A Day in the Life of a Cirran Bard

6. Am Waking up

GC: Oh Melissa, you are wonderful. Always going out of your way to help me, putting up with my quirky whims. Zeus knows how you it.

MM: It's nothing Goddess. Really, it's my pleasure.

GC: No, no little one, it is *my* pleasure. I must repay your generosity. What would you like? . A party? Breakfast in bed? A second home? A nice trip to the Bahamas? Anything, just name it and it's yours. Your wish is my....


HL: ((sing song voice)) Wake up sleepy head.

MM: ((mumbling, pulling the blankets over my head)) Go away Hudson.

HL: Well I would, but you are sleeping in the living room and I want to watch television.

MM: Well, I wouldn't be sleeping in the living room if you weren't sleeping in my room, besides, didn't Matt just send over a spare television?

HL: Yes, but it's so tiny.

MM: It's a 40 inch screen!

HL: That's what I said.

MM: ((grumbling, grab my blankets off the sofa and trudge into my bedroom, collapsing on the bed))


GC: Oh Melissa,

MM: Yes, Goddess.

GC: I was thinking, it's time Hudson moved out of your Temple Apartment. I mean, so what if that Morgan character is running around Cirra. You deserve a little peace.

MM: Oh Goddess, thank-you, thank-you, thank....


HL: ((calling from the other room)) Melissa, you had better wake up.

MM: Why?! Do you need someone to change the channels for you?

HL: Well, that's a fine attitude.

MM: Thanks, I try. ((closing my eyes))


GC: Oh Melissa....

MM: Did I say you could call me Melissa?

GC: Goddess?

MM: Better. Now, what can you do for me today my Bard?


HL: Melissa!

MM: ((thinking: Hades! Another dream sequence.)) WHAT?!

HL: Never mind, if you are going to be that way.

MM: ((get out of bed, stalk into the living room)) What?

HL: Nope, really. Not important.

MM: ((deep breath)) Hudson? What do you want?

HL: Well I just thought I should remind you that Cally is expecting you for breakfast this morning.

MM: ((blank stare)) Your joking, right?

HL: No. She's really expecting you.

MM: Since when? She didn't say anything to me.

HL: Since about 6:30. And no, she didn't say anything to you, she told me.

MM: You? Why you?

HL: Something about not wanting to wake you. And bards being rather grumpy in the morning. ((mumbing under her breath)) understatement.

MM: 6:30, did you say?!

HL: Yep. You had better get a move on Missy.

MM: Don't call me Missy. ((grab my car keys and head for the door))

HL: You might want to change out of those Pjs first. While I think they are adorable, Callisto might not appreciate the irony.

MM: ((realizing I am still wearing my Smokey the Bear Pjs)) I see what you mean.

HL: Oh and Melissa ((wrinkling her nose)) a shower wouldn't hurt either.
