  1. [19:41] <Daichi> A small clipping of a newspaper, barely noticeable. Requesting maids to a mansion previously thought condemned when the late master died under mysterious circumstances. There are rumors the master had a son, who else would have made the ad?
  2. [19:41] <Daichi> The time is the early 1900's in a time when magic has flourished, granting many modern conveniences, and some rather spectacular ones as well.
  3. [19:44] <Daichi> Calling on the ad you are directed into the lush countryside, houses are far and few between- and each one more lavish than the last. At the edge of a forest sits the mansion in question. You come to a cobbled road leading to a large white mansion, you can see there a young boy is on a ladder, scrubbing at a window of the mansion with a rag.
  4. [19:45] =-= Daichi is now known as Thomas
  5. [19:47] * Nyssa_Pritchart is quite casually walking up to the mansion, looking quite happy as she manages to rage the front.
  6. [19:47] <Nyssa_Pritchart> reach*
  7. [19:48] * Thomas is busily washing a window frantically, "This isn't good...They'll be here any second!"
  8. [19:48] * Johanne walks up to the mansion, glad for the maid uniform not exposing much of her skin. The white gloves she wore also helped to draw away from the fact that all of her body was covered in bandages, save for most of her face. Small bits of green hair can be seen through the top of her head wrappings.
  9. [19:50] * Thomas climbs up to the top of the ladder, reaching to another window
  10. [19:50] <Carrissa> "Hey, hey, this isn't bad. Hmm~" Carrisa speaks out loud to herself as she approaches. She shouts out to the kid on the ladder. "Hey Boyo! Do you need some help up there?"
  11. [19:50] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "...ah...hello?" Nyssa looks up at the window washer. She then looks over at Carrisa. "You here for the ad, too?"
  12. [19:50] * Yusa walks along the cobbled road playing with her revolver. She aims at random trees for fun as she heads to the front of the mansion. She squints with her one eye trying to see who is cleaning the windows. "Who the hell is that?" she mutters to herself
  13. [19:52] * Thomas is startled and sways back on the ladder, oh no! "A-Ahhh~!" luckily he manages to catch himself and slides down the ladder, "Um, actually I wrote it! Hello!" he nods politely. A young boy with short brown hair and...Well, he was painfully average looking.
  14. [19:52] <Carrissa> "Yeah, I'm in need of a little cash, that's all."
  15. [19:52] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "You wrote it? Ah, so who is the master of this mansion?"
  16. [19:53] * Thomas noticed Nyssa and more people approaching, "Goodness, I didn't expect you all to get here so soon...I'm the master actually! My father's maids left when he died...I've been trying to keep the place presentable. But it's not going so well..!" he laughed awkwardly, "Please, won't you come inside?"
  17. [19:55] * Thomas headed for the door, politely opening it for the others
  18. [19:55] * Johanne kept quiet as they did their little introductions. She scoffed, what a ragtag bunch~ She then stepped ahead of Thomas as soon as he opened the door, not saying a word.
  19. [19:55] <Downy> The rustling sound of metal followed Downy from each step she made. The majority of her blue-colored maid uniform was comprised of armor, such as a breastplate with spiky shoulder-pads. Ahead of her, she observed a few individuals heading toward her destination, she began to hasten her slow pace.
  20. [19:55] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oh, uhm, sure!" Nyssa isn't really taken aback, just a bit surprised.
  21. [19:56] * Thomas nods his head as each person walks inside
  22. [19:56] * Yusa runs to catch up with the others. She heads inside.
  23. [19:56] <Downy> "Woah! Hey! I'm not too late am I?" Downy said.
  24. [19:56] <Carrissa> "Sure, I'll help, Boyo, sounds interesting!"
  25. [19:56] * Carrissa stepped past him, slipping a hand across one of his shoulders in passing with a smile.
  26. [19:57] * Thomas waits for Downy to come inside, Thomas doesn't seem to have a reflex to the touch but smiles with a soft blush
  27. [19:57] * Downy bowed her head down to Thomas as she entered. "Thank you!'
  28. [19:59] * Johanne stood by a wall, seemingly looking around the mansion. In her head she was taking notes of all the little areas that would neat to be scrubbed. "Hmph, such a mess..."
  29. [19:59] -->| Daichi|sleep (garizard@8B12D52F.8F04BA5E.51B045F.IP) has joined #MAIDRP
  30. [20:00] * Downy perked her blue head up. "It doesn't look to bad."
  31. [20:00] <Daichi|sleep> "You're very welcome!" he nodded and followed inside, closing the door behind him and skipping ahead to stand at the foot of the stairs that lead from the lobby downstairs to the bedrooms upstairs, "Uhm..Let's all introduce ourselves! My name is Thomas. Could I...Hear all of your names, please?"
  32. [20:00] * Nyssa_Pritchart sighs a little. "Ah..wow, this place looks cool. Oh, and I'm Nyssa."
  33. [20:00] |<-- Thomas has left irc.thisisnotatrueending.com (Ping timeout)
  34. [20:00] =-= Daichi|sleep is now known as Thomas
  35. [20:01] <Carrissa> "Carrissa~ You can call me 'Carrie' or 'Risa' if you like, Boyo," Carrissa said with a wink.
  36. [20:01] * Thomas nodded with each name politely, saying "Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you!" in turn
  37. [20:01] * Downy bowed. "My name is simply Downy."
  38. [20:01] <Yusa> "My name is
  39. [20:01] * Johanne ignored Downy for the most part, and walked about the room to get a better look around.
  40. [20:02] <Yusa> Yusa"
  41. [20:02] * Thomas pulled a scrap of paper from his pocket and started to scribble something down, "There were a few more things left to do to get this place in working order...Would you mind if I put you to work so soon?"
  42. [20:03] * Downy shrugged. "Might as well get to it."
  43. [20:04] <Carrissa> "Sure, I don't mind."
  44. [20:04] <Thomas> "Right!" he nodded, energetically as he wiped his brow. "If I could have the [windows washed], the [weeds pulled] out front, the [lobby dusted], and the [kitchen washed], that'd be great."
  45. [20:04] * Yusa twirls around her revolver and puts it away, cowboy style. "no problemo"
  46. [20:05] <Thomas> "Thank you very much!" he bowed
  47. [20:05] <Johanne> "Yes. Where are your... No, I have one already."
  48. [20:05] * Johanne takes out a duster from her apron, which seemed to be bulging from the occupation of other tools of the trade.
  49. [20:06] * Downy whistled. "Quite a bit of tasks there. I'll try to clean the kitchen up."
  50. [20:07] <Carrissa> "Hmm, I'll go manage the weeds outside, if you don't mind, Boyo~" Carrissa called over her shoulder as she retraced herself back out the door.
  51. [20:07] <Thomas> "I'll just be upstairs then! I dirtied my clothes cleaning by myself."
  52. [20:07] * Yusa adjusts her eyepatch. "I guess I'll be doin' them windows then"
  53. [20:07] <Thomas> "That's just fine, miss Carrissa!" he waved as he bounded up the stairs
  54. [20:08] * Johanne walks off, holding the duster close with a mad glint in her gray eyes.
  55. [20:09] * Downy walked off into the direction that she believed would be the kitchen.
  56. [20:09] * Thomas heads off to his room to change into some nicer clothes, it was no wonder they didn't think he was the master!
  57. [20:09] * Nyssa_Pritchart follows Downy to the kitchen as well
  58. [20:10] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "This is going to be fun!"
  59. [20:10] * Yusa goes outside and tries to adjust the ladder. She let it fall too fast into one of the windows and breaks it. She looks around and runs back inside
  60. [20:11] * Downy arrived to the kitchen without much trouble, unaware that somebody was following her due to how much noise she made while walking.
  61. [20:12] <Downy> "Where to start? Where to start?" Downy exclaimed as she observed her new surroundings.
  62. [20:12] * Nyssa_Pritchart pipes up.
  63. [20:12] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oooh, can I help?"
  64. [20:13] * Downy turned her head slightly, catching a glimpse of an unfamiliar figure. "Uhm... Sure? Yeah. I suppose so."
  65. [20:13] * Thomas heads back downstairs, tugging on a sloppily-put on tie, "I can never get these right..."
  66. [20:14] * Johanne seemed to be everywhere at once, dusting the smallest places that could possibly hold even a speck of dust with an unsettling glare in her eyes and a steady grip of the duster in hand. By the end, the lobby looked like a clean room, there was not even a bit of dust in the air!
  67. [20:14] <Carrissa> "Oho, Boyo's right, these grounds could use a little managing. It could look a lot nicer... Let's get these weeds out~!"
  68. [20:14] * Carrissa stepped about the grounds, and pulled a matchbook out of her clothes, brandishing it between her fingers. Suddenly, small fires burst into life and consumed the weeds quickly, crackling them to a crumbly dark ash that blew away in the wind.
  69. [20:14] * Carrissa took a match from the matchbook and struck it, watching it burn as she walked in, and blowing it out as she reentered the mansion, looking pleased with herself.
  70. [20:14] * Thomas blinks, observing Johanne, "T-That's really very impressive!"
  71. [20:14] * Yusa enters the lobby yawning and stretching she sees Thomas come down stairs. "Well, I just cleaned them windows like y'all asked"
  72. [20:15] <Downy> "I guess I'll start over at the sink and its nearby counters. How about you cleaned the stove and anything else that's near it?" Downy suggested.
  73. [20:15] <Downy> *clean
  74. [20:15] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Sure thing." Nyssa looks around a bit... "Oh, we need cleaning cloths, right?"
  75. [20:15] * Johanne glowered at her handiwork. "Ahh~ So... clean~" She giggled and held the duster like a doll, until she heard the master! Almost dropping the tool, she turned quickly away from the master. "I-it's nothing!"
  76. [20:16] * Thomas looks up, "You did? How wonde--Oh dear! I-I think the ladder must have, umm... fallen into a window! Goodness..."
  77. [20:16] * Downy nodded. "I imagine that they'll be under the sink."
  78. [20:16] * Yusa looks around. "Well...I don't how that happened sir, I guess it was the wind"
  79. [20:16] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Hm..." Nyssa absentmindly pats her dress down, as she find the aformentioned cloths.
  80. [20:17] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "...or, these too."
  81. [20:17] * Nyssa_Pritchart hands them to
  82. [20:17] <Nyssa_Pritchart> Downy
  83. [20:17] * Downy took a cloth. "How convenient! Thanks!
  84. [20:17] <Thomas> "That's too bad..." Thomas nodded, believing Yusa completely
  85. [20:19] * Yusa nods. "Well, then. I'd better go water that garden. It looks a little dry". Yusa walks out of the mansion and looks for a watering can
  86. [20:19] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "No problem...but I wonder where I had these? Oh well." Nyssa hums to herself as she helps out.
  87. [20:20] <Thomas> "Well, I have to get in my practice for the day if you'll excuse me." Thomas bowed to anyone left in the lobby and headed for the living room, sitting before an easel and canvas with a set of paints
  88. [20:21] <Thomas> Someone seems to be crouching in the bushes at a window near the flower garden
  89. [20:21] * Johanne walked off into the dining room to make sure the other maids were taking good care of the work.
  90. [20:21] <Carrissa> "Boyo, I took care of the weeds in the front. Have you been working hard? I'll make breakfast for everyone, I think."
  91. [20:21] <Downy> The sound of metal clanking against each other was accompanied when she scrubbed the surface of the sink and its nearby counters.
  92. [20:22] <Downy> The clanking finally stopped when her task of cleaning the kitchen was finished. Hopefully it didn't make Nyssa a little insane from the noise. "How are you doing over there?" She said as she wiped a trail of sweat from her forehead.
