"Hmm." It's little more than a hum of confirmation.

But it's confirmation all the same. Alice didn't quite - or fully - intend to make this about her, but she realises that there's not much of a road back from this now, especially with what Merwen is saying.

At least she can keep from fully dumping all her personal details onto the other. Alice is a bit more guarded when it comes to that sort of thing anyway.

"The 'real' world didn't make much sense either, anyway." After all, why would so many children be hurting in a world that makes sense? No hurt on the part of a child ever makes sense, as far as Alice is concerned. They should be leading better lives. "So why not think of a world that also didn't make sense, but was at least fun?"
