❖ The queen entered her parlor, taking a seat near the fireplace. Letting out a sigh, she'd wait for Neb to bring her tea; curious how this Orange Jasmine would taste. It sounded fruity and while usually not her preferred blend, it had peaked her interest. A citrus flavor infused with Jasmine; a delightful aroma blend that was known for it's numerous health benefits. Perhaps the gunner would join her for a cup and she could pick her brain about the design for the throne room. She also wanted to see if something was in fact bothering her Ace, her well being being her business. If something was troubling her, Evelyn would do what she could to help her. While waiting, she looked up at the old painting on the wall of a woman who had long passed from this world. 'Ah yes, one of my first...' she recalled. The woman was something of a wet nurse who helped around the castle here and there. Shortly after she made this work of art, the model disappeared without a trace. Thinking about it now, Evelyn believed she had likely been killed for one reason or another and suspected her father to be the blame. That was usually the case... Alas, she was now immortalized here on the wall of one of the monarch's favorite rooms. "...What was her name again?" Evelyn asked aloud, failing to recall what it was. To be fair, she never spoke to her much and was only a model by random. No, the painting was more symbolic as one of her first accomplishments rather than who it was. And yet, her identity was what was occupying Evelyn's time while she waited.

 xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxThe young woman had managed to neatly dress the cake as according to Nebula's orders. Before leaving to Lady Evelyn's room, the woman had also prepared her queen's tea water, making sure to pour it for her when she actually entered the room. After carting the treats in front of the woman's door, Val would politely give her reason for knocking from the other side. "Lady Evelyn, this is one of Lady Nebula's 'bunny girls,' here with your tea and cake," she said, grinning. She waited for the orders from the other woman, before she was allowed to enter.

❖ Evelyn continued to stare at the painting, admiring its features and tracing the strokes with her eyes. For her, this was entertainment at its finest and a viable way to pass the time while waiting for Nebula. At the sudden knock at the door, she had believed the woman had at last arrived, an expected smile ready to greet her; however, in her place was one of her servants, a "bunny girl" as she put it. For reasons unknown, her Ace desired to have servants, which she had no qualms with. But perhaps her sense of humor or an explanation lost to her, could explain why the woman had them wear a pair of rabbit ears and risque clothing. In any case, it was of no issue to her; Skaldevo had his strays and Nebula had her girls. Who was she to question what brought joy to her subordinate's faces? Such a queen she did not aspire to be. "Ah, yes. Please, come in" Evelyn called out, her smile fading. Instead the bunny would be greeted with a look of confusion and unfamiliarity. The blonde usually made it her business to know those who inhabited her castle, yes this included a few of Skal's dogs as well, and yet this woman who held her beautiful cake and tea came across as foreign.
Wait, no, her face seemed slightly familiar, yet her name was as lost to her as the woman in the painting. "Thank you dear... Forgive my asking, but are you... Patricia?" she asked, gesturing for her to set the cake on the table. Her appearance was different, but there were a few visual similarities this servant had with another bunny girl, Patricia. Before she could receive an answer, her attention was drawn away as someone appeared in her home. Hidden in the shadows, her "bats" stalked the corners of the castle, monitoring every movement (and finding every speck of dust that dared to dirty her halls). Alas, it was not an intruder, but Lily, returning through a portal...with someone else. The Liquid Mage would clarify what was going on, contacting her through a Communication Lacrima. That person? She hadn't expected to be meeting her so soon, she was ill prepared. Still dressed in her outing attire, a change was in order before meeting with the young lady. Perhaps she too should be allowed to change if she did in fact get messy trying to fight the drug lord. "Lily, dear? Please take the young lady to get cleaned up. I will be down momentarily" she replied with a smirk. Today was looking to be a great day indeed as she at last get to speak with the princess of this country. Though she was curious: What other gift did Lily have to give her? Evelyn didn't give it too much thought, diverting her gaze back to Val. "My apologies, where were we?"

