The seven coloured puppeteer, Alice Margatroid

A magician living in a western style house in the forest.

She tends to use her dolls to handle all the work while she immerses herself in her research.

'Sup, Alice! I came to visit ya!

I'm busy right now!! Come back later!!

...you're even responding through your dolls?

I was gonna ask if you're coming to the next party

I'll see if I can make time.

Also, can I have those sweets in your cupboard?

You can eat half of them.

Oh yeah, also -

...wouldn't it be easier to just answer normally?
