Diplomatic Immunity--Preface: Vasha's Discovery

[Bront]

"Thank you," Vasha says, fighting the draw of the bath. "We should arange my passing for the gate, I have to work again tomorow, I think..."

She blushes "I think I've lost track of time."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Oh, yes. It looks like you'd like a bath, though. Tell you what. I'll take an inventory of what we have right now while you take a bath. Sound good, Vasha?"

 

[Bront]

"That sounds good. Just come back when you find out, ok?"

Vasha slips off her dress and begins to draw up a bath. (And no, she doesn't pay attention if Louteah has left yet or not)

OOC: Is it tomorow, today, what? Vasha is trying to find out when she has to work next.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Certainly. I'll be back soon!"

(OOC: It is later that night)

 

[Bront]

Vasha slips into the bath, a smile crosses her face. It's not a spring, but it's still wonderful. She submerges completly for a moment, to feel the loving embrace of water. She emerges again and pushes her hair back, and then finds a relaxing position, and lets the water flow around her till Louteah returns.

*Louteah knocks on the door and then enters the room.*

"It looks like they don't have anything spare that would fit you, which is just as well, since that means we can get you your very own servants' livery."

 

[Bront]

Vasha opens her eyes and turns to Louteah from the bath, resting her head on the edge. "That sound good. What should I say I do as a servant if anyone asks?"

"Oh, and I'm sorry for asking, but what is a boon companion? The culture here is all so new to me, I feel bad for knowing so little of the people of Arris."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Uh, well, you're a masseuse, right? Say you do that, maybe?"

"A boon companion? Well, it's like a comrade or a cohort, I guess."

 

[Bront]

"Sure, I can do that."

"Ahh, I didn't know if it had any extra cultural significance, like a Soul Sister or something."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"A Soul Sister? What is that?"
