A Little Bit of Dirt Never Hurt [KatherinWinter & upscalerat]

"Yes, sir," Ameline said, and bowed. She looked at the prince for a moment more, then hurried to the adjacent room to fill the tub. The castle had a clever system that allowed for a pump directly in the prince's bathroom, so the maid could easily fill it. She started a fire in the pit under the tub and pumped water it, and only extinguished it when the tub was full. The water was steaming, and likely close to boiling, at that point.

Ameline returned to the prince's room of bed. "Master, your bath is ready. The water is quite warm," she warned, and the went to his closet. Ameline was different now: no feeling, all seriousness. She was a woman with a task to do, and set out to do it, inspecting the garments in Prince Zack's closet as he bathed. It was tough to select his finest clothing, but eventually she settled on an outfit laced with gold, of red and violet silks, and bearing the family's crest on a brooch that attached a rather regal looking cape around his neck.

Ameline shook her head. "No, sir, I'm not hurt," she assured. Her hand floated in place, and then dropped back down to her side. Then the maid looked at the window- it was early, but already light. She cleared her throat. "Master, we ought to start preparing for your day. Shall I go draw you a bath?"

"I won't leave, master," Ameline promised, but continued to get dressed. Once she was clothed, the maid returned to the bed and took the prince's- her prince's- hand. "I won't go. But I shall draw you a bath, should you like." She cleared her throat. "You do, after all, sir, have an important guest to meet, today." She tried to sound neutral as she said it, but even Ameline could hear the disappointment in her own voice. Internally, she chastised herself, but verbally, the maid made no corrections.

Ameline lay close to her sleeping master. Already, some sort of feeling was twinging in her chest; she felt almost as if she'd taken advantage of Prince Zack, even though it had been at his instruction. She wondered what he would think, come morning- would he remember? Should she even stay in the bed for the rest of the night? But sleep took her before she could ponder the questions too far.

In the morning, Ameline rose before the prince. She turned and looked at him, and remembered their night. Still not sure how to feel, the maid carefully removed herself from her prince's armms, and started to dress herself with her clothes from the floor.

Ahh, right. I'll go edit the end of the post for the fade, can you pick up on the after?

Mm, fair enough, I understand. Thought it wouldn't hurt to ask, though. c:

EDIT: Glenn's up!

Ameline blushed. She could have said something- but that could also risk this opportunity. The maid chastised herself for thinking of it as such, but didn't attempt to reword her thoughts. Instead, she kissed the prince and pulled away from his grasp. "Yes, master," she said, but instead turned to the door, went to it, and shut the doors. Then, Ameline turned around, and began her task. First, she undid the headband, and let it drop to the floor, and then removed her slippers. Slowly, Ameline made her way over to wear the prince stood, and stripped as she went. The apron, and then the dress, and- cheeks still pink- untied and slipped off her corset, her stockings, and finally, her under clothing. She stood now, naked and smooth-skinned, in front of her master, and enjoyed the night.

Afraid that she may have insulted the prince, Ameline spoke quickly. "I am sorry- I didn't mean to offend, master, but-" she stopped, and he spoke again. The maid risked it, and looked up at the prince on the bed. "No, master, you've not," she said, but more quietly than she was speaking before. 'He's drunk,' Ameline told herself. 'I don't care,' she also reminded herself.

Ah, fantastic! Thanks!

Tanya

"If it's not worth the worst case scenario- well, do it anyways.”

Personal Information

---

Name: Tanya May Greenfield

Nickname: --

Age: 19 years old

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Appearance

---

Description of Appearance: Tanya has a lean build. Though she is a roughly average height, a bit on the taller side at 5'7", she gives off the impression of being very long. When she was growing, she was a child that could be described as comprised up entirely of limbs. Though Tanya evened out over the years, the general impression is still a lot of limbs. The girl, Italian by blood some generations back, has tanned skin, straight brown hair to her breasts, and green eyes.

Style: Typically, Tanya wears jeans or shorts, unless the situation calls for a different set of clothing.

Disposition

---

Likes: Tanya is a huge fan of animal kind in general; they are closely involved in what she would like to do for a living. Tanya also appreciates a thrill and a rush- a bit of an adrenaline junkie, if you will. She loves trying out new things; food, people, places, activities, anything. Tanya's other major like would be soccer. She's played as long as she can remember, and probably longer.

Dislikes: Being a rather curious person, Tanya hates not knowing things. (She also hates being tested on what she knows, but then again, don't most people?) She hates coincidences, because they make her question what she does know. She hates being tricked, or lied to, and finding out about it later- Tanya feels like she should do better than that. And, unless she's asleep she hates staying too still for too long.

Personality: If asked, Tanya would sum herself up as adventurous, which is rather true. The young woman is a very curious one, and has disregarded all warnings concerning cats and curiosity: Tanya is full-steam ahead, an adventurer. She is the person who goes and explores buildings of questionable structure simply because they're there, and they look cool. Tanya is the one who goes left where the map says go straight, if only to find out what's down the other path. Typically, Tanya is also very cheery. She's easy to laugh, and even crack a few jokes of her own. She gets along with people well enough, she's nice enough, she's the "pleasure to have in class" that all teachers rave about so many of their students. That being said, Tanya isn't exactly a martyr. She's a person who considers all of the options, briefly enough, and when presented with a problem, searches for the solution that is the most agreeable. Partly because of this, and partly because she's not exactly a leader, Tanya ends up making an excellent manager, even if only in small tasks.

