[ it's been a long time, months and months, since sansa had addressed wonderland. many moon cycles came and gone and people has well. today finds her in silks the color of the bluest skies and her hair in an elaborated braid that might remind some of a departed queen whose hair was silver. ]

Good people of Wonderland, I hope today finds you well.

[ formal and perhaps distanced, too. sansa had kept to her chambers for days on end, had not traded words with anyone. the stings were perhaps a bit too much. she had given herself some time to collect herself again and when the need came.

well, there she is. ]

Many people came and gone from this Wonderland of ours and I am missing a companion of my own. A direwolf named Lyanne I have sent to search for some friends that I have found - have departed from among us and were sent free.

[ her voice doesn't quiver, she tidies her gown and speaks again ]

She is highly likely still searching yet I must request that if you happen upon her, you shall tell her to find me. She is a direwolf of the north, larger than a wolf and smaller than a bear, her eyes are golden and her coat is that of grey for.

[ a beat and ]

And I am Lady Sansa of House Stark.

Yeah! Dipper's out doing... Dipper things right now, so it'll just be us girls.

[And girl time is very important, especially when one is dealing with fancy princesses that Mabel is trying to slowly convert to the wonders of modern society.]

I shall see you shortly, then.

[ she feels a bit unsure without lyanne at her side but she walks towards her room, trying to call forward a sense of confidence. she knocks on the door and waits. a little package wrapped in satin in her hands. ]

happy belated nameday.

[ that's what she says with a smile when the door is opened. what. it's an important day in a girl's life. ]

Thanks! [Mabel beams cheerfully and opens the door the rest of the way so Sansa can step inside.] Is that my present?

[decorum tends to vanish out the window when you're a young girl and there are presents.]

Yes, it is.

[ said with a brighter smile. sansa turns coy, a little mischief sneaking into her tone and expression as she asks, innocently ]

would you care to see it?

[ she doesn't wait for a response, opens the sheets on the bed. inside there is a new silk cape in silver, a pattern of flowers sewn carefully in white thread, sansa's handwork, no doubt. above them, rests a little trinket in silver ]

for you. I made certain of your size, it should fit well, I reckon.

[Mabel's eyes go wide and her hands go to her mouth. She's never had anything so fancy before- that sort of happens when you handmake your own clothes and only really wear sweaters, but even if she did go shopping at all the places Pacifica goes, she'd never have anything so pretty. In fact, the idea that Pacifica would freak out over the finery delights her a little.]

Sansa, it's so pretty. Did you make this? [she's almost hesitant to touch it, but she gets over it pretty quickly and proceeds to run her hands over the silk like she's petting a cat.] So silky...

[ when sansa nods, her smile turns sweeter, happiness making its way to her eyes at the compliment. it's been a long time she had anyone to give gifts to, especially in the form of another young lady. ]

I thought you might wish to wear it when the weather turns colder.

[Mabel scoffs] Girlfriend, I wear sweaters every day of my life. I won't have to wait.

[and to prove it, she goes and clasps it around her shoulders. It was probably not meant to be worn with a handknit turtleneck, but Mabel will work it like it was.] Ta da! [she does a little spin on one foot to make the cloak swish around her.]
