"Fantine! Get the dining hall ready for our guests!" She shouted, and immediately headed over to the foyer to greet the two.

The moment she laid her eyes on the rogue, Maria started to smile in a fiendish way, before it turned into the cutesy smile she was accustomed to holding.

[i]Aah, yes. This one is boisterous and arrogant; just the type I wished from my wild card. And if I'm not mistaken, she seems to be a friend to a certain group of "friends" too. Phase 1 is successful. Now, onto Phase 2.[/i]

Maria put on a sweet and compelling voice as she spoke. "Welcome to the Goethe Estate. I am Maria Goethe, the one who has invited you here." She turned around on her wheelchair and headed to the dining hall. "Please, have a seat. Feel free to partake of any delicacies you find on the table. If you would like some tea or soft drinks, just speak the word and I'll have it served, heehee."[/quote]

Fantine bustled around, setting up the dining table, placing small dishes, exquisite teacups, and dessert forks, as well as multi-tiered trays of sweets and pastries.

Eponine entered and upon noticing that Maria hadn't transformed, said, "Lady Maria, I would recommend that you be in your magical girl form for the time being."

"Eponine!" Fantine shouted as she threw herself at her sister in an exuberant hug.  Eponine looked down, showing the faintest of smiles, putting one arm behind Fantine's shoulder and patting her head with the other, while strategically moving so that she placed herself between Fantine and Chloe.  Then Fantine went back to Maria's side to wait for additional orders, so Eponine sat down very straight at the table, standing her hammer next to her seat, and keeping an eye on Chloe.
