Or we could just make her snap out of it...

*Slowly approaches Mari, crouches down to peer into her face and smiles sweetly before suddenly slapping her hard around the face a few times until Mari raises her weapon and whacks Gwennie across the face*

OUCH!

*Flies backwards across the floor, landing on the who is promptly sick before pinning him under her against the opposite wall where they both sit dazed in a puddle of vomit*

mari is looking her old self again, I see.
*Crawls back under the burning door, where he feels safer ....*

*Speaks through her hand which is cradling her rapidly swelling face*

You coward, Kes!

*Pushes herself clear of the and the puddle of vomit*

C'mon ! Up you get!

*Hears movement from behind her and turns to see Mari advancing on her*

Mari! Err...Look...I was just trying to help! Mari? Noooooo!

*Evades a second swipe from an enraged Mari's weapon*

Help!

*mari-rae slips in the vomit and falls backward on the who passes out*

*Shazz moves determindly towards Mari-rae, ignoring the raised weapon*

Come on Mari-rae... Gwennie was trying to help you know!

*Ducks as Mari takes another swipe*

Damn! This isn't working!

We could do with some of Alicat's love potion or something... Mari is definitely having an ID crisis. I wonder what that earless Demosian actually did to her!

Oh yes... whilst we are in the ablutions block it may be a good idea for Pierce and Gwennie to hit the showers!

shazz

*Muffled*
If there was room under this flaming door, you could join me, but there isn't.

*comes around in time to hear Shazz' and Kes' last words*

It's okay, Kes. I don't mind hitting the showers with Gwennie

*Dives for cover under the still smouldering door*

Budge up Kes! Sorry about the smell of vomit!

Shower your way under here !

*Elbows Kes in the ribs to make him move over*

*Peers out from around the side of the door, to see mari approaching. Pushes his way back under cover*
Move over! I got here first!

This is getting ridiculous! *grabs mari-rae and drags her to the bathroom* This should do the trick! *pushes mari-rae into the nearest cabin and gives her a cold shower . And then a hot one . And then again a cold one *

Sorry for bering such a , honey, but it's for your own good. Here have a couple of

I hate to say this Pierce... but I think all the BFG's would agree that YOU also need a shower!

*Pushes Pierce into the cubicle and turns on the cold tap... full blast*

shazz

*Struggles for room under the door against Kes*

Oooff! No! I thought you old geezers were supposed to give way to us ladies!

*Peers out in time to witness the having a shower*

I hope he's treated his wooden leg against the elements!

Somehow I just knew this was going to happen

Ah, well - as long as also I get the

"Old Geezer" !!! Whaddaya mean "Old Geezer"?
I'll have you know I'm not a Geezer!

Finds hugs fluffy towel for ... and another for his wooden leg and hands him

Well... the air is smelling much sweeter now, apart from those decomposing Demosians of course!

Where to now gang?
Should we explore this complex a little more?

shazz

Hey, just because it's small doesn't mean I have a complex. That water was very cold, you know?

May I have a big fluffy towel too, please?????

*dripping on carpet.*

Oops Sorry Mari-rae... I didn't realise you'd get wet as well... I thought it was just and Gwennie

*Produces another big fluffy towel and 3 for Mari-rae

Now... what was that about small ? Teehee

shazz

*Peers out from under the door and slowly climbs out, putting her foot in the old geezer's ear as she does so*

Mari? Err...are you...y'know...okay?

*Prepares to run for cover*

I think Shazz in in charge of the fluffy towels. She's over there - behind the - the one that pushed you into the shower...

*Hopes that Mari doesn't remember the slapping incident*
