Fingers tapped the glass table to the beat of the classical tune that played softly in the background. Tea was everywhere, held in a variety of different tea pots of all shapes and sizes. The Hatter liked tea, and couldn't choose just which one to have for this very special occasion, thus why she had just brought them all out, all sixty-seven tea pots, each holding a different flavor.
A devilish smile played about her pale lips as she poured herself another cup, this time a strawberry mango sort of tea. “Delicious, think not, Miss Hare?” Hatter asked as she used her toes to pick up a spoon and add just one scoop of sugar into her cup. “Ah, yes, the lemon milk tea has a unique taste. Would you prefer some chai tea instead?” The March Hare didn't actually reply, instead sat silently in her chair, much like a stuffed rabbit toy.
...Which was because that's what she was. A simple toy, yet Hatter's best and only friend. A stuffed animal friend was better than no friend, after all. Most people believed Hatter to be mad, thus the name “Mad Hatter”. It was the nice way of saying they thought she was on drugs (which wasn't the case, by the way.) She was simply an oddball, dubbed so by the Queen herself.
It all started when Her Majesty requested a special tea from Hatter's tea shop, and during the entire process, she had managed to piss the Queen off by blabbering on about trivial things (Hatter still argues to this day that those subjects are not trivial, except only to minds too incompetent to understand... She even said that to the Queen's face.) Being 'mad' wasn't exactly too far from the truth, Hatter was rather strange, talking to herself and coming up with crazy inventions and whatnot, but she wasn't full out mad. If anything, she'd call herself “gifted”. She asked questions without answers, she had answers with no questions, and if that is what makes a person mad, then so be it, she was mad.
Hatter shook her head to clear the thoughts of the Queen from her mind, her medium, pitch black hair getting all the more messier under that tall top hat. Reaching for a new tea cup with her pinky, she reached for a bright orange tea pot with her free foot, pulling both closer so she could poor the March Hare her cup of chai. Carefully, she placed the cup in front of the rabbit doll and smiled.
“Merry Unbirthday, Miss Hare. Cheers.”
