Lady Upton's Antique Shop

[Zoei]

*Sireen blushes.* Is there anything else you've ever really wanted?

Mischa hmms, crossing her arms as she thinks. "Aside from the usual silly things, I can't think of much! I've got a sexy genie, and a new home, and a new look..." She giggles.

"Perhaps you wish to view your newly acquired estate?"

[AmbushCat]

And... how would she do such a thing?

Claire: *blushes* I have a habit of... hording things that I feel may be useful someday. A while back, I received these "splitting cookies" from this girl named Erika.

I see... Well, I do not suppose Lady Upton would mind you using such a thing.

[Harri-chan]

"But, but.... oh, how rude", sighed the girl as she watched the Countess taking the doll. "Dolls are meant to be played with, Lady Upton, not... collected", she said, matter-of-factly, blue eyes looking up at Zoei. "Do you have ANY toys that are for playing with?".

"I believe she intends to play with her dolls"

"Silly girl, who says I'd only collect them?" Countess Ashley asked. "I'll take very good care of them." She walked over to Lady Upton and pulled out the necessary money.

Claire: Thank you very much.

*Claire retrieves a cookie from her shopping bag and bites into it delicately. Immediately, Kaoru pops into being next to her. Frowning at Claire, she shrugs and waves before transforming. Not wasting any time, she hurries out of the store and jets away*

Claire: My mind feels much clearer now.

[Ookalf]

Claire: Thank you very much.

Claire: My mind feels much clearer now.

I'm glad to hear that. Are you ready to work now?

[AmbushCat]

Claire: Yes. I assume that I'll have to meet with Lady Uptown first?

[Ookalf]

I would assume she'd like to speak with you, yes. *Yvette opens the door and re-enters the main shopping area.*

[AmbushCat]

*Claire follows Yvette, hands clasped in front of her and the broom hanging off her back.*

*Meanwhile, deep in Claire's subconscious, there seems to be some activity...*

[Zoei]

"Silly girl, who says I'd only collect them?" Countess Ashley asked. "I'll take very good care of them." She walked over to Lady Upton and pulled out the necessary money.

*Takes the money for the purchase*"is there anything else?"

[Ookalf]

*Yvette leads Claire up to Lady Upton.* I've returned, ma'am.

[Zoei]

*Yvette leads Claire up to Lady Upton.* I've returned, ma'am.

"Hello, and who is this?"

[AmbushCat]

Claire: *bows* I am Claire Wilson-Metallium, my Lady. At your service.
