This was...different. One day, Alice had been skulking around the Pantheon, brooding about her chosen fate, and the next, it was practically impossible to skulk, and pretty hard to brood, too. The sudden celebration took her by surprise, jarring her out of her loop of melancholy thoughts. There were people, happy people everywhere, revelling in their continued existence, celebrating Harmodius. It was very colorful, to say the least, and the slightest bit disconcerting.

Not that she was being grumpy, she just...hadn't had a reason to be happy herself in quite a long time, and she didn't exactly have friends or anything to join in with. It was rather like being at a party where you didn't know anyone. Awkward. Nevertheless, she ventured out with her four-legged friend in tow. It took all of a few minutes, however, for the dog to disappear.

"Hector?" Alice jogged in the direction he'd run off to, calling. "Hector, where did you...Hector!"

Oh, she'd found him alright, but he'd found something too, trotting up to her with his 'prize': something small, fluffy, and adorable. "Oh my god, what are you doing with that?! Give that here!"

She pried open his jaws to extricate the poor creature, hoping it was still alive and not too hurt. For a fleeting moment, she thought she might be too late, but once it was safely in her arms, the floox opened up its eyes and squeaked, burrowing closer. Saved~! It had only been playing dead, and was very grateful to have been rescued. Clearly it didn't know the dog was hers.
