Well this was a right showing alright. Honestly, she found Sherry's distress amusing, if only because previously the girl had been so arrogant it was nice to see her be flustered. The only thing that gave her pause though, was that she didn't remember this happening. Or hearing of something like this happening. Granted, in her past life she was pretty sure this breakfast didn't happen. She didn't attend, at least. Maybe she had been too ill. At least they had peace now-

Ah. Amabilia. In her past life she would have just quietly ignored the woman, or at least try and be civil but now? Yeah, no. She had grown increasingly tired of such people in her past life. The bullying, the gossiping, the utter audacity and contemptable nature they treat everyone else around them. Even if she knew she should stay quiet, she no longer could. If people wanted her to be a pitiful child or a demon of some sort, she'd give them one.

Maybe it'd even be amusing to do it, this life.

[b]"Yes, I am feeling mostly well, mother."[/b] Words spoken in her usual soft voice, but tinged with a bit of uncharacteristic irritation. [b]"Sadly, there's an uninvited harlot squawking like a seagull giving me a migraine. Maybe she should leave before I accidentally mess up her dress from being sick."[/b] Ophelia would continue her breakfast in silence, and should her siblings have any thoughts about her uncharacteristic words, she'd simply give them a little smile and do her best to act dumb.

Otherwise though, hopefully the breakfast would go unimpeded.

She'd remain quiet and mostly taciturn through the trip, and as she'd sit in the stadium she'd merely watch the proceedings with further disinterest. How droll, really. In the past she desperately wanted to be a part of it all. She still did, truly. All she ever wanted to be was a proper Kaides, and even now she desperately wanted to be.

But looking at all this with the eyes of someone who died and went through hell practically alone.

Well...she couldn't help but to find this all pointless showmanship with zero reason for existing. The only thing that even so much as caught her attention, was Isana actually challenging someone. Ophelia's head swiveled towards her as she made the challenge. That was new. Unexpected, but at this point she couldn't really say she was surprised. Things had already deviated slightly, so what was one more?

Might as well throw another wrench in the plans of the previous history as well, and if nothing else she'd perhaps, surprise her sisters. Just as her sisters match would end, instead of merely raising her hand Ophelia would saunter down towards the field making sure she would be the center of attention. And mostly just to make sure she was in fact, heard since she still couldn't really raise her voice without straining.

Paying her sister no mind, Ophelia made her challenge. Perhaps she was feeling petty after breakfast, and maybe it was her years of built up frustration and anger, but she really wanted to get back at least, even a little, at that bitch Amabilia and this was the easiest way to do it. Knock her precious little Sherry down several painful pegs. Could she win? She didn't care if she did, but she was confident.

[b]"I challenge Sherry Naibi Kaides."[/b] Ophelia turned and pointed a slender finger at where she was sitting in the stands.

If Isana's victory caused flabbergasted into silence, the declaration from Ophelia was met with both equal parts laughter from some of the Noble and Elite class, and even more confusion from others.
