Circe's Manor

[AmbushCat]

Callista: Hn.
*works through most of the remainder before a question of her own comes to mind*
If I may ask, how's the simulator working for you?

[Circe]

Oh, I've been using it regularly. I think I've got the hang of the whole "space" thing now.

[AmbushCat]

Callista: *smiles happily* I'm glad to hear that. Whenever you get around to trying the Pyro-GX missions, let me know and I'll tell you what the extra weaponry is good for.

[Circe]

I'll remember that.

[AmbushCat]

Callista: Great. *polishes off her sandwich* Ooh, yeah... first sweetness in a can, now awesomeness in a sandwich. Mind calling the maid back in? I need to get something to drink that I can't get myself. *to herself* Man, that line makes me sound stupid.

"yes, im here to do a survey for the property. may i set up and then i can get out of your way quickly miss"

Really? Does, uh, Miss Circe know about this?


"i thought so but if she'd like to speak with me, maybe there was a filing error."

[Circe]

Callista: Great. *polishes off her sandwich* Ooh, yeah... first sweetness in a can, now awesomeness in a sandwich. Mind calling the maid back in? I need to get something to drink that I can't get myself. *to herself* Man, that line makes me sound stupid.

Of course. *Circe pulls out a bell and rings it. A minute later, the maid walks back in.*

You rang, Miss Circe?

Callista needs a drink, apparently.

"i thought so but if she'd like to speak with me, maybe there was a filing error."

I don't think I heard about this... Want me to, uh, go check with her?

[AmbushCat]

Callista: Yeah. In a 32-oz glass, I'll need the following drinks mixed together: lemonade, Pepsi, Orange Powerade, Strawberry Fanta, and orange juice.

[Circe]

Interesting combination... What about you, Miss Circe?

Come to think of it, I could go for a Diet Coke.

All right. Be back in a flash! *The maid leaves the room again.*

[AmbushCat]

Callista: *watches the maid go, then rests her head and one arm on the table* Sometimes I hate not being able to bring any suicide drinks with me from home.

[Circe]

I thought it was just Mountain Dew that caused problems?

[AmbushCat]

Callista: Well, if I drink them on their own, it's not a problem. If they're mixed with other flavors, I feel this drastic increase in my speed and strength... the problem is that it eats away at my insides, so I can't drink the stuff outside of a sanctioned fight. It's called a 'suicide drink' for a reason.

[Circe]

I see...

[AmbushCat]

Callista: Yeah. *pouts* Takes all the fun out of mix-and-matching at the soda fountain.

[Circe]

I can see that...

*As Circe says this, the maid returns and sets their drinks on the table.* And here you go! Will that be all?
