ok damn it... crying...
I will wait patiently for the next chapters...
I do hope the wait won't be too long.

I want to beg that you please update this story. I know its been awhile and you may have lose interest but I wanted to ask if you could maybe gain interest again and write the end of this story?

The way its left now is so heart wrenching and makes the reader want or really hope there can be a happy ending. And even if it is not a happy ending, a ending that is not the poor hatter as a mannequin, a dream daughter, and Alice gone.

Please, Please update one of the best Alice in Wonderland stories I have read.

Wonderful. Inventive and riveting. Achingly sad. I am too fond of fluff and I hope the someday ending involves the fact that Tarrant has been known to kill Time...can't he just turn him roundabout this time?

thi story is still my favorite i just finished rereading it and i think you should deffinetly write more stories your an amazing writer

Its from the bedroom scene! When Othello's about to smother her!

Where are they going to row to? Thailand?

The Opium wars were horrid, but when seen through her eyes they seem more of a matter of survival, than cruel greed.

I have to say, as an English major, that this story is intriguing. Subtlety is not often seen in a lot of fanfiction, and you certainly have a lot of it here. I find it interesting that you use so much of Hamlet, as it is the tragedy of choice for scholars. I thought instead of Lear when Alice held Tarrant "Howl Howl Oh you are men of stones" and the like. While I appreciate a good tragedy, and this is certainly a good tragedy, I'd love for this to have a happy ending. Still the slow unraveling is beautiful. "Turning and turning in the widening gyre/The falcon cannot hear the falconer;/Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;/Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,/The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere/The ceremony of innocence is drowned"

Several events had me weeping copiously, I am keeping my fingers crossed for some rather happier moments to come. Very well written and great characteriation of Hatter.

your words are magic. I am so curious about this little girl. I wish Alice loved Tarrant. :(

wow i just got really confuzed with this story...

I'm so glad you are adding to this marvelous and captivating story. I can only dream of someday writing so well and having such an intricate and fascinating plot.

This is one of my favourite stories ever.

The dreams, the puzzles, the mysteries...all done brilliantly.

I won't repeat what others have already said to you about what they've analyzed, I'll just add that I'm so very pleased that you are adding in what Tarrant actually DID to gain the ending I remember.

All the words, the horses, the daughter...I wondered if their daughter played a part. I wondered precisely what happened. I can't wait to find out. I'm on the edge of my seat, literally, with this. I lean forward, squint, and get a crick in my neck, I'm THAT intrigued. Thank you for this!

Ohh squeee!

"Tarrant, what on earth did you wish for?" asked Alice, a little exasperated.

"Toes,"said Tarrant brightly. "All ten of them. I missed them terribly, you know."

I LOVED THAT! and!

"When the time is right, my darling, you shall tell me," said the hatter firmly. "Now then - what do you say to a few weeks' holiday?"

What a perfect line to end the chapter on.

And what an imaginative, wonderful little story! Really, it was a treasure to read. I'm going to have to see what else you've written.

Aaaah! Again with your word play and the metaphor with the horses! That brought tears to my eyes when I had to go back and set them free! So beautiful and sad.

Oh, Tarrant. You poor creature.

Poor Alice!

This is just awful. (but a testament to your skill.)

You really are an artist with words. This has been such a fantastic read and I'm completely frustrated that they aren't moving forward! But it's done so well that I'm accepting it! :P

What is Alice seeing? A future with him? I hope so!

I love this child of theirs and how deeply Tarrant desires her. But where is Alice in all this? That might be cause for worry...

Wow, this is fantastic! You have an enormous talent for description and characterization. I am so happy to have found this very intriguing fic.

I love his idea expressed as a herd of ponies. I love your description of the passage of Time. Very, very interesting.

Can't wait to read more!
