Oh? A new Servant?

Are you the new servant? What? You're not? Well, you look like one... Either way, my name is Elise.

The Wealthy || Arthur & Elise

[transientvisions]

[Her makes him smile, clearly relieved. He hated to appear unprofessional when it came to trade matters.] Ah, I’m glad to hear it. I wouldn’t want to keep you waiting, since you’ve had such a long trip.

Oh—most of us are properly equipped with dealing with the threats immediately outside of town. [He smiled reassuringly.] Most of the areas immediately by town won’t have any creatures attacking unprovoked anyway.

[It’s only a quick walk from the airship docks to his office; he nodded as he holds the door open.] Yes, it should be quite simple. So long as you brought the paperwork I sent over the mail, there shouldn’t be much more. I appreciate your business, it’s quite the novelty to have things coming all the way from Oak Tree Town. 

[snotty-elise]

[Elise went ahead and entered through the doors, patiently waiting for Arthur.] Why, thank you! And I will try my best to make sure we keep sending the finest quality we have. [Elise smiled ever so dearly and nodded.] The papers are right here with me-- [Elise brought up the papers just to make sure she had them.]

[She looked around her surroundings and to say the least, it was amazing! It was spacious, and the smell of the food was extraordinary. She expected no less from the Kingdom. In a way, she honestly felt like a princess. Then again, when does she not?] Oh-- What a wonderful place this is!

Dear Diary [Elise/Mistel]

[pechvogeltje-blog]

[He paused, frowning, as he watched Elise’s face. She wasn’t even looking at him now. What melodramatics after something that could easily be explained away as a misunderstanding.]

[Even more annoying, however, is the way guilt is tugging on the back of his mind. He had never been very good at lying, after all - and the guilt is starting to feel a bit too heavy. In fact, lying about reading it is starting to feel worse than having read it at all.]

… Fine. Here. [He pulls the journal from a drawer beneath his counter - setting it on the surface between them.] I didn’t read it. I just skimmed it once I realized it wasn’t blank. [He leans back in his chair, folding his arms over his chest.] But for what it’s worth, you could have just asked for it back. You didn’t need to come in here and look around as though I’d hidden it amongst the antiques.

[snotty-elise]

[Elise sighed, dropping her knees to the ground. All the stress from work has finally taken a toll on her. It's no one's fault either, she knew what she had gotten herself into, and now that she went ahead and made a fool of herself added more to those tiny shoulders.] It doesn't matter anymore...

[Elise's eyes wouldn't leave the ground, nor did she plan to get the journal. What was the point of it all? Why write down her pathetic feelings away if in the end it doesn't even help one single bit. Instead it caused an even bigger issue.] You can throw it away... [After trying to regain her strength, she finally tried to stand up, feeling the cool surface of the floor with her tiny palms.] I didn't mean for this... To happen. Is there anyway I can make it up..?

[snotty-elise]

Why Me? || Hart&Elise

[dontbreakmyhart]

*Hart felt bad for saying things without thinking.* S-Sorry! *He looked away feeling rather embarrassed.* I… Didn’t mean to. *Hart couldn’t help but rub the back of his head.* If it makes you feel better… I haven’t— *He suddenly stopped talking as soon as he saw what she tried to hand him* Woah— No! I cannot take that much! Maybe like 20 would’ve been plenty, but I can’t take that! Not without repaying you!

[snotty-elise]

[Elise felt like slapping the guy. He first insulted her, now he wont accept her offer?] Fine! I'll give you this if you become my servant for the day, does that sound fair? Just take it! [Elise took his hand and placed the money on his palms.] Now shut up and work!

[snotty-elise]

Why Me? || Hart&Elise

[dontbreakmyhart]

*Eyes wide open* Are you serious? Wow, you must be hella rich. *Sighs* Boy, does that sound awesome. Living in the luxury. *Turns to look at her. Hart couldn’t help but smile* That’s gotta be the life. I can barely make enough money to buy food. Let alone another house.

[snotty-elise]

[Elise tried her best not to think about what he said. But of course... It's sort of hard not to.] How DARE you! Just because I'm rich doesn't mean I have it easy you know! [Elise sighed, looking away] It sounds awesome... But it's not. [From there she wasn't sure what to do... Although he actually did have it tough... She dig into her purse, pulling out her wallet] ... Don't have any funny ideas! I'm not doing this because I think you're a decent person or anything.. [Elise took out 3 bills, each one being a 100 dollar bill.] It's not much... But it's my pocket change. 

