 A long winding driveway leads up to this beautiful two story, five bedroom, home. On this fifteen acre property resides a three car garage, a guest house, a bike trail, a pink tennis court, and a pool.
Within the walls lies three full baths, spacious kitchen, living room, dining room, and home theater. Hannah employs a chef, groundskeepers, housekeepers, bodyguards, and one full time butler. Of which, two live in the mansion with Hannah (Jones the butler and Sophie the chef).
Each room is designed with neutral colors to keep attention drawn to socializing and activities. Each room, that is, besides Hannah's bedroom.

 "Uuhh, kinda squeamish about Thai and Chinese," Tevia mumbled in casually thoughtful reply as he successfully located the proper button, and with satisfaction began sliding the tinted window silently down. He was unsmiling in his easily captured focus, but those calmly, perkily alert eyes couldn't have looked much less grave. He leaned his weight comfortably close to the open window, so that the breeze could start to lightly whip at him as they pulled away from the curb and began to gradually pick up speed, then looked her way and finished in explanation, with that same kind of amiable faux seriousness; "Peanut allergy. Like, I die and stuff, so.. 'kind of avoid that. Other than that I'm happy."-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

`·.Hannah ReedI saw a light in you,
Going out as I closed our window.
You never liked me anyway. ☆═━┈ Feeling: Excited☆═━┈ Location: Street ☆═━┈ ooc: With the window open, Hannah was a bit concerned of the wind messing up her hair. It didn't bother her enough to say anything, and with the way Tevia looked at the sky, she couldn't bring herself to tell him to shut it anyhow. The poor boy missed the outdoors. Hannah made a mental note to do some activities outside with him. It would be difficult to be a believable couple if he was unhappy. "Well, we wouldn't want that.", she spoke in regard to his allergy. She turned her attention to the front seat once again, "Please make sure to remind me to talk to the chef, Jones. I want to take all necessary precautions." "Of course, Ms. Reed.", the man replied in a respectful tone. It wasn't long before their car pulled up to the drive-thru of a burger chain. The driver, a middle aged man, already knew Hannah's order from experience and waited for the fae to speak up. "Get whatever you want, dear. He'll take care of it.", the girl coaxed. Soon the two had their meals in hand. Hannah didn't even wait for the car to start moving to pull out a wrapped chicken sandwich from the paper bag. She ate with the same manners as she would have at a dinner party, taking small bites and careful not to get any on her face or lap. No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
And no, I don't care anymore!

"'Appreciate that," he muttered wryly but sincerely, with a moment's cheeky little grin. The conversation's pause seemed natural, so he didn't bother forcing its survival, easily distracted by the world going by outside for the few minutes it took to reach their first stop. As they ordered he was leaning unabashedly low to peer across through the far windows, mouth idly agape a crack as he quickly perused the menu. "Uhh," he stalled for time briefly at her encouragement, slow to tear his hazel eyes away from the options, quickly making up his mind... then he decided, and leaned forward towards the front, tucking both hands on the corner of the seat in front of him for balance as he politely relayed his order. "Thanks," he told her brightly as he slumped back in his seat, seeming impressively at ease with the whole situation... or perhaps not so impressively, given how lucky he'd gotten with this whole thing. Not that he was probably as actively, appreciatively humble about his good fortune as he should have been. His anxieties about this whole slave thing were already largely forgotten, brushed aside the minute he'd stepped out into that sunshine. It was just one more adventure, now, and he'd never been one to live in anything but the present. Soon their food was delivered, and they were once more on their way. Tevia'd chosen a chicken wrap, with a small bag of carrot sticks for his side, and a grape juice, which he was pleased to discover had come in a bright colored little box with a straw. So, not a beverage aimed at adults, apparently, not that he knew any shame. He'd have ordered off the kids menu if they'd had any decent food options. 'Careful' was not a word to describe his manner of eating, utterly un-self-conscious and oblivious to the concept of appearances regarding such a thing, but he was certainly no savage, neat-mannered by nature. When he'd finished half his sandwich, he kept the other wrapped for later, and instead invested the remainder of his appetite in his carrot sticks. He munched on them idly with one hand, held his juice box in the other, and stared vacantly out the window as they drove, accidentally slipping a few more degrees out of the present than he intended, easily lost in his own daydream. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

