ALIC E KINGSTON
William frowned and pushed his way into the house. "He was going to find out sooner or later. I just wish I had been the one to tell him." he said, closing the door before Chelsea had a chance to protest. He was still mad, very, about what the cat had done to Maxwell but he didn't hate him. And he didn't want to be near the Hatter at the moment. He walked into the living room and sat down on the couch quietly.
Alice blushed faintly and took the princes hand, shaking it gently. "You too..uh..your Highness." he said uncomfortably. The prince unerved him. He couldn't put his finger on why but he deffinatly made him uncomfortable.
Elliot blushed again at the thought and tilted his head upward to look at the Prince. He had never really given it much thought before, and now that Maxwell had filled his head with the thoughts it made him think of the Prince differently. He smiled warmly and looked back at Maxwell. "I suppose I am." he said quietly.

 Ｍａｘｗｅｌｌ Ｈｕｎｔｅｒ "The Mad Hatter"Chelsea watched as William had walked in. He stared at him with tired eyes and shut the door. He was really tired, he finally realized. "I'm going to bed," he said simply. At that point he didn't care if William joined him or not, he simply headed up the narrow, dark staircase and found his way to his room. He opened the door to the dark room. In the light it was a dark purple, with black sheets and a comforter. There was white furniture and a window with the heavy black drapes pulled shut. He walked over to them and pulled then back just a bit to let in the beautiful moonlite as he turned and retreated to his bed.
Ares laughed at Alice as he shook his hand. The boy was definitely intimidated. Though he had no reason to be. Ares was a rather kind and cheerful man. Though he had to act like a jerk to keep up his rep, to have people fear him and know who they ruled under. If he didn't, all of Underland would have been upside down and out of sorts. "You can call me Ares. We are friends. Besides the whole tradition that I'm suppose to send the Jabberwocky after you and your suppose to slay it and blah blah blah. Please forgive that, history is hard to die in our family," he said with a smile.
Maxwell smile and patted Elliot on the shoulder. "That's the spirit," he said quietly and stood up holding Tilly in his arms. "Gentlemen, please excuse me while I go put Tilly here to bed and better dress myself," he said as he walked out of the kitchen and down the hall. Tilly's room was a couple of doors down from his own. It was so if Tilly ever needed him he didn't have to go far. He quietly opened the door to the boys room. The light was still on and it showed truly that it was a childs room. Large, plush stuff animals lined the room. There was a small bed that was covered with stuff animals. Toys of all sorts lay on the ground. There was even pictures on the wall. Maxwell smiled as he lay Tilly in his field of stuffed toys and leaned down to kiss his forehead. He flipped on his night light and quietly turned the light off while closing the door. He then walked down to his own room. Turning on the light bright colors of red, blue, green, and yellow jumped out at him with familiarity. His bed was covered with red sheets and a multi color comforter. His pillows were bright yellow and his walls were green, blue, and yellow. They seemed so alive and happy but when the lights were turned off they lulled a person to sleep. That was why Maxwell had his room painted that way. Bright colors in the dark were safe. He quickly went to his dark red dresser and pulled out a plain white shirt. It was so unlike the Hatter's style. It was large and old and it was definitely something he wouldn't were outside. He sighed as he got out of his pants, remembering to kick off his boots, as he put on a pair of sweets. He looked....normal. He then looked in his mirror as he took out his piercings. He did this ritual every night, and even with company he still did it. He didn't let others stop him from being comfortable. He pulled off his rings and then left the room, turning of the lights. He walked back into the kitchen and gave the men a half smile. "Sorry about that," he said staying before them looking like a young man than a crazed hat maker.
"I must be bloody mad."

ALIC E KINGSTON 
William watched Chelsea go upstairs but did not follow him. Instead he got up from the couch and went to the closet beneath the stairs and pulled out a few of the covers that the cat kept there for guests. He then took his shirt off, folding it neatly on the tiny table in the center of the room, and layed down on the couch, pulling the covers over himself. He was mentally, emotionally, and physically drained of energy and fell asleep almost imediatly.
Alice smiled a little more comfortably and folded his hands behind his back. As kind as the princes voice was, and as reassuring as his words were, he didn't feel like he could completely trust him. After all the reason he had been dragged to Wonderland was to slay the Jabberwocky. He relaxed anyways though and kept his expression calm and happy.
Elliot smiled and stood up after Maxwell had left to take Tilly to bed. He scratched his left ear absentmindedly and stood beside Ares. He suddenly felt like he should say something to the Prince but wasn't sure what. The hare continued to scratch at his ear and cleared his throat loudly. And that was where he stopped, for his mad mind decided to completely go off in a different direction. He rocked back and forth on his heels and hummed a song his mother used to sing to him when he was little. His mind traveled back to when he had been just a little hare who hadn't grown into his ears yet. That was when he still had both of his eyes.
Alice tilted his head to the side when Maxwell announced his arrival back. He had to admit he was a little shocked to see the man wearing such..bland clothes. He may not have known the Hatter very long but he had been expecting all of the mans clothes to be as vibrant and odd as his previous one. Alice looked the man up and down multiple times, taking it in. The outfit change had deffinatly not changed how attractive Maxwell was, and the boy felt his face heat up just thinking about it. Then another thought came back to him. Of warm lips and strong arms and skin. Hot skin that he had recently had his hands all over. He blushed darker and tried to put the thoughts of his previous activities with the Hatter away.