[snotty-elise]

Since he was visiting Oak Tree Town, Pierre thought of visiting Elise. They haven't seen each other in a long time but he definitely remember having fun while hanging out with her, maybe. While he was walking through town he definitely noticed the big and colorful house with the big gardens. He walked over and knocked on the door hoping she would remember him.

Elise opened the door and looked to her left and then to her right. “What the..?” She could have sworn someone knocked on her door… Then a purple hat caught her eye. “Oh! Pierre!” Elise was shocked to see the small gourmet. “Come in, come in! It’s been such a long time!”

[petitgourmet-deactivated2016011]

Pierre was surprised it was Elise herself who opened the door, he was expecting a butler or a maid to do that for her. What was she doing, she wasn’t much taller than he was, and how did she miss the tall hat he was wearing. Classic Elise, he thought to himself. 

"Yes it has! It has been, what, at least 7 years?" Pierre finished with a giggle as he walked in the mansion. It was a very impressive place and it was very organized. "I was visiting the farms nearby and I thought I would visit you while I was in town." 

[snotty-elise]

Elise smiled happily, “How thoughtful of you~” Believe it or not, Elise was actually fond of Pierre. It was a bit hard to walk on her high heels through the house... Specially when the floor is squeaky clean. "Well, I'm glad you decided to visit~" She waved a maid to come closer and whispered, "Get me some flats... These things are killing me..." The maid nodded and scurried away, Elise turned her attention back to Pierre and smiled, "Come right this way~ We have a lot of catching up to do!" Elise started to guided Pierre through her kitchen, getting closer to a room. "My office is just around the corner--" Elise waited for Pierre to enter first, holding the door open.

A Farming Princess?! [Elise/Dia]

[marinaandthestrawberries-blog]

This was amazing! It was so much better than the farm in the valley or even the farms in Flowerbud. She wasn’t sure if this meant that the owner cared too much about their farm or if others cared too little. Regardless of the answer, this was all just so magnificent. Even the animals looked splendid. To meet the owner of this would have been an honor.

Well, it would have been.

Dia stared at her with wide eyes. Never before has anyone talked to her like that, intruding in places or not. Her eyes wandered up and down the girls form, taking in her appearance. She was no common farmer, that much was sure. She dressed quite differently than other farmers; more regal and elegant. “Pardon me. I only came to look around and I found this farm here.”

[snotty-elise]

Elise could feel the stress crawling back to her. She tried taking a deep breath, and smiled. "Oh, sure~ If you'd like I can give you a small tour-- Although at the moment my servants and I are still working on a few buildings-- But if you like you're more than welcome to rest inside my house. It is awfully cold out here..." Elise hates the cold-- Even if its merely 60 degrees, in her head Elise believes she is freezing.

"Is there anything I can get for ya? We have all sorts of tea, macaroons, deserts?" Hospitality if the number one key to excellent customer service. "Free of charge of course! It's my way of saying 'Thank you for visiting'"

[snotty-elise]

Why Me? || Hart&Elise

[dontbreakmyhart]

*Shrugged his shoulders* I was looking forward for a kiss… But I guess money would do. *Started walking to Echo Village* So what brings you here? Echo Village is pretty dull. It’s full of weirdos like that one guy who is obsessed with hair, another one has some social issues. *He kept going on and on about the villagers* I can’t help but wonder why a beauty like you would come here.

[snotty-elise]

[Elise was speechless. But... She liked the compliments. She kept listening to him ramble on about the people there and it made her second think about this trip.] ... Oh my god, really? That does sound weird... [Elise couldn't help but laugh.] Well... I just wanted to open a new shop there. Where I live I run my own Ranch. It's really successful and i thought maybe buying another house because... Why not?

[snotty-elise]

Since he was visiting Oak Tree Town, Pierre thought of visiting Elise. They haven't seen each other in a long time but he definitely remember having fun while hanging out with her, maybe. While he was walking through town he definitely noticed the big and colorful house with the big gardens. He walked over and knocked on the door hoping she would remember him.

