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.]

[TALKING DEMON BOX.

Jiminy is quick to scurry onto whatever ledge or doorknob he can find after seeing that giant rolling monstrosity. That thing could eat him for lunch, much less roll him under its... whatever those are. And what's that horrible noise?
]

N-no sudden movements Jiminy. Maybe its got poor eyesight.
trashcubes: (watching hello dolly again)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-12 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
[WALL-E has very good eyesight, and also very good hearing, which might be why it turns to look right at you Jiminy when you speak.]

Whoa...

[Hello. You look like someone that would be friends with our cockroach back home. WALL-E rolls a little closer to the doorknob, tilting it's head a little as it looks at Jiminy curiously.]
whistlenotchirp: (Come again)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-12 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh gee whilikers.

He stays perfectly still for a long moment, trying to gauge this strange abomination. Maybe if he waves at it, it won't hurt him? He attempts a small wave.

trashcubes: (foreign contaminant?)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-12 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh!

[Hello!! WALL-E waves back in return, before he speaks.]

WAAALLLYYY!
whistlenotchirp: (Where does that fall morally?)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-12 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[It looks like it might be attempting... words of some kind.]

...Hello there?
trashcubes: (cutest garbage man ever)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-13 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
H...Hiiii?

[Is he greeting the other properly? He thought you were supposed to start with intros but maybe you are supposed to say that first, and then...?]

Waaallllyyy...

[If Jiminy looks at him, he might notice the letters "WALL-E" stamped on his chest here in the bottom right corner...]
whistlenotchirp: (Where does that fall morally?)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-13 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
[He... grins? He's still incredibly wary of this strange box thing, but he's trying for a nervous smile at least.]

Wally, is it? W-Well, that's a fine name. Mighty fine.
trashcubes: (watching hello dolly again)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-13 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[WALL-E nods, before he then gestures to you.

What's your name?]
whistlenotchirp: (Tip of the cricket hat)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-13 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh his name, he can talk about that all day.]

Oh, little ol' me? Why, I'm Jiminy Cricket, at your service.

[Tip of the cricket hat.]
trashcubes: (foreign contaminant?)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-14 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
Jiminyyyyy... Criiickeeetttt...

[How do you like having your name repeated back to you in his robotic tone here as he tries to sound it out here?]
whistlenotchirp: (Impressed as impressed can be)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-14 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[This is extremely unsettling and he doesn't know how to deal with it. Is it a monster? Is it God Trash? Should he flee or worship?]

...Yep, ya got it! Good ol', uh, Jiminy Cricket, at your service.
trashcubes: (cutest garbage man ever)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-14 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[At that, WALL-E nods, pleased that we got it right.

He then gestures to the doorknob that Jiminy is sitting on. Why are you standing up there anyway? Do you need help getting down?]
whistlenotchirp: (Come again)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-14 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[The doorknob? Does he want to... use it????]

Sorry, uh... just up here doing... morning exercises. [He stretches to demonstrate.]
trashcubes: (attention deficit ooh shiny lights)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-15 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
[WALL-E tilts his head a little at that, before lifting his robot hands in the air above him, attempting to copy the same movement.

Like this?]
whistlenotchirp: (Impressed as impressed can be)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-15 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh! He's imitating him!

jiminy cricket is inspiring the god trash.

He smiles much more naturally at that thought.
]

Yeah, ya got it right on the money!
trashcubes: (cutest garbage man ever)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-15 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
[WALL-E makes a pleased noise of satisfaction: he's so happy that he's making this new cricket friend smile, they seemed so unhappy before...]
whistlenotchirp: (Tip of the cricket hat)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-15 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
[He's having a real hard time figuring this thing out, but it doesn't sound hunger. So he'll reluctantly sit down on the doorknob.]

Tell me big fella, you know anything about where we are?
trashcubes: (foreign contaminant?)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-15 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
[At that, WALL-E shakes their head, eyes a little downcast. Sorry buddy, we're just as confused and lost as you are here.]
whistlenotchirp: (Impressed as impressed can be)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-15 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
[Sigh.] Real pickle we're in...

Well, Wallace. You're a big fella, I'm a smaller fella. We shouldn't have too much trouble finding our way out, huh?
trashcubes: (hey I've got an idea...)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-15 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
[WALL-E nods, before the robot then holds out a hand to Jiminy, palm up.

Do you want a way down off the doorknob, or maybe even hitch a ride with us? We'll make sure you don't get stepped on if you do.]
whistlenotchirp: (Impressed as impressed can be)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-15 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
[He's still kind of nervous? WALL-E is so weird to look at for his tiny nineteenth century cricket mind.

...Ah, what's the harm?

[And he'll take a chance and hop onto his hand, floating down just a little with the umbrella. Gotta be safe.]
trashcubes: (put on your sunday clothes)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-15 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[Once Jiminy lands on the palm of his hand, the little robot will slowly and carefully transfer him to sit on our shoulder here?

Congratulations, you now have a mode of transportation and don't have to get rolled over or stepped on while we look for a way out of here.]
whistlenotchirp: (Impressed as impressed can be)

[personal profile] whistlenotchirp 2017-06-15 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow, lotta space on this shoulder! Most shoulders he plops onto are a little thinner to maneuver. It's still a little weird riding a giant box thing, but he hasn't done any harm yet. Seems like if he just avoids the tires, he and WALL-E can get along fine. He'll kind of kick back then!]

Got some broad shoulders here, Wallace. And that's a compliment mind you, not bad at all. Fella could get used to a place like this- long as you're not alarmed me scuttling about. Can't imagine that's a fun sensation.
trashcubes: (foreign contaminant?)

[personal profile] trashcubes 2017-06-15 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[WALL-E makes some sort of wavy hand gesture here, as if dismissing the concern: it's quite alright, we don't mind! We're more concerned about accidentally rolling over you than having you hitch a ride on us.]
