Forget all your troubles

[You wake up and instantly realize something is wrong.

There is a vague feeling of dread hanging in the air and, as comfortable as this bed is, there’s just something off about everything, even before you open your eyes. The dread only grows when you open your eyes and realize that you are in a completely unfamiliar room. One that has clearly seen better days at that.

As you explore your room, you will soon find a bedroom key resting on the dresser along with a note]


Welcome, esteemed guest, to our humble abode. We hope that you enjoy your stay in this Phantom Manor, as we expect you to stay with us for a very long time.

Feel free to make yourself at home as you enjoy what this manor has to offer, whether it’s the library, our projection room, or our famous wax museum. We’re sure you will find great joy

However, before you can get too comfortable, we ask you to please come to the portrait gallery at noon so we can discuss your stay here.

We eagerly await to meet you.

-Your Host


[The uncomfortable feeling doesn’t let up as you leave the safety of your bedroom. The manor seems old and decrepit, almost like it would fall over at the slightest breeze. Despite that, anyone who tries to escape will soon realize that the walls are unusually sturdy, and there are no doors that would seemingly lead to the outside world.

Still, at least you’re not alone in this scenario, if the other bedroom doors are any indications. Maybe there are a few more people coming out of their bedrooms too, so you have someone to talk toif you want to try to figure out what's going on. But if the 30 bios in the foyer hall are any indication, whoever has you here did not do this on accident. Whatever you’re here for, it seems like you’re here for a reason.

But hey, what’s the use of being pessimistic about this? Maybe it’s all an innocent situation… right?]

[He nods hesitantly, and keeps a lookout if some sort of authority were after them.]

Yaa-aaa-aa.

[Wasn't it that bird guy who seemed to be the boss of everyone around here? He quickly sketches himself and the kid running away from Mr. Arrow and shows it to him.]

Oh, him. Well, he doesn't scare me.

[Mr. Arrow is wrong about Most Things, in Pinocchio's opinion.]

[Fair enough- He doesn't want to deal with Mr. Arrows strictness either.

He throws on an undignified expression on the bird with speech bubbles. 'Blah Blah Blah']

Baa-aa!

Hey, that looks just like him!

[Although the drawing can still be improved upon, in his opinion.]

...You should give him an ugly moustache.

[listen he's a kid he's allowed to be petty]
angelgoatdemon: (a smile!!!!!!!!!)

Ya-aaa!

[Now that, he can gladly do! Mr. Arrow the Sketch gains a fuzzy moustache and a monocle.

He offers the pencil to Pinoke if he wanted in on the fun. Go forth and Destroy, Kid.]

[Perfect. A beautiful likeness.

He doesn't really have much else to add for risk of ruining the stunning portrait, but he does add a couple frowny faces around the general vicinity of Arrow on the page. All the drawing reminds him of a question he'd been meaning to ask, though.]


Hey, how come you can't talk? All the other animals here can. And most of 'em can back home, too.

[They are going to take this- house? manor? by an artistic storm.

At the question, he thinks for a few seconds then shrugs. It was complicated, but as much as he's wanted to, talking is impossible.

Lekmet explains this with a sketch of himself and a speech bubble, with the word 'TALK' crossed out in red.]

[Fair enough answer.]

Oh, okay. I know a cat who can't talk, too, but I guess I thought he just didn't want to. Or didn't have anythin' to say.
angelgoatdemon: (oh worm)

[He nods tilts his head a bit, thinking about it.

That's just how it is sometimes!

Here's a quick doodle of cats, some with speech bubble things, and some without.]
