Marcillus was fascinated by the creature. She'd seen them all around but they were expensive to buy and hard to win so she'd never managed to get one for herself. And she was so gentle! The calm attitude really helped to soothe her frayed nerves and she found herself smiling more genuinely in the few minutes she spent playing with Song.
When Yulu's voice broke in, then, she blinked and looked up, immediately feeling guilty to have dallied so long the other had actually finished her work. "Laughing at someone hardly implies anything positive," she murmured, "And... thanks."
It was a rather flat sentiment as she would have rather gone at it alone then relied on the strength of another - especially if she were to make a good impression. And she couldn't very well tell her surpervisor that she did this all without any help... Marcillus only hoped she might be cut some slack because Yulu had reduced her to tears.
Maybe. There was nothing for it but to see.
Once Yulu left, Marcillus settled into re-organizing a box or two while she waited for her supervisor to come back and inspect her work.
