[color=#990099]"Well...I am glad to see you, Xerox. I didn't want to lose a part of my new family. I'm sorry I couldn't get here faster."[/color]

The words that had been offered to her by Xerox were comforting in a manner, helping the caster smile as she took his hand and stumbled up onto her own two feet before he went on his way off. Her legs were rather tired from all of the rushing to get over here, and it took its wrath on her up until the point that Duncan came and began to speak to her with...quite the fluster, might she say. With a soft laugh falling through her attempts to keep it sealed up as he cast a cocktail of supportive spells on her body to get her walking straight and walking tall. Instead of fading into embarrassment over what she had done, she owned up to it instead and reached out -- rather, attempted to, before he stepped away and went about busying himself with orders. Her little PuPu came back to her side, prompting her a look of confusion as she picked him up and placed him back into her side pouch to let him rest in the meantime as everyone started moving about and moving along. Looks like she'd be getting in trouble if she was mentioned in the report...Well, it was too late anyways, if the Doctor reported her leaving.

[color=#990099]"Ah?...Y-Yes, sir! Whatever you say."[/color]

He wanted her to come with him?...Maybe he was looking to lecture her for the spell-stealing kiss? Or perhaps something on a more positive note? She could only hope for such a positive reaction as she stepped close to his side and laced her fingers together behind his back in order to come to a "relaxed" stance. The magic had taken its effect, finally showing her that she'd actually taken a few more shots than she'd realized -- seventeen bullets in total, three of which she actually coughed up while waiting on him to give her appropriate instructions since she was honestly still in the dark on matters.

[color=#990099]"Huh. They say blood tastes like copper...I figured I'd bitten my tongue or something. I guess I'd been shot instead. Well, I'm glad I didn't notice until now. What should I do in the meantime that we're together, Instructor?"[/color]
