luckily it wasn't that it was lost in translation, texas had thought a pair of sharp wolf teeth coming down might not be the best of ways to start one's day. even if she's careful, there was the fact she's learned not everyone knows about lupo having differences in their bodies. unfortunately for alice, she's about to be the bearer of bad news while also holding out her fork. a fluffy egg white for her in exchange. texas could tell one of them was smoking twig, naturally, that's a perk of having senses beyond the norm of the people she's met. many of them were interested in her tail and ears.

some tried asking to pet them, others made it a game to try and get her to wag her tail or wiggle them when she doesn't do necessarily either of those things. another part that might make her stick out more from the cheshire cat himself, texas not speaking in cryptic riddles aside.
"I do feel that way. Sometimes it's harder to confront the past....even if I did return to my second home for a time. The third is....there's plenty wrong with it too, but I like it. The people wandering the streets and the people I care about most are there." but that doesn't mention the other issue, her childhood friend. her friend, who was there now and ready to taunt texas, loom behind her like a shadow that'd never go away. texas did consider for a moment how much is okay to speak about from her own history. alice didn't seem the type to force someone into a friendly chat about old wounds and scars.

it felt as if there were similarities. something there that sticks out in a connection and understanding. she's understood that too well, when she gets this feeling that it means much more. being able to connect is one thing, and it reminds her strongly about how the house pushes together people, encourages them to indulge in hedonism or form these bonds as survival. to have someone that they can rely on.
"It was better I left the first two, the first was my birth country and the second was the country my nonno came from and spoke fondly about to me in stories it changed a lot from those tales." if one listens closely, that siracusan word she used is, indeed, italian. similar in structure from what she learned. she learned more words here that she didn't know before in addition to that. such as burdenbeasts and clawbeasts not being terms others used or finbeasts.

"The resort, by the way, is not something to take lightly." she did feel the need to give her a warning, from how alice seems clueless it was better that way. it was also best to clear up any thoughts that might suggest her and others might desire to stay within the resort. nobody wants to with the trade-off it offers. not when it involves needing to have sex to live, really to have sex for just about anything. "When I arrived here....I was put on auction. Later I was told by a friend from the same world as me that the food provided by the House itself is spiked, the drinks are too. The only restaurant that doesn't is the Red Cardinal."
