Circe's Manor

[Circe]

"Things have settled down..." Mischa admits. "Nothing much new. I suspect my alternate selves are having more interesting lives," he says with a chuckle. "So what plans do you have now that things are back to normal for you, Circe?"

*Circe sighs.* None, really... I've tried to reopen my store and restaurant, but past that...

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Ellen: ...My brain is more tired than my body is, I can't control my own strength long enough to swim adequately... but other than that, I'm fine. *flicks some stray hair away from her eyes*

Mischa hmms. "That's rather interesting, although I suppose it's rather inconvenient, too. Still... I suppose it does go to show that transformations can be difficult to adjust to."

*Circe sighs.* None, really... I've tried to reopen my store and restaurant, but past that...

He nods. "Business isn't going so well? I suppose it can be difficult... Muffinville seems pretty quiet these days, and it can be hard to just sit and chat with people. At least..." He glances to the side in embarassment. "I know I have a hard time making small talk and chatting with people."

He looks between the two. "Well, I suppose you at least have guests coming to visit."

[Circe]

He nods. "Business isn't going so well? I suppose it can be difficult... Muffinville seems pretty quiet these days, and it can be hard to just sit and chat with people. At least..." He glances to the side in embarassment. "I know I have a hard time making small talk and chatting with people."

He looks between the two. "Well, I suppose you at least have guests coming to visit."

Yeah... I guess that is nice.

[AmbushCat]

Mischa hmms. "That's rather interesting, although I suppose it's rather inconvenient, too. Still... I suppose it does go to show that transformations can be difficult to adjust to."

Ellen: *quirks an eyebrow* ...I guess you're an authority on that, huh?

Yeah... I guess that is nice.

Ellen: ...Indeed. I don't fully understand this whole "friends" thing, but if Aldonza can do it, so can I.

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Yeah... I guess that is nice.

Mischa nods. "Although sometimes I wonder if people don't visit because they're hoping someone else is doing something more exciting than they are..." he says with a chuckle.

Ellen: *quirks an eyebrow* ...I guess you're an authority on that, huh?

"Hmm?" Mischa blinks, and laughs nervously. "I didn't think I was notorious for getting transformed all of the time... unless I sounded like I was trying to be an expert on the subject? That wasn't my intention..."

[Circe]

Mischa nods. "Although sometimes I wonder if people don't visit because they're hoping someone else is doing something more exciting than they are..." he says with a chuckle.

Is... that why you're here?

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Is... that why you're here?

Mischa laughs! "No, no, that's not why I'm here," he says. "I came by more because I consider you a friend, and with you being back to normal and all, I thought I'd see how things were going for you. I guess I have seen you at your store briefly, but I never got much of a chance to talk there."

[Circe]

Oh, right. We really haven' seen each other since then, have we?

[AmbushCat]

"Hmm?" Mischa blinks, and laughs nervously. "I didn't think I was notorious for getting transformed all of the time... unless I sounded like I was trying to be an expert on the subject? That wasn't my intention..."

Ellen: ...I don't think 'notorious' is the right word... it just seems like you've been subjected to it fairly often. It's probably just me.

Oh, right. We really haven' seen each other since then, have we?

Ellen: ...I blame the stigma left behind by the Shopping Queen's presence. *takes a deep breath, then dunks her head underwater*

[AmbushCat]

*Ellen resurfaces a minute later, gasping for air. After replenishing her oxygen supply, she nods in satisfaction before staring at the water thoughtfully.*

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Oh, right. We really haven' seen each other since then, have we?

"Mmmm, not really~"

"Hmm?" Mischa blinks, and laughs nervously. "I didn't think I was notorious for getting transformed all of the time... unless I sounded like I was trying to be an expert on the subject? That wasn't my intention..."

Ellen: ...I don't think 'notorious' is the right word... it just seems like you've been subjected to it fairly often. It's probably just me.

Oh, right. We really haven' seen each other since then, have we?

Ellen: ...I blame the stigma left behind by the Shopping Queen's presence. *takes a deep breath, then dunks her head underwater*

Mischa chuckles. "And here I prided myself on not getting TF'd very often! I mean, c'mon... look at, say, Dact, who gets transformed at the drop of a hat."

"As for the Shopping Queen, she puts all other shoppers to shame, so they can't bear to follow in her wake!"

[Circe]

"Mmmm, not really~"

Hm. ...Well, I guess it's nice to be able to catch up.

[AmbushCat]

Mischa chuckles. "And here I prided myself on not getting TF'd very often! I mean, c'mon... look at, say, Dact, who gets transformed at the drop of a hat."

Ellen: *thoughtful* ...Dact... who was he now... ...oh, right; I remember now. The "Knight Boy".

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Hm. ...Well, I guess it's nice to be able to catch up.

Mischa chuckles. "Unfortunately, there's precious little interesting going on in my life that's worth talking about," he admits. "Honestly, I wonder if I should get a real job or something..."

Ellen: *thoughtful* ...Dact... who was he now... ...oh, right; I remember now. The "Knight Boy".

He nods, and then chuckles. "Could be worse... he could've been a Knight Rider!"

[Circe]

Mischa chuckles. "Unfortunately, there's precious little interesting going on in my life that's worth talking about," he admits. "Honestly, I wonder if I should get a real job or something..."

Ah... You're having employment trouble?
