*Kitty has found her own animal, ironically a small kitten whom she's been sitting in her room with trying to use various necklaces and ribbons as makeshift collars. She's just tied a bright red ribbon around its' neck in a large bow, when she hears a familiar voice outside*
Henry! That's him, I'd know that voice anywhere! *she immediately jumps off of the bed with the kitten right at her heels and dashes off into the corridor. Upon seeing him she makes a beeline right for him, wrapping her arms around him*
Henry! Oh Henry they've gotten you too! I can't believe you're really here, I've been so scared and so worried.
[The jaguar comes to lay in front of the kitten, before looking up at Henry.] Kathryn! How good it is to see you. I was alarmed when I had awoken and you weren't at my bed. I feared the worst, before realizing this was not my bed, nor my castle. Prithee, what is this madness?
*hasn't quite let go yet, she really doesn't want to. The kitten just settles itself down, looking as though he would love to tear the bow off but won't*
I don't know what's going on! I woke up all alone too, and I was afraid something terrible had happened to you and I just don't know what I'd do if it had.
*she looks up at him* The...well he calls himself the house's butler...he told me that we've all been brought here by some strange author person with some odd sort of witchcraft! Apparently she wants people to be in her story!
*starts speaking very rapidly* I told him I wanted no part in any of it at all and I wanted to go home right that minute back to you, but he said we can't go home.
[He softens a bit, a bit more comfortable now that his Kitty is there.] It's alright, Kitty, it's alright. We shall figure out this witchcraft together and whomever is responsible will pay for their crimes.
[You did not answer his question. Henry does not like being taken like this. The jaguar stands in front of Henry.]
[Henry's hesitant, but he looks over this Kio person, seems nonthreatening. But one really never knew with magic.] I am King Henry VIII. How does a loyal subject of England not know his king? Prithee, peasant, tell me where I am.
[Oh, goodness. This one just reeks of entitlement. Sebastian halts in front of him.]
Hello, good sir. May I be of assistance? I am--
[--That is quite a lovely soul in the shape of a large beautiful feline. It might actually be the most amazing thing he's ever seen, as if someone had made a giant sculpture of a breathtaking woman out of the world's most gourmet chocolate. So tantalizing, and yet completely edible. He is rendered completely speechless, staring at it.
He takes an unconscious step toward the jaguar, beckoning it to come toward him.]
It does seem a number of us have been bestowed companion animals, sir. I myself have a frog, and I've been unable to set it free in the garden as I'd intended. It continues to follow me wherever I go.
[He drops slowly to one knee, holding a hand out to possibly stroke the jaguar on the head. Just a small touch can't hurt. Oh, goodness, so very tempting, how is it possible that he'd already snacked just this morning...]
Mine, however, prefers not to speak in the presence of others...
Well, that seems silly. If you are not shy, why should she be? I'd like to meet another [Lilith sniffed at his hand, but stopped, eying him carefully.]
We did not have them where I came from. I can't say I'm used to talking animals.

[Kio mutters to the panda] It's okay Lei-chan. [Then to Henry] Hi there!

You there, tell me, where am I? Is this some doing of a witch?

Did you just get here? I'm Kio! What's your name?

[the bird flutters a little on his shoulder]
And ask more politely next time! Don't you have any manners!?

How dare you speak to the king like that. A lowly peasant?! Keep your place, boy.

Oh... what a... rare beauty indeed...

[The jaguar sat proudly next to Henry, but then moved cautiously toward the other person.]
Oh, her... she just showed up when I did. I don't know what to make of it. I've only ever heard of these beasts living in the far east.
Beast? I am no more a beast than you are. [Stops and looks back at Henry.]
[Henry continues to ignore it.]