`·.Hannah ReedI saw a light in you,
Going out as I closed our window.
You never liked me anyway. ☆═━┈ Feeling: Uncertain☆═━┈ Location: Street ☆═━┈ ooc: Hannah finished her sandwich, excited to continue the conversation. With a glance at the fae, with his little juice box, she noticed that he wasn't as intent on socializing. This was unusual for her. Silence when around company was unusual for her. She had expected him, who had been picked out by someone so kind and pretty from a slave shop, would be a little more eager to show some gratitude. At the very least, she had thought he would want to talk. He had seemed so charming in the hotel room... Maybe he didn't like her? No, that would be silly. She had been nothing but polite to him. Hannah let out a quiet sigh, reserving any complaints. She had to learn about him, just like he had to learn about her. That was the only way this would work. The two sat in silence as the car drove on. After five awkward minutes, Hannah couldn't take it anymore. "Now, about this job I have for you...", she started to get his attention, voice quieter than before. "You'll need to know a lot about me, and commit it to memory. Vice versa, I'll have to memorize facts about your persona. There will be tests." , she warned with a soft breathy laugh, not exactly threatening. No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
And no, I don't care anymore!

The elf was perfectly obliviousness to any awkwardness, a whole time and place away in those few minutes, more silent perhaps to his companion than they were to him, his face leaned nearly out the window into the sunshine, with the oncoming cars rushing past him, the wind whipping bracingly at his pointed ears, and the blurred sounds of the ocean-side city's life. When she spoke, though, she had his attention right away, and he pulled inside, hair faintly windswept, obvious intrigue triggered in those hazel eyes. His eyebrows lifted in growing interest as she spoke, an amused, curious almost-smile twitching distantly at his mouth, too distracted to form fully until she'd finished, at which point he huffed out a short breath of a laugh. His eyes were twinkling, fully involved, like they were discussing the rules of some engaging game they were about to play. Which, for him, they might as well have been. "For real? -- Okay, cool. I can definitely do that."He wanted to press for more answers, but resisted unless she decided not to say anything more. He was sure she'd get to everything in her own time; then he could ask questions, if he had any more. It already wasn't lost on him that this wasn't exactly vice versa, though. She had to memorize facts about one person, while he'd be memorizing those of two -- and then acting one out. Double the work plus. He wasn't complaining, though. This was, after all, still in the realm of what he did for fun on his own time anyway. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

`·.Hannah ReedI saw a light in you,

You never liked me anyway. ☆═━┈ Feeling: Uncertain☆═━┈ Location: Street ☆═━┈ ooc: She was glad she had his attention immediately. It almost seemed like he was looking forward to working for her. At least, that's what was perceived by Hannah. It wouldn't be that bad to let him in on it now. That way, they could just relax once they got home. She took a cleansing breather, readying herself. It wasn't exactly easy to talk about such a sensitive subject for her. Of course, she didn't expect to go too deeply into it. "Good, I'm really counting on you. Plus, it would be a bit awkward to have to send you back.", she giggled. "So, the reason I'm doing all this…Well, to be quite honest, it's for convenience." , she started to explain. It seemed obvious in retrospect. Everyone gets a slave for convenience. She continued, "My parents are thoroughly digging into my business and trying to get involved with aspects of my life they don't need to, as parents do. Their highest concern right now is finding me a suitable man to eventually marry."No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
And no, I don't care anymore!

He watched her with obvious curiosity, wondering at her clear discomfort. Whatever this was, it seemed like a pretty big deal to her. Probably not your average experienced criminal, then, though it was too soon to tell. Reading people wasn't exactly his strong suit; he wasn't completely dense in the area, just remarkably hit and miss. Her joke earned a sincerely amused tightening of his mouth, but he was distracted, more interested in what came next. He listened through her explanation, but found himself not really any clearer on exactly what she had in mind. There were a dozen possibilities he could have considered, but it seemed pointless to distract himself entertaining them when he was this close to getting the truth. "Ohh, yeah?" he murmured, and encouraged politely; "-- Okay. I mean, I'm not sure I follow you yet, but I'm with you, go on!" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

You never liked me anyway. ☆═━┈ Feeling: Uncertain☆═━┈ Location: Street ☆═━┈ ooc: She took his encouragement well, though was studying his face for any unfavorable reactions. She was nervous as to how he would take the news. "They've been setting me up with blind dates, and it's just as boring as it is distracting from what I want to do. I think I'll go bonkers if I have to hear another story about how great some entrepreneur is.", she sighed, distracted by her own grievances. Focusing back on the task at hand, she continued, "So, I need a reason to not go on these excursions without disappointing my parents. That's where you come in." , she smiled brightly at him, waiting for his initial reaction. After a moment of pause she went into further detail, "If I find a boy who is respectable, successful…someone who my parents will adore, I won't need to meet other men." Hannah hoped he had caught on by now. No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
And no, I don't care anymore!

