[Elizabeth looks rather apprehensive that the tears have suddenly appeared everywhere, but she can't quite mask her excitement at getting to explain to everyone the one area in which she is most certainly an expert - even if the information she has to offer is something most people have probably figured out for themselves by now.]

These rips in the air that have appeared - they're called tears, and they're something I can create. They're a window through the fabric of reality, and they show other versions of the world. The tears I make here can only lead to other versions of Wonderland, but I've looked through some of the ones that showed up by themselves and they led to versions of Columbia, where I came here from, too.

[She has quite a bit of distaste in her voice as she mentions Columbia.]

My main advice is to be careful. Most of the alternate realities out there are rather benign, with a thousand tiny changes possible - tea instead of coffee, or different coloured wallpaper. But there are also those that have bigger, more important variables at play, and those tears can be very dangerous. You might see people you recognise on the other side of them, but their personalities could be completely different - just keep reminding yourself that it's not really your parent, or partner, or whoever, but just another version of them. A 'what-if', it might be easiest to think of it as.

[It's very unlikely that she'll be able to heed her own advice, as sound as it seems to give it out.]

If you have any questions at all, I'm more than happy to answer them.

I was wondering what those whisps were!

[Looking through them could provide some entertainment.]

I never knew you could make portals to other worlds!

I've always been able to. I was never sure if the mansion would find a way to use them too.

Well, you know events. I doubt these tears will be back any time soon.

[Or ever again.]

Can you control where the tears lead, the confines of Wonderland notwithstanding?

More or less. There's no telling exactly where they'll go, of course, but when I make them they always seem to go where I need them to. I've always thought of it as a sort of wish-fulfilment.

[When she was able to control the power properly, at any rate.]

Interesting...

[He'll keep this one in mind.]

Have you tried to open any new tears today, or affect Wonderland's tears?

I've been a little nervous to do so. I'm not exactly sure what could happen if I try.

[She isn't sure what the extent of her power even is.]

[Interesting, interesting... Now he's curious.]

I think now's a good time to experiment, don't you agree?

[She's curious too, but she also knows how horribly wrong it could go.]

I'm not sure. I think the mansion is doing enough damage without me adding to it.

... Fair point.

[What's the worst that could happen?]

I suppose waiting until the event passes is a better option.

Usually I'd offer a demonstration, but I think the tears that Wonderland is making give a far better example of how my powers should be, rather than what this place has reduced them to.

Aaaah. Fair enough.

I suppose this works much like how Ebenezer Scrooge saw his past? We can see people on the other side, but they can't see us?

It works like that while we're just looking through. But once you cross over, you become a complete part of that world. That's why it's so important to be careful.

Aaaah... That sounds... Reasonable.

[Thanks for the warning, girl.]

I'll try to keep my distance, then.

That's probably for the best.
