She promised the Duke would keep me safe, and so far he's done an excellent job of it!
[Alice scritches the piglet's ears to calm him down a bit - it's okay! They're friends!]
I...I'm still not sure how to best answer that myself. It's all rather complicated and I haven't been able to make much sense of it.
[She gracefully flops to sit on the floor, and scoops up the Duchess' piglet into her arms. She is distressed, and distress is always good cause to sit on floors.]
When I lost my eyes...I hadn't noticed, but something happened to me. I became more connected to Wonderland somehow, and I didn't think anything of it at the time because I thought I'd always been that way. I could sense things that were coming, and I could make myself appear and disappear whenever I felt like it. Or, whenever it felt right, I suppose. There were plenty of times I wanted to but the moment simply wasn't right. It's difficult to explain.
[So difficult that sitting down just isn't enough and she flops onto her back, letting the Duke rest on her stomach.]
I don't want to be one of them, but I'm not sure I can be anything else anymore. Which is a shame, since I've finally started feeling like myself again, except now I've got this odd piece that doesn't quite fit into the Alice puzzle...