  93. [20:22] <Thomas> "Hmm? Y-Yes, miss Carrissa!" he called, working on a painting
  94. [20:23] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Ah, I'm alright..." Nyssa also wiped her forehead on her sleeve. "Whew. That certainly worked out."
  95. [20:23] * Yusa finds a watering can and waters the plants. Completely oblivious to the person in the bushes
  96. [20:23] * Johanne watched Nyssa and Downy from the doorway, her stare was a little eerie...
  97. [20:24] * Downy gave Nyssa a smile. "Yeah... I don't believe I heard you name, so I'd like to introduce myself before you do. My name is Downy."
  98. [20:24] <Downy> *your
  99. [20:24] * Thomas seems to be sneaking the occaisional glance at Johanne, not too concerned she wasn't at work at the moment.
  100. [20:24] * Carrissa sets herself about in the kitchen, making some breakfast~! She almost gets distracted by the flames and the sizzling sound, but produces a very edible meal~!
  101. [20:25] * Downy was startled from Carrissa's appearance and her immediate cooking.
  102. [20:26] <Downy> "That smells great!" Downy directed her complement to Carrissa.
  103. [20:26] * Johanne watched Carrissa's movements with a little flush on her cheeks. For some reason her brow seemed to be knitted in... frustration? Anger? It's hard to tell, but it seems to be at the very least one of annoyance!
  104. [20:26] <Carrissa> "Hey there, missy. One moment~ Ladies, Boyo, I made some breaaakfaaast~!" Carrissa yells out, setting it on a serving plate~
  105. [20:26] * Yusa finishes up with the plants and heads back into the mansion. she goes into the living room and takes out her revolver and twirls it around a little
  106. [20:27] * Thomas looks up, "Oh, coming!" he stands and rushes over to the kitchen. "It looks good!"
  107. [20:27] <Thomas> dining room*
  108. [20:27] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oh, I'm Nyssa, I'm -" She's cutoff but Clarissa's sudden appearance, causing her to fall backwards. "Oof! Where'd YOU come from?"
  109. [20:27] * Thomas takes a seat at the head of the table
  110. [20:28] * Johanne slid back away from the doorway quickly, hoping not to be seen. "A maid! She's really a maid~ So... admirable~" The girl thought to herself, her expression taking one of content happiness.
  111. [20:28] <Downy> "Please to meed you, Nyssa. Might as well grab some grub before we begin on any further chores."
  112. [20:28] <Carrissa> "Thank you! I hope it's as good as it smells. Feel free to snatch a piece early if you're hungry, missies."
  113. [20:28] * Yusa goes into the dining room twirling around her revolver she takes a seat and puts her gun down at the top of her plate
  114. [20:29] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Of course!"
  115. [20:29] * Thomas looked amiable eyeing his food, but called out, "So...Could I ask something?"
  116. [20:30] * Johanne composes herself and walks into the dining room stiffly. She gives not even a glance at anybody in the room as she sits down.
  117. [20:30] <Carrissa> "I came from a far off land! Where dragons and knights roam and fight. I'm Carrissa, Carrissa, missy!"
  118. [20:30] * Nyssa_Pritchart takes her place at the table.
  119. [20:31] * Downy isn't to far behind from Nyssa and took her seat near the dining table.
  120. [20:32] * Yusa leans back and adjusts her eyepatch. "What is it Thomas?"
  121. [20:32] <Johanne> "Hmph, dragons and knights. You must even wear that armor to bed! How unsightly."
  122. [20:32] <Thomas> "...How much do you pay maids?" Thomas looks oblivious.
  123. [20:32] * Downy digs-in, in her meal. "It ain't so bad if--NOM--you ask me!"
  124. [20:32] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Uhm...a lot?" Nyssa looks equally clueless.
  125. [20:32] <Thomas> "O-Oh, ok! That makes sense..." he nods
  126. [20:33] * Thomas digs into breakfast
  127. [20:33] * Johanne almost sputters as she hears Thomas' question! "Wh-what do you mean! Of course they are paid at least X for a..." She goes on, detailing specifically what the salary should be depending on seniority and other factors.
  128. [20:34] * Thomas looks up from his food, "Well...Could I pay you in gold?" he tilted his head
  129. [20:34] <Johanne> "...Not to mention how many assassins you drive away! Some maids have been known to pay hitmen just to get a raise."
  130. [20:34] * Yusa leans forward and puts her elbows on the table. "Well, sir. It depends on what yer usin' them fer, and how long you use 'em. I'd say about 50 bucks a month"
  131. [20:34] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Gold? Uhm, sure!"
  132. [20:34] * Nyssa_Pritchart looks pretty happy with that.
  133. [20:34] <Thomas> "Hitmen? None of you would do that right...?"
  134. [20:34] * Johanne looks to be lost in her own tirade...
  135. [20:35] * Downy shrugged at the question. "What kind of question is that?"
  136. [20:35] <Thomas> "I just thought I'd ask..."
  137. [20:35] * Thomas finishes up his food
  138. [20:35] * Carrissa sits down with the rest, glowing with the thought of everyone loving her food~ She looks over at Johanne.
  139. [20:36] <Carrissa> "You sound like you have clinking armor plates yourself. Relax and take some off~" She looked at Tom a moment before turning her gaze ceilingward. "Yeah, that sounds like about what I need. Deal, then!" Carrissa held her hand out for a handshake, beaming--from well across the table, not really expecting to be taken up on it.
  140. [20:36] * Yusa shrugs. "Well, I could do that hitmen thing if you want, who you wantin' to kill at yer age?"
  141. [20:37] <Thomas> "I don't want to kill anyone!" he shrinked back
  142. [20:37] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oh, you won't have to. I wouldn't worry about that, anyways."
  143. [20:37] * Yusa leans forward. "Then why are you askin'?"
  144. [20:37] * Downy perked her head up. "Maybe that's me?"
  145. [20:38] <Thomas> "I don't know...I wanted to know more? I guess? Uhm...S-Should I give you all more chores once you're done eating?"
  146. [20:39] <Johanne> "C-clinking..." She frowned! However, that was the most she would allow herself as she pierced her food with a fork and ate quietly. Johanne dropped her head, hoping to hide her flush after tasting the meal. "So good... I won't let her see me enjoying this!" She thought.
  147. [20:39] * Yusa leans back. "Sure, why not"
  148. [20:39] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Uhmm...alright!" Nyssa smiles a little. "I'm alright with that."
  149. [20:39] * Carrissa leaned back in her chair when she's done. "Well, how much is left to be happy with it, Boyo?"
  150. [20:41] * Thomas bowed, "Then...I would like..." he still had trouble ordering people around, "The [laundry] done, the [stairs] cleaned, and the [living room] cleaned. T-That will be all until lunch, I'm expecting a guest later today..."
  151. [20:41] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Alright, then...I guess I can go with the living room. Anyone wanna help?"
  152. [20:42] * Downy bowed her head. "Very well. I'll help, Nyssa."
  153. [20:42] * Thomas started heading for the living room, when the door burst in, a lumbering wolfman pinning Thomas to the ground. "H-Help..!" he called
  154. [20:42] <Thomas> front door*
  155. [20:42] <Johanne> "..." Johanne stood up, leaving her food behind as she held up a rag and walked back to the lobby...
  156. [20:43] <Thomas> The wolfman made to bite at Thomas
  157. [20:43] <Carrissa> "Hey, Boyo, what's the trouble here??"
  158. [20:43] * Yusa stands up. "Guess I'd be going to clean them stairs" She picks up her revolver and grabs a broom from somewhere.
  159. [20:43] <Thomas> "I'm being attacked!"
  160. [20:43] * Johanne charged at the wolfman, no time to take her weapon out!
  161. [20:44] * Yusa drops the broom and runs to the living room she takes aim at the wolf
  162. [20:44] * Carrissa jumped up at the slammed-open door's noise. She might've walked a little more slowly than she should've, though. She just wasn't a running person.
  163. [20:44] * Downy flanked the wolfman from Johanne's side, wielding a spun flail. "BAD DOG!"
  164. [20:44] * Johanne caught onto the rug as soon as she attempted to break into a sprint and fell face-first onto the floor...
  165. [20:45] * Nyssa_Pritchart stands up and runs into the room, spotting the scene. "Wh-what the hell?"
  166. [20:46] * Yusa tries to fire but the gun clicks..she forgot to load her gun...
  167. [20:46] <Thomas> Thomas looked more shocked than wounded as the wolf bit into his arm
  168. [20:47] * Downy ended up missing the wolfman, but the floor was pretty splintered from the impact of her flail. ._.
  169. [20:47] <Carrissa> "Ah...wolf? A werewolf? This is almost like a fantasy story!" Carrissa remarked as she stepped around the corner, pulling out a match and lighting it.
  170. [20:49] * Nyssa_Pritchart whips out her trusy M4 Assault Rifle and aims carefully, loosing a 3 shot burst into the center of mass, as she' had been trained to do."
  171. [20:50] <Carrissa> "Hey, get off Boyo, you!" she called as she struck the match and a burst of flame...shot right past it into the wall. It didn't catch, luckily.
  172. [20:51] <Thomas> The wolfman backs off, letting go of Thomas and rearing on the maids with a snarl
  173. [20:52] * Yusa grins. "Well lookie here. some kind of mongrel got into the house." she loads her gun and cocks it. "guess we have to put 'im out"
  174. [20:53] * Johanne picked herself back up, looking annoyed and pissed at the wolfman. Also, the rug. Its days were definitely numbered.
  175. [20:53] <Thomas> The wolfman lurches forward, swiping at Nyssa
  176. [20:55] * Nyssa_Pritchart attempts to block with her weapon, but his claw strikes true and Nyssa is pushed back. "Ow! Jerk!"
  177. [20:55] * Thomas crawls away from the wolf, looking at his arm, stunned. "I..."
  178. [21:01] * Yusa fires a couple of rounds of bullets at the wolf creature
  179. [21:02] * Downy raised her flail high above her head and swung it at the wolfman!
  180. [21:03] <Thomas> The wolfman looks weak, growling at Downy, bleeding profusely
  181. [21:03] * Nyssa_Pritchart aims again and unleashes an exquistely aimed silver bullet - between the eyes.
  182. [21:04] <Thomas> The wolfman twitches and falls to the ground, dead.
  183. [21:05] <Downy> "Yaaay~!" Downy cheered!
  184. [21:06] * Thomas stands up slowly, "G-Good job, everyone! It's so strange for the wolves to come out of the forest like that..."
  185. [21:06] * Johanne stared carefully, then slowly put her claws back into her apron. She didn't even get to put them on...
  186. [21:06] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Whew. That was a bit harrowing." Nyssa blows the smoke from her rifle as she stores it into her dress again. "So, about cleaning up the living room..."
  187. [21:06] * Carrissa held another match in her hand, but at the wolfman's fall, she slipped it into her pocked as she walked over, quickly.
  188. [21:06] <Carrissa> "Boyo!"
  189. [21:07] <Downy> "That wasn't too bad. But how are we going to tend to Thomas' wounds?"
  190. [21:07] * Thomas looked up to Carrissa, "I-I'm fine really!"
  191. [21:07] * Johanne snapped her head to Thomas' direction. "Will there be more attacks?"
  192. [21:07] <Thomas> "I hope not...Uhm...Could someone [fix the door] and [clean up the lobby]?"
  193. [21:08] * Yusa puts her gun away. she blames depth perception on not being able to hit. She touches her eyepatch and shrugs.
  194. [21:08] <Johanne> "Hmph." She walked into the kitchen to grab a broom, then walked back to the lobby...
  195. [21:08] <Carrissa> "That's silly."
  196. [21:09] * Carrissa sat down beside Thomas and tried to feel about his arm; if it wasn't bleeding, it was turning an ugly shade.
  197. [21:09] * Downy sighed as she went out to the tool shed to pick up a few items to fix the door.
