Furry World/Male Dragon-Rabbit/Visit the break room (afternoon)
From Create Your Own Story
You decide you really should go get something to drink. Capable as you are, you need to stay hydrated. So you head to the break room.
Stepping inside, you see the calico girl that you met earlier. She's still dressed in her pink bathrobe. You can't remember her name. But there is also another person here you haven't met yet, a lemur with an especially long, striped tail. His markings make him look kinda like a raccoon. He's reading a newspaper and sipping on a cup of coffee.
The cat looks up as soon as you walk in and says, "Hi again, Ron." She sets down her book and walks over to you. "How was your tour?"
You smile back. "It was good! I'm getting a feel for the place. And, uh, I got hired."
The feline gives you a sly smile. "Signed the papers, eh? Good, that means we can all welcome you properly." She moves closer to you, coming within inches. She is a bit taller than Rebecca, you notice as she brings her muzzle close, locking her gaze with yours. "So, welcome to Mariposa."
You can't help but glance down at her generous cleavage, visible from this angle under her fluffy robe. But then you return her gaze and just say, "Thanks. Er... remind me of your name?"
She says, "Valerie. Don't worry, you'll get to know me VERY well." She sidles up to you in a warm, delicate hug, and leans forward to bring her muzzle closer to yours. "Very soon, I hope."
The lemur snorts from a couple tables over. "Get a room, you two."
Valerie rolls her eyes and sticks her tongue out at him. "Shut up, Jim. Come meet our new guy."
The lemur, whose name is apparently Jim, gets up and saunters over to you. He seems very casual, perhaps even a bit gruff, as he sticks his hand out to you. "Name's Jim. You're Ron, right?"
"Yes sir," you reply, shaking the lemur's hand.
Jim nods. "Good to meet ya. Heard Jenny brought you around, figured if I got ta see ya, things probably went well. So, here we are. Grats, kid."
You smile. "Thanks. What do you do here?"
"I'm a jack of all trades, ya might say. I do a little of everything. Cameras, editing, ordering stuff, cleaning the floors, fixin' things, you name it. Been here almost as long as Barb."
Valerie says, "Jim's the only person in the studio who just works here."
You're puzzled. "What do you mean?"
Jim says, "Got no balls, boy. I'm what you folks call a eunuch. By choice, too. Just got no interest in sex, but I'm happy to make it all look good fer the audiences. Don't mind it none, just not interested in participatin'."
You nod. "Never figured I'd meet someone like you. Interesting."
"Yep. Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I don't mind. Helps me get my job done without bein' distracted. Gotta have someone around here with a level head, know what I mean?" He glances at Valerie, who just rolls her eyes at him. "Anyway, I'll be going now. See ya at the meetin'." With that, Jim leaves the room, leaving you alone with Valerie.
You still have a puzzled expression. "Is he always like that?"
Valerie chuckles. "Oh yeah. He's a no-nonsense guy. A little hard to get to know at first, but he's sweet under it all. Just likes to get things done."
"Makes sense." You then head for the drink cooler and grab a bottle of water and a cola. The calico invites you to sit with her.