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxThe young woman opened the door and walked in with cake and tea on cart, and a courteous grin on her face. That grin faded however, right after being encountered by the usual question that was all too common throughout her life. "No, milady Evelyn," Valeria responded, shaking her head after bowing to the other woman. As she rose to her feet, Valeria began to cut the woman'd cake with a clean knife, perfectly and without a slither of icing off of the slice. After Lady Evelyn attended to her personal duties, Valeria quickly responded after the other woman's question. "I am Valeria, Patricia's sister," she said as she would set the cake down for Evelyn to take, a fork to accompany the pastry. "I am rather docile, milady, I could understand why my identity may come off as vague, I apologize for not being more extroverted as my younger sister, milady." The woman bowed soon after in respect.

❖ Evelyn picked up the small saucer of cake and the fork just as soon as Valeria set it down. She continued to stare at the woman until it finally dawned on her. Patricia did have a sister, she called hearing about this...more than once, actually. Strange how she could have forgotten such a detail, her memory was never known to be shoddy. The poor girl blamed herself for being meek and soft spoken; such a foolish thing to apologize for, though she probably could do more to make herself noticeable. Nevertheless, for her to not remember such a person, especially one who was far more capable than Patricia- evident in her superb cake slicing, Evelyn was ashamed. If she inhabited this castle, the empress should do a better job at remembering her face. "Come now, I can clearly see you are nothing like your sister. You should take pride in that." That other servant of Nebula's was simply awful and very little use in her eyes. Why she remained employed was a mystery, although the queen took great joy in watching her suffer. No, this one was different, especially if she was entrusted with the task of serving her in Nebula's place. Picking up her fork, she would take a bite out of her slice of cake, the joy on her face expressing her approval. The spongy texture of the cake, the silky sweet cream cheese and her favorite, fresh strawberries, all coming together for this delectable treat. As usual, her Ace had outdone herself yet again. "Delicious. Simply marvelous" the blonde spoke aloud her satisfaction to the treat. Her soft crimson orbs would wander up to bunny who still stood before her, a subtle frown on her face. "Tell me, where has Nebula gone? I was looking forward to speaking with her..." she asked, having noticed her presence absent within the walls of the castle.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxThank goodness she was nothing like Patricia, this was honestly the best birthday gift the other woman could ask her, minus the dinner reservation that her husband had prepared for her as well as the birthday card her three-year-old drew for her. Regardless, Valeria smiled kindly towards her queen, "Hearing that from you is utterly reassuring, you have made my day ten-times better," the woman bowed graciously, "Thank you, thank you so much milady." The woman straightened to her original posture, her grin widening at Evelyn's approval of the cake, Nebula was truly a gifted chef when given the chance to; thankfully, Lady Evelyn was there to keep the Ace grounded in her hobbies, such as cooking. "I will give the regards to Mistress Seth, Lady Evelyn... Oh... She didn't tell you?"
Valeria was sincerely shocked that Nebula had not told Evelyn of her whereabouts, Val was actually feeling guilty that she knew of her boss' whereabouts, but Evelyn did not. "Unfortunately Milady, I only know bits and pieces of Mistress Seth's current location," the girl confessed. She glanced at the cake, a bit upset at seeing the Queen this upset, she was not used to seeing the woman frown. "Mistress Seth told me that she was going to speak to an old friend, she did not give a specific location or name, I am sorry, that is all I know..." Valeria tried to change the mood in hopes of cheering up Lady Evelyn, "H-however, she did prepare your bath, and she did promise to be back soon... Again, I'm sorry... I thought she had told you herself..."