  198. [21:09] * Thomas rolls up his sleeve, there were definitely puncture marks at the wound, and it was trickling blood slowly. He didn't seem to be in pain however, "Is...Is this bad?"
  199. [21:11] * Johanne swept up the wolfman's corpse onto a dustpan... somehow.
  200. [21:11] * Carrissa shot him a wry smile. "Well, it's certainly not good."
  201. [21:12] <Thomas> "I see..." Thomas frowned
  202. [21:14] <Downy> Instead of fixing the door, she simply nailed the new front door down. That'll stop any potential intruders! :D
  203. [21:14] <Downy> "That'll stop any further wolfmen attacks!"
  204. [21:15] * Johanne harumphed as she cleaned up the last of the mess, even managing to gloss over the damages to the floor and walls. She walked upstairs after she disposed of everything... and tossing tthe wolfman corpse into the forest. Johanne, after reaching the top, watched down at the others- allowing a little worry to crack her mask of anger...
  205. [21:15] <Thomas> "I should hope so..." Thomas looked to Carrissa, expecting her to treat the wound?
  206. [21:17] * Yusa walks over to Thomas and kneels down. "Well I'm no docter but that's lookin' purty bad, though it's only a flesh wound. Lemme treat that fer ya"
  207. [21:18] * Carrissa looked over the wound, this way and that, but didn't know anything about this stuff. She stood up, annoyed at herself, and stepped out the side door, startling the others. A metal sound of spinning pedals followed as she sped madly down the street to get some air in her face, on the bicycle she brought.
  208. [21:18] * Nyssa_Pritchart smiles as she cleans up the living room for her master. "Ah, there we go."
  209. [21:18] <Downy> "Someone should go get that painful fizzy stuff to get rid of any potential infections."

  215. [21:20] <Thomas> "W-Where'd miss Carrissa go?" he looked up as Yusa tended to his wound, "Thank you miss Yusa..."
  216. [21:20] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Uhm...actually..." Nyssa produces said idodine peroxide.
  217. [21:20] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Here, is this what you need?"
  218. [21:21] * Downy looked a little puzzled. "Uh... Sure..."
  219. [21:21] * Johanne watched, then gripped the rails as she walked back down.
  220. [21:23] * Downy took the bottle of the fizzy stuff to Thomas. "Maybe this might help it heal a little quicker?"
  221. [21:24] <Thomas> "If you say so!" he nodded
  222. [21:24] * Yusa botches up the bandaging. "well um..this ain't how I planned this.."
  223. [21:25] * Carrissa pedaled hard, wind in her face, banking back when she felt comfortable. She sighed. 'She'd thought she could ...' Carrissa's thoughts trailed off, as she returned to the mansion in short order. Trying the front door and finding it immobilized.
  224. [21:25] * Downy poured the entire bottle at Thomas' bandages.
  225. [21:26] * Thomas looked out, not seeming to react to the fizzy stuff on his arm, "Someone's at the door..."
  226. [21:26] * Johanne sighed as she watched this display. "You're all doing it wrong, here..."
  227. [21:27] * Thomas looked around at everyone tending to his wound
  228. [21:27] <Downy> "Oh? If you knew how to treat his injury, then why didn't you offer to help?"
  229. [21:28] * Yusa stands up. "well, miss genius. why dontcha treat his wound"
  230. [21:28] * Carrissa realized she was being silly and walked around to the side...joining the still-unbandaged Thomas, with a group of pretty ladies bending over him. Oho.
  231. [21:28] * Johanne pushed Downy aside as she took a towel to the wound. Then, grabbing the bandages she... pulled them with all her might! It might even be cutting off circulation!
  232. [21:29] * Downy sighed. "I'll get the door."
  233. [21:29] <Thomas> "Miss Carrissa, you're back!"
  234. [21:29] * Thomas looked down to his arm, "My hand is turning purple..."
  235. [21:29] * Downy traveled to the door to open it slightly. "Who is it?" She asked as she slightly opened it.
  236. [21:30] <Carrissa> "Nah, that was me, Downy. Shut the door--might be another pup outside. You're still untended Boyo? Sorry I wasn't much help."
  237. [21:30] * Johanne muttered something as she back away from Thomas, her annoyed expression coming back in full force.
  238. [21:30] * Yusa yawns. "You look like yer doin' worse to the boy than the mongrel that was here"
  239. [21:30] <Downy> "Oh." Downy replied as she slammed the nailed door.
  240. [21:31] <Downy> Well now semi-nailed door.
  241. [21:31] * Nyssa_Pritchart is looking around. "Uhm...anyone else need help?"
  242. [21:31] <Thomas> "I-It's alright Carrissa! Everyone's trying their best!" he nodded
  243. [21:31] <Downy> "What were our chores before the attack anyway?"
  244. [21:31] <Johanne> "It's still effective! Hmph! Now if he had an infection it wouldn't bother him!"
  245. [21:32] <Thomas> "Well, [clean the living room], and [lunch] would be nice..."
  246. [21:32] <Carrissa> "Ladies, ladies, ladies, what's going on here? Trying your best is silly if we kill Boyo off!" Carrissa said, noticing the puddle, strewn bandages, and all-in-all failure of first aid. "Let's work at this together, c'mon now!" she said, stepping up and beckoning her arms
  247. [21:33] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Well, I managed to clean the living room up."
  248. [21:33] * Downy nodded in agreement with Carrissa. "You're right! Count me in!"
  249. [21:33] * Thomas blinked, not all the hurt by the wound really. But excited by the show of teamwork, "Alright!"
  250. [21:33] <Thomas> that hurt*
  251. [21:34] * Johanne backed away. "Y-you can do that! I'll be doing the things that maids should be doing!" She huffed, then stalked off to the kitchen.
  252. [21:36] * Yusa yawns and followa johanne into the kitchen
  253. [21:36] <Carrissa> "Ho~ Let's get to it, Downy."
  254. [21:37] * Downy cleaned their previous attempts of tending to Thomas.
  255. [21:37] * Carrissa sat back down and set the master's shoulders on her lap. "Loosten up a little for me now, Boyo." She nodded to Downy with a smile.
  256. [21:37] <Downy> Mainly that fizzy stuff that she pour.
  257. [21:37] * Johanne mutters angrily. "...ot trained for medical ca...tupid fancies...ice but..."
  258. [21:38] <Yusa> "What's eatin' you?" Yusa tilts her head

  261. [21:39] * Johanne whirled about, her look of anger falling into shock. Quickly, she recovers herself... "Nothing." She heads into the kitchen, then started chopping up vegetables...
  262. [21:39] * Downy took a needle and a roll of string to stitch up his bite. "That's a pretty deep cut, so I figured that this might help."
  263. [21:39] * Downy turned her attention to Johanne as she left them. "What's with her?"
  264. [21:39] * Yusa walks up to Johanne. "I'll help if y'all don't mind"
  265. [21:40] * Thomas looked down, not flinching at all as the needle passed through him, "Uh huh, thank you Miss Downy..." he looked off to Johanne, "I don't know...But she's nice all the same." he nodded
  266. [21:41] * Downy shrugged. "If you say so."
  267. [21:42] * Carrissa was very back to normal after her short ride, and brushed a hand over Thomas's forehead. "Thanks for holding up."
  268. [21:42] * Johanne looked up at Yusa and down at her own clumsy cutting, then closed her eyes. "F-fine then, at least somebody here acts like a maid!"
  269. [21:43] * Thomas smiled up at Carrissa, "You bet! Uhm, I'm going to get back to my practice in the living room. My arm looks alot better!"
  270. [21:43] <Downy> "I think that should do it?"
  271. [21:43] =-= jesty|sleep is now known as Jester-
  272. [21:43] <Thomas> "Mhm, thank you again miss Downy."
  273. [21:44] <Downy> "You're welcome!"
  274. [21:44] * Thomas stood and headed down to the living room, happy as could be, sitting back down to paint.
  275. [21:44] * Yusa laughs and takes the knife and helps cut the vegetables. "Well, I think we do more than jus' maid stuff, ya know?"
  276. [21:45] <Johanne> "That's stupid. We're here to be maids, aren't we?"
  277. [21:45] * Thomas sneaks an occaisional glance at Carrissa as he paints
  278. [21:45] <Carrissa> "Thankya, Downy, you made my mind just now~" Carrissa said, standing up herself and setting a hand on the other maid's shoulder with a smile.
  279. [21:46] * Nyssa_Pritchart pops into the living room again. "Ah, Thomas? Did you say who was visiting, again?"
  280. [21:46] <Yusa> "Well we're lookin' after a kid that can't even protect 'imself. So I think we do more than jus' clean an' cook."
  281. [21:47] * Downy nodded. "We should get back to work."
  282. [21:49] <Downy> "What were we supposed to do again?" Gave Carrissa a blank, lost, stare.
  283. [21:49] * Thomas looks up at Nyssa, "A-I'm having a girl over..." he blushed
  284. [21:49] * Downy tries to ignore the hidden meaning of Carrisa's commen.
  285. [21:49] <Downy> If there is any to begin with. ._.
  286. [21:49] * Johanne sighed, dropping her guard. "Yes... I suppose... But, he's so precious! I mean, look at him! I'd spoil him too quickly if I did anything other than taking care of him~" She looked at Yusa briefly, then quickly back to the cutting board. What did she just say?!
  287. [21:49] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oh, a girl? a very friendly girl, is she~?" Nyssa slightly teases.
  288. [21:50] <Carrissa> "Hmm~" Carrissa hummed in agreement with Downy.
  289. [21:50] <Carrissa> "Was the laundry ever done?"
  290. [21:50] * Thomas blushes as he paints, "S-She's friendly yes, I've been too embarassed to invite her over with my house being such a mess..."
  291. [21:51] * Downy shrugged. "Wanna go and check?"
  292. [21:52] * Yusa chuckles. "Well mos' people do that with children. It's normal" she finishes cutting the veggies. "What are we makin anyway?"

  311. [22:02] * Nyssa_Pritchart bows in respect, then pulls out several trays with lunch on it. "Ah...wait?"
  312. [22:03] <Thomas> "Gah!" Thomas runs for the door and tries to yank it open, "W-Why is the door stuck?! Are those nails?"

  314. [22:04] <Thomas> "Someone help me open the door!"
  315. [22:04] * Carrissa made her way over to the laundry, at least Boyo'd gathered it together~ She rolls up her sleeves and sets to work with a subtle grace.
  316. [22:05] * Downy separated the whites and colors into two baskets.
  317. [22:06] * Johanne watches the pot, but otherwise doesn't do much. The silence between Yusa and herself is a bit awkward...
  318. [22:06] * Downy decided to clean the whites, scrubbing the first piece with water and a bit of soap.
  319. [22:07] * Thomas looks around, tugging frantically on the door
  320. [22:07] * Nyssa_Pritchart finally appears near Thomas.

  326. [22:08] * Thomas backed off, trying to compose himself
  327. [22:08] * Carrissa takes the pile of colors, starting with a nice red cloth~
  328. [22:08] * Nyssa_Pritchart rolls up a sleeve and rips the door open quite easily.
  329. [22:11] <Thomas> An amiable young girl in a red dress with long, straight yellow hair curtsied at the front door "Good day." Thomas bowed, blushing. "G-Good day! Lunch is ready if you're hungry!" "That sounds lovely~" she smiled
  330. [22:11] * Downy sighed in exhaustion. "This is pretty tough when there are this many clothes to clean."
  331. [22:12] * Johanne stirred the soup a bit.
  332. [22:12] <Thomas> Thomas's eyes looked lit-up as he guided the girl out towards the back, he tried to sound in charge, "Miss Nyssa, please have the maids bring out lunch to the garden in the backyard."
