Posting this now for interest of time and because Rag hasn't been on for 3 days. The girl's night out segment will be left unfilled until I have Rag's actions for this turn in case Danica is participating as well.

~Farzaneh~You go back to the store and buy a few goods to make a new servant. The ingredients are fairly cheap, but it's still most of your money. (-$330)
You take five hours practicing some sort of gut feeling you had for defending yourself. The practice seems to be going incredibly well, but something still feels off. You feel like you're close to something new, though, so the practice seems to have been worth the effort.

At the end of the day, you gather your materials, and get to work on a new servant. Everything is going fairly well, until Cero suddenly shows up, and drops a few unknown ingredients into your pot, giggling to himself, then vanishing. You see the pot begin to rumble, and immediately duck for cover, as the pot explodes, a small piece of shrapnel just barely grazing you. You let out a sigh of relief, and look back up to whatever it is Cero has done to you. Standing in the middle of where the blast was seems to be a clone of yourself, with red skin and hair, and deep green eyes with black sclera. A few liberties seem to have been taken with the level of beauty, as while she looks like you, she is markedly more attractive, which kind of pisses you off.
When you finally approach, she takes a knee in front of you, giving your hand a gentle kiss before speaking, "
You seem to be my new mistress. I am Helveska, a Succubus of Hellfire. I am yours forever madam, please use me as freely as you wish." After a few minutes, she also takes a form of her own, no longer a glamorized version of yourself.
[You may not have found romance at the club, but some time spent with Helveska seems to show that she genuinely loves you. Consolation prize?]Command(6+4

~Jack~You spend more time to yourself training. This time, however, things go remarkably different. As you swing your blade, you discover new and terrifying ways of attacking you had never even thought of. You feel your body go weightless and your mind blank, and by the time you awaken, you feel you've lost the bulk of what you had learned, retaining only a bit of it.

You go down to a local mall to hang out and relax. It's been a while since you last did this. It feels good to get back into it. While you're hanging out, you notice a group of guys walking around giving off a faint magical presence. You confront them, and find out that they're actually elves disguised as humans scouting out a place to hold a concert for their band. You hang around with them a while, and get their contacts, and leaving a good impression. When you separate from them to head home, they promise to introduce you to some "hot elven groupies" if you come to their performance. (Elven Band contact information acquired)

~Alessandra~You take some time at the gun range working out how to use your gun. You had never bothered to before, figuring it wouldn't be necessary. But after the fight with that former pundit, you feel you can't afford such luxuries anymore. You take your place at the shooting range and load the gun with some of the practice ammo provided. You line up your shots, and begin firing. One after another, your bullets fly closer to the mark. After a long day of practice, while you may not have learned much practical combat skill, you feel comfortable with the gun now.

You go online and spend some time finding tickets to a baseball game. The purchase is quick and simple enough, though slightly expensive. Maybe this will get Farzaneh to finally look your way, though, so the price is potentially worth it. (-$150, +2 baseball tickets)
~Danica~You begin your day practicing the deadly arts of stripper magic, and quickly get into a jolly pace. By the time you feel you're getting the hang of a new spell idea you had thought up, you feel an explosion rush through your arm. You look down in panic, but your arm is fine as it ever was, save for some sort of tattoo that suddenly appeared. You feel another explosion come from your arm, but this time some...
One comes out of the tattoo. It's what appears to be a demoness, one who seems far more acquainted with stripping than you could ever hope to be. She looks at you and scoffs. She raises her hand and snaps her fingers, planting some sort of rune spell on you. You feel your energy draining and pass out. When you wake up a few minutes later, you notice the rune is still on you, but the demon is nowhere to be found. You also notice that your clothes are in cinders. When you go to get spares, you find
all of your clothing has been reduced to cinders.
[A demoness has placed a curse on you, destroying all forms of clothing you own. You have been assured the curse will fade eventually, but until then, any and all clothing you come into contact with will disintegrate.](1/1+2
Critical Failure)
Despite the curse, your day is not yet over. You go to the mansion's private library and research old strippermancers like yourself for any sort of defensive magic. Much to your chagrin, defense seems to be one of the lowest priorities of those who strip out of their clothing to attack. There's no true defensive magic, but you do find something of interest which you bookmark for later.
