The air its self seemed tense during the small moments of silence as both struggled during the introduction. Evelyn was having doubts over her place within these halls and the trust put in her and whether her lies could hold over a long period of time. As Alexandra edged around the bed, Evelyn was unsure if she should intervene in some way. Had the girls blindness been recent? Should she ask? She supposed it had to be considering Alexandra was having a difficult time with it. This is your home My lady, you have no obligation to be presentable for me. I am here for you. She gave a quick nod, but quickly spoke up as she remembered such gestures went unnoticed by the girl Yes, right away, I'll help you to your bathing room. Is...there a well where you fetch and boil the water, does one of your other servants do that, or did you need me to do that as well? I apologize my lady, it will take me some time to adapt to life here and to get used to where everything is. At the brothel, the women needed to fetch water from one of the public wells within the city. She imagined it was similar here, but then again this was the first taste she ever had of highborne life. Maybe you'll atleast be able to point us in the right direction? Slowly extending her hand, she allowed her fingertips to brush the back of Alexandra's hand to alert her that she was there and ready to help her out of the bed and act as a leaning post if it was required. Ofcourse my lady, do you have a favorite outfit or dress within your wardrobe? Evelyn attempted to sound cheerful and eager, but there was something melancholy about the girl, which she couldn't blame her, being as youthful as she was and yet so sick. All of this wealth yet no ability to truely enjoy any of it. The plea in the girls voice as she asked not to speak of this moment unnerved her slightly. Evelyn was worried that her own introduction was unbefitting of a woman of her supposed class and status, perhaps she had made a fool of her self, and this girl was a tough judge, or maybe Alexandra was simply embarrassed of her sickly nature. She was too difficult to read. Tea and introductions do sound pleasant my lady, but let's focus on getting you washed up shall we. perhaps some fresh clothes after a hot bath and some warm tea afterwards will perk you right up. She patted her shoulder gently both as a gesture of comfort and a second indication that she was ready to help her up. Lead the way Lady Alexandra--er, I mean tell me where to go and I shall take you there.

Regardless of the fact that the Baron and Baroness selected her for this position, Evelyn felt like a outsider here. Not just due to her being a commoner although that lie worried her greatly. No it was this feeling of intrusion, injecting herself into the life of this girl and her servants, disrupting their routines. She had no clue what she was doing or how daily life even progressed for highbornes, a fact which was sure to out her eventually if she wasn't careful. All she could do was rely on her compassion and empathy to look after this girl the best of her ability. Malnourishment certainly contributed to Evelyns thin build. She never particularly ate too much as good food was hard to come by within the slums of the city. Other escorts used their earnings to keep themselves fed and healthy for their patrons, while Eve tucked away every spare copper, wishing to one day use it for a better life, so the fact that she was here was beyond a dream. There was a light chill in the air this morning, but I suppose a little sun and fresh air could do us both some good, along with the tea ofcourse, maybe a light meal. How is your appetite my lady? You're so pale, maybe you'll be in the mood for eating something after a nice hot bath. She gave her shoulder a light squeeze, while they waited for Martha and another servant, a bit younger than Martha, carting in several buckets of scalding water to dump into the bronze bathtub. Evelyn felt eyes on her again before the servants left which made her feel uncomfortable. Was it as Alexandra said, the woman merely held a distaste more strangers and those she didn't hire or train herself? How come one of them, or even Martha didn't simply become your caretaker? I'm honored for the privilege ofcourse to be at your aid, but why not someone who had already been trusted and loyal? Eve hoped the answer wasn't something obvious like being a matter of birth and status, it'd only had to her anxiety over her lies. As the steam filled the room, Eve gently patted Alexandra's arms, signalling her to raise them so she could slip her nightgown up and over her head after having placed her blue dress and under garments upon the mannequin. Alright, hopefully it's not too hot. She dipped a finger into the water to check to ensure the girl wasn't burned. it was hot as expected but not harmfully so. Lean on me, I'll guide you in dear. She braced herself for the girls weight again, directing her to the step next to the bronzen tub. Up and in, simple. She added in a joyful, upbeat tone.

