Circe's Manor: Re-re-redux!

[Circe]

I guess so. ...Need help carrying anything?

[AmbushCat]

Eebon: Hmm... maybe just those two umbrellas at the door. Gaw.

[Circe]

Ah, sure. Just a second! *The maid runs to the front door to collect the umbrellas, then comes back to lead Eebon to the guest rooms.*

[AmbushCat]

Eebon: Thanks. *follows her* You know, I've sometimes wondered how many times new staffers have to walk these halls before they remember where everything is. Lost, lost, lost, gaw.

[Circe]

*The maid chuckles.* Oh, it can take a while... I've been here for at least a year, and I still have to double-check things now and then.

[AmbushCat]

Eebon: *wincing* I feel sorry for any minotaur-girls that work here, then. Gaw.

[Circe]

Oh, I'm sure they've all heard that one before... Anyway, here's your room. *Sure enough, the guest rooms are now visible right up ahead.*

[Feng]

***There is a knock at the front door***

[Circe]

*As the assigned door maid is busy helping the Harrison kids get settled in, it takes a little while for someone to come answer the door, but it does get answered.* Y-yes?

[Feng]

Darkening Circe's doorstep in one Bones, gentleman smuggler and criminal mastermind. He greets the door maid with a tip of his hat.

"Good day, madame. Is the lady of the house available?"

[Circe]

*The maid at the door nervously looks Bones up and down.* Oh, ah, I think Miss Circe is working on something right now... Do, do you need something from here?

[AmbushCat]

Oh, I'm sure they've all heard that one before... Anyway, here's your room. *Sure enough, the guest rooms are now visible right up ahead.*

Eebon: Okay. Thank you. Gaw.

*Eebon picks one at random, then enters... only to get chased out by balled-up pieces of paper. She shrugs, then enters another...*

Elk: *singing* Somewhere over the rainbow, weigh a pie---

*The felinoid hastily retreats and enters a third room...*

Ezekiel: HUGS!

*...and finally drags herself into the fourth room, an adorable Ezekiel clinging to her. The door clicks shut.*

[Circe]

Heh... If any of you kids need anything, just ask! *The maid chuckles and walks off to check on the front door.*

[AmbushCat]

*A faint 'okay' is heard from Ellen as she walks away, then all is quiet.*

[Feng]

"Lets just say I wished to pay my respects towards the Mistress of the home" says Bones, lighting his pipe. "Of course if she is too busy I suppose I could come back some other time..."
