House Designs of the G-52s
This journal entry was written for a possible script for a new limited-run reality show on WBC entitled “Lifestyles of the G-52s.” It marks one of WBC’s rare attempts to branch out into variety, since the network feels haunted by the fact their only successes come from television game shows. If the pilot doesn’t work out, then the network will release the footage as YouTube-exclusive content. That way, nothing gets wasted.
Leo the Tiger/The Marching Wonder
Leo the Tiger speaking; you also know me as the Marching Wonder. Have you ever wondered what the inside of our homes look like, especially when you consider the fact that Wildcat City is full of musicians of all kinds? Well, today we thought we would take you on a tour of those houses. They may be disappointing to some because they do not exactly fit the homes you would expect to see on shows that promote the lifestyles of the rich and famous, but if I have to be honest with you, we don’t want those lifestyles. We just want to be as normal as possible, even though being a G-52 means you are in the public eye all the time.
Wildcat City is pretty disorganized for the most part because 1) it rebelled against Zachary Chandler while he was still dictator by staying as a basic grid, and not using the star fort design many other towns, including GVS (Glenn View Springs), Arizona, eventually changed to in order to balance out with the geography and with nature, and 2) it was the basis for worldwide harassment over the groupthink issues we had, which we now know CNG had caused. Now the world is guilty of those same things, and it led us to ask ourselves, “Where did we go wrong?” Even though CNG is the guilty party, many of us felt we had nobody to blame but ourselves.
You may see a few diagonal streets here and there, though, because all the G-52s we are highlighting had their homes built especially for them. This is one way Wildcat City takes advantage of its large size as well as accounting for the Great Exodus of 2014. (That was when a ton of these furries moved out overnight, tired of the constant harassment from the outside world, and moving all over the country. Yet they took their beliefs and values with them, and so at first, many of them still didn’t even have a television set.) Prior to that, furries outnumbered humans 35 to 1, and the population was about 7 million. Now humans and furries are about equal in numbers, and the population is about 4.2 million if I did the math correctly, freeing up space for more humans or furries who want to come to Wildcat City. (It saw a few spikes and drops in its population when we had tons of refugees fleeing their hometowns during the terrorism related to the 2016 election, leading us to earn the nickname “Refugee City” for the time being. However, the population right now is at 4.2 million.)
There are certain things I am not allowed to say because it is forbidden in the G-52 Code of Conduct to give away any forbidden secrets, so we will not be covering Dark Wolf’s castle, which has the G-52 HQ inside. Nor am I including the former homes of Leo the Patriotic Lion or Tom the Patriotic Tiger, because they are now the President and Vice-President of the United States. However, the city has property in reserve so that when they transition back to civilian life outside of being a G-52, they will be easily be able to start a new chapter in their lives. We will instead be covering just a sample of the G-52s that make the news the most often, or otherwise have out-of-the-ordinary houses. (Grease, for example, just lives in a basic one-story house; nothing eye-catching about it.)
Some G-52s may have changed locations a few times, because certain streets have them as the only resident. Others, because of CNG, have the “Doctor Who” effect going for them; in other words, like the TARDIS, the house is magically but mysteriously bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.
Note all G-52 homes (including Dark Wolf’s castle) are also magically soundproof, so that if we are playing music, it does not disturb the neighbors. However, we need to sleep ourselves, so the general rule is that we don’t play anything past 10 or 11 p.m., unless there is a reason for it. (But that happens all too rarely.)
Thank you, and I hope you enjoy this series.
Let’s begin then with my home for this first episode. My home is a raised-ranch home. It has a top and bottom level, and a garage on the side. It has stairs outside that lead to the front door, and when you walk inside, you have a choice of stairs that go up or down. If you go up, you’ll find my living room, kitchen and dining room (the two are connected together as one), and a couple of guest rooms and bathrooms to go with it. Each guest bedroom has a bathroom attached to it.