Evelyn was surprised with how clingy the girl was with her. She had anticipated resistance or bratty behavior. Perhaps it was due to her assumption that she was dealing with a wealthy, entitled girl, when the fact was, she was dealing with someone who was sick and alone. She didn't mind ofcourse, in fact, it was rather nice to feel needed in a capacity that went beyond sexual desire. Right, ofcourse, even in sickness you have your responsibilities, I imagined this was likely the reason. I am fully capable in assisting you with those duties as well. Evelyn bit her lower lip anxiously which had thankfully gone unseen. Ofcourse she'd be expected to assist in such affairs, by the goddess how daft was she to get herself in this mess. She didn't think about the whole picture, just about how lovely it would be to live in a lavish manor, so what if she was assisting some sick noble girl, simple enough right? Very wrong. Evelyn was incapable of writing, even reading was a challenge for her, being of lowborn birth as she was. Alexandra was blind so ofcourse the baron an baroness wanted someone of noble birth to be her eyes and assist in penning her letters. How long would it take before she was discovered to be a liar? Could she find a way around it? Her head swam anxiously in a flurry of dread before she was pulled back to reality by Alexandra's protests as she assisted her into the tub. Huh? Oh--I didnt say you were a baby dear. She sighed, attempting to push her worries away for now. It's alright my lady, I understand your frustration, I suppose all you want to do is do this on your own and your sickness makes that difficult. I have no desire to treat you like a muling infant, I just want to assist the best I can. She gave a soft defeated sigh, still attempting to push down the bubbling dread within her that would eventually boil over the moment she had to read or write something for Lady Alexandra. Silence fell over them both as she dove into her own thoughts, allowing the girl to soak peacefully for a moment. Alexandra's nudity didn't bother her, as she was quite used to the nudity of others, infact it was refreshing to only be expected bathe and clothe the person she was working for rather than the list of other less dignifying things she was used to. Hm? She perked up as Alexandra took her hand, smiling briefly, all of her worries melting away for a moment. It's alright. She squeezed her hand gently, keeping a firm hold on it, while reaching over with her other hand to run her fingers through the girls locks Your hair is quite pretty. I'll wash it before you get out, but for the moment, you may as well enjoy the soothing warmth. She paused again, but spoke up again shortly after, recalling what she said about it feeling dark and scary, her heart strings tugging painfully at that rather sad statement. What shall we talk about? her tone more cheery and upbeat, albeit a bit forced. What was it you enjoyed doing, or still enjoy doing, or wish to do again? I can keep it in mind for the future. Anything that interested you outside your responsibilities as you become a Lady of your house? Any dreams?

As Alexandra mentioned her preference for reading, another jolt of unease surged through her chest. She wanted to say something comforting, like offering to read to her, but it would only compromise her situation further. Would the girl demand her exile from the estate immediately upon discovering she can't read? From then it wouldn't take long to realize she was a peasant, or even more, a common whore. What kind of things do I enjoy? Oh well... She gave her hand another gentle squeeze while her other continued to run through the girls hair, occasionally reaching into the water to bring a handful of water to the top of her head, gently dampening her golden locks. When I lived in the city for a time, i enjoyed walking through the streets, taking in the sights, the smells. Overlooking all the many vendors within the market, the trinkets, or the food.Sometimes, I would observe the many different people around me and Imagine what their life was like and how it differed from mine. Did they where strange clothes? Perhaps they went on extravagant adventures! She laughed softly. I doubt I was ever close to what they actually were like, but it was a fun game. Evelyn paused, wondering if her pass time would give her away as a commoner? Surely the wealthy amused themselves in such fanciful ways? I'm going to let go of your hand for but a moment to fetch soaps and oils. She let go and quickly turned around to search the cupboard for the lavender and oils. It was not uncommon for her to use similar things in her own hair as such were often gifts from wealthy patrons who wanted their whores to smell perfect. I'm here. She whispered, before tapping the girls shoulder while drizzling a slight bit of oil into her hair, the fingers of her right hand combing through the tangles until all of her curls were coated in a light sheen. Your position sounds stressful. She muttered as she continued to work the oil softly into her hair. To have so much expected upon you while your world is falling apart at the seams....poor thing. Time to rinse. Cupping he rhands together, she proceeded to dump the water upon Alexandra's head, then switched to some lavender soap, repeating the process of kneading the girls hair. It's Not that...I mean, I am sure you don't want pity, but I can't imagine what you're going through, which is why I'm here ofcourse. I hope you can come to depend on my Lady Alexandra, I want to help the best I can.

