"Okay, I'll make you a deal then. Just try this one out for me and if you don't like it, then we leave immediately and we go try some magic. OK?"
After speaking, Eta took a nearby dress and then tried to lead Lois to the changing room, if there were no objections from her. She tried to pick the most comfortable and expensive-looking dress she could find.

I shall call upon the powers of....Circle of Overflowing Blankets!
Go somewhere where no-one can see me and cast my new spell.

((Don't forget to post your sheet along with the spell list.))

You walk off to an area behind a nearby jewelry store and try your spell.

[Your affinity roll: 2]

Unfortunately, no circles seem to appear! None whatsoever.

Larry checked his own face to see if it was calming down like Halesey's.  Hmm.

Check face.  See if the hand where the blessing went in is reacting to this place in any way.  Can he talk to anything through it?

Ooh! Your face is almost its beautiful former self again, or at least it seems that way - your lips seem to have receded, at least, and you generally seem normal, you think!

Also, your blessed mark appears to be feeling right at home around this place. You attempt to speak to it, and immediately receive an answer.

"Hey, hey, hey! How's it going, man? Keeping it real and holy, I assume?" the voice of the van angel comes in suddenly.

"yeah, you've reached John. Why did you call me? Who is this, even?"

"Uh, I'm... James?" the man says. "Have you seen my wife?"

"Yeah. I'm Dave I accidentally created the world and was temporarily worshiped as god or something. What's up with you?"

"Not much. So, can you do anything useful?"

You feel like your alcohol buzz might be wearing off.

"Okay, I'll make you a deal then. Just try this one out for me and if you don't like it, then we leave immediately and we go try some magic. OK?"
After speaking, Eta took a nearby dress and then tried to lead Lois to the changing room, if there were no objections from her. She tried to pick the most comfortable and expensive-looking dress she could find.

You pick a nearby dress and lead Lois off to a changing room, handing it to her in the hopes that she won't walk around in a bathrobe forever. She puts it on and steps out - you find that you may have miscalculated a little, as it seems a bit too small for her, and yet also a tad too long for comfortable walking.

"I don't like it. Sorry. Can we go?" Lois says after changing back into her bathrobe.

((Still preparing?))

This was more of a miniturn - Toaster, Pancaek and Froggy had information-based actions, and darkpaladin is really behind in the timeline, and I kind of wasted a turn for Paris by not resolving his previous bit of dialogue. So yes, still preparing.

"They couldn't even keep vows? Is that why they're there?" asked Halesey, whilst shooting off another potato vortex to centre on his own head, for kicks, and for the experiment of then bouncing after some of the locals and seeing if the vortex comes too.

Eta sighed in resignation. "Fine. At least let me get you some extra... bathrobes, I guess."
Go see if this store sells bathrobes. Buy a few.
"Anyway, I promised I'd tell you about what happened. So, I woke up early so that I could try some magic. Let you sleep because you looked like you needed it." Eta began telling her short story.

Unfortunately, it does not as far as you can see.

"Well, okay. And?"

"I... I don't remember. And I'm here, too... can we meet? I'm... I'm not sure about all this... there's some kind of... I don't know. Do you know where... uh... Bernski's is? I could... uh, meet you there?"

You can't say you know where Bernski's is, unfortunately.
