This wasn’t as... Demeaning as she assumed it would. The maid outfit was ridiculous, there was no doubt about that and being seen outside of the castle in it, well, it didn’t bear thinking about. But the rest... Well the castle wasn’t quite as dark as she’d like but it still suited her tastes. It was a nicer environment than her apartment and it wasn’t as lonely.
Cleaning was so bad either, even if she’d never say that out loud. She’d done far worse after all and half expected that human to make an even more unreasonable request. It gave her something to do in this mostly deathless city, and there was always work to be done. Recently she’d been throwing her head up to look at the highest bookshelves, unfortunately the last time she’d thrown it she’d gotten stuck on top.
Her body had looked distressed, as it was want to do, and she’d had to verbally dissuade it from clumsily climbing up the shelves after her. She had been content to wait, her body could either go and collect someone or they’d show up eventually. Which they did! However, she hadn’t been expected the lady of the house.
“... Hello, lass.”
Her body waved enthusiastically. “...Look, as pleasant as it is being up here, could you expediate the process of me getting down.”
