Circe's Manor: Re-re-redux!

[Harri-chan]

His brow creased slightly in thought, and he glanced at Melanie for a second, then back to Circe. "I've not really had a chance to find out other things I might be good at, Miss Circe. Sorry".

[Josie]

"It requires a very steady hand but yeah, totally." She says with a smile. "And thicken the icing you were going to put on it just a bit and no one will ever notice!" She continues, smiling to the chef. "I'm somewhat of a cook myself.."

[AmbushCat]

I see. Sounds like you'd be good in the restaurant, then... Anything else?

Ellen: *pokes her head out of the dressing room* ...So... excuse the interruption, but if there isn't going to be any gratuitous violence, can I come out now?

[Circe]

His brow creased slightly in thought, and he glanced at Melanie for a second, then back to Circe. "I've not really had a chance to find out other things I might be good at, Miss Circe. Sorry".

No, that's quite all right... I suppose you can just learn as you go along.

"It requires a very steady hand but yeah, totally." She says with a smile. "And thicken the icing you were going to put on it just a bit and no one will ever notice!" She continues, smiling to the chef. "I'm somewhat of a cook myself.."

Oh, cool! Thanks for the tip. *The chef sets the cake on the counter and fishes a knife out of one of the drawers.* So, I just need to peel it off...

Ellen: *pokes her head out of the dressing room* ...So... excuse the interruption, but if there isn't going to be any gratuitous violence, can I come out now?

No, there's no violence! Not for now, at any rate...

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ... *shrug* Never hurts to make sure. I don't like crossfire. *leaves the dressing room and jumps back into the pool*

[Josie]

"Yeah, just remember it's not going to peel like a fruit. You are going to have to guide it." She says. "Now...where are the drinking glasses?"

[Circe]

"Yeah, just remember it's not going to peel like a fruit. You are going to have to guide it." She says. "Now...where are the drinking glasses?"

Um, there should be some in the cupboard right behind me... *The chef gestures vaguely behind her, then gets to work in cleaning the cake.*

Ellen: ... *shrug* Never hurts to make sure. I don't like crossfire. *leaves the dressing room and jumps back into the pool*

Right... *Circe nods, then turns her attention back to Elliot.*

[Josie]

Josie nods and walks over, opening the cabinet and fishing out a glass. She walks over to the nearby sink, nimbly dodging another chef and ours herself that cup of water. She watches the chef however, smiling slightly. "Good good...remember not to go in too deep." She says, holding onto the glass of water.

[Circe]

Right, right... Wasn't there something else you wanted?

[Josie]

"Only just to check on the maid's claims of eating "purple and green eggs." Some other people might end up getting sick."

[Circe]

Purple and green eggs? I think I'd remember hearing about something like that... But, I wasn't here at breakfast, so I guess I can't say for sure.

[Josie]

"Wait breakfast? Oh boy...That means there's probably going to many more sick maids..." She sighs out, shaking her head. "Alright then, thank you for the help, good luck on your cake!" She says, giving a wave to the chef-girl before heading out and back to the infirmary.

Thanks! You're welcome! ...One of those! *The chef waves back to Josie as she leaves.*

[Josie]

Josie closes the door on the kitchen and unrolls the map. She uses it to guide herself back towards the infirmary.

[Circe]

*The map does not fail Josie, and she'll soon find herself back at Vanessa's infirmary.*
