Circe's Manor

[Circe]

Well, I guess it could go either way.

----

A glacier? It feels fine to me... *Concerned, the maid plces a hand on Callista's forehead to feel her temperature.*

[AmbushCat]

*nods* Probably.

*Both Amber and Aldonza stare at the table, looking concerned for their boss's predicament and ignoring the BGM (Bad Company's "Holy Water") that's playing.*

-----

*Callista's forehead seems a bit warmer than is the norm.*

[Circe]

At any rate, there's no sense worrying about it. I'm sure she'll recover.

----

*The maid frowns.* Hm... You do seem to be running a fever...

[AmbushCat]

*quietly* I hope so.

*thinks back, then sighs* Can't remember if I asked you or not. What was your take on the fight itself?

------

Callista: *quiet monotone* Great... like I needed that on top of everything else.

[Circe]

Pretty interesting. Callista put up a pretty good fight, and I got to try out some tricks I've never really used before.

----

Don't worry, dear. I'm sure you'll feel better soon.

[AmbushCat]

*nods* Pretty beneficial for both sides, then?

------------

Callista: Huh... *covers her mouth and coughs a few times before continuing* Forgive me if I don't feel as optimistic.

[Circe]

I'd say so, yes.

----

*The maid smiles.* Very well, you're forgiven. Now, can I get anything else for you? More blankets, maybe?

[AmbushCat]

*smiles* Good. *frowns* Thought I'd ask. Do you know any self-healing techniques?

------

Callista: Please. And I may want to grab a bath if I feel up to it later on. Is that alright?

[Circe]

*Circe shakes her head.* I'm afraid I'm not all that good with healing magic.

----

Of course, dear. *The maid grabs a couple of blankets from the closet and places them on Callista's bed.*

[AmbushCat]

Hmm... maybe later we can see about getting you some of Calli's Dr. Pepper bottles. Outside of the universe that she buys them at, they work along the same lines as RPG-esque potions and elixirs.

-----

Of course, dear. *The maid grabs a couple of blankets from the closet and places them on Callista's bed.*

Callista: *coughs* Thanks, ma'am.

*The shopfreak takes another sip of water. After placing it back, she pulls the blankets back over her and tries to fall asleep again.*

-----

*Outside the front door, a blue-furred felinoid in a gray uniform sets a couple of packages next to it and rings the doorbell.*

I'm sure they'd come in handy.

Callista: *coughs* Thanks, ma'am.

*The shopfreak takes another sip of water. After placing it back, she pulls the blankets back over her and tries to fall asleep again.*

*Well, the bed's certainly comfy enough.*

*Outside the front door, a blue-furred felinoid in a gray uniform sets a couple of packages next to it and rings the doorbell.*

*The same maid who answered the last two guests opens the door.* Hello. Can I help you?

[AmbushCat]

No doubt.

It takes a while to get used to stuff like that. The weirdness value of the idea, that is.

-----

Callista: *drowsily* Dim... the l..lights, too...

*And with that, she succombs to the blackness once more.*

-----

Felinoid: Yes, I'm with the Infinite Defense Delivery Service. I'm here to deliver these packages to Circe from one Saturn Eunice. *holds out a clipboard, paper, and pen* Would you mind signing for these, please?

[Circe]

No doubt.

Well, this place isn't exactly weirdness-free, either.

Callista: *drowsily* Dim... the l..lights, too...

*And with that, she succombs to the blackness once more.*

*The maid turns the lights off and steps out of the room.*

Felinoid: Yes, I'm with the Infinite Defense Delivery Service. I'm here to deliver these packages to Circe from one Saturn Eunice. *holds out a clipboard, paper, and pen* Would you mind signing for these, please?

Oh, yes. I do remember getting a note about this. *The maid takes the clipboard and starts filling the paperwork out.*

[AmbushCat]

*nods* Back when we first found Muffinville's sister universe, and later on this place, we weren't really prepared for any of it even with the advance warning we received. People like Himitsu, Caprice, Callista's surrogate sister Bliss (Spamville's resident costume specialist), Shadell, Dracos... they pretty much totaled all the expectations that we had.

----

*The deliverycat waits patiently for the maid to finish.*

Oh, I can imagine.

*The maid hands the clipboard back to him a moment later.* Here you go.