Elise opened the door and looked to her left and then to her right. "What the..?" She could have sworn someone knocked on her door... Then a purple hat caught her eye. "Oh! Pierre!" Elise was shocked to see the small gourmet. "Come in, come in! It's been such a long time!"

Let's Talk About Business || Gill & Elise

[grumpy-gilligan]

Well, if there was one thing Gill knew about this stranger entering the town hall, it was that she at least knew what she wanted. Quick to state what it was, too; he hadn’t had a chance to look up yet. He admired that, though; the ability to have one’s mind made up.

"Yes?" He pulled out a folder neatly labelled ‘Plots’ and another labelled ‘Property.’

"What sort of land are you looking for?"

[snotty-elise]

Elise noticed the blonde man pulling out a folder and ready for business. She enjoyed that-- A man with business quality is hard to come by, almost instantaneously her pitch changed a tad bit, sounding sweeter. "I'm looking for a spacious land. Sort of like a vacation home would do." Just hearing the word 'vacation' made her smile. This is her second thing she has done on a whim, the first one starting up her own ranch.

"Perhaps one near by the beach if possible as well. No matter the price or if any building is there-- I'll start from scratch." She had more than enough to do that. 

[snotty-elise]

I Guess You're Okay || Minori & Elise

[mininori-archives]

Without hesitation, Minori started giggling the blonde’s reaction. “Yeah, that wasn’t much of the plan this time but, it happened.” The brunette smiled. She couldn’t help herself from saying those words. After all, she was shocked to see Elise waiting outside her house. Although, not as shocked as Elise seemed when she appeared behind her.

"Well, what was I suppose to do then?!" She jokingly replied, rolling her eyes. Otis replied with a small bark, excited to see someone who wasn’t his owner. "So, whatcha came by for? Just to visit?" Pause. "I should probably let you inside my house before we both freeze."

[snotty-elise]

Elise couldn't help but laugh a little, "I don't know, maybe you should try not yelling my name next time?" The blonde, as well, rolled her eyes and looked down at ottis, reaching to pet him. "You're adorable as ever~" If Elise had a weakness, it'll be animals. 

"Pretty much-- I thought I'd take a break from all that work I have. Besides, I haven't talked to you in a while-- and yes. I'm dying out here."

[snotty-elise]

*Humming along to a song on one of those fancy new 'mp3 players' he's heard so much about from his students, not noticing he's wandered on to the wealthy woman's property until he bumps into one of the walls on the exterior of the estate. He falls over* Oof! Oh my.

No! Not there! *Sigh* Can’t you guys do anything right? Put the tree next to the entrance and fix my garden! *Walks away from the servants, rolling her eyes.* Geeze! They’re so dumb… *Looks at the man who’s on the ground.* What are you doing here? Are you one of the new servants? Get to work!

[ivan-t-your-love]

*Nods; while he does feel terribly guilty for doing this, he can’t help but admit to himself that he does think he’ll enjoy some extra work. He could buy some nice Christmas presents for his cat and brother this year with the extra pay, too* Ah, thank you!

*He fills out the form, taking both his tutoring schedule and time with Harry into account* Now, I’m afraid I won’t have much time on weekdays, miss, but  Friday to Sunday I certainly will be able to have longer, ah, shifts, you may call them. I’m very pleased to be able to work here for you.

[snotty-elise]

[Elise took the form and nodded] It's perfect actually. Not many are willing to work during the weekends. [She signed the form and placed it on her desk.] Now I usually pay my workers two weeks in advance so putting the hours into account... [Elise took out her calculator and multiplied his hours plus the money] It's not much but I hope it's enough... [Elise took out her wallet and took out a key.] Give me a minute. [She opened the safe just underneath her desk and took out about 1,200 dollars] There we go. It's not much but I try and give them in advance so you guys don't have to wait. Your starting pay is around 20$ an hour-- If you do good in your department, it is possible to get a raise in your next pay day.

[Elise smiled sweetly at Ivan] Welcome to Lovely Ranch!~ I'm looking forward to working with you.

[snotty-elise]

Why Me? || Hart&Elise

[dontbreakmyhart]

*Smirks* Iuno, whats in it for me if I helped ya? *Stretches arms before standing up* I just so happen to live there.

