I9DT: Respite

Postby Samantha McManus » Thu Mar 29, 2012 2:38 am

"I'm glad you're alright with me having invited her," Samantha said as they walked up to the front desk of the spa.

"She needs this as much as we do, I think."

"I'm a little surprised she all but admitted that by agreeing to come, but I think you're right."

Victoria stretched as she pushed the doors open behind them to enter. "Mmm... is this where I'm supposed to keep up my image and say that this place is too cheerful for my tastes?" she mused, smiling a bit as she looked around.

"No, I believe this is where you're supposed to not give a damn what people think." she chuckles.

"Hello Victoria. Glad you could make it."

"Mmm, but that's such a fun appearance to keep up," Victoria joked. She seemed a little less certain with the next part, but pressed on anyway. "It's good to be along," she answered. "I... yes." Yes, Victoria seeming even calmly flustered was an unusual and somewhat amusing sight.

"Have to promise me you'll relax, aye?" She said to Victoria with a ready grin.

"These lovely people are ready to pamper us all day. Where do we want to start?"

"Didn't take you for one that liked to be told what to do," she chuckled as they were led through to the changing room.

"Darling, I thought you said you didn't want any fires today?" Victoria said idly as she settled in and started to change.

Samantha for her part didn't have quite as much to do, as she wrapped a towel around herself and simply pulled the feathers of her 'dress' back into her skin.

"Then it's prudent that I'm becoming less flammable," she smirked.

Well, hardly the first time I'll be undressed in front of faculty, Victoria mused with a little smirk as she folded her clothes for later.

Nailah shoots Sam a glance that translates into an amused "Shapeshifters..." as she wraps herself in a towel, threading it under her wings. "There goes the solidarity."

"Well, if Macbeth is any indication, there was a time when our type wouldn't ever wear clothes," Victoria joked, also opting for Sam's dress code.

"I've always been amazed that in your visions you don't seem to pause to get the scansion right," she teased as they were led out towards the baths.

"The perils of being involved with the grammatically correct," she said with a smirk to Victoria as she sidled up to one of the tubs.

"I've caught her lurking in the shadows with a red pen and devilish intentions."

"My generally witty retorts are suffering for the fact that you don't say such things to your teachers," Victoria chuckled.

"I'm sure I did something to make it difficult to, I wouldn't feel too bad," Victoria teased lazily, closing her eyes.

"A- Bloody- Men," Victoria sighed. "Some mundane rubbish would be nice, though. None of this supernatural stuff for a while. Yes, I know that's not happening."
