"N-Nako-san!" Miya blurted, desperately drawing attention to the older maid and just barely managing to keep her voice down. "What do you mean by that? Of course we're all here to serve the Mistress, but shouldn't all us maids be on the same level?"
Standing up straight and throwing her chest out in a way that caused a few of her securing straps to groan like they were on the verge of bursting, Miya crossed her arms and frowned. "In fact, I think it would be best if we gathered up all the maids to discuss this before we approach the Mistress," she declared, before she noticed Akemi's raised hand. Reaching out, she desperately tried to catch it.

H:44F(8/30)S|G:19F(0/10)SMila happened to cross the path Miya had taken and caught the scent of the tuna she'd been carrying. She thought this was unusual, since she didn't see a reason to drag fresh fish through the house, and started following the trail.
She found the group of three maids standing outside the mistress' room (completely missing the other two). "Is something wrong?"
Chiyo murmured quietly in her sleep, turning around and nuzzling her nose into the nape of Ayame’s neck as she moved closer to her. Things were very peaceful now and the mistress had no intention of breaking this peaceful slumber. Loud voices came from outside her door however, rousing the woman from her bed and leaving her irritable.
‘Of course they have to come now…’ Chiyo thought, looking around for an object that she could use to exact her retribution upon those who disturbed her and her ‘visitor’. This trail of thought was interrupted when logic came into mind. Ayame was still here and was in a position not commonly referred to as modest. The mistresses next precious moments and choices were critical.
Chiyo was now fully covered, wearing the same outfit as she was last seen in before her disappearance. Ayame was comfortably yet completely covered up, several pillows blocking sight of her from the door way viewpoint. The mistress now moved to her door, opening it slowly to find one of her maids, Akemi, grasping the same door and flanked by several of her sisters of hire. Sighing quietly Chiyo looked at each quizzically, bluffing a yawn. “What is it girls?”
"To fan the flames of war is to burn the land away""Oh, so you were sleeping?" Akemi asked. She smiled apologetically and bowed. "I am sorry for waking you up, then. Me and Miya, here," she gestured to the girl in bondage wear, "were just coming to complain about the incident at breakfast today. I believe it to be completely inappropriate. If they want to do something like that, they should do it in their own quarters, not while we and especially you have to see it. Right?" she turned, asking the group behind her.
Akemi (What Mistress Wants...) Spirit: 20 Stress: 0 Favor: 1Like an old-style thermometer filling to the top, Miya's neck and face turned red all the way to her hairline, and with a muffled 'pop', the hair on either side of her head frizzed out almost as though she had suddenly grown a pair of long, furry, white-tipped ears. As Chiyo was also seeing her from behind, the Mistress also noticed that Miya's hair suddenly looked much longer, trailing all the way to the floor and simlarly tipped with a pure white flash... and both new additions seemed to be twitching.
"Ah, it's nothing we can't deal with later, Mistress!" Miya assured her mistress loudly, a serene smile on her lips. She was relieved that the Mistress looked like she was finished with... whatever she'd been doing - but really, to just knock like that!
Turning to Akemi, she gave the girl a narrow-eyed glare. "Akemi-san, clearly the Mistress was resting! You should be ashamed of yourself!" Lifting her cudgel, she pointed toward the house proper. "Since you've woken her up now, please go run the Mistress a fresh bath!" she commanded in a tone that brooked no argument, and there were definitely a few tiny blue sparks swirling around her now. PUNISHMENT MODE - SWITCH ON!
Catching the gaze of the newcomer, Miya shook her head. "Everything is fine, Mila-san. We were just leaving so Mistress can freshen up," she replied. And by this point Mila should probably be able to smell the odor of sex coming off of the Mistress as easily as Miya does -_-;...