[snotty-elise]

[Elise rolled her eyes and sighed] I'll give you some money if that's what you're looking for. Now show me the way! I have important things to do, instead of talking to you. [Elise eyeballed the stranger once more and shook her head. He's definitely NOT cute]

[pechvogeltje-blog]

Dear Diary [Elise/Mistel]

[pechvogeltje-blog]

[He blinks. Looks to her hand, to the fist she’s balling up. Blinks again. Looks back to her face, still blinking rapidly.]

Read what? I assure you, Ms. Elise, I touched nothing while I was in your room. In fact, I was barely there to do much of anything for as quickly as you kicked me out. [He scratches his jaw aimlessly.] And I took nothing except the notebook you intended for Iris, and the box of macaroons. Unless it’s that notebook you’re talking about? I thought it was blank.

[Shrugs.] Do you want it back?

[snotty-elise]

[Elise just nodded. She felt embarrassed and above all... She felt lied to.] Yes. [He must have read it... She KNEW he read it... Her face wouldn't look down from the floor. What is she suppose to do now?] I'll leave as soon as I can get it back. I'll have my servant deliver the correct journal. [She was never-- EVER planning on coming back... There's no way she could.]

A Farming Princess?! [Elise/Dia]

Dia didn’t want to go with Gina to some other village to do her errands. With her current health condition, Martha thought it would be a good idea for them to go out further than usual. She was the healthiest she had been in a long while. It would be foolish if she didn’t go out and enjoy the sun while she still could.

At some point, she had drifted away from her maid. She wandered around the town, finding that it was quite quaint. It was quite different from Sugarleaf Valley but it wasn’t uncomfortable. Usually, she would have problems adapting to some places, but adapting (even if it was only temporarily) was quite easy.

Arriving on a farm, she looked over it with scrutinizing eyes. The farms she had usually seen were filthy and hardly had any class. This one was different. She wouldn’t say it out loud, but she was impressed! Whoever took care of it must be a wonderful farmer. Crossing her arms, she wandered around the farm, marveling at all around her.

[snotty-elise]

Elise didn't wanted to move a single muscle. All day today has been nothing but work and work. Like... Really? Can't she just go to the spa or something? Sighing deeply, the blonde decided it was time to rest. "Lunch break everyone!" She rang the bell so that her servants could catch their breath and enjoy their hour break. Believe it or not, Elise actually took well care of her servants... Not including her yelling at them. 

The blonde mistress sat outside in her porch, admiring her view. "I'm so glad I moved out on my own..." She took in a deep breath and smiled. "I hope you're proud..." Before she knew it, she saw someone in her territory. "What the..?" The unfamiliar girl didn't look like her servants... Who is she? Elise stood up, feeling rather annoyed having to end her break now.

"Hey!" She yelled at the brunette and speed walked towards her. "Do you need anything?" Her eyes darted at her with rage, but still sounding rather... Professional. Maybe she's interested in her animals. 

[snotty-elise]

Why Me? || Hart&Elise

[dontbreakmyhart]

*Felt something poke his stomach* Hmm… *Tries to ignore it… But it is hard to* … *Slowly opens his eyes* Eughh… What do you want? *Yawns* Can’t you see I’m sleeping? *Rub his eyes, trying to see the girl who’s standing in front of him* … You’re lucky your a girl AND cute. *Sighs* What can I help ya’ with?

[snotty-elise]

[Elise could feel a pout forming, as well as a small blush] Stop trying to flatter me! I just thought you were dead! You pig! [Elise turned her back to the stranger but then realized... She doesn't know the way. This is her first time ever traveling by herself.] ... But if you insist on helping me... I need to fin my way to Echo Village. Where is it?

[rainingteadrops]

Pleated Black Skirt

[snotty-elise]

Why Me? || Hart&Elise

Last thing she wanted to do is leave the house. After certain events, Elise was in no mood to go out, or do anything for that matter. "This is so STUPID!" The blonde mistress shook her head and sighed. "Whatever. Let's get this over with." When she heard about this Echo Village, it is her duty to check out the place and see what land can be bought so she could rent it out, in other words, to double her money. 

On her way to this... Village, she spotted a man under a tree... Was he alright? Elise walked closer to the man and stared at him. "Hello? Are you alright?" There was no response. She took the nearest twig and started to poke the stranger. There was no way in hell she was going to touch a rodent-- I mean a filthy human! "Hey. Wake up."
