Circe's Manor THE NEXT

[Ookalf]

Eebon: *perks up* Really?

Well, I'm not making any promises. Whatever happens will depend on her.

[xGoggles]

"Oh, is she coming over? I am actually very curious how she looks like now, from the stories I heard~" Dan mentions, genuine eager to meet the mother of his new cat-like friends.

[AmbushCat]

Eebon: Alright. If she agrees, she'll probably want to make you guarantee in person. Do you need to borrow my phone, Circe? Gaw.

[Ookalf]

Thanks, but I've got this. *Circe pulls out her own phone and dials up Amber.*

[AmbushCat]

*A short pause before Amber picks up on the other end. If the television in the background is any indication, she's sounding rather bored.*

---Ol' Amber here. Please tell me that someone wants me to revive into an Aerodactyl...---

[Ookalf]

Amber, it's Circe. I have your kids here at the manor, and they were wondering if they could stay late...

[AmbushCat]

---Staying late's not an issue... I mean, that's what they reserved those rooms at the Manor for. It's staying up late that concerns me.---

[Ookalf]

Ah. They're on summer vacation, though, aren't they? Surely you can allow them at least a couple hours more.

[AmbushCat]

*The other line is silent for a few moments, with only the television in the background discernible. Amber finally sighs.*

---Deflegrate muri tempi et intervalia.---

*The phone line abruptly cuts off with a click... and Amber* appears in the banquet hall in a fiery flash. The fire is neither harmful nor dangerous, disappearing a moment after she arrives. Some of the party-goers look up at her and wave politely, but she's too focused on Circe and Eebon to notice them.*

((OOC: * - Picture posted more for xGoggles' benefit than anyone else's.))

[Ookalf]

Ah, there you are. *Circe hangs up her phone and stands up to address Amber.* So was that reasonable, or no?

[xGoggles]

"Whaaahhh~!" Dan, almost jumping out of his chair by the unexpected fire-show, then realising a woman with grey skin appeared from it, becoming slightly amazed by her spectacular entrance.
"Pssst, Echo, is that your mother?" he ask, giving the cat a little poke.


((And thanks... I might have already looked her up before, but I appreciate the gesture~ Also did you draw her yourself? Awesome idea to draw out your own characters. ;D ))

((OOC: You're welcome. And yeah, I did. I don't do it too often; my ability to draw humans [and humanoids in general] is very lackluster, so I don't force myself to do it unless I have a specific description in mind. Sadly, this also means I don't have pictures of the kids aside from Ellen.))

Echo: *tail twitches* That's her, alright. Quite the entrance, no?

Ah, there you are. *Circe hangs up her phone and stands up to address Amber.* So was that reasonable, or no?

*The background music changes again as the exchange takes place.*

*gives first Circe, and then Eebon, a conflicted look* How late exactly are we talking about here?

Eebon: Um... *meekly* 11pm?

*Amber's left eye twitches, and she opens her mouth to reject the notion---*

Eebon: *softly* Please, gaw?

Amber: *shoulders slump* ... ...I don't know whether to be upset that you're begging to stay up late, or wistful that you're beginning to grow up.

*Eebon squeals delightedly, jumps up and hugs her mother, almost dragging her down to the floor.*

A certain dog-girl maid (looking like so but with a bit of a bigger bust) wanders into the room the party's going on in, looking around with a distinctly confused expression, like someone who just woke up to find themselves on a completely different planet.

[xGoggles]

"Yea, does that always happens when she appears?" he wonders if their mother might be part fire-elemental or... no, it wouldn't be... she couldn't be part infernal demon, would she? Well, she did go through a lot of changes, resulting into her strange genetics now... Maybe not a good idea to ask anyway, would be a bit rude asking if they were a demon or not~

Eebon's responds seem promising, guess she got what she wanted.

Noticing the confused dog-girl wandering around, unsure what her deal was, maybe she was a new maid looking for the head-maid or Circe... He is just going to sit quietly for now and take another sip of his water.

*Circe claps her hands together.* All right, it sounds like that's settled. You want anything to eat while you're here?

*A maid dressed in pink greets the dog girl as she comes in.* Hey there. You lost or something?
