[The screen at first shows well... a rather dull room in the children's home with a white plush rabbit sitting on the only bed that is slightly untidier than the others. There is, however, a sudden WOOSH, past the screen with a trail of light and glitter going in the air before suddenly Alice somewhat crash lands into Basil.

Wait.

Alice, who usually holds the stuffed rabbit in the crook of his arm is now quite contentedly sitting atop his head, bright blue and black butterfly wings jutting from her back. Does she look as ecstatic as she feels?

Because she's practically bouncing. Wait no, she is bouncing.]

I HAVE WINGS!

[She stands up atop Basil's head, measuring no more than a few inches tall now, three to be precise..]

I have wings! I'm a fairy! Is something like this very common? I wanted to meet one and now I am one? It's a very good thing I'm quite used to being only three inches tall or this would all seem dreadfully frightening! Although, this time I can fly! I couldn't do that last time so getting so much as past a garden took forever.

Ah but this is frabjous! Oh! I wonder if I can do any magic! Do fairies need wands to do magic? Wait, no... I think that's witches... Or maybe it's both?

Is there a fairy I could speak to who might know?

Oh yes! He can stand on his head, I can't do that at all. Can you stand on yours?

Not quite in the way he can, but it's fun to try from time to time!

Well, I suppose not many can do it the way he can, which makes him all the cleverer for being one of the few able to do it that way. Though, I haven't much tried at all since he asked it of me.

You should really watch him juggle. He's a master of it!

Oh, I shall be sure to ask him the next time we have a tea party.

Oooooh~! A tea party I love tea parties!

Would you like to come to our next one? Although... I'm so tiny now I might end up swimming in my teacup! Wouldn't that be grand! To be able to swim in tea! So long as it isn't scalding it would be splendid! Much better than swimming in a pool of your own tears.

A lot tastier too. [ She giggles happily. ]

I would love to join you if you will have me!

And I would love for you to join us! My name is Alice, Alice Liddell! What might your name be?

My name is Madeline Hatter~! It's a pleasure to... Alice!!!

[ She smacks her fist into her hand with a bright smile. ]

That's it!

That's what?

It!!!

[ because repeating it obviously makes it more clear. ]

It? No, I'm Alice, and your Miss Hatter. There's no It about.

I know why you seemed so familiar to me! I've never gotten to see you so small and tiny before!

Well, in fairness, I'm not usually 3 inches tall.

No no! I know you when you're vintage tea~!

You know me?

In the fuuuuuture~!

[ She wiggles her fingers to make it seem more mysterious. ]

Well, you seem like a lovely hatter to know, so I'm quite glad I get to know you again.
