Cursed Gifts
Sometime later, on the 8th floor…
Miss Chievous has just about had her fill of the spa’s amenities, and is preparing to make that fact everyone else’s problem.
Once she’s finished washing up, drying off, and redressing, she harasses the diligently working service bot that she claimed one last time.
“Hey, where’s Mary? Off in some corner somewhere with 23, right?” As Miss Chievous asks this, the bot stops for a moment before answering.
“Miss Calculated’s last known location is Mind Flare’s office, accompanied by 23. They have not been seen for well over an hour, but are presumably still there.” Before the bot even finished speaking, Miss Chievous snorts with amusement.
“Yeah. They’re definitely still there. ...Aaand where’s his office?” After this question on Miss Chievous’s part, the bot doesn’t have any hesitation before giving its answer.
