Jenee wakes to an empty bed. But, her anger yesterday, introspection last evening and a good night's sleep has allowed her to awaken to a, if not happy, content mood. She realizes she was wrong to try to change Daniel and hopes he finds the happieness that has eluded him all those years and drove him into a life of crime.
Once the coffee shoppe is open and running smoothly, Jenee sends a nice chai tea over to Hippie Lady with Soda and a note asking her to ... allow him to ... come and go with her own children for the day.
She then sends a peppermint mocha and a caramel macciato over to the deli.
She might lose twice as much revenue today as she did yesterday, but she must rebuild her kharma...

"My dear Deranged Nasat, there is nothing to worry about here, after all you are being well paid yes?
Besides when you see the fruition of my work, you will not need to worry about 'the gov'ment' any more.
Oh, the bar will be closed tonight for a special function but I'll need your help setting up. Its time and a half pay."
pats Deranged Nasat on the shoulder reassuringly before walking off whistling an unidentifiable tune.
"Good morning, Hippy Lady."
It has been a strange morning for Daniel. His first night free of Jenee's spell was not quite what he expected. He expected to see the world anew, to feel liberated, changed, righteously restored - but that's not quite what happened. Once the spell was reversed, he felt exactly the same as he did before - angry at Jenee.
Wandering the streets, he tried to think of some way to get back at her, to make her feel the way he did... but he couldn't do it. It hurt that Jenee had only ever wanted sex from him, but he couldn't bring himself to hurt her, or do anything that might upset Soda. Even without a spell, even hurt and confused, he cares about them. They changed him.
As he sat miserably on a curb, pondering the universe, Hippy Lady came along and invited him in for a chat. One thing led to another, and after spending a wonderful night with Hippy Lady and proving himself no-one's slave, Daniel sits, eating breakfast at HL's with Soda, and wonders about the future...

Jenee contemplates life, the universe and everything while enjoying a nice sandwhich at the deli.
She knew telling Daniel the truth would send him away. Much as she loves him, she must let him live his life on his own terms. Putting a spell on him to bring him back to her was wrong, and now, she would pay for it.
Ah, well. Such is life.
The deli owner does have some nice chest and should muscles ....

Kirsten enters the deli, trying to remember who runs / owns it. She hates learning new people / places. She waits to be served, wondering what she can buy to take home for dinner....
"Thank you, I will. Is it sit in only or can I stop by before or after work and pick something up? Don't worry about yesterday."
I'll do that - sounds a good plan, as long as I remember to bring a mug with me. How've you been today?
Hippy Lady prepares a lentil nut loaf for 9, what with Daniel and Soda staying over. At first she felt a bit guilty for last night, but after Daniel had told her what Jenee had done, those guilt feelings quickly disappeared. She did feel a bit sorry for Jenee, who was obviously pining for love but, erm, going about it the wrong way.
Hippy Lady wonders if it was time for a change of lifestyle. Of course she would never give up the New Age stuff, but perhaps she should cut down on the funny green plants hidden among the herbs in the garden and the Happy Mushrooms. With Daniel here, sobriety was much more appealing. Heck, with Daniel here she felt more confident to face Posh Lady, should she ever return. After all, he would support Hippy Lady, wouldn't he?
Speaking of, a limousine appears on the street and stops in front of the house. Oh, dear. Time to face the music...

Realizing that Ice is walking toward the Bookstore much more slowly than it first appeared, RJD heads over to the Coffee Shop for a cup of tea. He remembers to bring his own mug, a large ceramic design with tentacles and bat wings.
"Hi, Jenee. Earl Gray, hot."
Hmm.
"You seem to be upset. Nothing to do with Daniel's spell being reversed, I hope."

You're so sweet. **pats RJ's hand affectionately**

Lieutenant Commander
Well the order is done and shipped off to Wal Mart. I kept a few Happy Fun Balls for my own personal use, though.
Time to check my email.
Hmmm... Ha. I can do better.
*dials hardware store* "Yes... Hi it's me. I need that big steamroller and all of your Christmas lights.
*dials Radio Shack* "I need 400 pairs of speakers, wires and crossover bridges. Fantastic!"
*dials R.J.* "Hey R.J. I need some way to enlarge a steamroller to comically absurd size...."

Ziyal takes a last look around her little cottage.
Her moving sale wasn't very successful, so she spent this morning dragging the unsold items to the nearest Goodwill donation center. On the way back, she stopped by the coffee shop and, of course, the bookstore. She gave RJ her forwarding address and a big good-bye hug. Having not run into the Crazy Cat Lady at either place, she stopped by her house. CCL wasn't at home, so Ziyal left a note asking to be notified at her new address if any of the non-liger kittens is available for adoption.
Wiping a few tears away, she locks the door for the last time and heads to the airport...

The Crazy Cat Lady, who has a phobia about saying final goodbyes to people, emerges from her house once Tora Ziyal leaves.
Daniel's on the roof of Hippy Lady's place, removing the nasty twitching zombie leg. He sees Zora Ziyal go past on her way to the airport, realizes that this is it. He grabs his phone and starts texting...
Posh Lady's limo pulls up outside HL's place. Daniel, who's been in a bit of a daze recently, remembers that HL is the twin of PL, whom he wanted to seduce for her money, which led to his break-up with Jenee.
Unfortunately, Jenee's warnings are echoing loudly in his head, and he realizes he doesn't want to hurt either HL or PL. HL told him that PL "wants something" from her. Daniel goes inside to offer moral support to HL during PL's visit, and play peacemaker...
After that heartfelt goodbye, Daniel climbs down off the roof with the twitching rotten zombie leg, which he throws up the road as far as he can. It lands outside Crazy Cat Lady's house, where one of her kitties starts nibbling on it...

I wish people would stop feeding zombie parts to my kitties, it makes their breath smell.
Deranged Nasat shouts goodbyes to Tora Ziyal on her way out. He's walking a thin line here between his two crazy and murderous employers and his own tendency to regress into muttering irresponsibility. Having a friendly face around was appreciated, and he'll miss her.
She's gone to a better place. There aren't any goats on Vulcan...
