[ If it sounds like Alice is daycare, there's a good reason for it. She looks a little tired and very confused. There's a good number of children around her and one decides to plop themselves on her lap.

Oh. Okay. Fine. Deep breaths. ]


Hello, there. Can you stand, just for a minute? It shan't take long, then you can sit in my lap all you want.

[ She shoos him along. Alice heaves a deep sigh, holding her face.] ]

For a small minute, I thought I was back in London. Possibly because I have been around a large number of children, this many, with same limited resources.

I suppose my question is, is there a particular reason why I came back to over a dozen or so children? Not that I mind it, although I wouldn't be opposed to having a bigger space.

[ Yes, when did this happen? Alice has forgotten some tidbits of that fight, after all. ]

[ really? doesn't seem too radical to him. ]

What kind of meatheads have you gotten used to?

Don't know it.

[ but that's not a surprise. most of them have probably never heard of each others' homes. if it's like Odette, though, ]

Sounds to me like everyone's always got something more important on their minds. [ or so they think. ]

[ he pauses. ]

We're not doing so bad. All that can be expected for this directionless mob of freaks. I meant back in London. [ though it's no less true here, he supposes. maybe it's too kind of him to ascribe the selfish agendas to something bigger going on in their world. ]

Someone told me about it early on, how they observed that so many of us came from ruin. I know how it is. Desperation breeds that sort of thing.
