Circe's Shop of Magical Wonders

[Ookalf]

*Circe shrugs.* Well, if you don't want it, I can always take the offer back...

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...It's... not that. ...It's more because I'm not used to people giving me gifts just because I'm a year older.

Cynth: Y'know, even taking your mother into account, you're from a weird family.

Ellen: ...I get that a lot. Circe, could you get someone to help me pick something out?

[Ookalf]

...I see. I'm sure we can do something about that... Teresa!

*A green-clad maid with a scarf over her mouth comes t the front.* You need something, Miss Circe?

Yes. I'd like you to show my friend here around the shop, and help her with anything she might need. *Circe looks to Ellen.* This work for you?

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: *gives Teresa an appraising look, then nods* ...She's good people.

Cynth: So, yes or no?

Ellen: ...Yes.

[Ookalf]

Come along, then. *Teresa nods and heads down a random aisle.* If you want to look at anything, just let me know...

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: *follows along* ...I hadn't anything special in mind. This was rather spur of the moment, so if you have any recommendations, it would probably be easier.

[Ookalf]

Ah. That complicates things a little... Do you at least have any idea what type of thing you might want?

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Hmm... ... ...Okay. I understand from prior records that the shop has TF-inducing plush toys...?

[Ookalf]

All right, now that's something I can work with. Follow me. *Teresa leads Ellen to another part of the shop, where the shelves are lined with plushies of all sorts.* So, see anything you like?

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Hmm... *points out one* The one that sort of looks like Amaterasu seems interesting. Any conditions on the tag I should know about?

[Ookalf]

Oh, that one? *Teresa grabs the plush to show to Ellen.* Well, I believe the deal with these is usually that you can squeeze them to turn into whatever they represent... But you probably knew that part, didn't you?

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...Yes. Would doing it again reverse the effect, or is there something else that must be done?

[Ookalf]

*Teresa shrugs.* To be honest, I've never really used these myself... But yes, I imagine that is how it works.

[AmbushCat]

Ellen: ...I'll take that one, then.

[Ookalf]

All right, here you go. *Teresa hands the plush over to Ellen.* And did you want anything else?
