((well, for someone who said they probably wouldn't post today, or tomorrow, two posts in one day is a blessing ^^ Take your time, no rush. I have lots I should be doing... though I'm good at putting things off... and lol at Marvin XD ))<br/><br/>Jezabelle gave a thankless huff of annoyance once she was put on her feet. "Thank you much." Her tone was quite clearly of sarcastic denotation, and barely above a mumble. She let the male lead her in, still playing to get on his good side a bit... though she wasn't well known for that. As he was promptly, and happily almost, welcomed home, she glanced around. The servants and housekeepers seemed happy, well-fed, and, most surprising to her, not in shackles or any kind of chain to keep them from running off. 'These people have gotten so used to this lifestyle that they don't even bother disobeying.' Poor, demented minded Jez couldn't fathom the idea of happiness as a servant. She had been everywhere in chains, with a master at her back with a whip or a chain. And she had scars to prove it. However, none of the servants seemed hurt or even bruised at all. How could this be?<br/><br/>Jezabelle jumped, startled as she heard a loud crash that shocked her back into reality and out of her thoughts. The cause of the ruckus soon appeared, a male with a distinctly whimpering attitude toward Akihiko; or so she had thought he had been called.<span style="font-style: italic">"I'm so sorry, Master Akihiko!"</span>She glanced to the master of the house, wondering what he would do. Would he strike the boy? Punish him for whatever he had done? No. Instead, he merely laughed and sent the sobbing servant on his way to clean up. Again, another shock. If this had occurred with one of her past masters, the slave would have been brutally beaten; even if it was a tiny glass they had broken because one of the master's sons had bumped into them. 'Is he just playing nice for my sake?' She sensed a trick, as her scarred mind wheeled over any possible answers to how this kind of life could have come about.<br/><br/>As Akihiko left her to Alyss, Jezabelle looked shyly at the older female. She listened intently, glancing to each of the others as they were named. She couldn't help but smile a bit at the mention of Marvin; he was quite a strange character, but seemed outwardly clumsy; no doubt she would be busy with cleaning up after him. How annoying.<span style="font-style: italic">"You will also do anything else, Akihiko-sama asks. Which won't be much. Now after you introduce yourself to us here, I'll take you to get bathed and clothed. Also, feed. You look like you haven't eaten in weeks."</span>The young woman looked back at Alyss with a faded smile. "My name is Jezabelle." Her voice was barely loud enough to carry, but she hoped she would be heard.<br/><br/>((this roleplay is fun already ^^ I'm really enjoying this))
