D.E.M.O.N.S: Getting Summoned Weekly isn't so Bad

Chapter 537: Coming on a tour?

After Lillian had sufficiently embarrassed Kat they both settled down to hash out the final details. Kat said the oath Lillian had mentioned earlier on. Lillian signed off on a few forms confirming as such and tidying things up a bit. Once that was done and the nearby files were put away Lillian asked, "Now that that's all dealt with… do you want to explore the compound with me?"

"Sure thing, it sounds interesting," said Kat. As Lillian nodded, Kat stood up and stretched getting ready for Lillian to lead the way. So Kat was not at all prepared when a blur of motion was flying towards her. Instinctively reaching out her hands to catch the object, Kat easily caught what she realised was a young girl in her arms. Then she took an extra half second to look at the troublemaker.

In Kat's arms was a much smaller demon that looked similar but not quite the same, to her. It was obviously Lillian, but looking down at that moment, it was impossible to tell without extra background knowledge. The most prominent thing was of course the horns, now styled to match Kat's though they weren't as tall at the front, only coming up a small ways. About half-sized proportionally.

Her hair was blue instead of red like Kat's and the same length. Which meant, once again, proportionally it was all out of whack. 'Lillian's' hair was down to her waist, and while it was blue it had the same look and feel as Kat's own hair. Little Lillian's eyes were now purple, the same purple Kat's eyes went when glowing… but Kat was pretty sure she hadn't shown that colour off yet.

The outfit was adorable as well. It was a much more family friendly version of Kat's own. Not to say Kat's was all that inappropriate, but where her own outfit had large slits on the sides to allow her legs to be shown off, Lillian's was completely enclosed and went all the way down to her ankles. The only thing that wasn't quite proportional was the sash around Lillian's waist, it was only slightly smaller than Kat's own, which made it take up most of the 'girl's' midsection.

Which were covered anyway. She had traditional looking wooden shoes with the white socks that disappeared into the outfit somewhere, presumably they were at least knee high. The rest was matching Kat's to a frightening degree. The flowers all in their correct positions and the sleeves were just a little bit too long for 'Lillian' so they flapped about somewhat and just barely covered the 'young girl's' hands.

The wings and tail matched quite well, and were the correct size proportionally. This meant that both appendages were actually quite large with Lillian's wingspan being about the length of Kat's arms, with a tail of a similar length to both wings, only slightly shorter overall. The faint trace of purple at the edge of the spade tip sold the deal.

"Onwards Big Sis Kat!" shouted Little Lillian, with a voice that now highly resemble what Kat remembered herself to have sounded like at that age. It wasn't quite the same, of that Kat was quite sure, but it was very close.

*I wonder how much of that is guesswork and how much of it is intentional. I mean clearly she looks like a smaller version of me… but is she able to, with a glance, turn into a younger version of myself then tweak a few things so that she doesn't just look like a direct copy of me? I wasn't looking so I didn't see the transformation process but I wonder how much is automatic.

Like… did she tell her power 'I want to look like Kat but X age, with Y changes' or, did she have manually sculpt her body to that exact shape without any assistance? Both could be viable depending on when she got the ability. If it was later on, while I might expect more assistance, she likely has the brain power to slow down time and do it in a second even if it takes longer from her perspective.

I also wonder what's standard? Can she choose how it works? Like if she saw someone she could just swap into them, but if she had a picture she could sculpt everything and then go from there. Actually wait… is identity theft a big problem here? I know Lillian said it was strict for doctors… but what about other people?

Then again. It can easily be solved with a simple 'are you X person' but… I imagine you can get around that by answering yes, because 'you are X person… at the moment' so maybe it isn't as safe as I thought. Still, the real X could say they didn't do it and have no idea who actually did. Hmm… I wonder how common shapeshifting is… Oh and also…*

"Is it entirely appropriate for me to carry you around?" asked Kat as she adjusted her hold on Lillian. Having grown up in the orphanage it was a simple matter for her to get the 'kid' into a more comfortable position for both of them and her increased strength meant it was even less of an issue. Kat knew she could hold Lillian for hours, probably days, without issue physically.

"Well it's not against Faction policy I made very sure of that so… nope!" said Lillian happily.

"I meant more from a… well I suppose the perspective that it might be a bit demeaning for me, a lowly Rank 2 Succubus to carry around the great and mighty Lillian" said Kat with a good hint of amusement.

Lillian grinned, seeing that Kat was already on her side and knew she'd chosen well. Even happier with her decision to try and recruit Kat early, "Well, I certainly don't feel embarrassed in the slightest" said Lillian in the most childish way she could, adding on to her already childish voice, "I mean, my natural height is about what you see right now and I abuse it whenever I can.

"Besides. Trolling the employees is a bunch of fun. Especially because not all of them are used to it. I can't do it on my own any more because they've wised up to that… but you're knew. Nobody has really seen you before so… why can't you be bringing your lil' sis along right Sis?"

Kat smiled down at Lillian with a grin. *Well at least I've gotten definitive approval. This sounds like fun anyway. I do wonder how she's managed to say she's my sister. Is it the form? That makes sense. That form is 'Kat's little sister' and as such that makes me her big sister by some somewhat circular logic… but it just might work. If she's decided I am her sister for the time being I don't see where the issue would arise.*

Kat gave a shrug and headed for the door, not seeing the chairs returning to their larger sizes or the bookshelves leaning back towards the walls a bit at the tops. She certainly didn't see the two smiling Lillian's that had been left at the desk, each with a stack of paperwork but a wild grin on their faces.

The black door opened automatically at their approach and opened into the lobby this time. Kat took note of that interested feature that really is necessary for a door of such height. It would take up too much floor space otherwise.

The lobby was still mostly empty, but now the little desk near the elevator had Red in it. She was typing away on a physical keyboard while looking at a holographic interface. Kat could hear the slight clicking from where she was, as it echoed in the room.

*Huh Lillian's office must have good soundproofing.* Lost in thoughts of why only that keyboard seemed to be mechanical, Kat didn't even consider looking back at the door which showed her carrying Lillian. As they reached the desk and Red looked up, she did look over their shoulder and saw the door's version of Lillian wink back.

"Ah. I see" said Red in a slightly bored tone. "Terrorising the newbies again I suppose? Did you make sure to leave a clone for work up here!"

"Yes maaaam" whined Lillian trying to make 'mam' sound as much like 'mum' as she could without the lying limitations kicking in.

"Don't you sas me Lillian" said Red, "I may be just a secretary on the surface but I remember the document I signed unlike SOME of my predecessors. My job is as much keeping you in line and working as it is organising the things you don't really need to deal with and keeping a schedule for you. I know you're perfectly aware of the fact this position is actually an elected post and not one you chose yourself"

*Excuse me what? Red got chosen as the secretary not the other way around?! What the hell sort of implications does that have?*

Lillian just pouted at Red for a few moments before pointing to the 'elevator' and saying "Onwards my steed TO THE ELEVATOR!"
