Arrival the First
[On the Plane is a girl. She is a perfectly ordinary looking girl with blonde hair, wearing a perfectly ordinary looking pinnafore and frock and stockings and shoes. She has a finger to her lips and is being very thoughtful at the moment. That is to say, her head is currently filled with a large number of thoughts, as well as a few very short poems and the first three items of the shopping list hung on the refrigerator (which happened to be bread, pickles and butter, in that order). She walks and muses, seemingly oblivious to the Plane.]
Oh, but it is rather strange to have them written as such. I do wonder what Mother was thinking, to put pickles between bread and butter. Why, I should think such a thing would taste dreadful! If I were to write the shopping-list, I believe I should put bread and butter at the top with jam and scones, and pickles should go farther down near the bottom. Or perhaps they shan't go on at all, for I am not that fond of them, afterall. Yes, I do believe I would exclude them entirely, though doing so might make them rather cross. I should certainly hate to see a pickle crossed, for one can never be too certain of what would happen. They can be ever so bitter, or so I have heard.
[Alice stops walking and puts her hands on her hips, looking around with a frown.]
Bother, but this is taking ever so long. Have I gone the wrong way again? Things all seem right-side-in when I was certain they would be right-side-out... certainly if one is often right- side-out, then when one is through a Looking-Glass, one should be right-side-in or wrong-side-out or both-sides-in or both-sides-out, though I expect that would be rather awkward. If both sides were in or out, then there shouldn't be anything inbetween and I daresay they wouldn't be sides at all.
[Having reached some semblance of a decision, she starts walking again.]
Hm! I wonder which way leads to the stair-case. I should rather like to see outside before I go back to Dinah and the kittens.