❖ How unusual and uncharacteristic of Nebula to leave without telling her. It seemed she didn't tell her servant much either, only stating her business to visit an old friend. While this would normally be fine, given her earlier behavior in the throne room, she sensed something was amiss. Was everything truly alright with her? She wondered...if maybe this old friend was more than a long time associate. Maybe an old business connection? When it came to these things, there was very little the woman knew about Nebula, in particular her past since she never spoke of it. So with no other information, Evelyn was left to speculate and worry for her Ace. Of course she could handle herself, but still... Closing her eyes, she took another piece off slice and hummed to herself in thought. Val would capture her attention once more when she brought up her bath; Nebula drawing it before she left and promising her swift return. "I see... No, the fault does not lie with you. Obviously Nebula has her reasons, I'm sure. Thank you... I'm...sorry, what is your name, young lady?" Evelyn asked, realizing she didn't know it any better than the woman in the painting. She would be sure to remember it; a servant this well mannered deserved to be memorized.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxVal bowed, her head lowered, but lowered enough to maintain eye contact with Evelyn, "My name is Valeria, Milady Evelyn, I was brought into this castle the same time my younger sister was," Valeria straightened her posture and smiled. "I hope to be a useful asset to your kingdom, Lady Dhar-" The doors had flung open as a girl no taller than five-foot-even, barged through the parlor until she was next to the girl identical to her. Her hair swooped over her forehead, messy and unkempt, but in a way that passed off as fashionable. She glanced over the large room for a moment before speaking, a long and tired sigh escaping from her pale lips as if she were pained to speak. "I fell asleep on the job, I'm sorry," Patty said without any ounce of remorse in her voice. Her informal introduction and balls to walk in without permission disgusted her elder sister, who flashed a death-glare at her sister. "Is that any way to come in, Patricia?!" Patty rolled her eyes, preparing to lower down her suit. "NO PATTY, I DON'T MEAN WHEN IN FRONT OF NEBULA. I DON'T EVEN THINK SHE LIKES THAT!!!" With a flushed face, Valeria turned towards Evelyn apologetically, "I apologize on my sister's behalf, she's actually a very miserable person."Patty folded her arms over her chest and puffed one cheek, scanning Evelyn in disapproval. "Yeah, well... I was supposed to relay a message to you from the bitc... Boss," Patty said before clearing her throat, "I went to go see an old friend, I will be back later. Sincerely, Nebula." After finishing, Patty turned her head to her sister, who appeared to be red in rage. "... I already told her that, Patricia... Can you just... Not...?" Val buried her face in her hands and sighed loudly, unable to maintain her patience any longer. Before Patty would respond, the woman was interrupted by an echoing roar coming from the throne room, which also caused her sister to react, but with a quiet yelp. Patty however... "SON OF A b***h WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL WAS THAT!?"

❖ Just as Valeria was introducing herself, though she didn't show it, she was surprised to hear her name. This was the Valeria Nebula often praised as her best servant?! Well then that would make a lot of sense and explain how she was left in charge. Evelyn was very satisfied with her service which she would tell the girl in just a moment. Except a minor interruption would make itself known as she suddenly thrust open open the doors of the parlor room with such reckless abandon. The Empress shot this particular individual a sharp glare, eyes tracing her form as she entered the room and stood beside Valeria. This type of behavior and lack of respect was typical of Patricia...but that didn't mean it would go unexcused. Her sister was the first to scold her, which lead to her to wanting to strip for some bizarre reason. Whatever went on in that rotten head of hers was a complete mystery to Evelyn, but she was sure she didn't want to know and risk any sort of "poisoning". The older sister would apologize, the queen holding up her hand in response to stop her. "There is no need. This one is beyond any sort of help and any apologies are wasted on her. I apologize that you must share a name with this...child" she shook her head.
While she allowed Patricia to speak her piece, she went ahead and finished her slice of cake. Just as she finished, a loud and menacing roar would shake the walls of the castle; Evelyn sitting unphased, yet kept an eye on the windows. Fortunately for Skal, not a single crack this time. Ignoring Patricia's crass response to the clamorous growl of the local werewolf, the blonde would set her plate down on the small table and rise from her seat. "Oh dear. It seems Skaldevo is rather upset at our guest. Unfortunately, I won't have time for tea, I must make myself presentable." Using her parasol as a cane, she would stare at Patty before tapping it on the floor. With two clicks, a pair of clawed hands would emerge from the shadows and reach out to grab hold of the girl's ankles. Without hesitation, she would be violently dragged along the ground, up the wall and finally be hung from the ceiling by her feet. Evelyn would wind her finger in the air until Patty was eye level with her despite being upside down. "Be a good girl and wait here. I believe the people of this generation call it 'hanging out'? Ah, Valeria. Once you've cleaned this room, tend to our guest. And please, take the cake, I would hate for it to go to waste. I'm going to take my bath now" she informed her. As she made her way to the door, she would stop and look back at Patty again, twirling her finger once to make the girl start spinning. "Patricia... If you get sick, I will make you clean it with your tongue... And then you will clean it again to my satisfaction. Do I make myself clear? Valeria, you may let your sister down once you've finished your chores for the day." That said, the Empress would head to her room to get cleaned up.
