Stanley
*There was a knocking at the door.* "Excuse me," *There was an effeminate voice from outside the door,* "Miss Katerine? Are you inside?"

Betty
_Peeling her face away from a piece of paper after falling asleep, she sat up quickly and yelled out from behind the door, "Come in!" She wiped some fresh spit off the side of her cheek._
Stanley
*The door slowly crept open. Lilliane was dressed in her white attire today, and she peaked her head out from the door, slightly nervous. She waved hello.* "Hey! How's your day been so far?"
Betty
_"Good, did you need anything?" She asked as she looked at the attire and instantly thought to herself 'Wedding?' or something super formal. Going straight to business, she got her ink and pens in order for when the other ball, or request, dropped._
Stanley
"I was told you had jobs available." *She steppes fully in. Spear strapped across her back, she closed the door behind her.* "For secretary positions, and that kinda stuff. Was my source wrong?"
Betty
_She blinked a few times in trying to figure out exactly what she meant and finally came up with the only plausible thing, "Sorry about that .. I am only a scribe. Unsure where you heard that but I don't handle that sort of thing ... And I am unsure where to point you in the right direction. "_
Stanley
"Oh..." *She frowned. She clearly wasn't expecting this answer, considering her information was usually accurate.* "Do you uhh... Need any help?" *She starts walking up to the desk.* "You look pretty nice, by the way."
Betty
_Her hand scribbled across the page with inhuman speed as she looked straight at her, "I am fine, thank you, and .. Uhhh, what?" She tilted her head trying to figure out why the person was getting closer to her desk and complimenting her._
Stanley
*Lilliane nodded her head again. Her plan changed, from getting a job, to getting some brownie points, potentially with a couple drinks later in the night.* "Sorry, sorry. You just uh... Really do look quite pretty." *Lilliane smiles at her.* "Anyone ever tell you that?"
Betty
_"Yes, my mother, can you leave now?" She asked the woman as she went back to her work, "Sorry, I don't like this sort of thing while I am working, or .. At all .." Definitely was not going to get her brownie points it seems._
Stanley
{{ S'all good, just understand that Lilliane isn't gonna back off without a challenge

"Really? You don't like being complimented?" *Lilliane started walking behind the desk, over to where Katerine was.*
Betty
_She sighed and put her pen down, "It really isn't my thing nor is it when people hovering over me when I work," She was growing increasingly irritated._
Stanley
"Sounds like you need a break sometime soon." *She takes a step away. This wasn't getting her anywhere.* "I'm... Sorry, about all that. Really am." *She pauses for a moment.* "Lemme get you a drink when this is over, pay it back to ya."
Betty
_She shook her head, "I don't drink, like my wits about me, thank you for the offer," Without her behind her so close, she could begin her work again, "I just want to get this stuff done."_
Stanley
"How about dinner then?" *Lilliane raises an eyebrow. She was making out to be quite an interesting person, so Lilliane was starting to really get interested in this.* "My treat."
Betty
_"Would rather be alone, thank you," She replied while scribbling somethings on the end of her notes before returning to the accounting form._
Stanley
"You'd rather be alone for dinner? Why's that?" *Lilliane looked around the room for a chair to sit in. This would probably take a while...*
Betty
_She sighed at the overly aggressive woman's antics, "I just like being alone, got lots to do."_
Stanley
"Hence why I said after work." *Lilliane leans against the wall, shrugging.* "Didn't say for us to go right now."
Betty
_She squinted at some numbers and scratched them out in her notes before returning to them, "I am always working."_
Stanley
"You're always working? You never take a break?" *Lilliane frowned. That... Just seemed like slavery to her.*
Betty
_"Gotta keep going all day and night. You know, gotta get money," She replied as she did her documents._
Stanley
"That... Doesn't sound good for your mental health. You... Really need a break." *She walked back up to the desk.* "Or your physical health... How long has it been since you've slept?"
Betty
_"I sleep plenty, just trying to save up for my own stuff," Katerine scribbled a little more before laying down her pen, most of the days work was finally finished._
Stanley
"Yeah, but... Do you do anything in your free time?" *She looks at Katerine in the eyes.* "I mean, the description you gave makes it seem like you spend so much time on work, you're forgetting the social interactions." *Getting an idea, she smiled.* "Finish up for the day, and I'll show you the social aspects around here. No drinks, no nothing, you can go whenever you want. Fair?"
Betty
_"I don't want to go with you anywhere, I don't know you ..." She said firmly._
