*The woman follows Mr. Rieper obediently, wiping her face clean with a tissue on the way. She sits in the chair and sniffles, smiling a bit too happily to Ebeneezer* Well, Mr... *She looks to him, as if for a name tag, just the view helps jog her memory* Rieper, we have simple requirements. We want something to honor Our Lady's cousin. It hasn't got to be overly fancy, but Our Lady has requested a closed casket funeral, and would appreciate something by the ocean. That's all she specified. *The woman smiled again, having suddenly gotten overly serious and business-like. She hadn't been sent with her acting skills in mind, it would seem* |

Sits bolt upright in the hottub...frantic for a moment... then relaxes....ahh, it was only a dream...I swear someone said RHUBARB... Looks to her left and sees, of course, a tall icy marguerita. Takes a long drink and settles back into the bubbles..... |

*Clambers up from the courtyard to an overhead balcony. Spots Fidei scampering away and giggling. Shouts down from the balcony.* "Hey Fidei, don't forget to pack Philippe ..." *Wanders in off the balcony and spots Christie 'dreaming' in the hot tub. Notices that it's brimming over, so turns off the water flowing freely from the golden faucet and mops the bubbles from the marbled floor.* "Hi Christie, I thought I'd drop round for that pie and tequila you invited me over for. I've been looking for you everywhere - I've been in Texas Lucy’s, Fudge’s Coffee Bar, the pizzeria (it’s being remodelled by the way), and even the Playhouse and the Silver Unicorn. And you've been here all along. Anyway, enough of the travelogue ... we meet at last. Should I cut and pour, or will you?" *Hands Christie a fluffy white towel.* "Here. Need this?" |

OK ... Wheeeeeee ...***Spladoosh*** "Sorry. I just couldn't control myself. Saw the diving board and the world stood still ... takes me back to my days in the Olympics. I was a target in the archery contest, don't you know. Spare time in the pool. Used to upset the divers by pushing them off the top platform. Wonderful times. Wonderful." "Anyway, enough of that, shall we refill the tub?" |

"OK ... Didn't mean to break the rules, just a little bit eager." *Removes cloak, hat, jacket, shoes, socks, trousers, shirt.* "OK. That's all there is. I used to be a commando, you know." Time passes ... ... ... ... very pleasantly.

Nods to the right, and beside PapaC, as if by magic, there is a tall frosty marguerita and a bowl of limes... Help your self to the drinks....they are very good...almost.....supernaturally good So, tell me a little about yourself...normally I do not invite strangers into my hot tub on the first date, but given the location....I believe we are pretty.......safe...here... |

If you have been around me much, it is apparent that I have no secrets....everything about me is out in the open. Picks up a piece of key lime pie and nibbles on it...... I live here and work for Mr. Grimm and Mr. Rieper, and I sometimes hang out at the Market Street Street Market with my good friend Fidei.....I only wear clothing when I absolutely have to, and above all else, I love Jam....................... |

I have met Fidei, she is the owner of the badger famously known as Philippe. She cares for him well ... too well sometimes, if you get my drift. They have only recently departed (not in the Grimm Rieper context) on vacation. In fact, she left you a message. I believe it was a coded message. Just before she left, she shouted "rhubarb!" at you, and then scampered away with a giggle. At least I think it was a giggle, it could have been a gigolo. I know you like poetry, and I wrote a little verse about them recently. There's a cutie-pie badger called Philippe Whose owner collapsed in a heap To her horror and fright She got covered in sh*te Cos the heap was Philippe's, the dirty little badger. I recited this to Kloister, the owner of the Badger Grooming Parlour on Market Street, and it moved him to tears. And who or what is this Jam you love? Yet another badger? Have another marguerita ...

Yes, I am familiar with Philippe. He is quite the handsome badger, and well mannered. Fidei thinks the world of him, and he of her.... Your poem is quite good....not quite tearfully good, but good nontheless..... Turns and picks up a jar of goober grape, which whe begins eating with a fork straight from the jar....I like peanut butter, but i really can't get enough Jam, know what I mean??? So what are your intentions here in the SP, after checking up on all the badgers that are in residence here? Could I interest you in a prepaid package of final destination planning? My employers are running a special right now... |

You're damn right. Even now after days of recouperation I'm still welled up. *Kloister thinks to himself - I knew he would engineer an opportunity to showcase his poetic artistry* Hey Christie...That is darn good Key Lime Pie *munch munch**With a poof! Kloister's outer garments vanish and levitates over the hot-tub* Hey! put me down you animals...I don't like heights and if my elbows get wet there is no telling what will happen... |

*Raises glass* ... CheersPleased to meet you Tool. Sorry if I perplexed you earlier with that episode in the stable yard. You'll have to blame the proprietors - they really do have terrible handwriting. The name of the person on the note they gave me was Hoola Hoop. You can understand the confusion. And WHERE did you pull those glasses from? Well Kloister, you managed to make it then. I thought you were taking the day off. Christie, can we take a rain check on that special offer? You were doing SO well. You have a terrific sales technique. Maybe we could get together another time for more margueritas and pie. And next time I'll bring the Jam. And as for the magic, goodness knows where you got that quote from. Someone's spreading scurrilous rumours. I deny it all I tell you, I deny it all. For now, I think I'm going to have to lie down. Enjoy the party ... ![]() *Wanders off in a daze, dreaming of times past and times yet to come ...* |

Well, if you must go.....waves sadly at PapaC as he wanders aimlessly away. Well, that was interesting...he is quite a fellow. Hate it that he had to leave so soon.....but at least I have still got you two..... snuggles in between TaH and Kloister and enjoys the clear, starry night above them........ by the way, TaH.....looks at him with a grin, takes a deep breath and goes under the water, resurfacing moments later with his jockeys in her hand. Throws them across the deck where they land in a potted Yucca plant....no clothes allowed in the Hot Tub!!! :lol: |
