first lesson;

[ Dictated; after the sounds of things crashing and breaking are done with... ]

Wh—what's going on?! Timon?! Pumbaa! Where are you guys?

[ There are even more sounds now, little paws scrambling about, things being knocked over, claws scratching at the walls, windows, and door. ]

This isn't funny, you guys! Where did you put me? Let me out of here! Is this some sort of test?! I thought we were friends already! ...Oh wait, then does that mean I'm failing? I'm not supposed to panic, right?

Okay, okay! Hakuna Matata! I'm fine. Keep me in here as long as you want, I'll definitely pass! [ A beat, then more quietly. ] I wonder if there's any food in here... This is a really weird looking cave.

[ ooc; Lion cub in the lobby, if you wanna run into him! Dictated as well. It's not like he can open doors... ]

I'm fine!

[ Except he's not really. Even if the castle is heated, it's still weak compared to the level of heat he's used to. It makes being damp all the more noticable. ]

Unless there's somewhere around here with real warmth.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Um...

I suppose we could go up near one of the fireplaces around here...

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

[ Um, did you say fire?! That's never a good thing! Also it's freezing outside, how can there be fire anywhere. ]

Why would you want to go towards fire?!

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Ah- it's okay really.

Fireplaces are spots that fire is contained and controlled. We use them for warmth.

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

But that sounds dangerous! Why would you risk it? I thought humans could handle the cold better than lions.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Handle it better, yes, but we're not immune.

And there's lots of reasons we'd risk using fire, really.

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

[ Whatever. You humans officially make no sense. A complete enigma! It's interesting. But he's still not going near fire. Even he's not gonna laugh in the face of danger twice in a row. ]

Well this thing on me is working okay. I'll be fine now.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

If you say so.

[Yes Simba, this is only the start of all the confusing things that humans do. Though mostly, you'll end up just thinking their main call is "AWWWWWW" ]

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

So where am I supposed to sleep? And I need to go.

[ This is now your problem. ]

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Ah...

[Crap. Um...]

I suppose we could try to find your room- the space that belongs to you here.

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

Well hurry! I need to go really badly!

[ And he knows better than to do that in someone's cave. Er...castle. ]

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[a groan...]

Can't you do it in a litter box...?

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

A what?

[ GOD ALLEN WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO LEARN. YOU'RE REALLY STUPID. ]

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

It's...a container that cats use when they need to...go.

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

Just show me where I can go!

[ BEFORE I PEE ON YOUR STUPID, STUPID HUMAN FOOT!!!! ]

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[He groans and wishes for a flipping litter box. ]

There, in there.

[And he's getting up and going back around the corner to give you privacy]

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

[ He's looking at it like...what. WHAT IS WITH HUMANS AND BOXES AND CONTAINERS AND ENCLOSED SPACES... This is kind of degrading. But he's desperate, so he does his business, and covers it like a pro! It's kind of hard though because he's...much bigger than a normal cat.

Litter is officially everywhere. ]

Oops.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[ITS FOR HYGIENE REASONS HONEY. REALLY. He'll call out from around the corner]

Done...?

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

Hold on!

[ He's trying to bat the litter that fell out back into the box, but it's impossible to pick it up. Damn. Is he going to get in trouble?! At least the important part stayed in the box! ]

Don't be mad.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

....Why would I be mad?

[Sounds confused, a bit worried...almost scared to look because my god what did you do to the rug]

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

Some of the dirt fell out! I can't help it, it's too small for me!

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

...Oh, that's all?

Don't worry about it, all right? It'll be cleaned up.

GO THE HELL TO BED /CHOMPS

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

[ Oh okay. In that case he'll trot around the corner after Allen wuzzup. That blanket's probably in the litter mess somewhere now. ]

MY GROGGY MIND THOUGHT THAT SIMBA WAS TELLING ME TO GO TO HELL

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[He'll watch the little lion. Simba, you are easily the weirdest effing lion he has ever met, okay?]

All right...I suppose we just need to find your room now.

THAT'S RIGHT GO TO THE BAD PLACE DOWN BELOW

[justpouncing.livejournal.com]

My room?
