Circe's Manor THE NEXT

[AmbushCat]

Oh, really? *Circe glances at the items Zapana brought with her.* Let's see them, then.

Alrighty.

*Zapana sets her empty glass aside and unwraps the canvas on the first piece of artwork.*

*The contents thereof... well, it's pretty much ego personified: Ambush and Amber.*

...Yeah, and I have a pretty good idea what you're thinking. Hope it's not too off-putting.

[Ookalf]

"Is that what usually happens when people transform?"

Well, sometimes. Other times they do end up going back like you wanted. Stuff like that all depends on the person.

"But... I.. Uh..", she was just flabbergast. Sure Circe told her it was quite common, but this frequent? Thinking about all these maids she has seen, all these cute girls she has met, who is really who and what were they before?! Danaye's worldview kinda of crumbled apart...
As her mind tries to make sense of it, she begins to speak again, "I.. I'm not from this world... And I don't know who is famous for what here... I only heard Circe was a very powerful mage..not some.. maid-collector or someone that took practice in turning men into women... Is this really that normal here?"

Wait, so you seriously didn't know? Miss Circe basically used to be, like, a super villain, and she'd turn people into maids for fun and stuff. ...Oh, but that was, like, years ago. These days, she mostly only does that people who want it or are basically asking for it, you know what I mean?

Alrighty.

*Zapana sets her empty glass aside and unwraps the canvas on the first piece of artwork.*

*The contents thereof... well, it's pretty much ego personified: Ambush and Amber.*

...Yeah, and I have a pretty good idea what you're thinking. Hope it's not too off-putting.

*Circe nods as she looks over the picture.* Well, it's a good likeness, I'll give it that much... And what about the other one?

[xGoggles]

The genie's eyes widen even more, she was about to burst out again, but luckily this time she remembers to cover her mouth and hold it in, "SHE IS WH--! S-she is a supervillain? Like an evil bad person? Is this why she has demon maids?... Oh, no.. Oh, dear.. and I'm her apprentice. I knew she could be bold.. but evil... Oh?.. years ago? What happened? Was she defeated by a superhero? Is that what she is still mad about?"
Though having the conversation did make it easier to come back in with Penny into the changing room and not be all too bothered with whats going on there. She still didn't notice the note on the locker yet.


(( Also want to say, that is a very nice picture of Ambush&Amber! Great job to whoever made it! ))

*Circe nods as she looks over the picture.* Well, it's a good likeness, I'll give it that much... And what about the other one?

*Zapana unwraps the second picture. The figure in this piece is recognizable as Kaoru Matsubara, in full Fairy Leviathan garb.*

Alternatively, instead of placing this in your gallery, this could be hung in one of the halls leading to the pool.

((OOC: That would be OwlCoat, over at DeviantArt. Though for whatever reason, she decided not to post it there... but anyway yeah, it was her doing. Cost me a fair bit, but it was worth it.

As a side note, the Kaoru piece above was drawn by JetZero, also at DA.))

"Ohh, I see..." Marie wags her tail rapidly at having helped Denise come up with a new idea. Thankfully it isn't near anything it could knock over at the moment.

Nah, nothing like that. I think it's more like she just got tired of it and mellowed out, y'know? Nothing really "caused it", exactly. *Now that Danaye's come in with her, Penny goes over to her locker and retrieves her uniform as they talk.*

My, this one isn't too bad either... I'm sure I'll find some place to put it. Was there anything else?

*Denise continues writing for a while longer before returning her attention to Marie.* Ah, I apologize if I got distracted. Did you have any further questions?

"I see..." Clark looked thoughtful for a moment. "Well, I suppose since I don't know how to change back anyway...I don't have anything to lose by giving this form a chance."

[xGoggles]

"Oh.. So she got tired of being evil?... That is umm, good right?", she asks leaning back against a locker. "What kinda villain stuff did she do back then, besides turning people into maids?"

[Ookalf]

"I see..." Clark looked thoughtful for a moment. "Well, I suppose since I don't know how to change back anyway...I don't have anything to lose by giving this form a chance."

Yeah, there you go. It can't hurt too much to give something new a try.

"Oh.. So she got tired of being evil?... That is umm, good right?", she asks leaning back against a locker. "What kinda villain stuff did she do back then, besides turning people into maids?"

Honestly, I think that was mostly it. ...Oh, right. I think she also used to take, like, animal and monster people as pets or whatever, but she gave that up ages ago, even before the other stuff. *After drying herself off with a towel, Penny starts to remove her bikini and change back into her regular clothes.*

[Abillioncats]

Clark smiled. "Right!" The lawyer was silent again, looking at the other girl for a moment. "Well...since I might be staying like this...I suppose I need a new name...and new clothes...can't keep borrowing yours haha..."

[AmbushCat]

My, this one isn't too bad either... I'm sure I'll find some place to put it. Was there anything else?

*shrug* Nothing that comes to mind. Aldonza-chan sends her regards, by the way.

Oh, definitely not. You'll probably want to go shopping at some point... But if you wanna talk names, how about Kara? I think that's a nice name.

*shrug* Nothing that comes to mind. Aldonza-chan sends her regards, by the way.

*Circe nods.* Tell her the same from me next time you see her. On that note, are you going to be on your way now, or were you planning to stay a while?

[Abillioncats]

"Kara..." She sounded it out slowly. "I like it, Kara it is then!"

"Oh.. Do you think any of those 'pets' are still around the Manor?..--!!", but before waiting for an answer, Danaye quickly turns around blushing, shying away when Penny starts to loosen her bikini.
Going closer to her locker, she noticed the note, curious but also suspicious, she carefully takes it and reads it... "AHhh! Someone knows!", she starts to look around in a panic, thinking with that message her lamp might have already been stolen. Hastily, she unlocks her locker, takes out the backpack and opens it quickly to check if it was still inside! Which it was.. just like where she left it... which was a relief, but her heart was still racing...

"Kara..." She sounded it out slowly. "I like it, Kara it is then!"

Good for you, Kara. So... You need me to do anything else, or can I go now?

Huh? What's up? *Penny comes over to read the note over Danaye's shoulder.* Oh, wow... That's kind of a creepy note to leave someone, huh? They didn't even sign it or anything... You gonna be OK after seeing that?
