Aisling looked to her side as another maid walked up causing the bell around her neck to jingle lightly. The other one nearly crashed into the stairs and Aisling couldn't help but smile though she felt sorry for her.<em>'I'd be so embarrassed..'</em>She thought. But the woman seemed to recover quickly enough.<em>'It's been so long.. so she knows him? Oh that's neat. Maybe she can help me get to learn his preferences better.'</em>Her ears gave a little twitch as she heard more footsteps behind her and she turned a little to take a look.<br/><br/><em>'My goodness! Four of us? Well it is a big house. They all packed things...'</em>The neko felt suddenly as though she were in the wrong not to have, but from her personal experience bringing things on a first meeting had been a mistake. So many times it had just meant extra things to carry when she'd been sent away. It seemed that in certain circles her tails and ears, not to mention her radical hair, just weren't acceptable even as the appearance of a maid.<br/><br/>She gave a nervous smile to the other two, though the nerves came from her not having anything with her, and then his voice drew her attention again,<em>'Well, at least I know he's the Master now..'</em>She thought as he spoke. And then he talked about their rooms and asked after her belongings. The color in her cheeks grew just a little darker, her thoughts raced,<em>'There's any number of good reasons to give, but the truth is.. supposed to be the best.. But saying I don't make presumptions makes the others look presumptuous.. I don't want to do that..'</em><br/><br/>The young maid cleared her throat a little, the ambient noise of her jingling bells sounding as she turned back to Yannick and faced him directly. "I'm.. So sorry, Sir, but in the past I've often found that.. My.. erm.. features have caused employers to send me home without so much as an hour's work. I didn't want to be presumptuous." She stammered a little as she spoke and gave another small curtsy at the end, hoping this minor decision wouldn't turn him off to her, the tail gave a gentle swish when she said features, almost as if to indicate which 'features' she meant. She also hoped her wording would turn her doubts on her the way she intended so the other ladies didn't think she was attacking them.<br/><br/>She wasn't sure if it was the black in her uniform or the heat from cheeks, but suddenly the sun felt much brighter. "I've arranged for them to be brought this evening if you decide to keep me in your employ," she added as she smoothed out her skirt a little and resisted the nervous urge she had to play with her tail.
