The Hawaiian, on being left alone, hesitated for a moment between the two doors. In an instant, Nani gathered up a few books, wrinkled her nose, and opened the door to the left.
The path led her to a beautiful dining room. Curse luxury, she thought, with a hint of jealousy written all over her face. Middle-class life was never an ideal financial state, was it? Well, for now she’d pretend to be something she wasn’t – rich.
“Pass me the tea . . .” she said flatly, gingerly wrapping two slender fingers around the delicate handle of the tiny cup before her.
“King Richard, you may kiss the royal butt.” She said, eyes closed, a snicker starting to her lips.
“These teacups are so cute!” she exclaimed suddenly, opening her eyes to inspect the teacup. Yes, she wasn’t accustomed to seeing such finery back home. She was used to just working, lounging about at home, and sleeping. The simple life.
“Er, on second thought, don’t kiss the royal butt. You are not worthy.” She said randomly, balancing the books she had brought along for the stroll on her head.
Yeah . . . the books were a substitute for the crown she did not have.
[xP Nani thinks she’s by herself, which is why she’s acting a little weird. Come on, we all do strange things when we’re by ourselves! XP Anyway, here’s the thread, Levi!]

Blue smoke floated out from the fireplace in the castle, where a financially troubled Hawiian woman was pretending to be the exact opposite of herself-- a rich bum. The blue smoke that had come from the fire place covered the entire shiny floor of the Castle, taking away from the mystique of this beautiful castle.
From the fire place the Caterpillar finally crawled, slithering to the top of the mantle on the fire place, where he knocked over a display china plate and a photo of a face-character of Cinderella. "You," He approached the Hawaiin through words. "Who are you?" He asked, this was a common question that he asked all the characters he met, so he did not consider it rude.
"What is that you have?" Asked Mr. Caterpillar un-specifically, not even referring to anything that she may have posessed. You see, Mr. Caterpillar was like all the other creatures of Wonderland - He made no sense, and tended to be random, but in a more ... classy way than the other Wonderland figures.

The harsh voice of the caterpillar threw the poor girl into such a scare that she lost her equilibrium, together with her buoyancy, and the Hawaiian fell on her bottom with a loud smack, letting out a surprised yelp. She was now lying on the table, blinking.
“OUCH!” she cried, pulling her knees to her chest, embarrassed. She wanted to crawl into a hole and die right now. Oh, the thought tempted her to do just that, really. She could see it now, golly, the girl would rather eat dirt than face her humiliation. She repressed a gasp when she beheld the strange, lovely creature.
When it talked, she couldn’t believe much of what she was hearing, and, because of this, she screamed even louder than before:
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
She fell off the table, shivering, unable to assimilate that there was a talking bug in the dining room. That had to be the biggest worm – caterpillar she'd ever seen in the history of caterpillars!
“I’m Nani,” she began, breathing irregularly, looking like a madwoman. “Don’t hurt me . . . I’ve got a kid back home and a few aliens to take care of! I - I HAVE NO INSURANCE!”
She blinked.
Then screamed again.

The human-sized Caterpillar looked upon the woman with displeasure as she screamed and shouted. Slithering down to the floor that was now blanketed by blue smoke, he looked at her with his small face of displeasure and said, "You're starting quite a rumpus! Oh, where can I have a quite smoke?" Saying the last line in a bit of dispair. "I'm afriad you wouldn't know." Frowning, he slid across the black and white tiles towards the woman who was in the feetle position, and he poked her in the side with his hookah. "Please!," He exclaimed, noting that she wouldn't stop shouting and screaming. "you're starting a rumpus!" The green insect told the woman.
"You're making me feel quite contrary ..." Scowling, he stared at the woman. "Who ... are you?"

Her apprehension had melted away, even in such a vulnerable position, when the billowing smoke from the hookah cleared to reveal the mass of green. She hissed and coughed under the hookah and slapped it away with her hand, using her other one to pinch her nose shut.
Nani made her way next to him when she received his rather snappy reply, adjusting her top indignantly to apologize, even if a little embarrassed. “Uh, was that humpus or rumpus? I didn’t quite hear correctly.” She said, scratching her head.
*THIS IS TOTALLY AN INSIDE JOKE, PEOPLE*

*LAUGHS. hahaha, great use of that joke. xDD*
The Caterpillar gave Nani an odd look and glared at her. "I said ... rumpus!" Shouted the creature rudely, looking over Nani. "Now ... who ... are ... you?" He asked. "Now, tell me, what is a humpus?" What an odd word! Never had he heard of it.