Ｍａｘｗｅｌｌ Ｈｕｎｔｅｒ "The Mad Hatter"Ares looked at Elliot as he started to hum. The poor Hare wasn't in his right mind again. He was in an even worse condition than Maxwell. When Maxwell reappeared Ares wasn't surprised to see his attire. Maxwell had a way of dressing comfortably to bed and how he his emotions played while he was awake. "Elliot, by chance would you like to share a cup of tea with me at the castle? A fresh batch of Rosemary came in. You can stay or go home afterwards, it's up to you," he said in his deep vioce regaining the air of royalty.
Maxwell had tilted his head when he saw the blush come across Alice's face. "Alice, you may sleep where you want to night. I just suggest not in any of the rooms I told you not to open. So that leaves the living room, mine, or Tilly's. I also suggest you don't sleep outdoors. Creatures are out there," he said as he crossed his arms over his chest and looked out of the kitchen to a window in the dinning room that was never used with it's drapes closed tightly. "I hate to be rude Ares but may I ask you to leave? It's late and I'm retiring to bed shortly," he said as he turned his attention back to the people in the room. "Of course Maxwell," he said with a nod of his head as he placed a hand on the top of his sword.
"I must be bloody mad."

ALIC E KINGSTON Elliots ears twitched as his eye regianed focus on the present. He turned to look at the Prince who had spoken to him and scratched distractedly at his eyepatch. It wasn't often that he would think of his past but sometimes it would find its way into his head without warning. He smiled warmly at Ares and nodded. "Of course. It is always an honor to be welcomed to your castle." he said, bowing slightly.
Alice thought of his sleeping options and looked at the couch. It was a tad bit lopsided, which of course most things were here, but it looked like it would make a sutible bed. He didn't want to cause anymore problems for Maxwell and he was sure if he shared a bed with him the word would get out and it would complicate things for the hatter. He would sleep with Tilly but the boy was already in bed and he didn't want to wake him. "I'll just sleep in the living room for now, if thats all right." he said, feeling a yawn come up in his chest.

Ｍａｘｗｅｌｌ Ｈｕｎｔｅｒ "The Mad Hatter"Ares sighed putting a hand to his forehead. "I'm seriously going to have to break you of that habit," he said as he shook his head and walked towards the front door, waiting for Elliot. "Take care Maxwell. Till next time Alice," he said as he opened the door. "Good evening Ares," Maxwell said still looking at Alice.
"Alright, let me get you some blankets and what not," he said as he brushed past Alice as he walked towards his room. Once again he stood in the brightly colored exotic room and this time he was rummaging through his closest. He pulled out a large blanket with stars and bright pink and red colors. It was a rather flamboyant blanket. He then went to his bed and stole one of his pillows. He wondered if Alice would need night clothes as he walked out of the room and back to Alice holding the articles.
"I must be bloody mad."

Elliot smiled and nodded his goodbyes to Maxwell and Alice. He followed Ares out the door and went into step beside him. His ears nervous twitch was gone and he felt completely relaxed for once. "If it's alright with you I want to stay after we have tea." he said happily.
Alice smiled and took the blankets and pillow from Maxwell. He layed them out on the couch and sat down, looking up at the hatter. "Thank you, I think this will be good." he said, folding his hands together in his lap. He then reached down and took off his shoes and socks and placed them side by side on the floor beside the couch.

Maxwell let out a sigh as he offered Alice his hand. "Come with me," he said waiting for the boy to take his hand.
((I think I love Princey Pants .3. He's sweet and kind. And not a sex whore. It's almost adorable.))

Elliot smiled and watched Ares from the corner of his eye as they walked. He got a funny feeling his chest sometimes when he would look at the prince and he supposed it was what Maxwell had been talking about earlier. The thought of it made him smile even more. "Thank you, Prince Ares." he said.
Alice looked up at the hatter and hesitated. He wasn't sure what else the Hatter could want with him since he already had everything he needed for bed, but he reached up and took his hand anyway.
((xD He makes me happy.))

