Of course, Alice could see the hurt faces and most definitely didn't want her best making them. Apparently dance bargains worked wonders, though. Was it that easy? She tilted her head for a moment and considered exactly how torturous dancing would be. If Dora continued to let her stand on her toes.... minimal movement... hm...
