Lapis wasn't sure what she expected, truthfully. The only Nobles she'd seen keep their promises was when it was of very mild inconvenience to them. Like giving her a coin or a plate of food. But with the person she offered the flower to... she didn't expect him to eat it, but it would have been the highlight of her day if he did. 

And it seemed she wasn't the only one who wanted to see him eat the flower. The most notable one was a the silver haired girl. She had not only given some information regarding a tradition Lapis never cared to remember, but she'd basically put the Noble on the spot to accept the flower or be seen as awful and rude. Nobles really cared about their reputations and traditions, didn't they? Surely this would make him crack, right?

But no, the Noble chickened out, unfortunately. On top of that, he threw an insult her way to save face. Lapis seemed undisturbed by the insult; in fact, it seemed to have bothered her as much as if he'd called her by her name. Was that really all he had?

[color=a6cbff]”With all that Noble money, you could buy some originality for that insult.”[/color] She said, tossing the flower she had been holding over her shoulder. She looked at him. [color=a6cbff]”But that money would be better spent getting a cleric to take your head out of your ass."[/color]

There was no need for the conversation to continue from there. The Archbishop was calling for them to continue on with the tour and she didn't want to be blamed for them taking all day. She moved along to follow him, remembering what two other people had said. It'd be rude to not acknowledge them, and she didn't want them thinking the Church sent a little shit to the Monastery.

[color=a6cbff]”Thanks by the way.”[/color] She addressed Andrion, feeling a bit of strain in her neck from needing to look up so high. [color=a6cbff]”I might've grabbed a few and made tea if you hadn't said anything.”[/color]

That was a lie. She would have eaten the flower whole if Flower Boy hadn't tried to manipulate her into thinking she was about to eat something delicious. At least [i]someone[/i] was looking out for the lowborn...

Then there was the silver-haired girl. The one who introduced herself so politely and... regal-y. Lapis figured years of Noble training and etiquette crap must be the reason. Parthenia seemed to recognize her from somewhere, and Lapis knew [i]exactly[/i] where. She might not be good with names, but she remembered faces. And she remembered Parthenia's face quite clearly and from where she'd seen it. Fortunately, the same couldn't be said for the Noble herself. Perhaps it was for the best it stayed that way.

[color=a6cbff]”'m Lapis, of Wherever I Sleep That Night.”[/color] She introduced before answering. [color=a6cbff]”Nope. Maybe you're remembering someone else?”[/color]

Lapis had her reasons for lying; one of which being she didn't want to recall the memories. The other one being that Lapis didn't want to associate with Nobility more than she needed to. Nobility has let her down repeatedly in the past. She managed to escape being stuck with two in the caravan on the way here, but now she was stuck with a whole House filled mostly of them. This was supposed to be her [i]team[/i]. People she needed to [i]rely[/i] on. But how the hell could she do that when she couldn't trust a damn word that left their mouths?

Meh. She was doing Parthenia a favor.
