[color=a187be]"Hmph, angry are we Fia?"[/color] Livia replied with a small smile. [color=a187be]"I assure you, I did not put you through that with ill intent. Sometimes to get something out of life, you need to do something whether you like it or not. Some of the most worthwhile things one could achieve are ones you suffer for. You just need to be careful not to injure yourself in the process."[/color] Clearing her throat, Livia turned her head back to the water.

[color=a187be]"You want answers, little Fia? Who are you...that answer should be obvious. You are Fia, are you not? And you are my familiar for the moment, however short of a time span that might be."[/color] Livia's smile faded a little, as she turned back to Fia. [color=a187be]"Now, who you [i]were[/i] and what you [i]are[/i] are entirely two different things. You know that humans can not be familiars, correct? So what does that make you, then?"[/color]

As much as Livia would answer the questions, she also would like Fia to work out the answers herself. Nothing in life was simply given, and Livia could - and would if the girl could not find an answer herself within a timely manner, but for now...there was no need for Livia to do such a thing. The girl had a good head on her shoulders, she just needed to use it.

[b]"I-it was nothing."[/b] Cynthia replied. As cold as Mugi was, it was nothing to the maid. Yes, her fingers were a bit numb but it would pass quickly. She had been trained by the best, after all...though it wasn't her first time giving someone a massage in cold weather, admittedly. [b]"It is my job, nothing more nothing less. And there is nothing at all you can do for me."[/b] She huffed. Really, there wasn't. She was just happy to be able to serve and practice her skills. [b]"But...perhaps I could do it again sometime?"[/b]

Cynthia turned her head off to the side, not looking at Mugi directly, as she sank her arms into the water.

Not having anything to do with the woman? That sounded wise, honestly, but...Miren needed to see her. Or at least, speak with her about something. Nothing she wanted to go into too much detail about now, but it was something she wasn't going to change her stance on. Perhaps she should ask the kind Headmistress? She had been most welcoming and did seem quite powerful...but she never wanted to ask because she felt like she'd be imposing upon her when she had already been such a great help.

[color=6ecff6]"I see..."[/color] Miren replied quietly. [color=6ecff6]"She's that bad, huh? She'd probably kill my little bunny buns easily then, heh..."[/color] Miren chuckled in a somewhat defeated manner. Well, at least the food was good and Eith hadn't eaten her yet...maybe she should ask? The hound didn't seem overly violent...nor had seemed to make any mention of eating her at all. [color=6ecff6]"S-so, uhm, Eith..."[/color] She began, a bit nervously. [color=6ecff6]"If you, erm, don't mind me asking...why are you being nice to me? Y-you're not gonna eat me are you?"[/color]

The bunny's ears twitched nervously, dreading the answer and expecting it to be an easy 'yes'.
