[ A young woman with a sleek black box dangling from her shoulder trudges impatiently along the path between a barn and the main building. She's disgruntled looking and sounding! ... The mumbles under her breath are nigh incomprehensible, but hey

*she gazes curiously at Lotta as she walks down the path, frowning lightly, before giving her characteristic gentle smile*

Excuse me? Miss? Are you alright...?

[hartlyworking]

[ Stops because holy crap human contact. ]

Am I... what? Am I alright? ... Ain't got no bruises or nothin', but I sure ain't alright, for one thing!

[ Actually looks at Dahlia. ]

... Well ain't you Miss Prim an' Proper? What's a gal like you doin' on a farm? ... 'S mattera fact, what am I doin' here? You know where we are?

[sweetandbitchy]

*she's trying to actually make sense of what she's saying, but nods in all the right places anyways* Ah, well, that's good then...

*a surprised pause* Miss Prim and Proper? Ah-ha, I wouldn't say that, miss... *small smile* This place is called Fende Farm- apparently, people from all sorts of different times and worlds have been, ah... kidnapped, I suppose- for lack of a better term-, by someone or something, and brought here.

At least, that's the story I've been told, miss. But from what I've seen, I don't doubt that it's true.

Well, back where I'm from, gals wearin' frilly pink clothes an' carryin' lacy parasol--

[ Puts hands on hips. ]

K-kidnapp...

[pinkapplehunter]

[hartlyworking]

W-WHAT IN THE SAM HILL ARE YOU?!

[AN AAALIEN, LOTTA. AN AAAALLLIEN]

[hartlyworking]

T-t-that don't tell me nothin'! Look atcha! You's pink as a pig's belly! Round, too! And them eyes... they ain't normal!

It...

Is that a costume or somethin'?

[ IS HOPING REAL BAD ]

[s0litary_beauty]

This place is called Fende Farm. None of us are sure how we got here, or how to leave...

[hartlyworking]

Y'all end up on a doggone farm and you don't know how you got there?

...

Well, that happened to me, too. 'Cept I used to be a farm gal, once.

But I ain't convinced you tellin' me everything I need to know! This some kinda joke, ain't it?

[s0litary_beauty]

It's not a joke, something brought us all here against our will.

There is more you need to know... First, don't hug anyone. Hugging turns people into animals. Two, don't eat any of the candy here, it causes strange things to happen, like age changes...

Uh, I'm Kira Izuru, it's nice to meet you, despite the circumstances.

[hartlyworking]

Huggin' turns people into animals, and th' candy's drugs.

Uh huh.

Well, I ain't gonna just take yer word for it. I'm a photojournalist, not no stray hen. I get to the bottom of everything, so this ain't gonna be no different, you hear?

[ Scoff. ]

...Oh. The name's Lotta. Lotta Hart. And don't you go forgettin it', Ki... is that Chinese or somethin'?

[whitexempress]

A-are you feeling okay, miss..?

[hartlyworking]

What's it look like to you, kid?

[whitexempress]

I-I suppose you're not.

[hartlyworking]

Shucks. Don't go 'round lookin' like that. I'm just confused, s'all. Didn't mean to startle ya.

I'm Lotta, and, uh... wow. You ain't look like no one I done seen 'fore. Where you from?

[fullcoloredsky]

[approaches cautiously, making a low humming noise.]

[ we stumble upon the lotta outside of her natural habitat ... ]

[hartlyworking]

[ Continues grumbling for a moment, pauses, and then ... ]

What's that racket?

[fullcoloredsky]

[has not actually notice Lotta was talking about her, and is now making a low whining noise.]

[hartlyworking]

[ Looks up because what the crap! ]

...L-lawd.

[ Clears throat. ]

And just what in the world you think yer doin', girl?
