Leo actually stopped walking to think, staring down at Babette with a distant look. "Mm.." ..And then started walking again, the linked arm a bit tighter than before. It didn't look like she wanted to talk about Wilhelm.

They practically tripped over Ellen and she floated out of the way before settling onto her feet. They had apparently passed through the boundary... Ellen- "Ahem. Well, let's go back to the new abbey and wait. The Marcheses should be calling us soon."

"Hellooo. Fabulous idea." She straightened her hat and followed Ellen.
"By the way. Sorry for the trouble, Darlings. You must have been searching high and low. The mothkins woke me this morn ... evening. I thought they represented my destiny. Moth to the flame and all that. I assume they were Aubrey's illusions? He's rather talented." She wouldn't follow random moths again. At least not without Ellen or Leo present. Babette was sure of that.

Ellen- "I'd like to think your destiny will not involve flames."
They walked back to the new abbey and waited for the call. Ellen explained more. Ellen- "Marchese is going to call us tonight, and at least collect Babette - assuming he doesn't flake out. But Leo, you aren't committed. In fact, I'm sure you'd rather do something else. A lot of the other young vampires will be getting together tonight to train with Vitus. If you'd rather go there, I can drive you to it after Babette gets to where she'll be...
Babette, how do you feel about being press-ganged into this production? It can be useful to us, given the circumstances, but we can figure a way out if we need to."

"Thank you, Ellen. That's very kind. Fortunately, I'm thrilled to join Marchese's production. Yes. See, Lychgate CANNOT be my first and last hurrah. That movie was wonderful, of course. Powerful, symbolic, artistic material. Mmhm. So deep. But I want more." She stared into the distance and pondered thoughtful thoughts.
"If somebody cut off my fingers, would they grow back? Like lizard tails?"

Leo gave Ellen a 'Say a word about the outfit and I will bite you' look, and tugged on the assortment of necklaces around her neck like it was too tight. "Not committed eh? Fine by me. I'd like to get the illusion stuff down anyways.." More thoughts of puppet-mastery ensued.
"Uhm. I don't suppose I can get out of this gettup and put on my actual clothes?" She gestured to the clothes that were now slung over her shoulder.

Ellen- "Leo, do you think you could re-assemble that outfit in a hurry if you needed to? If so, wait until we get the call & change, and then change back when we return. Just wear it for tonight while you're here. He'll forget about it by tomorrow.
Babette, yes. But it takes a while and is really gross. On the other hand - heh - if the fingers are fairly intact and it's the same night, you can hold them in place and heal faster."

(Cheesy astronomy show theme!)Familiar Voice on Ellen's Phone- "Ellen darling, can you receive us yet? It's time for little Babette to make her mark."
Ellen- "Yes, we're definitely ready to go."
Wilhelm- "Wonderful, shall we meet you in 'zeh lot, or does the Lord want to say hello?"
Ellen- "Oh no, I think he's uh, not in a very good mood right now. Let's just leave him to his... pursuits."
Wilhelm- "You don't haff to tell me two times. See you soon!"
Ellen- "That's great, thank you."
Ellen- "I guess decision time. Sounds like Leo isn't expected at the movie set. Want to meet the other group tonight?"

Leo answered in the affirmative (I think) and Ellen quickly sent a text message to somebody. Too quickly - maybe she'd pre-typed it. Shortly after that, they heard a honk. Ellen thought they should go out together to avoid having anyone left alone, despite Leo-ish reservations, and...

Trinity - NEEEEEEEEXT NIIIIIIIGHTLeo woke to Greyburnish foolery and Ellen running interference. Ellen and Leo dropped some Scheherazade stylez in that cut, until Chloë came and spirited Babette away. Finally, Aubrey left her alone with Ellen, who was furiously making plans on the cell phone.
Ellen- "Sorry, my texting must be a bit maddening for you." She put the phone away.
Ellen- "Things are a bit confused tonight. Demetri will probably take a few people to train in martial arts, but Eli, Jason, Jack, and Darren are all going to see a therapist, and Vitus wanted to know if anyone else was interested. What do you think?"

((New graphics yes? I'll edit them back to her costume if not.)) "Therapist?" That was probably a good opportunity to get some stuff off her chest, but then again, training with Demetri sounded a lot more appealing. "I'll take the martial arts."

Ellen- "Alright, I'll let him know. Hm..."
The texting proceeded, until finally she had an arrangement.
Ellen drove Leo to a fancy office building in the heart of downtown, hit the underground parking, and escorted her on high into... a new chapter. Proceed when announced. ((Note - I still have some other cats to wrangle, will be very slow to respond.))