  333. [22:13] <Carrissa> "Mhmm, I wonder how long it's been since Boyo's had someone take care of this?"
  334. [22:13] * Carrissa thinks most of it should be done by now, so she arranges the laundry lines to properly hang them all, doing so as well.
  335. [22:13] * Downy heavily sighed from that thought. "I dunno. But we're almost done."
  336. [22:13] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Uhm...I don't mean to sound weird, master, but...I found the lunch. In my robes. And it's already laid out in the back area, with a table I found."
  337. [22:14] <Thomas> "O-Oh!" he blinked, then tried to look composed, "Yes of course, thank you miss Nyssa. L-Let's go, shall we?" the girl nodded with a smile and they continued outside
  338. [22:17] <Downy> "Ahhh... Finally done."
  339. [22:17] * Nyssa_Pritchart smiles as she lets the two go outside.
  340. [22:17] * Thomas sat in the garden with his mysterious date and ate lunch
  341. [22:17] * Downy traveled over to Carrisa to help her hang the rest of the clothing.
  342. [22:18] * Johanne walked into the lobby, looking extremely confused. "Yusa... where did you go with the food?"
  343. [22:18] <Johanne> "I couldn't have looked away for more than a second, and yet the both of them were gone! Pot and all..." She muttered to herself, surprised even the dining room was empty.
  344. [22:20] =-= Naya is now known as Maya
  345. [22:20] <Maya> Walking over to the white mansion by the cobbled path, a girl with a parasol walked. Her cat ears flickering lightly and her tail straight down as if hiding from the sun she takes out a small piece of paper and checks for the directions inscribed on them. "F-father said this was the place..." Maya muttered, looking at the abandonned looking building.
  346. [22:20] <Thomas> That person hiding from the bushes is back, will nyssa notice her?
  347. [22:21] <Carrissa> "Yeah, it looks nice~ My arms are a little tired, though," she mentioned, turning back into the mansion, looking for Thomas.
  348. [22:21] * Nyssa_Pritchart does so, and she frowns a little.
  349. [22:21] <Downy> "No kidding... My arms feel so heavy now. Then again, that's probably due to the armor."
  350. [22:22] <Thomas> Nyssa spies a young girl hiding in the bushes with short-blond hair in a wrinkled grey dress, staring at the master and his date. She looks mad!
  351. [22:23] <Carrissa> "Yeah, it could've been better to shed some of it now and again? Ah, it's the other armored missy! Missy! Have you seen Boyo?"
  352. [22:23] * Carrissa waves a question at Johanne
  353. [22:23] * Maya walks over to the front door and knocks gently, "Hello? May I speak to the proprietor of this mansion?" she called out, hoping someone would open the door and get her out of the sun.
  354. [22:24] <Johanne> "A-armored...?" She grabs her uniform quickly, then realizes what she was doing and dropped her arms at her side! "No! I haven't... Why?"
  355. [22:24] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "..." Nyssa COULD totally pull out her M4 and threaten her with her bayonet, but she decides to play along.
  356. [22:25] <Thomas> The girl looks up and spots Nyssa, she freezes in sheer terror! She's been spotted!
  357. [22:25] * Johanne looks at the door, and... ignores it.
  358. [22:26] <Carrissa> "We did the laundry~ And were wondering what next there was to do."
  359. [22:26] * Downy giggled from Johanne's reaction. "Yeah!"
  360. [22:26] <Downy> "Was that a knock just now?"
  361. [22:27] <Johanne> "Yes." She stated bluntly.
  362. [22:27] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "...ahem. Mind telling me what you're doing?"
  363. [22:27] <Downy> "Don't you think we ought to open it and greet whoever it could be?"
  364. [22:28] * Maya stops knocking after a moment, assuming no one was inside. "Perhaps I should go around the back..." Maya wondered, tilting her head lightly and starting to move away from the door.
  365. [22:28] <Thomas> The girl shrinks, obscuring yourself in the bushes, "I-I...I was just...Watching over Thomas.."
  366. [22:28] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Watching OVER Thomas? Care to explain?"
  367. [22:28] <Carrissa> "Ah, was it now? That door doesn't work, though. Anymore," she added, touching Downy's arm with the comment.
  368. [22:28] <Johanne> "Well, I'll look for the master if you're so busy with the door!"
  369. [22:29] * Johanne turns about suddenly and stomps off.
  370. [22:29] * Downy shrugged. "The price of security will always be freedom."
  371. [22:29] <Thomas> "Well...I...Have a crush on Thomas." she wrung her hands, "And I want to tell him! B-But he's head over heels for that dreadful girl over there!"
  372. [22:30] <Carrissa> "Coming~" she yelled through the door. "...Nah, I can't do this myself. Shall we, Downy?"
  373. [22:30] * Carrissa positions herself near the door.
  374. [22:30] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Hm...and you are?"
  375. [22:31] <Thomas> "Delilah..." the girl mutters sullenly, "I live at the old house to the east."
  376. [22:31] * Downy nodded. "Yeah... I guess you might need some help opening it."
  377. [22:31] * Maya walks over to the side of the house and decides to summon out a bat...but then she suddenly hears voices from behind the door. She decides to walk back and investigate, she stands in front of the door and knocks again. "Hello?"
  378. [22:32] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Well, Delilah...would you like me to tell the master how you feel about him?"
  379. [22:32] <Thomas> "D-Don't! It's not the right time yet! Not while he still like...her..."
  380. [22:32] <Thomas> the girl growls softly
  381. [22:33] * Nyssa_Pritchart rolls her eyes. "OK, fine, whatever. I won't. But it's not nice to sneak into someones' place like this."
  382. [22:33] * Johanne muttered as soon as she was out of view. "Stupid... not even knowing the master's location..."
  383. [22:33] * Carrissa pulls at the door, though she's a little tired from the laundry. It occured to her that Johanne was cute while she tugged at it. Hee hee.
  384. [22:33] * Downy echoed. "Hello?"
  385. [22:34] * Downy knocked on the door and it suddenly swung open.
  386. [22:34] <Thomas> "I understand..." Delilah sighs and sinks back into the bushes. Thomas and his date seem to have finished lunch
  387. [22:34] <Maya> "Umm, could you perhaps open the door? I'd like to ta---ah." Maya lookede relieved when the door opened.
  388. [22:35] <Thomas> "Miss Nyssa, could you take the dishes inside?" Thomas called
  389. [22:36] * Nyssa_Pritchart shrugs. Guess she'll tell Thomas about Delilah later. "Of course, master!"
  390. [22:36] * Carrissa stepped out from behind the door with a "Hey~ Are you Boyo's guest?"
  391. [22:36] * Downy shrugged. "So much for securing the door."
  392. [22:36] * Maya looked to be around 10 years old with vermillion colored hair, eyes and very pale skin, she also seemed to have cat ears and a tail strangely enough. She lifted up the parasol lightly to look up at Carrissa. "Guest? I did not realize I was expected..."
  393. [22:38] <Thomas> Thomas seemed to be sketching his date into a small book as the girl sat serenly, watching the birds in the fountain.
  394. [22:38] <Downy> "If you're not our guest, then who is?"
  395. [22:39] * Johanne , after looking out the window, noticed the master with his date. What she didn't notice was that he was actually enjoying it as she walked out to interrupt and speak with him. "There are a couple maids who are unaware of what to do next."
  396. [22:40] * Maya looked from Carrissa to Johanne, not understanding exactly what they meant. "Um, I'm here about the maid ad? My dear father requested I apply."
  397. [22:41] <Thomas> "W-What?" Thomas looks behind him, "Oh, uhm...Yes [dinner] would be nice, and please [dust the study] miss Johanne." the girl looked up at Johanne with a smile, she hasn't said much since she got here...
  398. [22:42] * Nyssa_Pritchart is in the kitchen as she managed to somehow get all of the dishes from the back yard into the sink.
  399. [22:42] <Carrissa> "Ho? Here for the ad? Then come in, little miss~"
  400. [22:43] <Johanne> "Err, uhh... yes." She looks away from the girl after they meet eyes and also walks back to the living room.
  401. [22:44] <Thomas> Thomas looks to her, "S-Sorry! Uhm..I'm almost done.." she nodded slowly, looking off to the fountain again, "That's quite alright, Thomas..."
  402. [22:44] * Downy smiled at the newcomer. "I'm happy that we have another."
  403. [22:45] * Maya steps inside and closes her parasol, putting it aside by the door. "Is there anything I should...do?" Maya asked a bit perplexed, she had no idea how to be a maid. "I am pleased to meet you." Maya curtsied politely to Downy.
  404. [22:45] * Johanne walked by the trio on her way to the living room and mentioned a, "dinner," as she headed to the study. Her duster was now in hand...
  405. [22:46] * Carrissa beckoned her in, reaching out to feel her ears and set her hand on top of the girl's head, completely ignoring any sense of personal space. "It's good to meet you, too~" She turned to Downy and back. "It's getting a bit into the day... Maybe we could make a fire for the boyo?" Carrissa's eyes glinted.
  406. [22:47] <Maya> "A fire...how would I do that?" Maya asked, unbothered by Carrissa's proximity, normally the servants back at the castle would take care of it. She was willing to learn however.
  407. [22:48] * Thomas headed inside with his guest, crossing through the living room he noticed Maya, "Oh! Uhm...Have you come for one of the maid positions here?"
  408. [22:48] * Downy nodded. "Sure thing!'
  409. [22:50] <Carrissa> "Well,firstly, we need things to burn," she commented, before turning about. "Boyo! Who's this lovely lady here? The guest arrived as we stepped away?"
  410. [22:50] <Maya> "I have. It is a pleasure to meet you, are you perhaps the son of the master here?" Maya asked, politely perfoming a curtsie for Thomas as well. "My name is Maya."
  411. [22:51] * Johanne dusts the study with her own obsessive attention to detail as usual...
  412. [22:51] <Downy> Points toward herself. "My name is Downy."
  413. [22:52] * Nyssa_Pritchart finishes scrubbing all the dishes clean.
  414. [22:52] <Thomas> "I am the master now." he nodded, "My name is Thomas, miss Maya. I-I was just escorting my guest to the door if you don't mind, I'll be right back."
  415. [22:53] <Downy> "You're guest?" Downy asked.
  416. [22:53] <Carrissa> "I'm Carrissa. 'Carrie' or 'Risa' are OK, too. And our lovely lady guest is~...?"
  417. [22:53] * Johanne doesn't notice anything strange somehow, despite her feverish method of dusting.
  418. [22:53] <Maya> "Ah...I apologize for being rude. Please do take your time." Maya looked a bit bothered to find out Thomas was the master, she had never seen someone so young among humans with such wealth.
  419. [22:55] <Thomas> The girl curtsies, "Bavette Alfredo. My father and Thomas's were friends." she stated simply
  420. [22:56] * Johanne lingers in the study a bit longer, deciding to check her uniform after she was done... What that girl back in the living room said... she didn't see any of her bandages, did she?
  421. [22:56] * Downy was stunned. "Bavette!?"
  422. [22:56] <Thomas> thomas's father
  423. [22:56] <Thomas> Bavette puts a hand to her cheek, "Why whatever is wrong miss?"
  424. [22:57] * Nyssa_Pritchart is rummaging through her dress again. "Hm...wonder what \else I got in here."
  425. [22:58] * Downy wrapped her arms and gave Bavette a stern stare. "Am I really that forgettable, Lady Alfredo?"
  426. [22:59] <Carrissa> "Oh? It's good to know Boyo's got such a girl to walk to a door." Carrissa offered her hand to shake, though it probably wasn't proper ettiquette.
  427. [22:59] * Maya takes a look around as the maids discussed, this was quite different than what she was used to, it was more...homely.
