Intro / OTA!

[cant-readmy.livejournal.com]

So this was it. The Deck. The place she'd spent three years hunting down. The last known whereabouts of her parents. The place she was meant to call home.

She hadn't quite made up her mind about it yet. Only been there a few days, after all. So she'd taken the opportunity to explore the place, starting first with the Spades' castle and branching eventually towards The Town. She kept mostly to herself, prodding around at this and that, soaking in as much as she can without actually forcing herself to speak to anyone. Yet.

[ooc: Spades are welcome to find her on Castle grounds, otherwise, she'll be in The Town!]

Serena lets out a faint sigh of disapproval, but feigns a polite smile.

"Mm."

"...on with you, then, Miss."

While, of course, he watches like a hawk. What--doesn't everyone polish with a butler on their shoulder?

[cant-readmy.livejournal.com]

She'll try not to eyeroll as she gets to work, ignoring his careful observation. She does a damn good job of polishing, too, mostly just to spite him but also because she's just that thorough.

[piquedbutler.livejournal.com]

And look--results! Spite and Fear are wonderful motivators, no matter what the other butlers say.

"And the napkins, when you're quite done, Miss Two."

They need to be folded. And he needs to make Tea.

[cant-readmy.livejournal.com]

Spite, maybe. Fear, definitely not. She could totally take him in a fight. Probably would, if he'd allow it.

Hm. She liked that thought. She'll preoccupy herself with it until the silver's done.

"Ah, the napkins. Do they need shining, too?" She lifted her pollshing cloth with a look of mock ignorance.

The pause isn't entirely a Judgement. The pause is because he has, in fact, had Twos handed to him who were That Dumb.

"...I expect folding them will suffice, Miss. Do your best judgement if you find them lackluster in their shine."

Serena doesn't exactly reek stupidity. Quite the opposite, actually. But she's not really trying to impress him at this point.

"Of course," she nodded, bowing her head in a showy sign of respect. Cue inward eyeroll.

[piquedbutler.livejournal.com]

Well. Then she's absolutely succeeding.

"On with you, then, Miss."

This one... this one will need to be Housebroken. Ah well.

[cant-readmy.livejournal.com]

Probably not, with her personality, but he'll find later that she does her job exceedingly well. Almost to the point of obnoxiousness, actually. Mostly because it seems she's doing it to spite him. Maybe.

She shoots him a polite - if not mischievous - smile, bowing once before going on her way.
