[Finished] It's Over

[Nathalia]

Lysaras watched, unconcerned, as the rat made a rather graceful shift to his Bipedal form. It really only bothered her to watch people become Human, everything else was just watching fur slide around...but watching someone's face crunch into the Human shape...it was disconcerting.

She smiled and nodded to let him know she was untroubled, resting her hands in her lap. "Yes, of course you may bring your Bander, I just ask that you keep it leashed in public...I'd rather not have any incidents...if you understand my meaning." She smiled fondly. "Ah yes, you scent my Merlin, I'm hoping that he'll be a good friend to my child someday...he's a rather good example of a Bander gone too-sweet."

She grinned at him. reaching across the table to hand him a small silver key. "Here is the key to your room, as well as your palace pass, if anyone troubles you, please either report the incident, or show them this, nine times out of ten, seeing that you live here will silence dissenters."

She shook her head at his statement about his Realm. "It is less the fact that I disapprove of your Realm, than the fact that I approve of a clean appearance for Court, I do not want you to appear as anything other than what you are, I would simply appreciate a cleaner version of yourself." She smiled, the last bit having been an obvious jest in good fun. She wanted him to know that she didn't mind his Realm.

As she might of already guessed, he wasn't really one for common decency, or rather he wasn't one to be affected by it. In fact he wasn't really one for decency at all, but she was a Queen, she was being kind to him and she had formed her reprimand as more of a... request so this drove him to -try- and honor her request to some small degree. However, he'd been lucky enough that she wasn't bothered by public shifting as some were, especially once one ran higher up the rank ladder it seemed.

At the mention of leashing his bander a wicked little grin tugged at the corners of that charming smile that had already placed it's self on his muzzle. Actually it was more of the thought of NOT leashing his prized companion... let her servants scoff at him then with an angry ball of fur and muscle... and teeth hot on their heels. It was almost enough to make the rodent chuckle but he cleared his throat instead, biting back the laughter for later.

Oh... It'd be rather insane for me not to... Sezja isn't exactly... a nice boy. He likes me and besides that... well let's just say anyone else should respect him as they would an un-domesticated one. He listened to her speak of her, apparently, sugar coated bander with mild amusement, he wasn't aware of that trait in them, then again most tales of bandersnatches were not the kind sort anyhow. Hopefully Merlin is calm enough to ignore the presence of one who is not And with this he let that chuckle escape, finding this a more.. .appropriate time to do so.

Rounded auditories twitched as he watched her slide the key across the table and he listened to her instructions carefully, filing them away in the archives of his own memory and nodded to her as she continued on another subject.

The fact that you let me enter your court and not push me into a kitchen or stable position proves that well enough, and really, into your court at all. Her joke was almost taken the wrong way, as, at first, he thought she was making a point about his eyes, something he'd no control over and which he was quite self conscience about, but her tone managed to take the edge off and keep him somewhat placated.

And then came a subject change.

I do have a question for you though my lady... might you have any fresh bandages available? This was my last one and it's gotten rather... well... disgusting. Beyond that I must thank you for your kindness.

"Merlin will be perfectly fine, he has been trained to heel on a lead, and to stay in one of three room s unless on said lead."

She smiled and shook her head at his next statement. "Never, you are quite obviously above work such as that, and I see no reason to place you in a position where your talents will be wasted. We try to place people accurately according to their use in the job, not their status."

She nodded again and stood at his next statement, rising gracefully from her seat.

"I suppose now is a good time then, please bring your key and follow me, I'll show you to your quarters. I'll have servants deliver fresh bandages to you shortly afterward."

She moved back out into the corridor, not checking to see f the rat was following and began to ascend the staircase. She showed no exhaustion as she climber five flights, her face remaining calm and serene. On the fifth floor, she left the stairs and moved down the hallway, finally stopping at room number 512.

"This will be your room as long as you have that key, it will also serve as a pass for this court, as I mentioned. Many keep them on chains about their necks."

She pushed open the door.

"I hope the room is to your liking, Osias."

The room was large, containing a thick maple work desk, a bathroom, and a bedroom. All well furnished and decorated. Lysaras, however, bypassed all of this and gestured him over to the side wall behind the bathroom door. She put a gloved finger to her lips and gently lifted a piece of siding. The wall clicked softly, and slid backward revealing a set of stone stairs.

"These lead straight to the kitchen exit, some of my other....industrious assistants have made use of this exit in the past, may it assist you as well."