Ｍａｘｗｅｌｌ Ｈｕｎｔｅｒ "The Mad Hatter"Ares shook his head and sighed. "It's just Ares, Elliot," he said quietly. Before they knew it they were at the castle doors. The opened with a creak and a small card with the number 1 on it and a red heart bowed to the Prince. "Welcome home Your Majesty," he said without raising his head. Ares expression slightly darkened and he snapped his fingers, the card raising it's head. "Prepare a room for my guest here and make a pot of the Rosemary tea," he said as the card bowed again and he walked past him. All the cards had bowed to him as he passed. He walked with his head held high to the tea room which was always prepared for him. He entered and his expression lightened and he shined a bright smile to Elliot. "I never get tired of this room," he said as he stared around the ornate room.
Grabbing his hand Maxwell pulled the boy behind him and into his room. He turned on the light and the bright colors on the wall jumped out, the green of the pillows shouted, and the overall care for the room said it was the Hatters safe haven. He went to his draw and pulled it open pullin out a pair of silk pajamas. They were long and light. They screamed 'Maxwell' with their dark red color with a light blue stripe that seemed to wrap around his body. He handed them to Alice. "Here," was all he said as he closed the drawer.
((.3.))
"I must be bloody mad."

Elliot smiled and entered the room after Ares. He, like the Prince, didn't think he would ever get tired of the room either. And he had been in it several times. He loved the way the Prince took charge while he was inside the castle. Elliot took a seat and propped his elbows up on the table and placed his chin on his hands. He knew it wasn't proper edicate for a place like this but small details like that didn't always register in the hares mind. "It is a lovely room, Ares."
Alice took the clothes and looked back up at Maxwell. "Thank you." he said politely. He left the room quietly and headed off to the bathroom to change and get ready for bed. The pajamas were very comfortable, and were about 4 sizes to big. The sleaves hung down over his hands and the bottoms of the pants dragged the ground. He had to hold his pants up so they wouldn't fall down as he made his way back to Maxwell's room to wish him a good night.

Ｍａｘｗｅｌｌ Ｈｕｎｔｅｒ "The Mad Hatter"Finally one of the cards brought out the tea and small finger food and cakes for the two to eat. He silently nodded his thanks to the card and began to sip his tea when Elliot had spoke. He paused and his eyes opened wide as he spit out his tea in surprise. A dark blush covered his face almost the same color as his eyes as he stared at Elliot in complete and utter shock. He had called him eyes and it had made his chest flutter. He stood up quickly and averted his eyes. "Excuse me," he said as he dashed out of the room.
Maxwell stared at Alice in his night clothes. They were too big for him but he wasn't sure he had anything smaller. Without saying a word he went to his dresser and opened a old jewelry box that sat on top of it. Inside there was pins and hair ties and the sort. His mother had left it to him when she passed just like her mother before her. He grabbed a hair tie and put a few pins in his mouth as he got on his knees and ties Alice's pants up so it would fit. Then he got down to his feet and rolled up each pant leg and pinned it up so nicely that it looked like perfectly hemmed pants. But of course it, he was a professional with a needle. He stood up and grabbed his arms lightly as he rolled up each sleeve and pinned it too. Now Alice looked like a boy in over sized, but yet nicely fitting, nightware. He smiled as he grabbed a hair tie himself and tied his hair back. He closed his jewelry box with a smile as he "dusted" his hands off. "Good enough I'd say," he said with a smile.
"I must be bloody mad."

ALIC E KINGSTON Elliot tilted his head to the side as he watched the Prince run out of the room in a hurry. Perhaps it was something he had said? The hare stood up from the table and contemplated on following him. Maybe he was hurt or something bad had happend? Elliot opened the door and rushed off into the hallway after the Prince. "Prince Ares! Are you alright?"
Alice watched in amazement as the hatter fixed up his pajamas. When he had finished they fit much better and didn't require him to hold up the pants. "Thanks thats much better." he said, smiling up at the hatter. He stood there uncomfortably for a moment while he tried to think of something else to say. "Well, goodnight then." he said, that being all he could come up with, and turned to go to the living room.

Ｍａｘｗｅｌｌ Ｈｕｎｔｅｒ "The Mad Hatter"Ares heard Elliot close behind and only felt his face grow that much more hot. "Damn, damn, damn!" he shouted under his breath as he rounded a corner quickly, spotting some drapes, and hiding behind them. "Please don't find me, please don't find me, please don't find me," he whispered over and over.
Maxwell watched as the boy left. "Good evening," he said and closed his door, flicking off the lights before going into his bed. Rest came to him very quickly.
"I must be bloody mad."

ALIC E KINGSTON Elliot ran around the corner and stopped to catch his breath. He sighed, not seeing the prince anywhere. Elliot turned around, about to go check the other way when he saw a buldge in the drapes. He walked over to it and poked it lightly. "Excuse me drapes, but have you seen the Prince around here?" he asked them politely.
Alice walked back into the living room and layed down on the couch. He pulled the covers up over his head and snuggled down in them. Closing his eyes he let the days event's run through his mind one by one. It seemed that the reason he was here was not to kill the Jabberwocky after all, and if that were true then why was he brought here in the first place. He groaned and rolled over, trying to toss the thought from his head. Sleep was going to be an issue for him.
