	Gripping the pipe between her teeth, Evelina slipped her four fingers into each of her front pockets, letting her thumbs rest along the seams as she gave a curt nod. [color=0072bc]"Precisely my dear. Nothing is as it once was but normal is in the eye of the beholder. As one of my dearest as been noted as stating in the past...[i][color=silver]'What is normal to the spider is chaos to the fly'.[/color][/i] You are just no longer a fly,"[/color] The Dice said, quoting one of her first creations in this world. A woman after her own heart in many ways, especially demeanor. Though Evelina would be looked at as the wild one between the two of them. 

	Her brow quirked in the slightest as she heard a voice call out from just to her right and behind her slightly. Turning on her heels she strode over to the edge of the front porch and peered down the receiving passageway. Spotting the pale skinned woman whom was looking around she gave a smile. [color=0072bc]"Well I dare say, you could have been a Crypt in your previous life,"[/color] she said as she stepped down the receiving tunnel and held out her hand. Taking Andromedas in her own she shook it firmly. [color=0072bc]"Evelina Lucas, delighted to meet you Andromeda. Please, come with me. We are about to start the groups orientation,"[/color] she said in a bright voice as she let go of Andromedas hand. 

	Pulling for her pocket she took a look down at her watch, time was of the essence to her. Not that they [b][i]had[/i][/b] to meet at a particular time but she had wanted to begin by a certain time and once that time was in her mind it was set. If she showed up a second after that she would have considered herself late and she just couldn't have that. Her heels clipped on the front porch as she stepped back onto it and made the short walk across the porch. Taking ahold of the knob, she turned it and pulled the door open sharply as she stepped in without a hint of glancing around, her eyes fixed on the largest man in the room. [color=0072bc]"[sub]1[/sub]Βλέπω ότι έχετε στρογγυλοποιήσει ένα μεγάλο μέρος των νεοφερμένων μας. Χαίρομαι που βλέπετε ότι είστε ακριβείς σήμερα και ότι έχετε βάλει στην ουσία ένα πουκάμισο,"[/color] Evelina quipped as she pulled her pipe from her lips. There was the slightest tug of a smile at the corner of her mouth as she waltz over to the man and looked him over. 

	[color=0072bc]"Oh and Queens Pawn to Queen Three,"[/color] she added before turning around and giving her attention to those that had already made their way into the room. [color=0072bc]"Please, have a seat, it is a sitting room is it not? Sophia has the right idea. Bartholomew, it would be good of you dear to come in. You are lagging behind the others,"[/color] she added as she turned and placed her pipe down on a resting stand on the table next to her. [color=0072bc]"I see that you all have arrived. I do hope that Alicia did well enough in her job to welcome you and get you situated. It was a bit of a rush this morning and I apologize for that. it has been sometime since we welcomed so many Paradoxes in a single day. We normally prefer to stagger out the arrivals but things being as they are, we were not left with much of an option."[/color]

	Tugging at the bottom of her jacket she smoothed it out and laced her fingers in front of her as she faced them, standing there as prim as proper as ever as she spoke in her adopted Yorkshire accent. She found it fitting as she hadn't exactly lived in the United States long enough to reasonably acquire a new sound to her voice. [color=0072bc]"I see some of you have met The Hat. Those of you that haven't please let me introduce you. This is Gilbert Summers, our resident weapons and fighting master. He is one of our fi...,"[/color] Evelina began and then caught herself. There was a quick glance towards Gilbert as she did. It was the first time they had welcomed a group since Drem had been killed. Clearing her throat she continued. [color=0072bc]"Four Emendators. You will meet The Cards and the Watch later on as they are currently preoccupied with planning this evenings events."[/color] She was not sure what Nancy and Gio were up to but she hadn't expected them to be at the little questions and answer meeting. 

	[color=0072bc]"I am The Dice, your resident host. My former title is Lady Evelina Lucas currently but you may call me Eve if you prefer. I wish to welcome you to your new home. I am sure you have many questions but if you would give me a few moments to run down a few things with you, it could possibly answer a great many of those."[/color] Glancing over their new arrivals, Evelina smiled towards them as she waited for everyone to get situated and comfortable. And for Gilbert to exit the room if he so chose to, he knew the welcome message as well as anyone did so she did not hold him to sticking around. She would spend the next hour speaking to them before moving conversation over to the kitchen house so they could eat while she continued. After lunch they would adjourn for them to  meet with him to give them a tour of the grounds. At least that was if he wished to go. If not the schedule could be changed. She was prepared for it. 

	There was a tingle in the back of her mind and Evelinas lips thinned. It was not something that could be put off. [color=0072bc]"We will begin in just a moment,"[/color] she said as she gave Gilbert a knowing look. Reaching into her pocket, she pulled out a single [url=http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/library/deriv/393/393250.jpg]dice[/url] and rolled it around in her fingers. It hit the desk and clicked as it went from side to side, flipping and turning over. Then it stopped and Evelina looked at the results, she swallowed hard as her eyes went back to Gilbert. He would know what the rune on the top of the dice meant. All the Emendators did. Each of them had seen Evelina roll that dice enough to know what it meant when that one popped up. [color=0072bc]"I had high hopes for that one, such a shame..."[/color] Evelina said as she picked up the dice from the table and slipped it back into her pocket. Taking a breath she looked back over to their new arrivals. [color=0072bc]"Now, are you ready for me to begin? Remember, please hold all your questions until the end of the orientation."[/color]

1 - I see you have rounded up a good portion of our newcomers. Glad to see you are being punctual today and that you actually put a shirt on.

	Alicia stopped in her tracks as she heard a voice call out. Glancing over towards the house she waved a bit. [color=ed145b]"[sub]1[/sub]¿Por qué diablos llegaría a eso? Ya he estado allí y he hecho eso. No necesito un puto curso de actualización. A menos que estés repartiendo tamales y salsa picante, ¡estaré en la cocina!"[/color] she called out before starting her run up again and bee lining it for the kitchen house. Alicia had no intention of going and sitting through one of Eves introduction meetings. She had been through that already, and in fact had spent more time than most new Paradoxes going over things because she was the welcoming committee now. Granted after the way things went she could probably do to sit through another and get a few pointers from Eve. Yet she was done with that for now. She was feeling a bit overwhelmed from having to welcome so many so quickly and back to back like she had. She had manged to get through it, no one broke down in front of her, they all had their room keys, and no one had spontaneously combusted so it was a win win in her mind. 

	Jumping up the steps of the Kitchen house she made her way inside and glanced around. Just as she figured, Gilbert hadn't done the dishes, he had left them in the sink soaking. Yeah, they could stay there and come reset time they would poof and be right back where they had been the night before. Yet, she knew what Evelinas plan was and if she walked into the Kitchen House with a sink full of dishes from breakfast with new Paradoxes on the premises... She had never seen the Dice loose her temper but out of all of the Emendators Eve was the one she never wanted see finally lose her shit. That woman was so tightly wound she was half sure that if she ever did finally snap it would be something that would have made even her father, the former Federale, Caesar take a step back from. So, Alicia swallowed her pride and put on the house wife apron that hung on a hook and got to work on doing the dishes. Better dish pan hands than pissing off someone that had control over death.

1 - Why the fuck would I come to that? I have already been there and done that. I don't need a fucking refresher course. Unless you are giving out tamales and hot sauce, I'll be in the kitchen!