The girl was sweet, and a true joy to be around, which was not what she had expected at all. There was a melancholy aura about her to be sure, but she enjoyed her company and looked forward to getting to know her better. Was this what it was like to assist and aid someone in a non sexual manner? Despite Alexandra being her superior to some extent, there was no apparent inequality of power. When with her patrons, she was often left in vulnerable and compromising positions, eager to keep them pleased or face varying levels of consequences, here it was quaint, peaceful even. Her fingers expertly continued to massage the girls scalp, working the aromatic lavender into her hair as they spoke, yet Evelyns initial flinch seemed to give away that she had said something wrong, and suddenly the girls hands had swatted her away in protest, at once Eve knew she made a mistake in her choice of words. She wished she could better relate to her. Speak of her terrible living conditions growing up, being homeless or mention something real within her life to show that Alexandra wasn't alone, that she understood such pity was unwanted, and yet to speak of such a truth would have even more dire consequences. I--I'm sorry, I misspoke--p-please my lady, do sit, don't get up. She sputtered anxiously as the water splashed up to the edges of the tub, splashing her chest and lap, gingerly she reached out to touch her arm, but not to grab her in a way that seemed like she was restraining her, only to show that she was still there. We all need to throw tantrums once in a while. The world is unfair, you know it, I know it. We can only do our best to fight against it and show we're stronger-better than and it won't keep us down. An empty, quiet laugh left her lips followed by a sigh of relief once it seemed Alexandra had calmed. Forgive me, what I said was crude and unintended. May I continue? You have beautiful hair. She added hoping a compliment would slightly raise her spirits. About what you were saying before my blunder, about deciding not to forget our first impression. I like that. Why don't we accept that sometimes we may not have our best moments, but for what ever they were, they happened and are a part of us. We can both embarrass ourselves and accept it and hopefully accept eachother as we spend more time together. She smiled, but then gently carressed the girls cheek with her thumb to complete the gesture, knowing the smile would go unseen. let's finish getting you washed up, So we can have that tea and perhaps continue to make fools of ourselves. She said with a light chuckle, hoping it was enough to ease the tension.

Alexandra was abashed, feeling tiny and insignificant in that enormous bathtub, so as Evelyn touched her arm, kept the contact and complimented her, it felt right, warmer than the hot water itself. Yes... continue... was all she managed to say without her voice breaking, keeping composure. She may have made a fool of herself, but even if she had been in turmoil those past days, often crying herself to sleep, she wasn't going to shed tears in front of Lady Rosewind, no matter what it took. Evelyn's gentle touch allowed Alexandra to focus on it, how she treated her hair, and it felt calming down. It wasn't exactly a motherly touch, even if it was tender, nor was it the attention of a servant, as it felt volitional, it was... something else, perhaps friendly. Ah- once again Evelyn's touch surprised Alexandra. Not that it was a bad thing, even less when she had asked for it herself, but that caress on her face was something unexpected, an intimate gesture Alexandra wasn't accustomed to. Her parents may be loving, but the manners on the province were somewhat crude, rough. And the service? No, the service would never touch her like that. Not even Martha, that had known her for all her life, as she was a stern example of the women of the region, motherly but tough, not prone to that kind of gesture. Alexandra reached for Evelyn's hand, wet and warm with the bathwater, and took it until she was kind of cupping Alexandra's face as she leaned into it. Thank you the girl mumbled, hiding her shiny blue eyes, not as she could look at Evelyn, but as she felt embarrassed by the accepting gesture and how she hungered for precisely that. Yes, lets finish with this before the water gets cold Alexandra nodded, liking the ease that Evelyn showed in her manners, not at all the stuffy lady she had feared could Evelyn have been. Her accent was a close one, and yet she conducted like she belonged to a warmer, happier place. Alexandra couldn't manage a laugh, but Evelyn's easygoing chuckle made her smile. I didn't... I didn't tell all the truth earlier she confessed, sounding embarrassed. When you asked about what I wanted to do? she explained, letting Evelyn take care of her in the meantime. I don't know all that it's needed to rule, as I lack practical experience, but the books in here can't teach me anymore she added. I don't know if it's possible, but I'd love to learn to play something, to make music she revealed, covering her face with her hands for a moment. It may sound silly, and perhaps it's not possible but... she mumbled, revealing another part of herself. Perhaps there is a way? she wondered hopeful. Minstrels and troubadours passed through Ravenwood from time to time, and Alexandra always was delighted with not only their tales of places far from her own, but mostly the music they could make. Maybe it was something that a lady shouldn't do, she didn't know that much, so she waited for Evelyn's reaction with baited breath.