If you go down, however, you’ll find the place I spend most of my time: my giant USA room. I call it that because it is decorated with Old Glory from the ceiling to the floor. The flags never touch the ground. However, the USA room doubles as my master bedroom (with a bath attached to it), and my music room, since, like many other G-52s or their allies who are percussionists (particularly the Drumbums), I have tons of percussion instruments. This is also where the TARDIS effect comes in, because it is large enough to hold a larger number of instrumentalists who make up a full orchestra, concert band, or marching band. Thus, when I have my friend Blue over (and sometimes his sister, Pink, joins us as well), I can have the full Zootopia Marching Band performing with us if necessary. (It’s more common for me to have one or two specific guests, however, such as Tom and Jerry, and their friends Puggsy and Frankie da Flea. The guest I have the most, however, is Prince Adam, the Beast in “Beauty and the Beast.” All these animals had CNG affect them as well, so they can also summon their instruments as needed, make them disappear, change clothes magically on the fly by waving their hands in front of their faces, and making portals for them to go from place to place quicker. That way, if I want Blue to march in obedience to our commands, and the Beast is to give the commands, he can be there on time.)
I try to keep my percussion instruments organized because there are so many, and because I can summon them on the fly, and make them disappear as needed. However, because I am at a high-ranking level on the musical payroll system, the authorities requested that the instruments stay organized in typical symphony orchestra fashion, and I have done so. Due to the fact I have so many, however, I have them surrounding the area where the brass, woodwinds, and string players would sit or stand, since I have chairs for them to sit in, and a conductor’s stand with music stand for me to stand on. Therefore, directly in the band, you would see the timpani, concert bass drum, concert snare drums (I have three), chimes, rain stick, triangle, wood blocks, and a table for other miscellaneous instruments such as the vibra slap. To my left (from the conducting viewpoint), we place the vibraphone, xylophone, glockenspiel, and all the melodic instruments of that nature. To the right, we have two full drum sets, in case the music we are playing is jazz music.
Apart from my percussion instruments, we have the queen-sized bed I sleep in (which is behind the conductor’s stand about 12 feet), and my closet and dresser next to those. My closet holds all my uniforms since I do have a large collection. Next to the closet is the master bathroom, which includes a shower (though by itself; it isn’t a shower/bathtub combination), and a Jacuzzi-style tub. Hey, even drum majors like me need time to relax after literally standing on our feet all day long.
From the conductor’s viewpoint, the left corner in the back has a special door that opens to allow my guests in, but that’s all I am allowed to say about that one because that’s where we get into forbidden territory. All I am allowed to say is that if you go down the hallways behind that door, you’ll find yourself in Dark Wolf’s castle. (There have been times where he has opened it to the public, similar to how the Forsythian monarchs do their own castle and palace tours, but he never shows the bottom level because that’s where the G-52 HQ is located. Thus, this is all I am allowed to say.)
There you have it; that’s my house in a nutshell. Stay tuned for another tour, and please bear in mind we are only covering a select few G-52s for safety and privacy reasons, as well as the fact many of them have normal houses not worthy of a tour like this. Still, I appreciate your company, folks.
Have a nice day!

Pink: We sure do enjoy visiting your home, bandmaster. And sometimes you even let me and my brother Blue stay too.
Blue: I am not sure about you bandmaster, but are you OK with your house being our so-called "second residence?" Even though we technically have a "second house" somewhere in the city? (It's been so long since I last mentioned it)

Me: No, I don't mind. I don't mind one bit. You're not the only guests I have over, but you're usually the ones who spend a night with me.
Super C: Do you rent an apartment or house in Wildcat City?
Super C: Do you rent an apartment or house in Wildcat City?
Blue: It's a house. I am not sure how we can keep up with mortgage, unless it's backed by the Wildcat City Government.
Super C: I doubt it; my mortgage wasn't backed by the city, and I finished paying it off several years back.
D.W.: So you may have to work a job to pay it off, unless somebody secretly paid it off for you and we didn't know about it.
