Static turns to you, shaking his head, "There are so many people we have met on our journey, friends...
Who should we speak to first?

“Ah… No no, like I said I haven’t seen your brother…
Although, the flowers say somebody had trampled through here rather rudely earlier.
Perhaps it was him, they said he seemed to be in a rush towards the castle… Hm...”
The Garden Hostess nodded, before looking to a flower and nodding,
“Oh, and that he was alone. I think you’ll need to speak to somebody else for a better story, I apologize.”

Static sighs, turning to you with a nod, "Who should we speak to next?"

“Oh, I’ve always been aware of who your brother is…
But wouldn’t you agree that this way of finding him was more deviously fun?”
The Cheshire Cat grinned, before her bright eyes narrowed, “I tried to have fun with him as well,
but he didn’t seem too keen to play by the rules and opted to fly over the maze instead. She would know...”
The Cat’s body materialized, swiveling her finger in the air before pointing to Frizz,
“After all, she was with him. Hm~ After that, I lost track of him…
But it was fortunate, we wouldn’t have met otherwise, would we?”
She purred mischievously as Static shifted uncomfortably.

"Hmm... But I do know who you should be speaking to next~"

“Huh? When would I have had time to see him?”
The White Rabbit laughed, shaking his head, “You know I’ve been running around, you were following me weren’t you?”

Static sighed in worry, nodding, “I thought as much… it seems The Cheshire Cat fooled me again…”

“Hey don’t worry about it. But yeah, I would have been upfront with you if I’d run into him. Good luck huh?”
The White Rabbit spun to leave, pausing before glancing over his shoulder, "Hey... You want some advice?"

The Caterpillar slowly blew out a puff of smoke, “Your brother… An interesting character, is he not?”

“So you’ve met him?” Static gasped in surprise, gazing up at the Caterpillar,
“Please... Tell me, can you help verify he did no wrong?”

“Unfortunately, I have not had the pleasure, as we have discussed earlier,” The Caterpillar gave a gentle smile,
“But I have seen a hint of his presence in our land… I cannot confirm nor deny any wrongdoing accused of your brother.
However, I can lead you towards a figure who may be able to help…”

Static approaches the once boisterous tea party
and is perplexed when he finds it deadly silent and seemingly abandoned.
Cups are scattered, tea spilled, the tablecloth is askew.
Static frowns in concern, approaching the table where something catches his attention.

Answer: I'm in the teapot

Static lifts the lid to the teapot, leaning in before gasping in surprise
as a sleepy head pops out of the top of it, yawning and slowly blinking. The Dormouse smiles at him, “Good bye.”

“I’m sorry, excuse me I... was wondering if you had seen my brother earlier.” Static stammered worried.

The Dormouse tilted his head, bringing his finger to his mouth as if thinking, before lazily nodding his head, “I did.”

Gasping in surprise, Static leaned in closer, “Please… Will you tell me what happened?”

The Dormouse stalled again, zoning out for a moment, “Humm… We met and spent the whole day together.
We did a lot of fun stuff and ate good food.”

“So you’re saying he was in your sights the entire time?”

“Yes,” The Dormouse nodded.

“And he did not sneak off to do anything nefarious?”

“I’m sure of it,” The Dormouse nodded again with a sleepy expression.

Static sighed in relief, offering the man a smile, “This is incredible, thank you…
Would you be able to attend his trial and testify this to the queen?”

“I’ll rush over there…” The Dormouse yawned, slowly dipping back into his teapot.
