Oct. 8th, 2011 10:33 am[She turns on the video feed as she reads aloud this thing she found called a 'horoscope' from a magazine she found'. The general idea of this horoscope intrigued her, so she decided to see what hers was for today.]
Maybe I will take myself out to lunch today. That sounds like a wonderful idea! So does a massage and just reading a book in my room with no distractions.
Yes, that sounds like a plan!
[With a small giggle, she looks towards the camera with a smile and then turns it off.]
((ooc: Estelle is affected by the That's Your Horoscope for Today curse. Basically, she is going to be very unnaturally selfish and could care less about that child that may have just tripped and hurt themselves right in front of her.
Action open either for housemates/people visiting the house when she's holing herself up in her room, or out and about getting her lunch, that massage or just wandering about the City.))
"Make a date with yourself as soon as you possibly can -- take yourself out to a nice long lunch, buy yourself that hot new gadget you've had your eye on, book a luxuriously long massage or just hole yourself up in your bedroom with a good book for a few hours. Today you've got to do something for yourself -- and let everyone else fend for themselves for the day. If you don't remind yourself that you're worthy of indulgences and preferential treatment every once in a while, then who will?"

Is there something you want?
[Said as she continues to pet him.]

Date: 2011-10-08 08:15 pm (UTC)Is something the matter?
action;
Date: 2011-10-08 08:18 pm (UTC)He gives a little, gruff bark and shakes his head. He's already a dog (without a collar at that), so he should have anything more to be embarrassed about with people seeing him pampered. ]
action;
Date: 2011-10-08 08:25 pm (UTC)Though seeing that nothing was really wrong, she just smiled at him. Maybe he's lost his owner? Oh, well, then, hopefully his owner finds him even if the lack of a collar would suggest he's most likely a stray.
Oh well, more petting the dog!]
action;
Date: 2011-10-08 08:33 pm (UTC)...But he's an active dog-person, and this is getting boring. After a few more strokes, he stands up and shakes himself off. They should do something! Bark! ]
action;
Date: 2011-10-08 08:58 pm (UTC)That bark snaps her back into reality once more. Maybe he's bored and wants to play! Yes, they could do that. Looking around, she spots a stick and picks it up.]
Would you like to play catch?
action;
Date: 2011-10-08 09:27 pm (UTC)When she picks up the stick, his tail automatically starts wagging again excitedly. Why is he so dog-like today? But yes, he barks and really would like to play! ]
action;
Date: 2011-10-08 09:58 pm (UTC)Watching his reaction from her picking up the stick, she giggles, then throws it in front of them.]
Okay, go get it!
[This is already so much fun! Now hopefully he chases it, picks it up and brings it back.]

Date: 2011-10-08 10:16 pm (UTC)[She rewards him with a pat on the head, all while giggling, then goes to throw the stick once more. All of this is like a dream come true for her, to actually spend time with an animal like this, even if others would consider it normal.]

Date: 2011-10-08 10:47 pm (UTC)But seeing him go after the stick once more and come back with it, she can't help but be wonderfully delighted. Maybe she could take the dog home! But her massage...
Maybe after her massage, she can take the dog home and convince everyone there to keep it? This dog seems to like her, unlike Hamlet who sees her and walks off...
And thus once more she throws the stick. It's so repetitive, but she can't help but she's savoring every moment.]
action;
Date: 2011-10-10 02:43 am (UTC)If she tried to bring him home, well... He wouldn't resist! He'd have no problem staying for a little while as long as he got home before midnight. If he was going to find out his fur wouldn't change into clothing, he would want to find that out in his own room. ]
action;
Date: 2011-10-11 04:04 pm (UTC)Getting the stick one more time, she simply places it on the ground and pets him a few more times.]
I have to go now, but if you’re still here when I get done with my massage, I would love to take you home!
[With that, she turns away, waving at the puppy.]
I hope to see you then!
[And off she walks to her most important appointment.]
action;
Date: 2011-10-12 02:48 pm (UTC)Sitting down in the street, he waves back by shaking his paw at her. She even gets a bark good bye! Hopefully she won't feel too bad when he's gone later... ]