  428. [23:00] <Thomas> Bavette shakes Carrissa's hand tentatively before looking back to Downy, "I...Oh! Oh, yes! Please forgive me miss Downy! I'll have to tell my mother I saw you, she'll be happy to hear you are doing well." she curtsied, "I am sure you will serve Thomas well."
  429. [23:02] * Downy bowed her head. "Of course! Lady Alfredo. And thank you!"
  430. [23:02] * Carrissa smiled and stepped back at the unfolding event, and set her hand back on little Maya's head.
  431. [23:03] <Thomas> Bavette smiled, "Of course, to think I'd see you again! Well, I really must be going!" Thomas nodded, following her to the door, on the way out Bavette elbowed Maya. Was it an accident?
  432. [23:04] <Downy> "I'm pleased to see you again, take care!"
  433. [23:04] * Maya wondered if it was customary to touch a child's head amongst humans? Her servants certainly made themselves scarced when she moved around. "Miss...Carrissa was it? May I ask you to show me to the fireplace?"
  434. [23:06] <Thomas> "Ta ta~" Bavette cooed, still eyeing Maya. "Do come again soon!" Thomas smiled, "Of course Thomas." the girl leaned up and kissed Thomas's cheek before walking outside where a horse-drawn carriage awaited her. Thomas seemed totally dumbstruck, this must have been the first time it happened.
  435. [23:06] <Carrissa> "Ohoho~? Do stop by again, Bavette!"
  436. [23:07] * Maya felts a sharp pain for a moment but kept it to herself, it had more than likely been an accident right?
  437. [23:07] * Carrissa looked to Maya. "Hmm? It was right this way, right this way," she said absentmindedly as she took her hand off and stepped slowly enough to be calmly followed.
  438. [23:07] * Nyssa_Pritchart walks upsatirs.
  439. [23:07] * Thomas stumbled his way over to the living room and sat down blushing, a hand on his cheek
  440. [23:08] * Downy walked to Thomas. "So she was your guest?"
  441. [23:08] <Thomas> "Y-Yes, my guest..." he nodded dreamily
  442. [23:09] * Downy giggled. "How did you met her?"
  443. [23:10] <Thomas> "My father told her father I had gotten very good at painting...When he came to pay a visit one day he introduced me to Bavette and asked me to paint her..." he blushed looking at a blank canvas, "I...I really like her." he seemed to clam up, embarrased
  444. [23:10] * Maya followed Carrissa, rubbing her sides gently. "Miss Carrissa that...Bavette, struck me. Is that normal?" Maya had to ask, she didn't like the idea of receiving an elbow to her side everytime she met someone new amongst humans. She much prefered having her ears played with.
  445. [23:12] * Nyssa_Pritchart appears at the living room again. "My, my, this place is so busy."
  446. [23:12] <Carrissa> "Hmm, wood, wood, spare wood?" Carrissa asked herself out loud when she got to the fireplace. She turned back and knelt on one knee at the question.
  447. [23:13] <Downy> "She's awfully kind. Do try to get on her mother's good side though."
  448. [23:14] <Thomas> "I haven't met her yet...I-Is she terribly strict?"
  449. [23:14] * Johanne opens the door out of the study after firmly making sure her uniform was in order and her head wrappings were tight. She noticed the three others, but made no motion to speak with them...
  450. [23:15] * Downy shooker her head. "No. Just a little over-protected."
  451. [23:16] * Maya twitched her ears lightly, focusing her red eyes on Carrissa.
  452. [23:16] <Thomas> "I see...I-I'll try my best." he nodded
  453. [23:19] * Carrissa put a hand on Maya's shoulder. "Hmm? No, that's not normal, but it happens sometimes. You don't have to worry much~ And if it happens again, come on and find me, and I'll fix you up!" She smiled and drew her fingers across the side of the girls face in a circle for a moment before getting up and ruffling her hair a bit. "Now let's get a fire started! There's wood just over there~"
  454. [23:20] <--| Downy has left #MAIDRP
  455. [23:20] * Nyssa_Pritchart appears near Maya and Carrissa. "Oh, hey."
  456. [23:21] * Johanne snorted at the display! Then walked out, noticing the low supply.
  457. [23:22] * Thomas sat in an armchair that admittedly looked a little big for him, watching the maids around him and sketching idly in a book.
  458. [23:22] * Maya nods gently, "Alright..." Carrissa seemed to know what she was talking about so Maya decided not to give it much thought for now.
  459. [23:24] <Carrissa> "Ah, you're Nyssa~ Care to help us start a..." Carrissa's eyes glinted. "Fire?"
  460. [23:25] * Johanne headed out into the woods with an axe... Decidedly ready to chop! She holds it up high over her head, and...! Wait, where did the axe go?!
  461. [23:26] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oh, sure thing. One moment..." Nyssa begins to pull out various items from her dress - somestarter fluid, a match, and evensome rubbing sticks.
  462. [23:26] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Uhm... will this help?"
  463. [23:27] <Thomas> The axe goes flying through the window! It's going to hit Thomas!
  464. [23:31] * Johanne turns in horror as she hears the smashing sound! Oh gods, it's even going for...! She winced and shut her eyes closed.
  465. [23:31] * Carrissa beams like a child given candy. "Yes, yes it wi--Pardon." Carrissa jumped up and grabbed the match from Nyssa's hands, striking it with her left hand and hurls it across the path of the axe, where it bursts into a fireball and slams the axe into the wall in a burst of scattering flame that goes out before it sets things on fire.
  466. [23:32] * Maya covers her ears upon hearing a violent break of glass.
  467. [23:32] * Nyssa_Pritchart is still holding the match book, still blinking in confusion.
  468. [23:33] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "That was pretty cool, actually."
  469. [23:33] * Thomas looks over to the charred, splintered axe in the wall. "Hmm?"
  470. [23:33] <Carrissa> "Hah, that could've been dangerous! Is anyone hurt? Boyo?" Carrissa acts nonchalantly in the face of potential employer death.
  471. [23:33] * Thomas looks to the broken glass. "Ohh! Goodness! Thank you miss Carrissa!"
  472. [23:34] * Maya didn't see a thing of course. She looks around, "Huh? W-what happened?"
  473. [23:34] * Johanne walked up to the broken window...
  474. [23:35] <Thomas> "Could someone clean this up...?" he asked to no one in particular
  475. [23:35] * Carrissa takes Nyssa's hand and strokes her forearm once as she passes her to go to Tom. "Thanks a lot, Nyssa! You saved Boyo, you know. Hey, Boyo, you okay!"
  476. [23:36] <Thomas> "I-I'm ok, miss Carrissa!"
  477. [23:37] -->| Downy (admin@sux-6D1E1F97.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net) has joined #MAIDRP
  478. [23:38] <Thomas> "Has someone started on dinner..?"
  479. [23:39] * Maya hears Thomas and looks over to the broken shards of glass on the floor, stepping over to them cautiously she tries picking a few up and placing them on a piece of newspaper.
  480. [23:39] * Nyssa_Pritchart smiles. "Ooh, I can help with that."
  481. [23:40] * Johanne looks in through the window, then freezes up as she sees Thomas and Carrissa!
  482. [23:40] * Thomas looks over and waves, "Hi, miss Johanne!"
  483. [23:40] * Nyssa_Pritchart walks into the kitchen and begins cooking up a storm.
  484. [23:40] * Maya successfully manages to clean up the shards of glass with her hands without even cutting herself. Had she known any better she would have realized that it was a rather dangerous manner for cleaning but...
  485. [23:40] <Carrissa> "Hah, that's good! Glad of it. Let's get this fire started already~" Carrisa said as she walked over to the window, trying not to step on broken glass. "Ah, Maya, watch out, that's sharp." "Missy, you're ...Jo-hmmthing? Here, hand me a log~"
  486. [23:41] * Johanne stares at Thomas, then nods blankly to Carrissa as she takes a long and passes it through the window.
  487. [23:42] * Thomas smiles at Johanne, returning to his sketch
  488. [23:43] <Maya> "I'm fine but thank you for the warning." Maya nodded, she would have to remember not to use her hands for picking up glass in the future, she stood back up leaving the newspaper with glass shards on it on a counter while she walked back over to the fireplace to do what she had set out to do.
  489. [23:43] * Nyssa_Pritchart is making dinner, but she can't quite get the hang of it as something catches on fire in the kitchen.
  490. [23:44] -->| Daichi (garizard@8B12D52F.8F04BA5E.51B045F.IP) has joined #MAIDRP
  491. [23:45] <Carrissa> "Ho, thankya." Carrissa smiled gratefully and Johanne and hefted it over to the fireplace. It'll burn fine in one piece. "Well, let's see then..."
  492. [23:45] |<-- Thomas has left irc.thisisnotatrueending.com (Ping timeout)
  493. [23:45] * Johanne walks back around to reenter the mansion, mortified and horrified.
  494. [23:45] =-= Daichi is now known as Thomas
  495. [23:46] <Thomas> Thomas could smell smoke...But that was the fire of course! "What's wrong, miss Johanne?"
  496. [23:48] * Johanne gives Thomas one of her most incredulous looks. "I almost killled you."
  497. [23:48] * Thomas tilts his head, "You did?"
  498. [23:49] * Johanne shuffles her feet. "Yes. I threw that axe."
  499. [23:50] * Maya is not quite sure what to do to get a fire going...so she turns to Carrissa to give her an idea what to do.
  500. [23:51] -->| Daichi (garizard@8B12D52F.8F04BA5E.51B045F.IP) has joined #MAIDRP
  501. [23:51] <Daichi> "T-Threw it? Like on purpose?" Thomas finally looked concerned
  502. [23:51] |<-- Thomas has left irc.thisisnotatrueending.com (Ping timeout)
  503. [23:51] =-= Daichi is now known as Thomas
  504. [23:51] * Johanne blanched. "N-no! It was an accident!"
  505. [23:52] * Nyssa_Pritchart peeks her head out of the kitchen. "Uhm....uhm....I think dinner is ready...?"
  506. [23:52] * Thomas smiled, "Well that's ok then! Miss Carrissa saved me in the nick of time!" Thomas hopped up, ready for dinner. "Having maids is great!"
  507. [23:53] * Carrissa takes a match from her pocket and pulls it between her fingers. ...Huh? She tries again. No spark. She takes out the matchbook and uses the lighting paper, still to no avail? She hands Maya the match on impulse.
  508. [23:53] * Johanne huffed, though her brow still showed her worry. "Yes, they're great..."
  509. [23:53] <Carrissa> [impulse, since she'd commented on how to help.]
  510. [23:54] <Thomas> "You'll sit next to me, won't you Johanne?" Thomas smiled heading for the dinning room
  511. [23:54] * Maya tilts her head lightly and stares at the match with her large red eyes in curiosity. She takes it and nods a small thank you to Carrissa and tried to light the match herself, a spark comes out after a few ill fated attempts. Maya looks on in wonder, "Oh...so this is how you make fire?" she asked, still holding the match.
  512. [23:55] <Johanne> "Of... Of course not!" She fumed, but walked with Thomas to sit next to him anyway.
  513. [23:56] * Nyssa_Pritchart smiles. "Ah, I hope this is to your liking."
  514. [23:56] <Carrissa> "Yeah! You got the hang of it, nice job! Thankya! Now hold it still there...okay, toss it in~!"
  515. [23:56] * Thomas looked concerned, but was glad to see she sat next to him. "What's for dinner?"
  516. [23:57] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Uhm...slightly burnt salmon."
  517. [23:58] <Thomas> "Mmmm~ sounds good!"
  518. [23:58] * Thomas dug in once he was served, "I'm pretty hungry. Isn't everyone going to sit around the table though?"
  519. [23:58] <Johanne> "Salmon..." She wretched.