Alexandra was getting more and more accustomed to Evelyn's gentle attention, her tender touch on everything she did, growing fond of her guiding hands. Her presence, not only in voice but in body, gave Alexandra guidance and company, helping her not feel alone in the dark. The walk through the house was slow, paced to not only fit her blindness as she was unsure of how to proceed, but also her weakened state and dependence of Lady Rosewind. Despite what she had said earlier, it seemed to Alexandra that Evelyn was managing Martha's character just fine, although she didn't know what the veteran woman thought of Evelyn as she usually didn't share her opinion unless asked. Alexandra only hoped that they would have no problem working with each other, as that would cause her trouble as head of the house. Head of the house. Just the idea seemed baffling, utterly nonsensical, and yet, Alexandra couldn't help but feel a bit at ease with it, if not eager to tackle it. It was partly thanks to that newfound courage Evelyn instilled on her, but there was also that uncertainty underlying it, that tension. The sooner she faced her duties as Lady Ravenwood the earlier she'd know what it entailed and if she was capable, blindness or not. Evelyn's acceptance of her inadequacies, her mistakes, made Alexandra feel a bit warmer, comfortable. Of course you are, I didn't think of that Alexandra realized out loud, it was normal for Evelyn to be hungry after her travel, even if she didn't quite know where Lady Rosewind was coming from. Anything you may need or want, just ask Martha she added, keeping her slow march along the house, taking the small pauses in stride, without throwing a tantrum over her perceived weakness. The sun... Alexandra muttered, as Evelyn walked her outside, informing her of the table setup. I can feel it in my face she added with a note of wonder in her voice. She may not see the grass shine under the light, or what kind of sweets had Martha deemed proper for the moment, but that warmth on her face brightened her mood, as the sunlight reflected on her glassy blue eyes. I'm fine but... Alexandra commented, shifting a bit nervous on her seat after Evelyn had helped her. I can't quite... I mean, perhaps with training... she blushed. I know I said I wasn't a little baby before but... it was clear that Alexandra was embarrassed, not being able to finish one single sentence without skipping to another. If you could sit next to me, I'd be thankful Alexandra said, managing to recover her composure. I'll need help with the food she finally blurted. She wanted to eat by herself, but unless she used her hands instead of the cutlery, she had no way of even having a clue of what she was eating or if she had finished her plate, not to mention wanting to avoid soiling her dress like an infant. She wanted to get going with the food and tea, she wanted to talk with Evelyn, so many questions to ask... but for now, she waited until they were going with the sweets and tea, hoping that she didn't look too embarrassed in the eyes of Lady Rosewind.

Relief flooded through her when Alexandra admitted she could tell why her parents chose her. Suddenly, any doubt she had about her place here had been lifted, or about the ideas she was voicing. She may not have had all the appropriate training that went into being a prim and proper lady, but maybe right now Alexandra needed less of that, after all she was no longer leading a life of the most privileged, she was facing hardships more common with the peasant folk. Illness, weakness and the like. I will try my best to continue to speak my mind then my lady, which I have no problem with. you're an absolute joy to talk to. Her lips spread wide as the girl insisted she eat as much as she like. It was a strange thing to have that option for the first time in her life, but it felt bittersweet. It wasn't just the lie, but the thought that the other escorts she left behind were still forced to endure while she got a taste of the high life for seemingly nothing. They all do lo--smell wonderful. She quickly corrected herself, wishing to refrain from such statements. She'd be happy to describe things in detail, but she never wanted to make alexandra jealous or mournful of her lost sight. Unable to resist, she picked up a strawberry and brought it to her lips, taking a small bright. mmm--oh! She gasped as she was met with the sweet, fresh flavor of the small red berry. It tastes wonderful. It was then she took notice of Alexandra's hesitance to use her fingers, whether it was her inability to shed the etiquette that had been likely ingrained in her since birth, or the difficulty of relearning simple tasks most people took for granted, she wasn't sure, but she quickly set down the half eaten strawberry to return her focus on the sickly girl. Here. She said gently, as she reached out to tear a chunk of the sweet cake with her fingers before lifting it toward Alexandra's lips, brushing it gently against them to make her aware of its presence. I'm here to help you. If you have no appetite, it's fine, say so and I'll put it down, and we can drink our tea and continue our pleasant conversation, but take a bite if you wish. No shame in it, I'm merely assisting, and I don't mind, honest. In order to distract her from what could seem like an embarrassing moment and to distract her from what could possibly be a compromising moment, she continued to make conversation as she held up the food, her other arm, still draped around her. Tea, sweet food and music. We shall try to make this a daily ritual if we can, something to look forward to yes? I know you'll have your responsibilities and I'll be with you for that too, but let's fill our days with wonder and joy. I like seeing you smile, it looks good on you. So what other rare interests do you have that we can explore or discuss?