Fears: While she is more or less fearless, Tanya does have an incredible fear of being deprived of a sense- particularly sight. While the dark itself doesn't scare Tanya, pitch blackness, complete silence, and just general absolute absences of sensory information terrify Tanya.

Past

History:
Tanya was a first, and ultimately only, child, to Daniel and Susan Greenfield. Daniel made a great father. And while Tanya is sure that Susan would have been a fantastic mother- after all, she managed the pregnancy and the birth pretty well, along with the first couple years of life- the young woman can't particularly remember her mother. A car accident when Tanya was very, very young prevented that. Luckily, the child was young enough that she doesn't remember. All that concerns her is that her father was an excellent one.
Throughout school, Tanya wasn't particularly remarkable. She maintained As and then, in high school, Bs were mixed in. It didn't stop her from getting into her state's university, where Tanya is currently studying to work with animals. She would like to start a business in training service animals, and is currently majoring in business, with some studies to relevant work in psychology. Her passion comes from the help that she'd seen animals do throughout her town, and how much her own dog had helped her out when things got stressful in her public schooling.
The only other particularly noteworthy mention of Tanya's history is her sports; from a very young age, Tanya played soccer. She's always stuck with it. The sport is a passion for her. And while she will casually enjoy some (American) football or basketball during the year with her friends, the girl has never played another sport officially except for in her school's gym.
Overall, Tanya lead a very standard, suburban lifestyle. School, sports, throw in some community service, rinse and repeat until she made it to college, where she has just started her sophomore year.

Glenn

"Let's be practical, now, it usually works.”

Personal Information
[---]
Name: Glenn Michael Gressen

Nickname: --

Age: 20 years old

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Appearance
[---]
Description of Appearance: Glenn is a thin person, almost too thin. He's on the shorter side, 5'5", and still slouches, which makes him seem even shorter and smaller. The blond, grey eyed guy has messy hair, and pale skin. Due to his overall lightness in color, Glenn gives off the impression of being older than he actually is; and, with an easy manner and frequent smiles, smile lines don't help give off the impression that he's only 20.

Style: Generally, Glenn wears very casual clothing. He currently lives in a colder climate, and so typically wears long sleeved shirts of thicker material and jeans. Sometimes sweaters are involved in his typical wear. Naturally, Glenn will also dress up, should the occasion call for it.

Disposition
[---]
Likes: Glenn prefers quiet to loudness, and few or no people to many. Glenn prefers simplicity, though also enjoys puzzles and mental challenges, if only recreationally. Glenn also appreciates knowing what he's getting into. While Glenn doesn't have anything against new things, he does have an aversion to breaking from his norms. Glenn also appreciates the arts, and plays the viola.

Dislikes: In relative alignment with his likes, Glenn doesn't like loud noises- or particularly sudden ones, at that- and large crowds of people. He dislikes unnecessary complexities (so expect no joy of soap operas) and isn't a fan of surprises. However, Glenn really is an easy going guy, and doesn't dislike a whole lot, apart from the same things that most people find annoying and the afore mentioned.

Personality: Glenn is a quiet person. Hes very laid back and easy going, but also the generous sort. Glenn will place his trust and give to just about anyone, even strangers, until they do something to not earn it any more, as Glenn defines it. He isn't a very forgiving person and, while he isn't aggressive, he also will hold passive grudges for a very, very long periods of time. Glenn is a safety advocate for the most part; he does smoke on occasion, though not regularly, but he's also the sort of person to be CPR certified, just to be prepared, even though he has never had any experience that would have required a CPR licence. Glenn is just a prepared sort of person.

Fears: Glenn's biggest fear would be being useless. He feels like he should be responsible for something at all times.

Past
[---]
History:
Glenn lead an unremarkable life. He was a middle child of three and, as a result, ended up having more freedom than his siblings. His younger sister was doted upon for being both the youngest and the only girl, and his older brother was tasked with the responsibilities of his siblings. And because Glenn was a good child, got good grades, never got in trouble, he had a lot of freedom. And Glenn grew up in this way, if quietly. He went to public school, and college in the north.
Glenn's school experience wasn't much of anything to brag about. He had a few close friends and, from his parent's suggestion but later on his own volition, Glenn started playing viola in elementary school, and never really stopped. He followed the standard track to get into college, and is currently an undergrad junior. Glenn never really could decide what his major ought to be. His most resent decision was to be a viola instructor before he went into the coma one night.

A Little Bit of Dirt Never Hurt [KatherinWinter & upscalerat]

Much as Ameline would have liked to answer 'just don't', it wasn't the most apt advice. Particularly in this situation. Particularly from his personal maid. Particularly from someone who would like to be in the bride-to-be's position. "Master, I am certain that your wife will like you, as a person." Then, the maid flushed. "And, if I may be so bold, sir, well..." The wine was strong, and Ameline hoped that it would prevent a whipping if she talking any further out of place, and would prevent the prince from remembering her words in the morning. "Well, yours certainly wouldn't be the first marriage maintained with lovers not part of the church's union, master."
