[right]Interacting With [@Hero] & [@Gisk][/right]

Raising her limbs up one by one, Mariette let them fall back onto the bed with an exaggerated [i]thump[/i]. She had stopped midway through unpacking, figuring she could do it any other time. Her stay at the Academy would be lengthy, after all. Now, she was just bored. At first, she had been waiting for Lillie on the couch, having set up a glass of milk and a platter of Ike's cookies for her on the coffee table. Under which, she placed Ike's note, still refraining from reading it despite the itch that she felt whenever she walked past it. Soon after she had settled on the couch, she had lifted herself up from it and wandered into her room. And there she remained, having done everything in the span of about ten minutes. None of this was unusual for her, except for preparing the cookies and milk for her mage. She always had to occupy herself in some way, and when something stopped entertaining her she switched to a new task. Now, though, her mind was occupied with a single thought. Where was Lilie? 

She wanted to wait for her, and make a proper introduction...but she had nothing else to do other than look for her. Picking herself up off of her plush mattress, she went into the bathroom and straightened her hair and clothing. She wasn't necessarily pleased with how she looked, but it would have to do. She considered spraying on some perfume, but she didn't want her mage to think she was trying to hard. On the way out of her dorm, she snatched Ikelos' note up from underneath the platter and started on her way out. Backtracking, she grabbed a cookie, twisting it in her hand and marveling at the golden brown surface. If only she could eat it, and experience what it was like to chew. Taking her items with her, Mariette finally exited the building.

She certainly didn't have to travel far, spotting delicate white hair the instant she stepped into the cul-de-sac. It was pleasing to see that Lilie was sociable, currently interacting with another mage that Mariette didn't know. Clearing her throat to announce her arrival, she neared the two mages. Not wanting to completely disregard the young woman who wasn't Lilie, she smiled kindly at her before turning her attention to her mage and beginning a semi-formal introduction.

I'm Countess Mariette, of the Eve family, and I'll be taking care of you from now on."[/color] She passed Lilie the cookie and Ike's note, not giving her a chance to read it before she began speaking again. [color=DDA0DD]"Those are from your previous caretaker, Count Ikelos."[/color]
