Continued from In my Own Wonderland"Ahhh! Just feel that... smoggy... nasty... city air... Ah well, it's still a change from being surrounded by kids and monsters and Ministry Workers, oh my." Tabby laughed as she looked over at Kaliana. They were on their way to the spa after having left Hogwarts for an evening. They'd already gotten a hotel room, at a fairly swanky muggle hotel at that, and had left Firefly and their bags in the room, along with a very confused concierge on the part of Tabby. She twisted so that she was walking backwards in front of her boss. "Either way, I think this'll do both of us some real good. A nice round of massages and being treated like queens, some shopping and of course, drinking until we don't remember our bloody names!" Tabby's enthusiasm made a woman with two small children move out of their way with a look of mild fear on her face. It wasn't Tabby's fault she was large and exuberant. She laughed and grabbed Kali's hands, pulling her into the spa as they approached the doors. She was a giant kid with very sophisticated tastes at heart.

The farther they got from the castle, the better Lana began feeling. A sigh of pure pleasure escaped as she did in fact relish even the smog laced air, people jostling each other back and forth in their rush to whatever was more important than courtesy, and the music of horns honking in a shrill melody.
She smiled over at her friend and co-conspirator in the day of relaxation they had planned, but not really planned. "It is that! Really, I kind of miss the hustle and bustle of the city I lived in when I uhm....left the castle the last time." she said on a reminiscent smile as she shook the image out of her head.
As Tabby's exuberance turned the woman and her kids away in fright, she shrugged slightly with a 'who cares about you' attitude. They weren't there to make friends with the locals and she'd prefer if they all shied away. She was suddenly being drug into the huge building that was as beautiful on the inside as it somehow managed to pull off with it's facade surrounded by so many down trodden shops. A squeal escaped her as she looked around.. There were places for getting one's hair cut, colored and styled.. Places dealing with hands and feet. On more doors were signs advertising mud wraps, sea salt baths, massages of all types, and waxing. She wasn't a girly girl by any means, but she thought... Tabby was right... all this pampering is sure to do both of them a world of good.
"Ya know. I think you're right! We both need this.. So, what shall we do first? Or should we split up and meet in the middle?" she enthused terribly impatient waiting on her friend's answer as any number of combinations that she wanted to try ran through her finally clear mind.

Tabby looked around as well, tapping a finger to her lips and humming slightly. Finally she nodded, having come up with her game plan. She threw and arm around Kali’s shoulders and threw her other arm up in the air, one finger stabbing at the ceiling of the spa.
“I say we start from the bottom up!” She then proceeded to half lead; half drag her boss toward a pedicure room. She grinned, all too happy about her mini-cation with her boss and best friend. The pedicurist blinked at the crazy woman and shook her head to herself. At least she was getting paid for this. She carefully led each of them to a station and settled them in for a soak before she began on their nails. Tabby couldn’t keep from squirming, so shoot her she was ticklish, and trying to hide it.
“D-don’t tell any-hahaha-anyone abo-ouhouhouht th-hi-hi-hisss!” Tabby laughed as she tried to threaten Kali, she couldn’t help being ticklish! When that was done Tabby dragged them to a waxing station, thanking management and human dignity that the stations were private as she separated from her friend for a few moments. The inhuman screeching that followed was testimony to the fact that Tabby didn’t bother to shave anywhere, then again who had time to shave when they were being run over by animals and young students daily? She limped out, followed by laughter from the woman who had been in charge of the waxing.
“Owww… I did not know it was possible to bleed from one’s hair follicles…” She would let Kali chose their next station.

Lana was dragged toward a station with a grunt, the attendant at the station meeting them with a curiously accusing, yet knowing stare. She put the feeling out of her mind as she was ushered to a chair and allowed her feet to be put in the bath to soak. Tabby's incessant giggling soon turned to laughing as she tried to get out what Lana assumed was a threat not to tell anyone. An amused grin broke out as she crossed her fingers behind her back and swore not to tell anyone. "I promise it won't leave this room by my lips." she giggled as the lady doing her feet suddenly hit a tender spot.
Lana had just had the goofy little flip flops placed on her feet from the lady applying the polish in a shade of purple that was just two shades from twilight as her friend had shoved her into a tiny private or semi private room with still another woman. Very soon she learned what she was in for, the screams from the next room she assumed were coming from Tabby.. Slightly frightened she tensed up as the woman began to apply wax all over including the most private place. She let a string of curses that would turn a sailor blue as the strips of wax were jerked from her skin, pulling with it any and all traces of hair that had occupied her body.
Walking just a little gingerly and bow-legged she met up with Tabby and groaned as her friend relayed her experience. "I didn't know that stung that bad!! Woah!" she exchanged a weary look with Tabby as she debated inwardly what she wanted to attempt next. Though the thought of grabbing a take home kit teased the back of her mind.. Oh what torture she could place upon Zadiken.. In his sleep if nothing else.
Eyes scanning the room she spotted a sign sporting "Massage, 1 hour." and giggled like a school girl.. Just the thing to loosen up the muscles that the waxing had tensed up. She grabbed Tabby by the arm and made to that part of the spa on a run. "This should help the soreness.!!" she laughed as she close to threw her friend toward the station, a cute guy and not too bad looking woman smiling and holding open identical doors. She turned her head and smiled at her cohort, giving her a wink she asked her friend which she wanted. "So..... Boy or Girl this time?" she giggled.
