Circe's Manor: Re-re-redux!

[AmbushCat]

Elliot felt a smile spread across his lips as Circe complimented the speed with which he'd brought the drink. Crossing to the pool, he bent down to set it at the side of the water for Ellen, and then stood back up and turned to Circe, "I had some help. A maid called Dana showed me the way to the kitchen... ".

*Ellen picks up the drink and sips from it without giving Elliot so much as a glance.*

[CalypsoNymph]

Dani whistles. "Nice!" She grins at Marie. "Let's see if you can do a repeat performance, eh?"

Yeah, let's hope so.

Dani whistles. "Nice!" She grins at Marie. "Let's see if you can do a repeat performance, eh?"

Claire: *smiles as she marks an 'X' for that frame* In the meantime, Miss Dani, you have a chance to match that feat.

"Right! Here goes!" She seems all pumped up as she takes her ball, and rolls it with no small amount of force. ...Sending it off center... at least she managed to get five total down. Dani pouts, unaware of how femine the gesture is. "...I'm not sure whether I should be proud or disapointed..."

(OOC: Sorry about being late; was sick, then was out of it, then I was late... and... er... sorry. ^^;;;)

(Hey, no worries. Stuff happens.)

Wel... At least you're getting better, right?

He nodded, getting nervous again, "Of course, Miss Circe. Is there anything else I can do for you now?".

Ah... None that I can think of, sad to say.

[CalypsoNymph]

Dani sighs. "I suppose so..." With a almost resigned, and yet still hopefull look, she picks up the bowling ball as the course repairs itself. She tosses herself, aiming for the center... but is off center, in the same direction, and though it isn't exactly a gutter ball... she doesn't even hit a single pin. "...not... apparently..."

((OOC: Ditto what Circe said. Glad to see you're back and well enough to continue.))

She tosses herself, aiming for the center... but is off center, in the same direction, and though it isn't exactly a gutter ball... she doesn't even hit a single pin. "...not... apparently..."

Claire: It's all just a matter of practice. I was pretty horrible my first few games. *updates the scoresheet and gets up to take her turn*

*In position. Aims. Walks forward and throws. The ball seems to be right on target, striking the lead pin...!*

...

*...Anndd it's a split, with one pin on either side remaining.*

Claire: ... *utters a mantra to herself quietly* Proper decorum, proper decorum, proper decorum, proper decorum...

[CalypsoNymph]

Dani snickers slightly. "Come now, I don't get what's so bad about a split... it's better then anything I'm going to get, at the very least, and-" For a moment, she's gone... and then, a few moments later, she's back, as if nothing happened. "Besides, you can still get one of the pins, and that'd be all but one, right?"

...While she was gone, she happened to have a time flux. Mentally, she was back to when she just leared about the 'Villian of the Year awards'. Physically, she was back where she first met Circe, which is where she still is.

So, for a moment, Dani is in the same room as Circe, her maid, and her guest, laughing her butt off. "Bwahahahaha! Lost t-to a hero! Haha! Oh, that's great! Hahahaha! Some 'villian of the ye-" And... she's gone.

...This can't end well for Dani.

*Marie stares at Dani.* ...What just happened?

---

*Meanwhile, back at the pool!* ... ... ...A... ...Ahk... *Circe just stares at the space where Dani was standing, muttering semi-coherent obscenities...* Somebody find that maid...!

[CalypsoNymph]

Dani blinks. "Huh? Something happened?" She looks behind her at the maids around the hall. "...Did somebody trip and fall or something?"

[Circe]

No, not that... It looked like you kind of disappeared for a second there...

[CalypsoNymph]

Dani blinks. "I did?" She blinks again, thinking... and then she frowns. "Of course I did. Sorry... I have some problems with space-time. Not sure what's going with that, but sometimes I skip forward, or backwards, along my time stream, and sometimes I even 'spawn' duplicates... it's really confusing at times... that's probably what happened there."

[AmbushCat]

Dani snickers slightly.

"Besides, you can still get one of the pins, and that'd be all but one, right?"

Claire: *doesn't seem to have noticed the disappearance* It is worth a try.
*Ball recovery. Proper position, aim, and throw. The ball hits the right-most pin, sending it flying at its opposite number; it grazes it, but doesn't quite knock it over.*
...Oh, spare me. *goes to update the score*

*Meanwhile, back at the pool!* ... ... ...A... ...Ahk... *Circe just stares at the space where Dani was standing, muttering semi-coherent obscenities...* Somebody find that maid...!

*Ellen quickly takes a deep breath and ducks underwater, tuning out as much of the angrish as she can.*

[Circe]

Not sure what's going with that, but sometimes I skip forward, or backwards, along my time stream, and sometimes I even 'spawn' duplicates... it's really confusing at times... that's probably what happened there."

Oh... That sounds pretty complicated...

*Ellen quickly takes a deep breath and ducks underwater, tuning out as much of the angrish as she can.*

*After another moment, Circe quickly looks toward both Ellen and Elliot.* Well?! I don't see anyone looking for her!

[AmbushCat]

*After another moment, Circe quickly looks toward both Ellen and Elliot.* Well?! I don't see anyone looking for her!

Ellen: ... *surfaces, shaking water out of her hair and eyes* ... ...Have him do it. *points at Elliot* ...Casanova's the one working for you, not me, and I want no part of this anyway.

[CalypsoNymph]

Dani nods, making a disparaging noise as she blows some air out of her mouth. "Tell me about it... I vaugly recall something about having around ten diffrent versions of myself trying for some polotical position, all at the same time. It was an absolute circus." She shakes her head slightly, sighing. "It usually keeps itself calm, though... anyway, I believe that it is your turn again?"

[Circe]

Ellen: ... *surfaces, shaking water out of her hair and eyes* ... ...Have him do it. *points at Elliot* ...Casanova's the one working for you, not me, and I want no part of this anyway.

*Circe turns her glare toward Elliot.* You, then! Find Dani and bring her to me!

Dani nods, making a disparaging noise as she blows some air out of her mouth. "Tell me about it... I vaugly recall something about having around ten diffrent versions of myself trying for some polotical position, all at the same time. It was an absolute circus." She shakes her head slightly, sighing. "It usually keeps itself calm, though... anyway, I believe that it is your turn again?"

Oh, yeah... I guess it is. *Marie goes and grabs her ball, rolls it down the lane... And only knocks down one pin, on the very edge.* ...Dang.
