Circe's Manor: Re-re-redux!

[Circe]

Groaning, Mark doesn't realize where his feet are, quickly kicking away and scrambling over to where he heard the bottle crash, picking it up with both hands and trying to get the liquid up from the floor as best he can, cursing to himself all the way,

*Mark's efforts to regather the spilled potion aren't entirely fruitless, but the end result is till another puddle on the floor. ...And then he hears more crashes behind him, as more bottles fall off the shelves due to his reckless kicking before...*

"Do a lot of people come watch the games?", he asked, a little redness rising to his cheeks as he glanced back at the empty bleachers, and just picturing them full of people made his stomach feel all tight with nerves. Turning back he saw the black-haired girl and smiled at her, "What are your names by the way?".

Yeah, sometimes... And I'm Marcia.

Marissa...

Claire: *humming again* The wall was too high as you can see... *looks down from the light panel she was polishing* Hm?

*The maid steps off the ladder she was using, takes out a magnifying glass, and proceeds to examine each machine.*

Claire: ...Passable... passable... satisfactory... passable... spider... *smack, clean, wipe, wipe* ...satisfactory. *eyes blacken; thumbs up* It's all good.

Huh... Well, if Claire's giving it a pass, I guess I'll accept it too. *Marie shrugs.*

*Mark's efforts to regather the spilled potion aren't entirely fruitless, but the end result is till another puddle on the floor. ...And then he hears more crashes behind him, as more bottles fall off the shelves due to his reckless kicking before...*

Mark mutters some more curses as he quickly sets what's left of the potion on a table, carefully, before making sure to avoid the puddle this time and go over to the empty vials. He immediately grabs about four of them, putting two under his arms and holding two with his hands, after he wipes his hands off on his clothes to get the rest of the potion off of them.

Quickly, he makes his way over to where he laid the cracked bottle down, setting the empty bottles beside it before frowning. "Is there anything around here that can help me get this stuff off the floor?" Mark says, thinking out loud as he carefully moves over to inspect the last mess he made.

[Harri-chan]

"Nice to meet you both", he said with a nod of his head, and then began nervously tugging on the green cheerleading dress. He was starting to wonder if maybe he'd have been better of just trying to run when Elise caught him. He was pretty quick, maybe he could have escaped..

*Mark does spot a mop and bucket in the corner... In other news, the potions he dropped off the shelf have spilled out and are starting to blend together, into what he couldn't say.*

Nice to meet you too. *Marcia looks up to the door Elliot came through.* So, we still have a couple minutes before the others get here... Wanna talk?

[Harri-chan]

"Sure", smiled Elliot. He hadn't been expecting such friendliness. The problem was... he didn't really know what cheerleaders, or even girls in general usually spoke about. "Do either of you two like comic books? I have a huge collection at home. The super hero ones are my favourites... ".

*Mark does spot a mop and bucket in the corner... In other news, the potions he dropped off the shelf have spilled out and are starting to blend together, into what he couldn't say.*

Frowning at what he sees, Mark quickly and carefully opens the cracked bottle and begins pouring what's left into one of the new bottles. Once that is done, he then sighs a little bit as he looks at the potions off of the shelf. "Kinda wish there was a way to salvage it so it didn't all go to waste..." He says, before heading over and grabbing the mop and bucket.

*Marissa speaks up.* I do... Have any favorite series?

He says, before heading over and grabbing the mop and bucket.

*As Mark lifts the mop and bucket, he's something behind them that looks a lot like a giant turkey baster, labeled "for potions spillage"... Handy, that.*

[Harri-chan]

"You seriously like comic books?", asked Elliot in amazement. "Oh, I have so many favourites. Super Schoolgirl is probably the one I like reading best though. She has the best outfits!".

[Marky]

Blinking for a moment, Mark smiles and quickly grabs the thing that looks like a giant turkey baster, quickly putting the mop and bucket back where they were, and going over and quickly getting the rest of the feline potion from the floor, and putting it into the new bottle with the rest of it, along with some that had leaked out onto the table. He sets that bottle aside and corks it, before grabbing another bottle and moving down to where the others had spilled.

"Jeez...I made a mess..." Mark says, shaking his head a little, before quickly using the giant turkey baster to get as much of the spilled potions up and put into the new bottle!

Oh, yeah, I know her... Did you get the one that came out last week yet?

*And Mark's new bottles are handily filled! While the cat potion doesn't seem any worse for wear from what happened, the others continue to swirl together in their new container...*

[Harri-chan]

"Ohh, no, I didn't get that one yet. I've been kinda... struggling to hold down a job, and don't really have much money right now... ", he said with an embarrassed look. "Was it a good issue?", he asked eagerly.

[Marky]

*And Mark's new bottles are handily filled! While the cat potion doesn't seem any worse for wear from what happened, the others continue to swirl together in their new container...*

Letting out a sigh once the new bottles are filled, Mark smiles a bit at his handiwork. "All done...thankfully." He says, wiping his forehead for a moment, before carefully placing the new bottles onto the table. However, it is only then when he notices the odd swirling that the other potions are doing in their new container. "Whoa...now that's freaky. Man...a bunch of them must've mixed together or something. Probably wouldn't be good if someone got a hold of it..."

Oh, yeah. All the usual, sexy action and drama... *Marcia just kind of awkwardly watches Elliot and Marissa talk, not actually having any idea what they're going on about.*

*Seems like Mark has a few options here. He could take the potion for himself, or hide for safekeeping, or some such. He could try to find someone to help him figure out what's up with this, and probably get in trouble in the process. He could just ignore it and move on with his life. Or maybe something else? Who knows. The potion probably doesn't, as it just keeps swirling about...*

[Harri-chan]

Elliot was enthralled by the conversation, and could have stood talking with Marissa for hours, but then he spotted Marcia standing there in silence, and felt rather bad. Flashing the girl a kind smile, he tilted his head to the side, "What kind of things do you like, Marcia?".

The fox-woman goes in, though she gets one or two of her numerous tails stuck momentarily and has to pull them through carefully with her hands. "Sorry. They're, uh, sorta new."
