She bows. "Of course, my lady. I am, after all, at your service."

And she strips, before joining Ellie in the tub.

Later, after they've dried off: "You are very nice and I quite like you."

Heeee.

"Saaaaame," she says, grinning.

"We should make this a regular thing. Cultural tourism and a sleepover."

"I'd like that!"

"Then it's a date."

Heeee. Kiss!

"I look forward to it."

Kiss!

Suddenly cat. "Let's go out somewhere. I want to practice magic more."

Tiger.

"That'll be fun, yeah."

And off to zoom somewhere with fewer people.

Magic! The flashy kind.

Heee.

Ruby likes throwing fire and smoke everywhere and zooming around. It's really fun.

The big thing Ellie is working on is getting a thunderstorm rolling closer to the ground.

Ruby's only kind of helpful, there. Still, she can provide a moving target for lightning bolts easily enough.

Good enough.

A ground thunderstorm is hard, but for now it mostly seems an issue of it taking time - something Ellie can fairly easily work on.

The small thing she has to work on she doesn't really want to show before it's finished, so she'll spend her time today doing this and practicing other fighting things.

Ruby is very eager to help with fighting, after all.

She is helpful that way. Good kitty.

Heee.

Eventually, of course, they should probably return to their college. Tragic.

Alas, yes.

But tomorrow is Monday, and so they will have class together.

English! Which Ruby becomes a lot more fine skipping after she checks the syllabus and notices this module's about the Puritans - boring - and they don't have any quizzes yet.

"We should figure out how to make minions that can take tests for us... Even just something remote controlled so we can pay attention only for that part..."

"That's a good idea. Getting them to look human might be tricky, too."

"I wonder... If you have a minion that you're remote controlling - could you channel magic through it?"
