they know he can't see it, but minerva instinctively massages the bridge of their nose as a method of curbing the brunt of their irritation before it overflows. as they listened to light's utter drivel, the white rabbit grumbles under their breath, struggling to keep from completely snapping at the man. they don't have time for this nonsense. (how ironic, that this counted as "nonsense" in wonderland.) sighing, they take in a deep breath, preparing for a conversation they really don't want to deal with right now.
