Curtis's Song of the Week

[Circe]

...Oh, whatever. You know what I meant.

[CRBWildcat]

(BC)
Yeah, yeah... ...By the way, did you get any packages in the mail the past few days? Callista said she sent something to you recently, but she hasn't been able to ask the shipping company about its status.

[Circe]

Well, I can keep an eye out for it, at least. What's the package?

[CRBWildcat]

(BC)
A refurbished console gaming system and a small selection of games. She won't elaborate on what they are, just that she sent them on Thaddea's recommendation.

[Circe]

Uh-huh. I'll be sure to watch for that...

[CRBWildcat]

(BC)
That would be great, thanks. ...And also, Thaddea wanted to apologize for not doing business at your store and returning what she'd "borrowed" in pristine condition like she'd intended. Bounty hunting work took up more of her time than she liked.

[Circe]

*Circe shrugs.* Eh, it's not a big deal. I wasn't really expecting much from that anyway.

[CRBWildcat]

(BC)
Fair enough. *pauses, listening to something* One more thing: Calli's trying to liven things up a bit around here by taking control of the Brotherhood, so she wants you to try and lay low as much as you can.

[Circe]

Seems simple enough. Not like I've been out and about much around here, anyway...

[CRBWildcat]

(BC)
... *deadpan* I'm not sure which is stranger: that she's even trying, or that you don't seem bothered by it.

[Circe]

Is it surprising? I don't recall ever giving much indication that I cared one way or another about the Brotherhood.

[CRBWildcat]

(BC)
Well, considering that their aims involve annihilating anything that could be remotely considered girly and putting pants on what's left, low success rate notwithstanding...
...
... *facepalms* I could've been a football player. What is my life right now?

[Circe]

Still not seeing why I should be worried. You just said they've never had any success, and I doubt Callista's going to be all that serious about it.

[CRBWildcat]

*Kaoru starts to open her mouth, but gets cut off by a sharp whistle as Aldonza (in her birth form) approaches from off to the side. Mini-Lina can be heard lightly snoring from inside one of her coat pockets.*

I'll take things from here, Kaoru-san; I haven't said hi in a while. You can go if you'd like.

*Kaoru smiles thankfully, visibly relieved, and jogs off.*

Didn't mean to interrupt, but... well, you know. Great seeing you again, Circe-chan.

[Circe]

Nice to see you too, Aldonza. Are you going to try and convince to be terrified of Callista too?
