pantheraleo | 1st Roar [Action/Video]

[The last thing Simba had known, he was in the desert, newly exiled from the Pridelands. He had wandered for what felt like forever before passing out from sheer exhaustion and dehydration. Now, he was slumped on the rooftop of Luceti's schoolhouse, snoozing away with his journal acting as a pillow. Eventually the cub began to stir, and as he did so, leaned to far to the side.

He was suddenly wide awake as the little lion began to tumble and roll down the side of the roof. Desperately trying to stop himself, Simba's claws scratched and scrabbled for purchase, taking some shingles with him as he went. The inevitable occured and he went sailing off the edge, with his claws finally hooking in, causing Simba to dangle several feet above the ground. His journal had fallen as well, hitting the ground in such a way that it came open and triggered the video feed.

Those watching the journals will have a ground view of the cub as he dangles from the school's roof.

Eyes wide in terror, Simba tries to get himself back up before he falls, but to no avail. Quickly his mind goes back to a recent incident where he clung to the spindly remains of a tree while wildebeest thundered past him. Tears spring to his eyes, for he knows his dad won't be there to rescue him this time. So he does the only thing he can think to do, and screams.]

HEEEEEEEELP!

Um... okay. So it's like me... but with stripes like a zebra. [Weird.]

Well... yeah. We live together in a group called a pride.

[He sighs a little. He -use- to live with them.]

Zebra? [What is the world is a zebra? Ah, no, it's not important. Their coming closer to the Welcome Center, and Miyabi still has so many questions and things to tell to Simba, only she's a little hesitant to do the latter.]

Oh, that's so different from the wild cats I know... They live by themselves. Did you have any brothers or sisters?

By themselves? Really? I guess that's kinda like leopards and cheetahs, huh? Nope, I don't have any.

[Simba continues to look around as they walk along, taking in all the tall, strange structures.]

[Leopards and cheetahs? Again, creatures Miyabi's not familiar with. What kind of place does Simba come from, she wonders, to have so many kinds of animals...]

Your home sounds amazing, Simba. I've heard of almost any of those animals before. We don't have many where I'm from, because it's always very cold, and there are big, scary monsters that can easily gobble them up, too. [She looks over at the little guy, noticing how he's looking around, so much like a curious little child. It's really cute.]

...I don't supposed you can read, can you?

Wow, really? It's always warm where I come from.

[Simba doesn't really know what it's like to be in a cold place. Never seen snow or any of that. Winter will be... interesting for him.]

Read?

[Always warm? Ugh, she'd probably not like that very much... Coming from a land of ice and snow, it's hard on her whenever it gets too hot. Even in Luceti sometimes, when the summers get unbearable, Miyabi has to stay indoors and just not do anything.]

Yes, read. It's a thing many of the people - people like me - can do. There's a Guide in the journal we're all given that details everything you really need to know about Luceti. It's...really useful. Maybe once we get to the Welcome Center, some of the staff can read it out loud to you.

[A messy trainwreck, but...yeah. He needs to find out eventually. Poor thing.] If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to answer them myself right now.

Oh, okay.

[He guesses that would be helpful, but kinda just shrugs it off. Really his only needs are food, water, and shelter. Plus it doesn't matter a whole lot to him if he knows much about this place or not. He's not especially concerned about being somewhere he's unfamiliar with... yet anyway.

Other questions hm? He has to think about that.]

What was that thing I was on?
