I was a big fan of the old Alice in Wonderland when I was younger. This story was pretty faithful to the original, and I loved the reactions of the characters. I love the caring nature of Alice when she tries to apologize to the doorknob.
I do hope to see more of this story, and would like to see where you would take it in the next chapter. I hope there might be more moments with her feet (playful or unaware) in the future, but its just a suggestion. Good luck with the story.

I appreciate that. I'm somewhat of a slave for details, so I watched the scene several times over trying to get as much detail into the story as possible. I also wanted to maintain Alice's overall behavior in the film while going down a different road. Figured she would still be the same curious, yet considerate young lady as she was portrayed in the Disney film.
I'll try for more one-shots in this story, though they won't be interconnected with each other (obviously). Basically they will commit to the original movie up until a certain point when I take a gamble and enter into the realm of hypothetical. Anyway, thanks for the encouragement.

I was hoping someone who knew their way around the keyboard and had a way with words would make such a story. The ever present "what ifs" that I entertained when I saw the movie now being put to print.
Thanks for trying your hand at this and I do hope you do manage the rest/more.
It was faithful up until this version of Alice opted to not cry an outright pool and still stayed within the voices of the characters afterward. I was entertained by the descriptions and how Alice tried to make amends.
Though the Doorknob can't very well see the world from his newfound position tucked away. I would think he would be on her shoe like a buckle or in her hair in her bow or tied somehow. The shoe would jostle though, and the crown of her head would just afford him a view of the sky - which is still more than the walls and ceiling and floor he was bound to.

It was something of a gamble from the point Alice became a giant. I gave it a thought over about what might happen if she ate more than one "Eat Me" cake in this scene. Given the circumstance of her growth, the cake box would be somewhere in front of her, given what was seen in the film, so if she simply searched for it and had another cake, what might possibly happen? Given that I preferred a large Alice compared to a small one, I tried to end this one-shot with her staying a giant (in this case a bigger giant).
As for the Doorknob, I tried to figure what to do with him once Alice outgrew the hallway. Given her propensity to apologize when she believes she has done wrong, I figured she would bring him along as a companion of sorts to make up for her growth. Since she has placed other items in her apron in the Disney film, I figured that would be an easy enough place to store him on her journey.
Thanks for the enouragement and I'll see what I can come up with in future chapters.
