Miku narrowed her eyes slightly at Mr. Kayneth. What kind of family details did he want to know? "Fine," she said, sighing in resignation and stepping aside. "But my older brothers don't like me talking to strangers. Claudius is busy but I'll get Ijemaru." Honestly, she didn't want to have to deal with Clau-chan right now, but at least this was a chance to get Ije-chan away from work for a bit. And besides, he'd probably want to control any "family details" that were discussed.<br/><br/>Miku showed Mr. Kayneth a seat and went to Ijemaru's room, knocking once and immediately opening the door. "Ijemaru," she said, causing him to look up from a sheet of paper he'd been writing on and glance at her.<br/><br/>"Miku," he said, a tight smile on his face, "You're supposed to wait until a person bids you entrance before welcoming yourself in."<br/><br/>Miku's face remained blank. She clearly didn't want to hear that right now. "A man who calls himself Mr. Kayneth is here. He wants to discuss family details for security measures or something."<br/><br/>Ijemaru's eyebrows rose at this. "Well I suppose we'd better speak to the man then." He followed Miku into the sitting room and took seats facing Mr. Kayneth.<br/><br/>Ijemaru offered the man a smile. "I do apologize that our father isn't here to speak with you, Mr. Kayneth. I hope you can make to with myself and my brother. What exactly would you like to know?" He wasn't seated in his (in his opinion, far more comfortable) "superior" pose, rather the puppet master was seated in a more normal position for the son of a lord to take. Back straight, and respectable looking, but not quite appearing as... controlling?... as he did in his more natural pose.<br/><br/>Miku found this almost amusing now that she was upset with Ije-chan. She knew he'd be much more comfortable if he were sitting like he usually did, but he was very conscious of appearances. Served him right for focusing on work too much.<br/><br/>-----------------------<br/><br/>Amadeus smiled at Lady Anna. "It's not so much where as when," he smiled. "Originally, myself and my family are from the Orient, Japan if you wish to be specific, but we've been living in Europe for quite some time now. I might guess that our journey was shorter than yours, My Lady," Amadeus said the last part, well aware that Lady Anna hailed from Russia. Quite a long way from the mainland of Europe. Of course that part wasn't quite written in the script, but he was allowed to alter things a bit if the circumstances allowed.<br/><br/>The burst of activity caused Amadeus to turn to the fray. It appeared, someone had been caught trying for the royal princess' life. Seeing punishment like that, Amadeus was glad to have such a competent son. One who was good at not getting them caught by the wrong people.<br/><br/>Lady Anna suggested going somewhere else and Amadeus was about to agree, though he didn't get a chance. The woman lead them both to an empty sitting room and rang the servant bell. The both of them sat down, waiting, not too terribly long, for Lady Anna's servant girl to arrive. She brought with her a few drinks which, though he'd just eaten shortly ago, looked rather tempting. "Why it's almost like you were expecting someone," he said with a slight smile, completely oblivious that that may very well be (and probably was) the case.
