Dormouse / 睡鼠

The Dormouse is the sleepy third figure at the mad tea party in 180.爱丽丝梦游仙境：世界多荒诞，我也是自己的主宰（下）. The episode notes both the comic treatment of the character, including being pushed into the teapot, and the period detail that children could keep dormice as pets in teapots.

The Dormouse’s “M” story becomes another example of Wonderland Language Games: the point is not ordinary plot completion but the way sound, letter category, interruption, and dream association keep the scene moving. The character therefore helps make the tea party a small Time-Stasis System rather than a normal social gathering.

Key Claims

• The Dormouse joins creature comedy to Victorian domestic detail.
• His story shows how alphabetic constraint can replace ordinary plot causality.
• The character helps the tea-party scene feel circular, drowsy, and unrecoverable.

Connections

• Mad Hatter / 疯帽匠 and March Hare / 三月兔 - tea-party companions.
• Alice / 爱丽丝 - listener whose impatience marks the scene’s failed social logic.
• Wonderland Language Games, Dream Logic Narrative, and Time-Stasis System - concepts the Dormouse helps anchor.
