: : Why, Bent - - and Miss Marcia! Whatever are you two doing standing out here in a snowdrift? And what was that streak of light that just passed me on the hill - - and the AWFUL crash I heard? What? No time to explain now? Yes, yes I can see! Miss Marcia looks terrible cold and shivery, and there's an icicle hanging off her nose and can I take her over to the House of Hoo Hah to warm up???!!! Why . . why. . certainly, I can . . . I mean, if there's no other place . . . well, no there doesn't seem to be any place closer, but . . the House . . ! . . . well, dearie me, if that's the only choice I suppose she certainly can warm up THERE. The place has a reputation for warmth I must say! (And Bent would know!)

: : Huff puff! All right then, come on, dearie. I just hope nobody we KNOW sees us going into that . . .. that . . PLACE!

: : Miss Gaylee Cooper
: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

: Ohhhhh, *shiver, moan* thankee kindly, Miss Gaylee. I don't believe I could walk so far without your arm to lean on. (Thinks: Pretty strong for an old Broad, ain't she?) Are you SURE we should *shiver, chatter, shiver* go INTO this place? I mean, I KNOW it will probably save my LIFE an' all, but what about my REPUTATION? Er, an' YOURS, too, of course. (Thinks: Probably HELP hers...bein' she leads such a DULL, bookish kinda life over to the library!) Well, if your SURE it's what Benton thinks best....help me up these icy steps, dear...*shiver, shiver, shiver*...

: *they step inside...*

: *Whispering in awe...* MY! So this is the famous House of Hoo-Ha! Don't know that I've ever SEEN so much RED VELVET before...an' lookit all that gold & crystal! *GASP!* Oh, my, my, my! Miss Gaylee...what on earth is that woman WEARING?? Or should I say, ALMOST wearing??? Oh, dear! What have we gotten ourselves INTO?????

: (They stand arm in arm, mouths hangin' open like broken trapdoors, swingin' in the breeze, eyes all bugged out and goggley, nose-cicle a-drippin' all over the fancy red carpet...)

Ahh, here we are by the fire, dear ladies, perhaps Miss Katie can squidge up a bit on the fainting couch and make room for you both......there you go......thats better isn't it. Isn't it just amazing how many people were out on a wretched night like this.....its lucky we have plenty of room here for everyone.
