Alice stammers, taking one small step back. Her memory of the Mad Hatter in her youth was of a very inconsistent man with a love of tea that drowned out everything around him. How he had made everyone move a down a seat when there were no clean cups available, the half cup, and the unbirthdays.
Just as she had done in her youth, she gives him a weird look, nearly doubling over at the fact it isn't the same mechanic being that lived in Wonderland now. After all he did to the Skool, insane children, and his old friends. His realm was in ruins and yet had an air of organization. "How can I?"
Alice trails off, looking him over head to toe. Of course, Alice being Alice sees this as another hallucination of her own mind. Something of Wonderland in this facet is of it's pure essence, not something Drabwurld threw in. It takes a bit to take in, she can breathe again after settling her heart. "Why, the last I saw of you, you were drowning in tea with the March Hare and Dormy!"
It feels oddly secure to speak so openly of any members of his tea party and yet so... off. Not whole. Alice makes a gesture, "But you... you look like how I remembered you!" What just happened? Did destroying the Infernal Train do this? But if that was the case, parts of Wonderland would be whole. And Alice would be the first to say that Queensland is the same. Then there was the Vale of Tears. "I didn't realize you were looking for me."