  520. [23:58] * Maya follows Carrissa's instruction before she burnt herself, "Ah...so this is how humans do it...I always assumed you could simply use magic." Maya took another match and eyed it, "I do not see any spell circles however."
  521. [23:59] <Johanne> "Oh, they looked like they were lighting the fire."
  522. [23:59] * Johanne poked at her plate in distaste.
  523. [23:59] <Thomas> "You don't like salmon, Johanne?" Thomas chewed at his happily
  524. [00:00] * Carrissa throws her hand out at the fireplace in time with Maya's toss and a gout of flame consumes the log, igniting it well enough to keep burning! She giggles seductively in glee and drops to grab Maya into her breasts with a smile, taking the girl's hand up and putting a singed finger into her mouth to sooth it a little. "Let's go to the kitchen and get this cooled off, Maya~."
  525. [00:00] * Nyssa_Pritchart is happily serving everyone.
  526. [00:01] <Johanne> "I hate it." She replies flatly as she pushes her plate away. She'd rather go hungry~
  527. [00:01] * Carrissa revealed her matchbook between her fingers, with a seven-pointed star pattern etched on it.
  528. [00:01] * Maya tilted her head lightly, confused by this new interaction. It felt somewhat familiar however to have her face buried in Carrissa's chest. "Ah, please show me the way then Miss Carrissa."
  529. [00:01] <Thomas> "O-Oh! Uhm, you're welcome to use the kitchen if you're hungry.." Thomas finished up dinner
  530. [00:04] <Carrissa> "Right this way, c'mon," Carrissa said, pulling the girl along slightly, taking her to the sink to run cold water over it as she wrapped some ice in a cloth. "Hold this over it for now."
  531. [00:04] <Johanne> "No, that's alright. There is still more to take care of."
  532. [00:05] <Carrissa> "If you like fire, I'll show you about it later! But you have to be careful, right? It's really pretty, but pretty dangerous. Let's eat now, we're late to the table~"
  533. [00:05] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Was it to your liking, master?"
  534. [00:06] <Thomas> "Well ok..." Thomas sat around the table, though he was finished he thought he'd wait for the other anyway. "Uhm..Would you make some dessert then miss Johanne? If it's not too much trouble..."
  535. [00:07] <Johanne> "Ah... Yes, of course." She stood up, then pushed her chair back in before walking to the kitchen.
  536. [00:07] * Maya nodded and obeyed Carrissa's suggestion. To be honest it didn't hurt her all that much..."I think I would like to learn about other things maids do around the house, this is interesting." Maya replied with a curious look on her face. "Eat? Oh, then let's." Maya curtsied with on hand and waited for Carrissa to show her the way.
  537. [00:08] <--| Downy has left #MAIDRP
  538. [00:09] * Carrissa smiled over her shoulder and walked into the dining room, passing Johanne with a "Thankya for the help earlier," Taking a seat at the table and showing Maya to take whichever open one she liked.
  539. [00:10] <Thomas> "Hello miss Carrissa, hello miss Maya." he nodded politely
  540. [00:10] * Maya took a random seat at the dinner table and patted her skirt out of the way as she sat in a very elegant manner. She took a look at the salmon and looked rather interested by the present meal, "Ah..." she tried not to drool but her feline tastes seemed to be hard to resist.
  541. [00:10] * Johanne grunted-charmingly- at Carrissa's remark. She grabbed onto an apron and started to work...
  542. [00:11] <Maya> "H-hello master..." Maya was ashamed to admit it, but she had forgotten his name. Her memory never had been very good..."Thomas." she added after a small pause, remembering hearing a few of the maids toss the only male name around.
  543. [00:11] <Carrissa> "I'm sorry for holding dinner up, Boyo, I guess I burnt myself out with the first one. Ah, fish?"
  544. [00:13] * Thomas smiled to Maya, "It's...Nice to meet you! So you saw the ad I put in the paper?"
  545. [00:14] <Maya> "Actually, my dear father saw the ad and had one of our maids relay the message to me. So I came." Maya replied, trying to retain her poise and elegant demeanor while eating the fish slowly with a fork and knife.
  546. [00:15] <Thomas> "Y-You have your own maids...?" Thomas was a little confused,
  547. [00:16] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Hm..."
  548. [00:17] * Maya nodded in response while she chewed, not wanting to talk with her mouth full.
  549. [00:20] * Thomas waited for dessert, for such a young girl to be a maid...And have her own maids? Why was she...? It was rude to ask too much of course. "I see." Thomas mused, looking out the window, it was starting to get dark.
  550. [00:22] * Johanne reappeared walking out of the kitchen with a few servings of freshly baked biscotti. "Dessert, for when you are done..."
  551. [00:22] * Maya finished her meal without causing much of a fuss. The training had paid off. "So...master thomas, may I ask how you obtained such wealth?" Maya as well was rather curious as to how someone so young had such a big mansion.
  552. [00:23] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Oooh...that looks delicious..."
  553. [00:25] <Thomas> "Thank you miss Johanne!" Thomas dug in before looking over to Maya, "My father. He earned his wealth as a banker. And became a well known sculpter after an early retirement. After...Mother died he got life insurance for himself. A few years later, father died as well...The maids and butler left then. I-I've been trying to tend to the mansion myself, but it leaves me no time to paint...And father...Was always very proud of me for my paintings,
  554. [00:26] <Johanne> "Hmph!" She set the tray on the table without any care and took her own sesat back at the table.
  555. [00:26] * Carrissa stretched a little when she finished. "Oho, what's this? I'll take some, I'll take some~ Thankya, Jo!" Carrissa waved at her.
  556. [00:27] * Nyssa_Pritchart smiles at Thomas.
  557. [00:28] * Thomas looks back to Nyssa, he wasn't smiling. But he did once she saw hers.
  558. [00:28] * Maya nods politely to Johanne and takes a serving of desert as well, "Thanks you miss Johanne...oh so you inherited. I'm sorry to hear about your losses, I know I'd be rather sad if I lost my father..." Maya's ears flattened lightly, eating slowly.
  559. [00:28] <Thomas> he*
  560. [00:28] <Thomas> "M-May I ask how you came to be a maid? You sound just as well off as I am, and with a family and all..."
  561. [00:29] <Johanne> "It's not like I did this with you in mind." She frowned and nibbled at her own portion.
  562. [00:29] <Thomas> "That's ok! I wouldn't want to distract you." he smiled at Johanne, "It's really delicious, miss Johanne!"
  563. [00:30] <Johanne> "I don't care..." The way she trailed off, and the blush~
  564. [00:31] * Nyssa_Pritchart is enjoying her dessert as well. "Aw...how cute!"
  565. [00:31] <Maya> "I must admit that I will not stay for very long." Maya replied, "My father asked me to learn how to be a maid so I obeyed. It all is rather fascinating though...human society is quite a bit different than what I expected..." Maya replied softly.
  566. [00:31] <Thomas> "Cute...?" Thomas finished his biscotti, wiping crumbs off his face.
  567. [00:32] * Thomas looked to Maya again, "I-I see, that's too bad...Uhm, why do you say 'human' society?"
  568. [00:34] <Carrissa> "I agree, Nyssa! She really is~"
  569. [00:34] <Nyssa_Pritchart> "Yeah...her face..." Nyssa smiles.
  570. [00:34] <Maya> "Oh, you cannot tell? That must make things interesting...I am a vampire." Maya stated as if she were telling someone the time. "Vampire society is a bit different...well, from what little I ever saw."
  571. [00:35] <Thomas> "Oh, ok." Thomas nodded, "I can't say I've met a vampire before. That I know of..."
  572. [00:36] * Maya finishes her biscotti and also gently pats her lips with a napkin.
  573. [00:36] <Maya> "I've never met any humans before either."
  574. [00:36] <Thomas> "Are we so different?" Thomas wondered aloud
  575. [00:37] <Maya> "Hmm...I do not know..." Maya replied, unsure herself. "Oh! I hear you may walk in the sun freely. That must be nice..."
  576. [00:37] <Johanne> "Overrated."
  577. [00:38] <Carrissa> "The sun! A giant burning ball of flame, hanging in the sky~" Carrissa sighed romantically.
  578. [00:38] <Thomas> "Uh huh! It is." Thomas smiled, "Uhm, so, if you all would go upstairs and pick out your rooms? I needed some time to think...I was going to pick a head maid." he nodded
  579. [00:39] * Maya seems to be getting varied responses, "O-oh, well part of me wishes I could simply lie in the sun." Maya remarked, her tail swishing lightly. She got up from her seat, "Rooms? Oh, alright."
  580. [00:39] =-= Nyssa_Pritchart is now known as Nyssa
  581. [00:40] * Nyssa is going to retire upstairs for now. "Hm...who wants to share a room with me?"
  582. [00:41] <Thomas> "O-Oh wait, I forgot! Uhm, I had cleared out the room next to me for the head maid, so I guess I should pick now..."
  583. [00:41] <Johanne> "Sharing rooms...?" She thought of the idea-absolutely not! "N-not a chance!"
  584. [00:43] <Maya> "Sharing rooms?" Maya seemed intrigued, she had never slept in the same room as someone else before.
  585. [00:43] <Thomas> "I...I have to admit, I've narrowed it down to Carrissa or Johanne...Uhm, should I ask if either of you were even interested?"
  586. [00:43] <Carrissa> "A problem, Jo?" Carrissa finishes her biscuit and seductively--unconsciously so--licks her lips of crumbs.
  587. [00:44] * Johanne watches Carrissa more intently than many times previously... She snapped out of it, however. "Yes, a problem!"
  588. [00:44] <Carrissa> "Hmm, I'm up for anything, Boyo, this much pay is enough for me, and I won't refuse, either."
  589. [00:46] <Thomas> "Uhm, what about you Johanne?"
  590. [00:46] <Johanne> "I'm a maid. That's enough for me..."
  591. [00:46] <Nyssa> "Uhm..." Nyssa isn't sure who she wants to share with, but she's fine with anyone."
  592. [00:48] <Thomas> "A-Alright. Miss Carrissa, you're the head maid!" he nodded, fishing a badge out of his pocket, "You can wear this." he nodded, "You'll be in the room to the right of mine."
  593. [00:51] <Carrissa> "Actually, Boyo, got a question, can Jo have the room? She's been avoiding us a while, so it's better to let a flame heat up and grow before you press on it, right?"
  594. [00:52] <Johanne> "...?" Johanne looked confused as she watched Carrissa and Thomas.
  595. [00:53] <Thomas> "O-Ok. Sorry to be so indecisive, miss Johanne. You'll get your own room if you're a head maid!" he tried to assuage the blunder
  596. [00:53] <Nyssa> "...Uhmm..."
  597. [00:53] * Johanne suddenly looked fiercely determined. "I'll take it."
  598. [00:54] * Thomas blinks, "G-Great! Uhm, everyone feel free to go pick out their rooms now."
  599. [00:54] * Thomas slides the badge to Johanne
  600. [00:56] * Johanne takes the badge, smiling just slightly as she pins it onto her chest. "...Thank you." She blushes, then walks to the lobby to see her room.
  601. [00:56] * Nyssa is going to pick a room at random. Who ever walks in is going to be sharing it with her.
  602. [00:56] * Thomas starts heading upstairs as well with the others
  603. [00:56] * Maya heads upstairs too to look around.
  604. [00:57] * Thomas covers up his head, shuddering a bit, "O-Oww!"
  605. [00:57] <Thomas> It was the first time Thomas seemed to actually react to anything that looked painful
  606. [00:57] * Carrissa heads on with the rest, making sure to send a visible smile at Johanne.
  607. [00:57] <Carrissa> "Oi, Boyo?"
  608. [00:58] * Johanne gives Carrissa an indecipherable stare, but turns out of concern at the master.
