"Hm... I'm bored..." Katharina muttered, hanging upside down off the edge of the bed, watching Alice idly play with two dolls. The little figure seemed engrossed in the imaginary world she was creating, manipulating the miniatures that, curiously, resembled Katharina and Ada.
Ada, seated at the table and scribbling intently in a thick, ornate book, raised an eyebrow in response. "You've been away for months, and now you're bored? Sounds like a joke."
Katharina sighed dramatically, stretching out her arm as if reaching for an invisible support. "Ugh... I don't know... nothing feels exciting anymore."
Roxanne, lazily reclining in a nearby armchair, was engrossed with a tray of sweets that seemed to never empty. Even so, a hint of discontent slipped into her voice. "He didn't even come to see us... went straight to talk to his mother instead."
