Ne, it seemed like a fine idea. I didn't mind working for someone they asked me to work with, and I thought that at least it wouldn't be a problem, but no, of course not. Arnould Rousseaux--just an angry, bitter old man. A rude, angry and bitter old man.

{Diva is lugging...well, luggage out of her mansion on the Plane. She has recently relocated herself, so instead of paying to have luggage shipped overseas, she did the smart thing and just decided to keep it on the Plane! But now she's taking all of it out of the house so that she can take it back to her reality with her all at once. That's the easiest thing to do, anyways.

The only problem is, she's feeling a bit peckish, so she sits on her suitcase after it's safely out of the mansion.}

It's such a boring little town, though, Verzenay. I know that I said I wanted to live somewhere where I wouldn't be recognized, but I wanted somewhere with its own hospital, at least...But I guess it's good that I'm finally somewhere else. It is really pretty...

{After a pause, she half-whines} Ne, would anyone here mind letting me have some of their blood? I promise I won't take a lot. It's just that taking a plane was a really bad idea after all. I hate flying!

[He doesn't push the issue.]

Sure.

[He smiles and touches her hair.]

Everything's gonna be alright, Diva-san. Believe me.

[Damn him and his random mind reading.]

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

{Diva can't help but smile warmly} Well, if Ikki thinks so, then it has to be! I can only keep hoping.

{Walking inside} It's hard to pick things to take with me, though! I have to have my instruments, at least. I can't live without music, you know?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Definitely. I can't live without my A-Ts either.

[He wonders if he's gonna have to lift a piano.]

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

At least they're smaller than a cello, though. It's just some little things left, though. I thought that if I had all the packed things together in a group, then I could take them all at once.

{Up the stairs and into her bedroom (bow chika wow wow) they go, where there's lots of...stuff just spread around. She had moved her important things to her house after she brought it here, so it's a large assortment of various objects she's collected in her life}

If you can just put them in boxes, that's fine. It's not like they have far to go.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Alrighty. [He grins at her and begins setting things in the first box he sees, careful not to break anything, and using some newspaper to cushion things when he can.] Man, you have a lot of stuff. When I left home, I barely even took an extra pair of underwear. Haha.

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

I know, it's terrible! Ne, but I can't part with anything. These are things that I've kept through my whole life. Well, I guess Amshel kept them for me, but they're still mine.

{She reaches in a jewelry box to pull out a handful of hairclips that are sapphires set in gold} Like these are from when I was pretending to be Anastasia. They're really precious.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki gazes at the hairclips for a long moment, then smiles.]

It must be nice to surround yourself with those kinds of momentos. I really never had the opportunity. [He shrugs.] I got a perfect memory though.

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

I think it is. There was always the possibility that I could forget everything, so I always wanted Amshel to keep little things for me, hoping it would make me remember. But that never happened, luckily.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

That's because I'm impossible to forget~

[He groans as he lifts a box.]

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

Of course! I don't think I could ever forget Ikki. Ne, actually, I was thinking about it, and Ikki is like a little brother, I think.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Heh heh. [He moves the box toward the side and starts filling another one with the same amount of care.] A little brother, huh? I guess I can live with that. You're nothing like my sisters, but that's okay.

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

Oh? Why am I not like your sisters?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki smirks.]

You're ladylike.

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

{She laughs}

My, I bet your sisters wouldn't be happy to hear that! Be careful, Ikki~

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

They wouldn't care. Except maybe Ringo. She's the only one who actually acts like a girl.

[Everything in Diva's room smells pretty, wtf. He makes a face, trying not to sneeze.]

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

Well, then be careful of Ringo! Women don't like it when you call them un-feminine, generally.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

She can't hurt me. She can't catch me~

[madamemoiselle.livejournal.com]

She could be sneaky, though! She doesn't need to be fast to surprise you.
