[Dream-Backdated]

[tetrabiblos]

[Lucy's dream seems almost mundane in how with how relaxing it is, the wizard giving a happy sigh as she sinks low into her tub, aromatic candles burning around her and a nice thick book resting within easy reach. It all seems so perfect…until the view pulls back, and suddenly there is a rather large and muscular man with the head of a panther and

[Zenobia just stares. What... what the hell?

Turn her back to normal! And go back to the part where she was in the tub! BACK TO THE BATHING!

[tetrabiblos]

Fear not restlessdevil, I have heard your pleas. Look out at sea, now back to me. What is it? A handful of diamonds.

Now down. Back up. The Diamonds are now Lucy!

[Specifically a very confused and wide eyed Lucy, who has not yet realized she's sitting naked in a sud filled bathtub in the middle of a beach.]

W-what in the world was that?!

[restlessdevil]

Wow! You are very gracious! Thank you! Restless devil? I guess... that sort of describes me. More like half-devil.

[She turns to Lucy.] You're back! Is there room in the tub for one more?

[tetrabiblos]

Of course. My greatest joy is to see to the happiness of ladies everywhere, which is why I hand carved the Himalayas into a massive heart shaped scratching post, just for them.

[Lucy's just going to ignore the cat right now. The sheer logic holes in this dream are enough to almost send her into an existential crises.]

Back...but..how did I even...wait, room for one more what?]

[Blinking in confusion, Lucy looks down at herself, and for a moment one can almost see the wheels turning in her head. Then everything clicks together, and she reacts about as calmly as one might expect.]

[restlessdevil]

[Zenobia looks away, disappointed, and waits for Lucy to stop freaking out.] Er. Sorry.

You okay?

[tetrabiblos]

[Lucy actually recovers surprisingly quickly given the circumstances, sinking lower into the tub to blow sad little bubbles in the water before surfacing]

It's okay. I should be used to this by now. [She feels sort of bad now, and with a hesitant smile says]

You're welcome to come in if you still want to. Wouldn't be the first time I shared a bath.

Already you can see the power of Old Mage can make any lady unable to resist your pass-

YOU CAN GO AWAY!

[restlessdevil]

[Zenobia turns around.] Okay! [She quickly strips down to the nude.] I could use a nice, relaxing bath.

...Who is the panther man anyway?

[tetrabiblos]

[Lucy blushes slightly, but avoids any further freaking out, sneaking a curious peek]

[Shifting back to make room for the other woman, she lets out a sigh as she collects a pile of bubbles in her hands to cover her chest.]

I have no idea. He looks sort of like a friend of mine back home, but that cat is probably one of the sanest people I know. He certainly never tried to turn me into diamonds before.

[restlessdevil]

[Zenobia is blushing a little, but otherwise doesn't seem all that embarrassed. She steps into the tub and lowers herself into the water.] Aaaaaaaah.

Huh. Maybe he's... ...I dunno. Under a spell or something.

[tetrabiblos]

[Lucy relaxes too, sinking as low as she can with her knees pulled up tight against her chest. It's not that large of a tub after all] At least the water is nice.

Maybe. [One hand comes up out of the water to tap her lip with a finger nail] Though, aren't there no men in the garden?
