He probably should've asked ahead of time. It seemed the right thing, though, surprising her. Showing up without notice. It was sort of how he'd planned to do things when arriving in her world. So why not here? He could be spontaneous. Maybe even a bit romantic. Would that work? Maybe.
Of course, once he was standing there at the door waiting for someone to answer, Hatter realized he probably should've thought this through a bit better. She did live with Prince Prat, after all. He really did have to come up with a name for the king. Or, well, the mayor.
So he was a little hesitant by the time the door opened. And, apparently, rightfully so. He had to force back a groan. As it was, he couldn't even fake a smile. "Is Alice home?" he questioned, sounding a bit like a schoolboy showing up for a date. Not that he'd know anything of that. Not really how things had worked in his teen years.
