Introduction
[You wake up in a bed.
A rather comfy bed, but as you open your eyes, you realize that this room is not one you’ve ever been in before. And even the most villainous of you should notice that something is immediately very off by how morbid your room looks. While generally clean, it looked dark and like it was a part of a very old house.
And that “Rest in Peace” throw pillow really isn’t doing the room any favors.
Meanwhile, on the dresser on top of your new notebook, there is also a message:]
When the clock strikes 13 o’clock. You must all meet in the stretching room for a special announcement.
[Well, it would be rude to refuse an invitation, right?
As soon as you leave your room, you notice a stark difference between the bedroom and the rest of the building. It looked like it hadn’t been kept up in ages, and it shows with how everything is caked in dust or covered in cobwebs. But judging by the other bedroom doors, possibly with other people peering out at the same time you, at least you’re not alone in this strange situation.
As you explore the rest of the first floor of the mansion, you’ll come to realize that, besides the bedrooms, the whole place is rather decrepit and dimly lit. While all rooms may provide a great interest in you, the the bios of all your foolish mortals might be useful to you, especially if you enjoy finding out how much your new captor has learned about you.]

Normal stuff, normal people, a lion, a closed door.
A lion.
There's a lion in here, and it's tearing apart a pillow. Did it eat someone?
Wendy doesn't know, but by god she's stopped herself and come back to peer through the doorway at this sight, while being as quietly as hopefully possible.
...Until she sneezes, that is. Because feathers.]
...Oops.
no subject
She gasps in a 'huh' when she hears that sneeze, and then she sneezes. Which makes her laugh even more.]
Why would they stuff egret feathers into skins anyway? And what kinds of skins are these?
[You know. Casual.]
no subject
[It talks- Actually no, she shouldn't be too surprised about this. Lots of things talk in Gravity Falls. Some things that talk in Gravity Falls don't have mouths.]
I mean, yeah, sure. You can talk. That happens. So, just saying, if you won't eat me, that would be great.
[Might as well get that out of the way!]
no subject
[Of course that happens what kind of world would we live in if the king of beasts didn't talk?]
Well, to be honest, I try not to make a habit of eating monkeys, and you're like, the least appetizing monkey I've ever seen, so.
[No offense.]
no subject
[Idk, ask the gnomes in Gravity Falls or something.]
Whoa, whoa... [She's actually stepping into the room, arms waving in front of her as she tries to pieces together her response in a way that would not piss off a lion.] Actually, I'm not a monkey. I'm a Human. There's, like, kind of a difference.
[Second, wow. she got burned by a lion.]
no subject
Well, I've never heard of a human before, but you look like a monkey without fur. You... are pretty good at walking around on your hind paws, though, so that's impressive.
[Sorry, Wendy. You're a hairless monkey.]
no subject
[Hoo boy
this is neat]
I guess that's how my Sunday is working out.
no subject
[Feet, paws, same difference. What the fuck is a clothes, though?]
Do your lions really not talk?
[That's Upsetting.]
no subject
[She looked sure of herself for a second.]
Usually they're too busy trying to eat us if we get close to them, instead of talking to us? So, I don't know.
I mean, personally, I've never run into a lion before.
no subject
Our usual prey isn't... monkeys. I mean, I guess I've known lionesses to bring home one once in awhile but...
Hey, you've run into one now!
no subject
[In fact, she's gonna reach into her pocket, pull out her phone and.... yep she's taking a picture of this.]
Definitely going to show all my friends when I get out of here.
no subject
Show them what? What is that? What did you do?
no subject
[...Wait.] Oh, yeah, lion. Uh, here, take a look at this.
[And she'll show Kiara her phone, with a somewhat grainy picture of... her! There's a tiny Kiara in this phone.]
no subject
Woah!
[She leans in close to stare.]
It looks like Rafiki's drawings but... not. It looks like me!
no subject
[She has no idea what a 'Rafiki' is, but hey, whatever makes this better.]
I just took your picture, dude. This little machine can take a bunch of them.
no subject
[She still doesn't know what a picture or a machine is, but that is a tiny her! Magic.]
I'm impressed! And you can just, carry those little not-drawings around with you in that thing?
no subject
Sure can. It's kind of like my life is in this thing. [She laughs at her own self-deprecation.]
Come to think of it, this is pretty much the first time I've ever met a lion, so... [...] You have a name?
no subject
[Sort of. Close enough. At least she's excited about it?]
Oh, right. Where are my manners? I'm Kiara!
no subject
[It's close. Definitely close enough. She'll have to talk to Fiddleford or something to get a better explanation.]
I'm Wendy. [She jerks a thumb at herself.] Nice to meet ya, Kiara. That's a pretty cool lion name.
no subject
Wendy is a pretty cool primate name.
