Forget all your troubles

[grimgrinningghosts]

[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?]

Woah-!

[She can't help but giggle at how fast the handshake is. Someone sure has a lot of energy!]

Squirrel Girl? Is that your actual full name? That's really neat!

[kickbuttseatnuts]

Sort of! Its kind of a code name sorta thing, but I like to use it as often as can be!

[lovelylilmouse]

A code name... That sounds so cool, it reminds me of a super hero, or something!

[kickbuttseatnuts]

[She puffs up proudly.]

That's right! You're looking at the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl!

[lovelylilmouse]

Unbeatable...? That's amazing! [It's pretty easy to get Minnie amazed, isn't it-]

[kickbuttseatnuts]

Thanks! I work hard to keep that record! Work out and junk.

[lovelylilmouse]

Oh, don't mention it!

[She giggles, and waves her off with a hand.]

[kickbuttseatnuts]

I will mention it, because it was very flattering and sweet to say and I appreciate it!

What about you, Mins? You seem like you're rocking a style of your own and chasing that bliss.

[lovelylilmouse]

[Mins...? She's already getting a nickname. How exciting! But, she can't help but to blush.]

My own style? Oh, it's nothing too big. I'm just your average, everyday mouse who loves making as many people as she can happy!

[kickbuttseatnuts]

[Gasp!]

Dude! That's awesome! I gotta tell ya, if more people thought about how to help the most anybody, we'd have a lot more good times and less crimes.

[lovelylilmouse]

Gosh! Can you imagine a world like that? That just sounds like a dream come true!

[kickbuttseatnuts]

That's the dream, alright. Less crime and, really, less kidnappings.

A lot less kidnapping would be preferred.

Like, zero, ideally.

[lovelylilmouse]

Yeah. I could do with less kidnapping.

Especially if I'm involved. Can't say I'm too big of a fan of it.
