars. Anyone who draws close enough for conversation will receive a wide trademarked grin and a question that is actually 100% serious despite sounding very much like a riddle.]
When is sugar not the right sugar?
[Video | Action - TARDIS]
[Ches has crushed many eggs in his 9 lives. They are, after all, exceedingly easy to break. Plus the crunch is ever so satisfying even if the clean up can take a little longer than desired. But cracking them such that the edible part ends up in a bowl and not all over his paws is a very different challenge.
It's around mid-afternoon when he bumps the video feed on with his nose to avoid getting raw baking ingredients all over the communication device. Anyone watching will get a very clear close up of cat nose and whiskers, which slowly moves back to reveal approximately half a dozen smashed eggs on the counter.
In his defence, these paws and claws were probably not designed for baking.]
I don't suppose anyone knows the secret to successfully cracking eggs?

[Eartip™. What a frabjous surprise!]
Did Humpty Fall down the rabbit hole with you? [She did arrive via rabbit hole, right?]
Re: [Video]
It's splendid to see you! I've been looking for you ever since I found out you were here.
And no, I'm afraid he isn't about, at least, not that I know of.
no subject
[That is a completely logical question and he won't be convinced otherwise.]
Did you meet our Hatters? There are two in Genessia.
no subject
[She smiles.]
Two, no, I've certainly only met one of our Hatters, my Hatter, to be precise. Though I suppose a city could have as many hatters as there are heads.
Who is the second one?
no subject
[Sometimes the product of two negatives is a positive. Which ironically results in a negative for both parties.]
She goes by Madeline Hatter and use to run a tea shop with a Mad Hatter!
no subject
A girl hatter, then! How splendid! Is she trapped in tea time too?
no subject
[As much as a Cheshire Cat can love anyone.]
But really time is just tea time and tea time is just time because tea is for all times!
no subject
Have you had any yet, puss? Or have you been quite busy with your eggs?
no subject
no subject
Iced tea, but why?
no subject
[Most probably in the form of riddles, and perhaps even after solving them it won't be obvious which tea shops she's being referred to. But a list nevertheless.]
Because iced tea can be drunk from pitchers, which are less breakable than teacups. [Yep, totally the reason.]
no subject
[Considering she loves riddles
and made Wonderlandshe'll look forward to a riddle list.]So they drink from the pitcher? [How barbaric!]
no subject
[Teacups are obviously still the best in both a traditional and aesthetic sense (imagine a tea party with pitchers, ugh!). But a gallon of tea! How frabjous would that be?]
no subject
no subject
Also who needs perfume when you can jump into a giant teacup and drench yourself in tea from ears to tail?]
Oh, but you must take care not to stain your hair with tea. [That would be quite the tragedy indeed!]
no subject
The hare stains himself on his own plenty with tea, Cheshire puss. [Yay word play!]
