[ Eli finally tromps his way out of the forest, one (1) apple devoured and numerous smudges all of his clothes. He's still scrubbing the dirty handprint off of his face, assuming he can do that at all. ]

...don't do anything that would upset the mom.

[ He grumbles as a warning to Celeste (and Arven, who beat him there). ]

[beathollow]

He kinda can... texture-wise at least.

The maid seems to frown a bit as he approaches, but she forces a smile.

Don't worry. No one can be as perfect as the princess. She'll still see you kindly, too.

[ ...ha ha, wow, he knows a forced smile when he sees one. People put on a nice face around him since they need his mom on their side. Shitty people. He opens his mouth to say something rude, but after a quick glance towards Celeste and Arven, he decides against it.

Mouth closes.

He'll just glare daggers at her instead. ]

[He flashes a knowing, sympathetic look in return. He wants to say something in Eli’s defense. He really does. But he’s kind of tongue-tied at the moment.]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Eli catches the look and returns a grin and a wink. Yeah, yeah, he's being cheeky, but if anyone here needs some cheering up (besides Mafuyu herself), it's Arven. ]

[supherb]

[Eli… He appreciates you so much.]

[Hm. That displeasure towards Eli sure is noted - and it's assumed there will be more where that came from for others, so.

Gonna start cooking up excuses for it, if needed. Something something rougeish bodyguard for the princess, etc.]

[supherb]

[He gives Eli an up and down look. Yeah…figures Eli would immediately fail to meet Mafuyu’s mother’s standards. He feels like it’s only a matter of time before his own clothes are smudged.]

I had a feeling it’d be like that…

[fullmoonmutt]

At least now we know for sure, yeah?
