Downed the next glas but this time with a level of decorum almost unexpected from shooting down three fingers of brandy.  She thanked him quietly as he left turning her back to the door and walking to her case.  it was smaller then one might have expected from a lady of her standing, well it really was former standing now but still.  She drew out a night gown and house robe laying them out on the bed neatly before stepping behind the partition to undress frowning she glanced around, she, she just had that feeling of being watche.  it was just that werid tigle dwn her spine.  Annoyed by herself she muttered to herself about foolishness "It's a new place, and I'm away from home f course I'm a bit nervouse, Nelle get a hld of yourself." she said primly, the voice less hers then that of her ever strict governess.<br/><br/>She was certaine the bath would arrive soon, and removing the duced corset was a wave of reliefe, she understood it was proper it hid the wanton figure of a woman, and Noells wn 'objectionable curves' as her gverness has called them.  She sighed running a hand down the front of the light airy chemise she'd worn beneath her gown. Many of her gowns where quiet proper and... spinsterish.  she wouldn't mind something pretty smething suited to a lady, with color or lace beyond... brown... and black... and grey, Goodness how where spinsters ever expected to marry if they wore such uninteresting colors, it was as if sociaty it's self would not see them wed.  How borish.<br/><br/>However she followed the rules because She'd wanted her father in the best standing possible.  it was no lie to her host that her father reaserch could have been very dangerouse,  so she had always been the proper lady, she had squashed anything that wouldn't be veiwed as proper for a woman, determined that if sociaty saw her as a gently bred woman, well educated and soft spoken as a woman should be, with no wilds ideas, then obviously her father was harmless, for his ideas had not effected her while in his house.<br/><br/>"The problem no is your gone Father and I haven't anyiea what to do with myself other then be a governess.. and thats so ... boring." she muttered sitting ont he edge of the bed chin in hand, with out the master of the house around or so she thought) she wasn't so strict with her posture or the demands of being a 'lady'.
