[not long after the bell is rung, vulpecula appears behind sheila, calmly sipping at the can of starlight j*ngle juice.]
Thanks! I think we could all use some refreshments after... um, that. Did you get something to drink for yourself, too?

It's okay if you do! That's what housekeeping is for. [a beat.] Wait, that's not a responsible thing to say.
[a few moments after sheila dings the bell, there's a coalescing of shadows from nearby, and out steps orion! they take their starlight c*ke and put it in their sleeve.]
Hello, Mrs. Hammond. How are you faring, after earlier?

[a few moments after sheila rings the bell, shadows converge on the other side of the desk - and out steps virgo, who is shoving what looks and smells like french fries under their veil in between sips of starlight c*ke]
I was in the middle of a meal! Fuck!
[hi]

[She raises her eyebrows.]
Nope, especially if you won't be the one in charge of cleaning up my throw up. [VULPE??] ... Which, by the way, speaking of throwing up— One of your co-workers made it sound like you could help with my, uh, dietary restrictions?

A little annoyed, actually. Thanks for asking. I killed a guy and I didn't even get to feel the tingle before his body got up and walked off on its own.
[She has been ripped off. :( The worst. But also— she looks a little worried, all of a sudden?]
... I didn't bite him. I mean, I don't remember biting him. Did I bite him? I don't taste any blood in my mouth.

[ oh... orion's sort of stoic, shoulders back posture shifts a bit? reactive to her worry, maybe, as they come a little closer. ]
You didn't, no. Rather, I think you may have attacked him with everything but your teeth... and Mr. Sieghart met his end through a window.
Does that assuage your worries some?

I do logistics, so I'd be involved in assigning someone to do it, but... yeah...
[a beat.]
Which one? What did they say, exactly?

You summoned me! What else was I supposed to do?
Fuck. What do you want?
Fuck. What do you want?
Ohhh, right.
So, there's no easy way to say this. So, I'm just gonna say it? If you're hungry, we can get you something to eat, but it's not going to be very fresh. [they seem to wince, but it's hard to tell with the veil.] There'll be another option which'll be pretty obvious what it is later, but it's going to require some work on your part.

What, and have everyone go, "oh, that one doesn't answer! I will just talk to someone else"? No! I'm just as capable of doing things as everyone else, in fact I'm more capable, hahahaha...

The first part is nothing to be concerned with.
[ wow ]
... Though, perhaps it could be related to your problem. Did you see which way that he went?

Ugh...
[She was so spoiled by Sebastian... This should count as a despair indulgence. "Wrong game." Despair indulgence.]
I guess we'll see if not fresh translates to edible, but I still need to eat. Is the other option murder? Because I can already think of one guy I would not mind shoving in a tiny ice box.

I can get you something small if you want to try it out...? Otherwise I can... see if we can find more of that jerky for you...
[they fidget a little.]
That's an option, but it's not the only option. I think you'll recognize it when you see it.
[perhaps on a sunday rather than the tuesday this audience is set on.]
