Girls' day out West (Open to Titans girls)
Pippi may have joined the East team to stick with Mitzi, but she still visits when she can. After all, Iris remains her new bestest friend, and she has to visit King Triton now and then. Besides, much as she adores Dinah and Mitzi (occasionally to Dinah's chagrin), Cait is a <i>real</i> princess, so Pippi has to visit to work on quietly picking up princess pointers, just in case she stumbles into a Disney plotline.

She bounces in through the door, waving a credit card. "Alright, shopping time!"

Cait looked up from the book she was reading and blinked. She may spend one weekend a month in Atlantis it didn't mean she didn't have other Atlantean things to do. She was brushing up on Atlantean law and it was giving her a headache.

"Hi Pippi," she said with a smile.

"Hi Cait! You're coming shopping with me. You need a new dress." Pippi decides aloud. After all, she feels sorry for Cait, maybe if she had more outlets and nice things like dresses and good nails, she wouldn't feel the need to drink so much.

"I do?" Cait asked. She didn't recall needing any new clothes, but then again she wasn't one to really think about those things. Not to mention she really never had any extra money to spend on anything. Now she had some, thanks to Arthur giving her access to an account, but she never really thought about shopping.

"You do. Something that will complement your complexion, and go with your nails after we go get you a makeover. Hair, nails, skin... I'm buying... but you're coming along. Then we can do lunch. Ooohhh, or maybe a spa treatment, with the works, and a new dress! Even better."

"Uh...how about just a new dress?" Cait asked. The spa didn't seem like it would be fun for her or getting her hair done.

"Pft, don't worry about it. Mom's handlers assured me I could cover it. So I'm taking the girls here for a day out, and you're included. You could use it after all you've been through!"

"It's not the money, Pippi, it's just that I don't think I would like going to a spa. I'm okay with getting a new dress."

"Yes, but I ...oh fine." Arguing with Pippi was like arguing with a coral reef. It didn't budge or understand what you were saying.

Its true. Pippi goes directly from confused to celebrating Cait's obvious wholehearted embrace of logic. "Yay! We should get the other girls, they need makeovers too."

"Sure," she said. "Sounds like it'll be a good time." With others around maybe Cait could stay out of Pippi's line of sight easier.

"That's Pippi," Cait said and gestured toward Pippi. "I'm Caitria Curry and this is Ruth Morgenstern." Cait extended a hand.

She took the hand and shook it, while still being a little bug-eyed at Pippi. "Uh... okay?" she told Pippi, because how else did you react to that.

"Charlotte Runk," she told Cait. "I'm a friend of Iris's."

"Nice to meet you." Cait smiled. "The more the merrier." Along with a better chance of staying out of Pippi's line of sight.

"I know this lovely full treatment spa! We'll go there. The driver knows the place. Full treatment, lunch, the works. Then we'll go shopping. If anyone wants an extra massage or seaweed treatment, let me know so I can make sure the driver knows we'll be a little longer."

The last time Charlotte had seen anyone with this kind of energy, it hadn't been a someone at all, but a thoeretical particle that her dad had been studying.

"Damn," she said. "Now that sounds like a good day."

And Charlotte, to her misfortune, becomes one of Pippi's new favorite people.

"I know, right?! Mom's handlers said she was really proud of me for going through a whole zombie invasion without turning evil. And they made a bunch of money marketing a new line of indigo-themed power tools for girls, so I get to treat everyone!"

"We appreciate it and your thoughtfulness, Pippi." Just because Cait really didn't want to go it didn't mean she couldn't be polite and kind.

Pippi links arms with Iris, and goes skipping, yes, skipping, towards the limo.
"Come on. There's room for everyone!"

And its true - roomy, and well stocked with a variety of snacks, soda, water and the rest. But no booze. Not only are most of the girls underage, but more importantly, Pippi has confided in her mother's handlers that Cait has drinking problems that may run in the family, so they made sure all the champagne was cleared out.

Cait climbed into the limo wondering why they couldn't just take a taxi. She sat down and grabbed a bottle of water. This could be a marathon shopping and spa session and Cait would need all the strength she could get.

Thinking about it she grabbed another bottle of water.

Charlotte climbed inside with the rest. "Damn," she said. "There's got to be a lot of scratch on the table, right here."

Granted, her dad was pretty mega-rich too, but he wasn't showy about it, usually.

Slumber party. That sounded bad. Cait kept quiet and tried to stay out of the line of sight. She didn't want any part of slumber parties.

Charlotte really hoped she didn't have the look on her face she thought she did.

"That would be nice," she agreed.
