video, open to both courts (action if you are at the barrel)
[ Alice has been at the Barrel for a few weeks now. No one's asked her to cook and clean, but it's been a bit of an engraved habit brought over from her time in London. It's only through getting children's clothing and interacting with the nearby town that it's been plaguing the back of her mind. Unlike the last time she's popped on the lockets back in December, Alice looks healthier, but she is still pretty thin.
As usual. And as usual, her white rabbit is sitting there beside her, munching away at a bowl of food. She's not good at public speaking. ]
Hello.
These may be strange times to open a dialogue about this subject while both of our courts prepare for another skirmish. There are plenty of natives here of various ages who have been hit the most by war, especially children. I used to be the maidservant of an orphanage back in Whitechapel London.
[ Her face only flashes with a hint of pain when she mentions it. ]
Houndsditch Home for Wayward Youth—if you heard of it. And the children there came from similar backgrounds, that they were all traumatized and lost family either by sickness, death, or murder. These children are often overlooked, sometimes they are swept up by those with ill intentions and treated even worse. But they are still children and they still have pieces of their innocence left.
I may not have the resources nor the... capacity right now to replicate that orphanage, but I still want to help the youngest natives here have the smallest comforts like food or clothing. I've only had a handful of opportunities in Redgate and the Station to make good on my word and clearly I need the additional hands.
In addition to natives being sent away from the path of war, I hope that there can be a way to provide resources for them or find them the appropriate care somewhere down the line. I know that it is silly to think of such a thing when all the adults in this world are preparing for battle, but they are so young and they deserve so much more while they are being guided to safety.
But if I were to oversee these things, I reserve the right to be very picky. The children I cared for weren't even spared from the cruelty of adults, even the proprietor of that orphanage.
Surely my friends will be thrilled if I focused my attention on children rather than them. I know they must tire of my nagging.

I hope I do well enough with mine.
And you are more than welcome, of course.

I would always like where I live to be a safehaven for you.

Of course. That's what the spires are made for, correct?

[ As sad as it is, it's nice to know who shares a similar background to her. ]

I have been speaking to a young Miss Ariadne, recently. She suggested that we three get lunch together. I think it is a fine idea.

[ Well, hey, if Ariadne joins them, then it isn't so bad. ]
That sounds lovely. Possibly something I can easily do when things calm down... permitting if I don't have nanny duties, of course.

I would like that, very much. Hopefully before the war starts up in earnest. I doubt we will have very much time after that.

Well, for that, I cannot make promises, seeing as I am caring for a friend who is... a bit indisposable in a sense.
[ It's a nice way to say that he's shrunk, isn't it? ] But I will try, after I make sure he doesn't stray too far.

[And they of all people need them.]