  609. [00:58] * Thomas crouches on the stairs, "M-My head..." Thomas's hair grew out a bit, and something seemed to protrude from the top of his head.
  610. [00:59] * Nyssa peeks out of her room. "Hm?"
  611. [00:59] <Maya> "Umm...I didn't realize there would be werebeasts here..." Maya muttered, taking a step back.
  612. [00:59] * Carrissa stepped up right next to him and put a hand on his shoulder. "Boyo, 'swrong?"
  613. [01:00] * Thomas stand up suddenly, patting at his rear end as a bushy tail appeared. With his hands removed, the wolf ears on his head were obvious, "Oh no!
  614. [01:00] * Johanne stares on, confused. "Is he...?"
  615. [01:01] * Johanne suddenly remembers back to the wolfman fight. "That's right, the bite!"
  616. [01:01] <Nyssa> "Uh oh."
  617. [01:01] <Maya> "Is he still...sane?" Maya asked, she had read that transformations had the tendency to rob people of their reason.
  618. [01:01] <Carrissa> "The bite? Aaahh, this'll be trouble..."
  619. [01:03] * Thomas blushes, his tail whipping about. It seems since his body resisted the change long enough, the effects weren't so drastic. He covers up his ears again, "W-What if Bavette finds out!?"
  620. [01:04] <Johanne> "..."
  621. [01:04] <Nyssa> "Uhmmm...uhm...we'lll just find a cure, right?"
  622. [01:05] <Maya> "It could have been much worse." Maya steps forward again and seemed relieved to see he was still mentally aware, her tail swishing.
  623. [01:05] <Thomas> "O-ok..." Thomas's whine sounded like a small dog's, "A-Ack! Ohh..." Thomas sighs, his tail tucked between his legs
  624. [01:06] * Thomas seemed entranced by Maya's tail...
  625. [01:06] <Carrissa> "That's your concern? Hmm, you're cute, too," Carrissa offered, with light worry on her face.
  626. [01:06] <Thomas> "C-Cute?" the blush returned again
  627. [01:07] <Maya> "Cute?" Maya turned, that term was foreign to her.
  628. [01:07] <Johanne> "You'll be able to live fine after all." She sighed in defeat as she pulled off her gloves, revealing two heavily-bandaged hands!
  629. [01:07] <Carrissa> "You're cute, too, Maya~"
  630. [01:08] <Maya> "I am?" Maya tilted her haid lightly and fought the urge to meow in curiosity, she turned to see what Johanne was trying to show, "Oh...you seem rather injured."
  631. [01:08] <Thomas> Thomas's ears twitch as he heads closer to Johanne, "Hmm?" he seem confused, not sure what this meant
  632. [01:09] <Johanne> "Wh-what, do I have to show you more?!"
  633. [01:09] <Nyssa> "...oh boy."
  634. [01:09] <Thomas> "I-I'm sorry! That's not what I meant! I-I was just wondering why you're...I-I'm sorry! It's very rude to ask such a thing." he bowed his head, his ears flat
  635. [01:09] * Johanne blushed in anger and started to remove some of her uniform...
  636. [01:10] <Carrissa> "Ah, Jo, how long have you been hurt over there? You were doing housework like that?"
  637. [01:10] * Thomas blushed yet more, his ear straight up and his tail wagging, 'W-what.."
  638. [01:11] * Maya watched Johanne with interest, she wondered what exactly Johanne was trying to prove by removing her clothes.
  639. [01:11] * Johanne held her arm nervously as the top half of her was exposed now. Most all of her skin was wrapped in what seemed to be very old linen...
  640. [01:13] <Thomas> "Why are you...All wrapped up miss Johanne?"
  641. [01:13] <Johanne> "I-I'm not... supposed to be alive."
  642. [01:13] <Maya> "Oh...have you gotten burnt too?" Maya asked, pointing at her finger which was also bandaged.
  643. [01:13] <Thomas> Thomas's ears twitched, "Y-You mean to say...You're un-dead?"
  644. [01:13] * Carrissa stepped in front of Thomas to preserve his eyes and Jo's dignity.
  645. [01:14] <Maya> "...un-dead? A ghoul perhaps? A zombie? A vampire as well?"
  646. [01:14] <Johanne> "Yes. Sort of... Maya..."
  647. [01:14] <Nyssa> "Hm..."
  648. [01:14] <Thomas> "W-Well, that's ok with me Johanne! I-I guess we're all different..." he nodded
  649. [01:15] <Carrissa> "...Even the reanimated can be girls, too, you shouldn't strip in front of a boy so easily, Jo~" Carrissa scolded playfully.
  650. [01:16] <Johanne> "That's not the point, you i-idiot! If I can go like this without anybody knowing, th-then you can too!" She continued to blush as she started to dress again at Carrissa's reminder.
  651. [01:16] <Maya> "Is that a problem?" Maya asked, not really quite clear on why it would be an issue.
  652. [01:16] <Maya> [Maya asked Carrissa]
  653. [01:18] <Carrissa> "Aren't other people embarrassed by that sort of thing?" she asked, not realizing she was a subversion of her own comment.
  654. [01:19] <Johanne> "Of course I'm embarrassed!"
  655. [01:20] <Maya> "You're rather pretty though. Why should you be embarrassed?" Maya asked.
  656. [01:20] <Thomas> "She is..." Thomas murmurs
  657. [01:20] * Johanne turns around and stomps off quickly before her face could get any redder!
  658. [01:21] <Carrissa> "Hey, Jo, wait up."
  659. [01:21] <Carrissa> ". . . Boyo, go after her."
  660. [01:22] * Maya looks back at Thomas and his tail, for some reason she felt a bit uneasy.
  661. [01:22] <Thomas> "Her room is next to mine anyway..." Thomas trotted after her, his tail wagging, "M-Miss Johanne! Miss Johanne!"
  662. [01:22] * Nyssa has decided to duck back into her room for now.
  663. [01:24] * Carrissa giggled and turned back to Maya. "...You're right, Maya. She is pretty~ I suppose it's something to do with a man's eyes?"
  664. [01:24] * Johanne slams the door to her room and leans against the wall beside it...
  665. [01:25] <Carrissa> "Let's go join Nyssa. I'm a little tired, hah. The others are probably more, though."
  666. [01:26] <Maya> "A man's eyes? I was under the impression that young human males were called boys...you called him something like that as well, right?" Maya seemed a bit confused, she hadn't had any chance to interact with people as young as this. Back home she was generally alone or with her teachers and when she did go out it was for social events with adult vampires everywhere...
  667. [01:26] * Nyssa is inside her room, and she's pulled out a laptop that she's browsing over.
  668. [01:26] * Maya follows behind Carrissa.
  669. [01:26] * Carrissa returns her hand to Maya's head in thought.
  670. [01:26] * Thomas scratches at the door, whining before realizing himself and standing up. "Uh, J-Johanne, I'm sorry if you were embarassed. Uhm...I'm happy that you shared that with us though! I-I mean, telling us about yourself...I'd like to get to know everyone better over time..." crouching his tail wags about on the floor
  671. [01:28] * Johanne after a couple moments of silence she slightly opens the door. "I wasn't embarrassed! Now go sleep..."
  672. [01:28] <Johanne> "Not that I care if you don't!"
  673. [01:29] <Carrissa> "N-now you're making me feel embarrassed, Maya. I probably messed up, she had the will to go and do that and I popped it."
  674. [01:30] <Thomas> "Ok...Thank you." Thomas smiles up at Johanne, his ears twitching, "I guess I'll go to bed, miss Johanne..."
  675. [01:30] <Carrissa> "It's a silly rule, I can't tell if it's supposed to be to protect the looker or the looked at."
  676. [01:31] <Johanne> "...Yeah. Go sleep."
  677. [01:31] * Johanne frowned and shut the door quickly.

  681. [01:36] * Maya thinks it over, "I assume it would be more pleasant to spend a night with someone you are on good terms with...I'd like to have you in the room with me if possible." Maya answered.
  682. [01:36] * Thomas frowned, "W-what did I do...?" Thomas pouted, slinking back to his room

  684. [01:38] <Daichi> Thomas changes into some pajamas and climbs into bed~
  685. [01:39] <Carrissa> "Okay, I'll stay with you, then." Carrissa moved her thumb about on Maya's head, smiling.
  686. [01:39] |<-- Thomas has left irc.thisisnotatrueending.com (Ping timeout)
  687. [01:39] * Johanne opens the door again after a couple minutes and waits outside in front of the master's door, fidgeting with her pajamas before attempting to open the door... Unfortunately she pulls her hand back quickly and sighs in defeat as she shuffles away back to her own room...
  688. [01:40] * Maya nods politely, "Thank you very much Miss Carrissa." she still seems a bit perplexed by the contact but it certainly beat what Bavette had done earlier.
  689. [01:45] <Carrissa> "It's our first night here, so let's..." --Jo's face and bandaged chest came to mind-- "Let's join Nyssa tonight. Otherwise she'll be sleeping alone. Here, go on ahead, tell her I'll be right in. Like this~" Carrissa knocked on the door twice, waiting a couple beats, and added "Nyssa, may we come in?"
  690. [01:49] <Carrissa> * Time passes and Carrissa shrugs. "She's asleep. We should probably let her, if she's quiet already. C'mon, let's go to the room next door." Carrissa tossed open the door and looked around. Roomy, if unkempt.
  691. [01:50] * Johanne seemed to be busy obsessively cleaning up her own room.
  692. [01:51] * Maya spotted a nearby bed and sat on it, she opens a window and some bats come flying in, holding a small suitcase. "Thank you very much." she said, putting it aside and closing the window after the bats left.
  693. [01:54] * Carrissa blinks. It's...no stranger than the reanimated or a mage, and she takes it in stride, she guesses. "You can unpack, I'll be right back, left my own case downstairs."
  694. [01:56] * Maya gives Carrissa a small nod and opens up her case, she takes out a few sets of clothes, some underwear and a book or two from the suitcase.
  695. [01:57] * Carrissa steps quietly down the steps with that, and grabs her suitcase--it wasn't an excuse, of course. She stopped at the top of the stairs, staring to her right. She takes a couple steps in and glances around at the doors, and returned to her room with a shrug and an 'Eh.' "Do you need anything more?" she asked once back in.
  696. [02:02] <Maya> "Anything more?" Maya repeated, unsure of what she was asking exactly.
  697. [02:03] <Carrissa> "Was wondering if you had any questions before you fell asleep."
  698. [02:03] <Maya> "Oh...hmmm...why are you a maid?" Maya decided to ask the first thing that came to mind.
  699. [02:04] * Daichi paws on Johanne's door, "I can't sleep..." he whines
  700. [02:05] * Johanne murmurs something intelligible as she opens the door. "Wh-why did you come to me then?"
  701. [02:06] <Carrissa> "Oh, that? I'm just down on my luck and need some money... Hmm, used to do this sort of thing when I was younger, so I figured it'd work out."
  702. [02:07] <Daichi> "I-I don't know...Uhm...Would you read me a story? O-Or something.." his ears lay flat
  703. [02:07] <Maya> "Younger? How old are you now?" Maya asked curiously.
  704. [02:07] * Johanne looks down at Thomas... "Alright, c-come in and I'll try a story. Or something."
  705. [02:08] * Johanne opens the door all the way and stands aside for the boy.
  706. [02:08] * Daichi nods, slinking inside, it looked much cleaner than before. Thomas sat on the edge of her bed, his tail swishing about, "T-Thank you miss Johanne, I'm sorry to disturb you..."
  707. [02:09] * Carrissa shrugs unconcernedly. "I passed twenty a while ago and stopped counting since. ...You said you were a vampire, so may I ask if you're older than you look?"
