{Diva is back again with something particularly large in tow: her closet. At least she took the pavilion back. There's quite literally every type of clothing imaginable, and in a smaller wardrobe with a glass front, even clothes that looks quite old. Those are all her favorites from the past times Diva has been awake. However, Diva has once again come under-dressed. She's shifting through her finer dresses in her undergarments.}

Ne, that's really not fair. Usually my Chevalier tell me in advance before I have to go somewhere! And such a busy day too. Appearances, practice, and then an evening soirée! I really hate days like this. I don't know what I should wear at all...

{She takes a light gown and holds it up to herself in front of a long mirror} And besides all that, now Argiano insists to take me to the American branch for "tests". Terrible. Ne, I might as well pick something nice to wear today, I guess...

[madamemoiselle]

Sorts of things? You mean parties?

[contract_star]

Parties, socializing, meeting people. Those sorts of things.

[madamemoiselle]

Ah, definitely~ Especially in this era. In thirty years, the world got so shallow! I can't go downtown without cameras following me because of my performance. Because it had to be canceled, suddenly I'm...terribly popular.

[contract_star]

You must be quite the celebrity in your world.

[madamemoiselle]

Maybe. My Chevalier wants the whole world to hear my performance, after all, so it's been very...ah...public, I guess.

[contract_star]

Really? Well, that should be nice. You have an amazing voice.

Ah, but...if you don't mind me asking, what did you mean before about "tests?"

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, thank you, Hei. That's really sweet of you.

Ah, with the Cinq Fleches company. {She shrugs slightly, turning her attention back to her clothes} There are a few products that they make that use my blood for part of it. Argiano probably just wants to draw some blood and run some tests.

[contract_star]

[Smiles.]

It's not anything dangerous, is it?

[madamemoiselle]

Well, I hope not. It shouldn't be, anyways!

[contract_star]

Ah, well that's good then. I know you don't like doctors or scientists.

[madamemoiselle]

Which, really, is kind of strange. Amshel is a scientist, Solomon is a doctor, kind of, and I dated a combination of the two a long time ago.

[contract_star]

Well...I think it's one thing to know them personally, and another to know them professionally.

[madamemoiselle]

...I guess. They can be the same for me, sometimes. But it's fine either way! Amshel and Solomon, they're too important for me to hate for a reason like that.

[contract_star]

[Smiles and nods.]

I don't think I've ever actually known a scientist or doctor or anything more than professionally. Whether it's in their job or in mine.

[madamemoiselle]

Well, that doesn't really surprise me. It's kind of new for this time, but before now, women weren't really doctors or scientists. Ne, but if you meant as a friend, then that doesn't matter, but I meant...a bit more romantically, you know?

[contract_star]

Ah, yeah, I understand that. I just mean, I can't ever remember a time I spoke to a scientist when they weren't...well, being a scientist.

[madamemoiselle]

Really? Then you need to meet more people, Hei!

[contract_star]

Heh, maybe you're right.

[madamemoiselle]

Of course I'm right. You should try and go to some parties. They're a good way to meet people.

[contract_star]

Aheh...I'm not really one for parties, though. I don't really have much spare time as it is.

[madamemoiselle]

Well...{Thoughtfully} I don't see why not. Hei would be very popular at the parties I go to, I think.

[contract_star]

R-really? You think so? Ah, but...well, I wouldn't really know how to act around high-society people...

[madamemoiselle]

I do! High-society people, they're still people, you know.

[contract_star]

Well, of course they are, but...there's just so much you have to remember and all...

[madamemoiselle]

Not really. As long as you're polite, it's fine. It's really not so different.
