She smiled, her smile friendly and lacking guile, her thoughts on the fact that the tall blond with the colourful outfit was the nicest prince that she'd ever met.
Okay so he was also the only prince she had ever met, but why bother with semantics?
She would have been happy to pick up Miss Kitten because the small black cat really was the most adorable little thing, however Remarque had already picked her up and so Mi-Hi followed as he led the two of them further down an alley.
It wasn't a long walk, although the mirror that Remarque had taken them too hadn't really looked like much...
Then his shoe had touched the glass and the glass had rippled, making Mi-Hi think of water - of a surface of a pond.
Stepping through made her think of water too, the sensation cold in the same way as jumping into the swimming pool for the first time was cold - but without any actual wetness - and once she was on the other side she had surreptitiously tugged at the hem of her top in order to check.
She wasn't sure quite sure what she was expecting, but the brightness wasn't it - because it was bright enough that it took a few moments for her eyes to adjust.
And if her green eyes were a little wide, then they were also excited because this - this...
"Wow this is so neat."
