She'd never really been old enough to attend her father's parties, and only ever attended the ones held by the school he worked for when the entire family needed to make an appearance, but the thought of it at all was a rather kind one as far as Alice was concerned. That and it would be rather interesting to go to any castle meant to belong to a beast. Something straight out of a fairy tale.

Went very smoothly indeed, even if Alice did wander a bit simply to look about the place; she had at least remembered not to simply walk away without a word to Luca. For all she knew he might want to come along.

Still, it wasn't something expected. At least there was some warning -the sound of a galloping chair- before the crashing toss happened. Alarmed, but at least there was enough time for her to brace. Toto caught the both of them before she could fall over, a large pillow between her and the now horse-sized Toto as the dog had lowered to be landed on. Fingers a little tight at Luca's shoulders, but it could have been worse-

"What in the world-" Alarmed still, yes. "-Are you alright?" She'd had harder falls of curse, but still.
