A Tired Fallen Angel

[ainodatenshi]

[A tired looking Flonne plops herself down at one of the tables in the main area of the castle. She's tired, but has still been up early, cause she prides herself on being a morning riser, and all.

She's been so busy the past few days. Anyone who decided to stay, either working for Laharl or paying rent or whatever reason, Flonne's done her best to make sure everyone who needs a room has one--not that there's any lack of those in the castle. The trouble was more finding ones that could be made suitable to live in--many being unused for sometime, covered in sheets or dust or both. She's helped clean them (along with getting some prinnies to help,) finding fresh bedding, giving tours of the castle, and just been doing everything she can to try to make everyone feel welcome.

Even if Laharl won't think of them as guests, Flonne still is treating them all as such. So there, Laharl.]

I sure hope that's everyone...

[Laharl's noticed Flonne being nice to their new residents, but he hasn't noticed exactly how much work she's been putting into that. So despite the fact that this is Flonne, his first assumption on seeing her like this is that she's as fed up with these people as he is.]

Tired of our intruders already?

[Yeah, definitely not thinking of them as guests there.]

[ainodatenshi]

[You should know better, Laharl.]

Eh? ...No, not really?

[makainoou]

[He should, but that would require trying to think from her perspective.]

Sure seems that way. You look pretty worn out.

[ainodatenshi]

Ah, well... I guess I am pretty tired. I've been trying to make sure everyone who's staying has a room and cleaning them up a bit... Some of them were getting really dusty, Laharl.

[makainoou]

I never told you to do any of that.

[ainodatenshi]

I know you didn't tell me to?

[makainoou]

Then what were you doing all that work for?

[ainodatenshi]

Because I wanted to?

[makainoou]

...why?

[Wasn't she just complaining about how dusty everything was?]

[ainodatenshi]

Because it was the least I could do for them all.

[Yeah, as in, it needs fixing.]

[makainoou]

You don't owe these people anything. They just showed up here.

[ainodatenshi]

That doesn't mean we can't be a little hospitable to them.

[makainoou]

I am being a little hospitable. You're going overboard.

[ainodatenshi]

Mmm... not really...

[makainoou]

You're helping out so much you're wearing yourself out. How is that not overboard?

[ainodatenshi]

That's only because there were so many people to help out! I think everything is okay now.

[makainoou]

...right.

Well, try not to let them dupe you into doing any more work for them.

[ainodatenshi]

They didn't dupe me.

[makainoou]

If you say so. You are pretty gullible.

[ainodatenshi]

I-I'm not gullible! [POUTpoutpout!]

[makainoou]

Hmm... You might be less gullible than when you got here, but that's not saying much.

[ainodatenshi]

[Just... woe.]

[narsheprincess]

[Terra, after insisting on doing her part to make the room she's claimed livable, wants nothing so much as to lay down and rest. But she's can't do so without acknowledging the help given. Once the prinnies directed her to the responsible party, the green-haired woman tentatively approaches.]

Hello....

[ainodatenshi]

[Flonne right away perks up when she's approached, putting on a bright, friendly smile. What? You didn't see her looking exhausted.]

Ah! Hello there!

[narsheprincess]

[Terra looks a little guilty now, noting the exhaustion before it was shoved aside.]

You don't need to get up. I just wanted to thank you for all your help. It would have taken a lot longer to clean that room without you and your prinnies.

[ainodatenshi]

Oh, you don't have to thank me! It was the least I could do, for you all, given, ah, everything.

[She feels so bad for them all. :< ]