  708. [02:09] =-= Daichi is now known as Thomas
  709. [02:09] <Johanne> "No... I don't care..." She yawned and sat down on the bed as well, surprisingly close to the master. "Hm... A story, huh? Wh-what do you usually like...?"
  710. [02:11] <Maya> "Older than I look? Oh...well if you've only passed 20 then I suppose so...I'm currently 135." Maya stated with a smile, "I'll be 136 in a month!"
  711. [02:12] * Thomas curled up, putting his head on Johanne's leg, "Tell me a story you liked! Or...Something about witches. Father told me a lot of stories with witches. I think they're fascinating."
  712. [02:13] <Carrissa> "Wow, that long and your body's still that small? I guess it's relative, huh."
  713. [02:14] <Maya> "I suppose...I wonder what I'd look like in 100 years from now?" Maya wondered.
  714. [02:14] <Johanne> "Witches...? Witches... Yes, okay. Once, upon a time... there lived a girl who had, from birth, been able to control all sorts of happenings. Witches, like some would say... This girl was quiet, but somehow through some strange fate she met another quiet girl... They became great friends."
  715. [02:15] <Johanne> "They played happily, the witch girl changing the world about her while her friend kept her entertained. However, one day... the girl lost control of her magic!"
  716. [02:15] * Thomas nodded, interested.
  717. [02:17] <Thomas> "When witches lose control of their magic all sorts of things can happen..." he mumbled, this seem to strike a nerve
  718. [02:18] * Carrissa sat down on Maya's bed and looked her over. "Hmm. Probably a little older here...and here," she said.
  719. [02:18] * Carrissa pointed to maya's... skull and her suitcase.
  720. [02:18] * Johanne tried to make some interesting gestures to go through with it, but failed and only seemed like she was flailing spastically. "U-umm... Yes, that's true... In fact, it got so bad... All the fellow townspeople had formed a mob against her, calling her a menace, a danger!"
  721. [02:19] <Thomas> His ears lay flat, this was really getting to him! "Oh no..." he frowned
  722. [02:20] <Carrissa> "A hundred seems like a pretty long time, even if you look this small and haven't been around people much." Carrissa put her hand on Maya's head again. "So, you'll probably learn a looooot of things in a hundred years! And you'll have more stuff to carry around with you. Not all of it fits in a suitcase, though."
  723. [02:21] <Maya> "Oh...that's really interesting! I do hope father lets me go out a bit more when I stop being a maid here...perhaps I could come visit?" she wondered out loud.
  724. [02:22] <Johanne> "Her friend, fearing for the girl, confronted her on her own. She was armed with nothing but a sharpened farming tool... At this point the witch girl lost her mind. She made to struck at her friend, and the friend finally took a fatal wound. However, she managed to get close enough to the girl, and... with the final moments of her life, took the girl's as well."
  725. [02:23] * Nyssa finally walks out of her room. "Hmmm...did eveyone go to bed already?"
  726. [02:23] * Maya wonders what kinds of things she might pick up in another 100 years...the last ones felt as if they were simply a blur of books and studies.
  727. [02:23] * Johanne suddenly flushed and panicked to think of a good end. "...So, now, every time the harvest comes in we can always thank the rain!"
  728. [02:24] * Thomas was crying, burying his face in Johanne's lap, "W-Why did she kill her friend! T-They could have..." Thomas hugged Johanne's waist, sniffling
  729. [02:26] * Carrissa toyed with one of Maya's ears. "I hope so. The world's got...some bad things, but there's a lot of good things, too. They can just be hard to see sometimes."
  730. [02:27] * Johanne looked about quickly, and wondered what to do. "Because, there wasn't a place they could have ran. They're happier now, though. Playing together, somewhere. I think."
  731. [02:27] * Johanne patted Thomas' head awkwardly.
  732. [02:28] * Thomas let go, "O-Ok..." he had really bundled up, "Uhm, t-thank you for your story miss Johanne. I did like it even if it was sad..."
  733. [02:29] <Maya> "I see...you'll help me with the bad things while I'm here won't you?" Maya gave Carrissa a look with her large red and a slightly worried.
  734. [02:30] <Johanne> "Yeah... you're welcome. ...Ehh, you can... sleep with me, i-if you're still not feeling like sleeping on your own." She knitted her brows in concern for the poor boy, did he really get affected so much by the story?
  735. [02:31] <Carrissa> "'Course. If I can be there, I'll be there. If someone bumps into you, come to me and I'll pat your head. If you burn your finger, come to me and I'll cool it down and ice it!"
  736. [02:32] * Nyssa is going to meekly knock on the room where Maya and Carrissa are at.
  737. [02:32] <Maya> "Haha, I'm glad I met a nice human like you on my first day. I'll try my best not to dissapoint you." Maya nodded with a somewhat proud expression, she had her father to show as well afterall, why not add a bit more to the list?

  742. [02:34] * Thomas nodded, "If you don't mind, miss Johanne..." Thomas circles around to lay down on the left side of the bed. "I've been hearing this weird noise out of the window in my room the last few nights. S-So this would be best..."
  743. [02:35] * Carrissa nodded and stood up. "You've got a hundred years until a hundred years from now. You don't need to rush~" Carrissa pulled her hand away and toyed briefly with her ear without looking as she went to, and opened, the door.
  744. [02:36] <Carrissa> "Ah, Nyssa, didn't want to wake you. Want to sleep in here tonight? Or find the boyo or Jo?"
  745. [02:37] <Nyssa> "Uhm, I just couldn't sleep, sorry." Nyssa looks a little aplogetic. "I heard you talking, mind if I come in?'
  746. [02:37] * Carrissa glanced back to Maya. "Mind?"
  747. [02:38] <Johanne> "Weird noise. It's just a stray or something..." She waves it off, having not seen the grey dressed girl earlier. She crawls over to the other side and slips under she sheets.
  748. [02:38] * Maya shakes her head, "It's alright."
  749. [02:39] * Carrissa slides aside with a welcoming wave.
  750. [02:40] * Nyssa walks in. "Ah...thanks."
  751. [02:40] <Thomas> "Well ok.." Thomas crawls under the sheets. It was nice to not be all alone in this big house...If Johanne died, how did it happen? No, he didn't want to know...He'd just cry again. He was eager for another day to hear another story, "G-Goodnight miss Johanne..."
  752. [02:42] <Johanne> "Yeah... Sleep well." She lay awake, not really feeling tired.

  754. [02:44] <Nyssa> "So, why are you girls still awake?"
  755. [02:46] -->| Yusa (WinNT@sux-7D051AFD.ec.res.rr.com) has joined #MAIDRP
  756. [02:48] * Thomas fidgeted a bit, he wasn't really all that tired either, "S-So what were you doing before you came to my mansion? Were you just working somewhere else?" he tried to make pillow talk, looking at the back of Johanne's head
  757. [02:50] * Maya turns to Carrissa, wondering what Nyssa meant by that 'why?'
  758. [02:51] <Johanne> "Hm? I guess... I was in the dirt." She shrugged. "I cannot remember a great deal, just that I've always liked maids."
  759. [02:52] <Carrissa> "Hum, there's two, should be enough for us. She was wondering if we thought there wouldn't be enough space, Mayaaa," she said, yawning and undressing herself in a stretch. "So what plan? One to a bed, someone takes the floor, two sleep together, or push the beds together and sleep together?"
  760. [02:52] <Thomas> "O-Oh! So you became undead quite recently...Was it hard digging yourself up? W-Were there worms on you? Father said I 'came from the earth' once, but I don't really know what he meant...D-Do you not remember the old you?" Thomas was abuzz with questions, scooting closer
  761. [02:53] <Johanne> "H-hey, that's kinda personal you know..."
  762. [02:53] <Nyssa> "Uhm...not sure, actually."
  763. [02:53] <Johanne> "I don't remember... too much about my old life. Just bits- like pictures."
  764. [02:54] <Maya> "I'm not quite sure myself, I've never slept in the same bed as someone before." Maya answered.
  765. [02:56] <Thomas> "Uh huh...I-I'm sorry! I...Haven't had anyone to talk to for awhile. I read alot, and paint. So they're like friends to me. S-So if I'm 'reading too far' I'm sorry...You can ask something about me? I-If you care.."
  766. [02:56] =-= Yusa is now known as Lemon|Dead
  767. [02:57] <Carrissa> "Hmm~ I'll just sleep at the foot of the bed," Carrissa commented offhand as she stole a pillof from a bed and did just that, pulling a small lamp from her luggage and setting it next to her. She folded her hands behind her head to hold the pillow there and visibly relaxed...more so than usual, at least.
  768. [02:58] <Johanne> "...You make it hard to get mad at you. F-fine, since you said to... What do you like to paint the most?"
  769. [03:00] * Thomas blushes, "Just whatever I can see...I have trouble putting thoughts to canvas, s-so I try to take pictures with paint...I like to paint people I guess. Though I was stuck just drawing trees and birds for awhile. Uhm...I painted a picture of you this morning. Please forgive me. I saw you cleaning from the living room..."
  770. [03:00] <Nyssa> "..." Nyssa leans against the wall, lost in thought as she's mumbling stuff to herself.
  771. [03:01] * Maya decides to sleep in the same bed as Carrissa, taking off her clothes and changing in a pair of bat pattern pajamas. "Good night Carrissa, good night Nyssa." she said as she pulled a blanket over herself.
  772. [03:02] <Johanne> "...What?! N-no, I won't f-forgive you!!" She turned around to face the boy, then... defused. "J-just don't make it a habit..." Johanne closed her eyes and "hmph"'d.
  773. [03:03] * Nyssa kinda nods to Maya as she's still thinking to herself.
  774. [03:04] <Thomas> "I'm sorry! I really, really am!" his ears lay flat, "I won't do it again..." he mumbled. "Y-You were really very graceful..."
  775. [03:05] <Carrissa> "'Night, Maya~ 'Night, Nyssa~ I'll be awake for a bit, so bother me if you can't sleep." She lit the lantern and then covered it--no light escaped and it would burn out very soon, but that was fine.
  776. [03:06] <Johanne> "What's with that! You start by saying something good, then throwing me off at the end?! I don't get you!"
  777. [03:06] * Maya simply falls asleep without much of a fuss.
  778. [03:07] <Thomas> "What do you mean...?" the sheets rustle as his tail swishes back and forth, "I don't mean to throw you off though..." Thomas yawns, looking at Johanne
  779. [03:08] <Nyssa> ..." Nyssa wais until both are asleep as she decides to pull out a laptop from her dress. Bored, she begins to tap stuff.
  780. [03:08] <Nyssa> "...no wi-fi, of course."
  781. [03:09] * Johanne sighed. "Just sleep.." She pulled Thomas closer to herself and brought him to her chest, hopefully to stop him from talking.
  782. [03:11] * Thomas blushes and nods, hugging Johanne. the linen wraps around her really soft...he tries to mumble something, but falls asleep soon
  783. [03:12] * Johanne blushed and lay there in silence before finally closing her own eyes in sleep.
  784. [03:14] * Carrissa leans back against the bed and closes her eyes until the small flame burns out. She uncovers it, yawns, and pushes it aside, done with it. She grabs a jacket from her case and turns, putting her face on the bed instead with the jacket over her shoulders, and falls asleep promptly, if not restlessly.
  785. [03:15] <Thomas> The first day at Thomas's mansion with a new batch of maids, not particularly eventful, but drastic changes abound. What would happen in the days to come...? A blonde girl in grey slinked alongside the house, peering into the study...
  786. [03:16] * Carrissa , late, late in the knight shuffles around and gradually ends up sprawled across the bed, largely encroaching Maya's personal space, and stopped shuffling about, falling into deep sleep.
  787. [03:17] * Maya mumbles in her sleep and...bites something.
