[color=pink][h3]Lise[/h3][/color] Lise stopped to hear Dmitry's explanation. "[b][color=pink]Though your eagerness to serve is noted, you should know that the servants within House Valois-Saint-Remy have earned their place from generations of service.[/color][/b]" She said, turning back to the boy, "[b][color=pink]However, I suppose I can consider you as a provisional servant, in order to undo these most recent damages. But know that I will dismiss you the moment you no longer provide any use for me.[/color][/b]" Lise turned away once more. "[b][color=pink]Now, I expect you to begin your service by helping my dear cousin. I have to attend to my... wardrobe.[/color][/b]" Lise was trying to stop her face from burning red, but that was of course an impossibility. She had to get off of the street as soon as possible, so she began walking away, hoping for no further interruptions.

Andras was somewhat braced for a push, or perhaps even Diana trying something more devious to get out of her embrace, like stomping on Andras's foot. But instead the witch seemed to loosen up in Andras's arms. If the previous explanation of what had happened with The Fallen One hadn't concerned Andras, [i]this[/i] loss of composure definitely did. But soon the moment passed, as Melanie spoke up again... And smiled? Andras looked bewildered at the change in Melanie. She quickly looked around at everyone else, trying to find an explanation. "[color=orchid][b]Melanie, are you feeling all right...?[/b][/color]"