A reasonable reaction, he concurred, yeah; arranged marriage-y type stuff, yikes, he didn't know people still did that kinda thing anymore. Sure, this certainly wasn't like, handing her off to some rich guy she'd never met or something, but still. Here, in this day and age? The upper class just operated differently, he supposed. He looked just as interested and politely agreeable as he had thus far, when she paused to gauge his reaction, clearly still not catching on... not till that final line. His expression didn't change for a moment, mind shorting out briefly as he processed -- and then it clicked, and he blinked once, expression falling blank with almost comical abruptness. "-- Wait -- wait what?" he asked quickly, jumping slightly. "-- Wait. Like. You mean, like--"he breathed out a quick laugh, feeling the merest threat of warmth at his cheeks, and tweaked the corner of his mouth out in an awkward, sheepish split second's grin, protesting hastily; "like, you're saying you need a wingman, right, someone to, y'know, pretend to be respectable in order to get to know someone who's uh... who's... thaaat's~..." he trailed off, speech slowing, unsure whether to laugh or not, feeling the faintly hysterical urge to but just catching up to the realization that that was probably not the reaction she wanted, "that's not what you mean, is it."-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

Hannah watched him stumble over his words nervously, her smile tightening. She had expected this for the most part, but was still a bit disappointed. At least he wasn't trying to jump out of the moving car or outright saying no. Wanting to calm the clearly uncomfortable fae, Hannah started speaking almost as hurriedly as he had been. "I'm not asking for much. Meeting my parents, some presence on social media, maybe a date or two--", her face betrayed her, hinting at her desperation. "If it's the intimacy you're worried about--We probably won't even have to hold hands!", her cheeks went a shade pinker. She started to slow down, catching herself, "I choose you for a reason, Tevia. I trust you can do it."No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
And no, I don't care anymore!

At least she wasn't alone in her embarrassment, proceeding to drag Tevia straight down with her as she hastily tried to assure him. His face was coloring as quickly as hers, his neck prickling, and he was trying awkwardly to get out a breathy laugh, awkwardness not at all canceling out some definite amusement. "Aw no, it-- naw yeah that's fine, I can pull that off. Sure. No problem. I just uh-- you know." He scratched sheepishly at his head, a breath shaking with humor, eyes twinkling up at her, at once shy and teasing, features visibly warm. "Definitely not what I was expecting. -- Hey, though."Because something had occurred to him, and it was easiest to just dive right into it and distract from their clearly mutual embarrassment. His expression had turned curious once more, unsmiling in his interest, but as light and open as ever. "So like, the point of this is to get your parents off your case, right? Well, what's the endgame? Just keep it up until you find someone to marry for real?"-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

This was hard enough as it was, she didn't need the most important piece of the plan to make a stink about it. No, he seemed to be taking it in stride, more or less. Now that the difficult news was uttered, the rest would be quite easy. "I'm so glad to hear that, thank you.", she said with sincere appreciation. She sat up straighter to listen to him, expression more serious. Her eyebrows raised, as if the thought had never occurred to her. "Well, not exactly. I'm hoping that with this relationship, my parents will see that I don't need to be dating to feel fulfilled and happy. If not, we could just pretend to break up or kill you off. Then every time they insist I try dating again I can turn on the water works because there's no replacing my dearest so-and-so!.", she added a change of tone for theatrics, placing the back of her hand against her forehead for added measure. Hannah then looked back at Tevia to see what he thought of her excellent plan. No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
And no, I don't care anymore!

"Brilliant," he replied emphatically, gaze wide with seriousness, but his mouth tweaked out in a short, cheeky little grin once she looked his way, brightly twinkling eyes at once shy and unafraid of anything, the little elf fully committed to the adventure already without a thought for anything else. "I'm in. When do we start making up my persona? Who am I gonna be? You've already thought this through a bunch, I bet you've got some ideas, right?"He pressed his mouth tightly together around his bendy straw for some grape juice, dark hazel eyes large and alight with calm excitement. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i like to bite my nails and play the air guitar

This was going to be a lot of fun. It was like putting on a play, only she just had to play as herself. Perhaps she had missed her calling for broadway. "I'm glad you asked! Since we have to make searchable background history, we can't have you be related to an already successful family, which was my first intention.", she began. "Instead, you will be a graduate of my sister school, someone making a name of themself, and a friend of a friend."She clasped her hands together in her lap. "I have a team of people involved in this, so we're not doing this alone. It has to be believable, after all.", she added with a proud smile. No, I don't see the light I saw in you before
No, I don't. No, I don't.
