Workin 9-5 for the MAN

Who: Hattie, Ella, and Open
When: Friday 12/14 to Friday 12/21
Where: Uzushio Ryokan
Summary: An average day at work turns not so average when Hattie stops by for a day at the Uzushio both before and after being evicted from Ella's house.
Notes: First two threads are reserved for the two days Hattie visits Uzushio, but there will be an open thread for anyone else who wants to pop in.
Prose/Action: Will match~!

The Uzushio, while not really the typeof place Ella would have seen herself working (but really, she hadn't counted on having to find a place to work at all since returning to this land), wasn't really so bad. Her coworkers were easy to get along with, the employers were just as pleasant (if huge trolls - and not the literal kind), and even the clientele hadn't been causing any trouble. The work was simple but satsifying, and gave her plenty of time to coordinate things outside of work, such as the donation drives, and think in general.
All in all it was a pretty good day.
She would have reason enough to reevaluate that 'good' part of that thought in due time.

Hattie looks very proud of herself, needless to say, she's positively glowing to Ella's initial reaction. She's only slightly, very slightly put off by the lack of congratulations, or apology, but should she really be surprised at this point?

After that, she gives a fluttering laugh, "What? Best friends? Don't flatter yourself, Ella, you're a loooong way from that position. We are, however, family." she smiles cattily, clearly up to something. "Or are you suggesting, perhaps, that being the only related people upon this Port is an act? That you don't believe it?"

"When I first arrived at the port, you treated me like family. Now you're making it quite difficult to return the favor. Are you scared of me?" Bend to her will, Ella, bennnnnnnnnnd!

"Are you still going on about that when you know you ruined my skin? You got your revenge, and you expect me to what? Apologize?" Hattie gives an amused snort, "Why would I bother doing that? You wouldn't accept it even if I did, right? So not only are you stubborn and unladylike, you're also selfish. I never understood why people like you so much."

"I think you are scared," Hattie then says, crossing her arms as her voice gets softer, "You've been avoiding me at every turn, after all. You're scared to death that I might actually be different."

Hattie's eyes glimmer for a moment. "What? Of course I would! I would shove it in your face, yes, but I'd still accept it~." but that glimmering is brought to a stop when Ella laughs in her face. Just.. Just.. Man! Her cheeks burn red, and of course looks offended by it. What was so funny??

"..." Her eyes narrow for a moment, though she's also a bit disappointed with herself, as she was certain she had been backing Ella into a corner. Slippery little worm. "Well then you're either legally blind or expecting far too much. Or both."

Her expression then brightens at the mention of her fiancee', "I do! It's sort of like an arranged marriage, really, all sorts of bothersome politics.. But he's really handsome!"

"Unfaithful?" Hattie replies, "I could see why you'd say that, but what happens here and what happens at home doesn't make the slightest bit of difference in the end. I've returned home once, and I did not remember a thing until I came back here."

"And besides, I can't help being in love! Really, I think I may finally understand how my mother felt, and why she had re-married so often. Love is such a fickle, magical thing, that drives people to do what seems like mad things to those whom have never been." Just replace 'love' with 'money'. "Not that you would ever understand, of course. Anyway, that's your answer. Love! It really is the greatest thing~. A true lady cannot live without it."

Hattie pauses a moment from her being happy to give Ella an accusing glare, "You know, Ella, you could at least pretend to mean that."

She pays a glance to her watch, though, which causes her to gasp in surprise, "Oh, yes, you're right! Well then, I had best get going, and it looks like my work here is done, right on schedule! Toodles, Ella~." she wiggles her fingers, then turns around to head right on out, apparently not needing a visit to the spa today. Out the door she goes!



After a moment, there's the sound of high-speed heels clacking, and Hattie leans back into the doorway, "By the way! I want a Prada bag for Christmas! Thank you~!" and she's off again.
