vivala1 - I wish I had a faster therapy / I'm here to mind control your needs
Deedee and her employees are busy, busy, busy as Imperial middle management and low-level officers flock to a warm bath in the face of the chill. The bathhouse stewards are absolutely pampering their subjects so they'll let slip all the gossip that's worth reporting to the higher-ups in the Corsairs, then upselling their patients on pedicures, manicures, shaves, haircuts, and massages.
And, of course, providing such comfort and sometimes medical aid to visiting Corsairs as they require. Deedee is always happy to do her reports while giving someone who badly needs it her unique healing combination of bodywork and Breathwork, of massage and magic.
She invariably starts such treatment by warming a neutral oil in her hands, and asking her patient, "Tell me where you're keeping your tension right now?"
2 - Blinding lights, thunder tremble pack / muddy hearts, beanie babies lies
If there's one thing the casualty count impressed on Deedee, it's that the fighting is only going to get harder, especially if the mad plan that's starting to form in her brain is to have any chance of success.
So she's procured a halberd and is practicing, on the beaches and in the Vault, both the magical and the martial arts - and how to use them together.
She goes through all her old techniques - the whirlwind flurries of the Nine Tail Lash, the devastating air-to-ground missile that's the Gryphon Talon Kick, the conjured cutting winds of a Gale Blast, various body reinforcement techniques. It's quite a spectacle if anyone is looking on.
She badly wants sparring partners or - after meeting with Atom and the reminder of how much about magic she doesn't know - magic tutors. Which is how she finds herself bouncing on her heels and stretching, getting ready for instruction, of one kind or another.
"Right," she asks. "What's your specialty? How will we go about this?"

Or seek out Deedee for something else! I'm not your mom. Surprise me!
