OOM: One of those days

Apr 01, 2007 15:46

Jilly had started a new series of paintings last week, and today she was putting the finishing touches on the ones that would form the bulk of her next show.

They were like something out of Christy's books - skookan. She'd based the goblin-like creatures on Goon, Professor Dapple's house servant, and she was pretty pleased with how they looked, all running through the Tombs and wreaking havoc.

The stone drum was returned to them, in one of the pictures. Not that she'd returned it yet. But she was thinking about it.

So when Jilly steps through the door to Milliways, she's ecstatic to smell curry. Warm, delicious, filling curry. She forgot to eat lunch, and it's dinner at home, so she eats the entire thing way too fast.

She did feel kind of...odd...after eating it though. Sleepy. Clearly, it's time for a quick nap.

Jilly looks for her door, but it's gone. "That's not right," she says, thinking. "No, not right at -" A yawn breaks the sentence, and she sighs. "I'll worry later. Bar, dear, could I have a key?"

One appears, and she thanks Bar sleepily and heads upstairs.
