Who: Matilda Wormwood, aka the tiny newcomer and You.
What: It's an adventure and no one can really go by an adventure alone! aka introductions and walking about the castle!
When: From the morning of February 1st and until the afternoon!
Where: all around the castle!
Rating: totally pg.
[ Matilda Wormwood had a doll that didn't belong to her.
She saved it, mind you. Rescued it to bring it back to Miss Honey but then something happened and before she knew it, a castle.
A castle! The kind that Matilda was certain she read of before but couldn't remember where. Just this made a frown make its way to her face, settling there; she never forgot a book before and she was certain she had read of a castle once.
In the time that would have taken a normal grown person to panic, Matilda clutched the doll that wasn't hers and thought of an adventure. That against all odds, she had somehow walked into one of the wonderful worlds she has read about in her books. A world where everything is beautiful and the sky is always blue and where children can play and run and read and not fear being thrown into the Chokey for hours.
She took one step forward and then another before leaning against one of the pillars, watching the world around her with a small, awe-struck smile. A child who somehow found herself in a brand new story.
After a few minutes she realized that adventure or not, Miss Honey would likely worry for her and that Lissy-Doll should be brought back to her. She also realized she as much as the castle was vast and beautiful, she was alone. Looking at the people who wandered about, she couldn't recognize a single one.
Riding up and tidying her skirt she began to walk around, peeking up at people, uncertainty written on her face. She didn't even know what questions should she ask first. Gathering up her courage she decided to begin with a very polite: ]
Excuse me - which way would take me back to where I came from, please?

Well, do you think your name fits you?
no subject
[ she tries to think of it but she can't think of anything else she'd like to be called. Her father and mother call her 'hey you' all the time anyway. But she thinks of how the name sounds on the lips of Miss Honey, warm and gentle and she smiles ]
Maybe.
no subject
[He smiles back.] I think it's a nice name. Matilda.
So. What are you doing here?
no subject
I was looking for the kitchens but I think I'm lost again.
no subject
Well. We could look for the kitchen together? Then you wouldn't be lost because we'd be together.

[ For a tiny person who just met him, the concept baffles her. ]
If it's here, I'll help you find it.