H:44F(8/30)S|G:19F(0/10)SAkemi was about to turn around and snap at the other girl (probably not literally but that outfit did have her thinking...) when she noticed the sparks. How the hell did that girl know magic? Akemi growled as it took effect. "Y-yes. O-of course..." She forced out and quickly walked towards what she hoped was the bath. Of course, knowing her, she'd probably get lost...
1d6(6)*Luck(2)=12 to find the bath
Ayame woke up to hear voices outside the room, and noticed that she had been moved and concealed from view. She determined it prudent to stay where she was, but she noticed that her uniform was within reach in her little hiding spot, so she could at least get dressed, on the off-chance she was discovered.
"Well...” Chiyo began, doing her best to keep a stern and commanding posture. "I have no qualms against such acts outside of outright explicit activities. If you as a group feel that it is an issue, however, than I will talk to the two and discourage their actions” the woman continued, moving close to Akemi and stroking her cheek softly. “We’re all human here though, and as such have impulses. I understand this, and hope that my free thoughts on this subject will open up your hearts to me as well as to each other”.
Looking over to Miya, Chiyo had to stifle a giggle as she watched her response to Akemi’s rash actions. The bondage princess did worry her, but it seemed that she was on her side this time. ‘Good’ she thought, ‘maybe she won’t bring this up later…Hopefully’.
“It is quite alright Miya-hime” Chiyo responded, a sincere smile etched onto her face. “There is no offense, though your input is most appreciated”, the mistress looked to Miya and removed her hand from Akemi, moving to the other and placed her lips close to her ear. “Please keep youknowwhat a secret from the others alright? Just relax for a while, you have been up and around for far too long and your choice in apparel isn’t exactly breathable” She whispered, kissing her ear playfully. “Perhaps you should take a bath? I’m sure the others would enjoy that as well” Chiyo spoke up so the others could hear, attempting to cover up the previous bit of conversation.
"To fan the flames of war is to burn the land away"Miya's furry ears twiched down shyly at the gentle attention her mistress paid her, and the notion to think more deeply about 'youknowwhat' instantly fled her mind, but '...you have been up and around for far too long...' Oh gods - I must smell like a bar!
"A-as you say, Mistress!" Miya agreed, somehow managing to go even redder than before. Her nose twitched as the scent of sweaty, shōchū-stained leather was brought into sharp relief in her mind; it was so hard to tell when things smelled strongly enough for other people to notice them, but apparently she'd have to be much more careful. At least the mistress didn't seem mad. Turning mechanically on one heel, she made to follow the vampire maid to the bath.

H:44F(8/30)S|G:19F(0/10)SAkemi blushed as she remembered Chiyo's hand on her face. She wasn't used to physical contact from anyone at all, so that was...interesting. Still, her mind was racing with the implications. Did the mistress know about her vampirism, and she was merely mocking her? Or maybe she was truly clueless. Akemi shook her head, shaking out of the thoughts. Worrying about it won't change whether or not it was true.
Akemi turned around and noticed the other girl. She glared at Miya. "Why are you following me? I'm doing what you told me to do." She asked as she walked into the bath and started getting it ready.
Akemi (What Mistress Wants...) Spirit: 20 Stress: 0 Favor: 1"Please be sure to lay out towels and such for... well, everyone, I guess," Miya replied, her face still glowing like a furnace as she self-consciously fingered one of the buckles that secured her elbow-length gloves. "Mistress has suggested that we all have a bath together, to... relax..." Though now that she thought about it, if the others were coming as well, then the girls who just couldn't help themselves at the breakfast table might be there! "Do you suppose the mistress has any extra-large wash towels?" she wondered nervously; she had quite a bit more dignity to protect than most girls her age, in terms of pure surface area.

H:44F(8/30)S|G:19F(0/10)S"Understood. Do not worry, I'll make sure to take good care of them" Nako remarked before giving her Mistress a little bow and departing towards the baths.
"By the way, I hope you enjoyed your rest, Chiyo-sama" Nako briefly said, looking back at the young Mistress for a brief second, her smile not giving any hints towards either innocence or mischievousness.
Akemi twitched and turned around. "...What? Take a bath with everyone? But..." She blushed. This was going to go badly very, very quickly. For one, she was kind of self conscious about her appearance; being pale as the driven snow was a bit of a sore spot for her. For another, she did not do well with staying in a hot place for a very long time. It'd be...well, problematic if she fainted. Finally...
she hadn't eaten in a while, and everyone she's seen so far looks oh so delicious. She shook her head and tried to ignore it. "Not that I can see. Trust me, I am less happy about this then you are.
Akemi (What Mistress Wants...) Spirit: 20 Stress: 0 Favor: 1Miya dithered about the bathing area, doing her best to 'supervise' Akemi as the pale maid readied the bath, but she knew she was just stalling. Best to get this over with quickly, so that I can get out while the others are still washing up, she decided. Facing a corner in the changing room (after making sure her ears and tail had been hidden away properly again), the red-haired amazon began undoing the buckles and straps that secured her uniform. Unfortunately, this was no simple task, and she was still working at it when Nako and Mila arrived.

H:44F(8/30)S|G:19F(0/10)S"I'm fiiIINE!" Miya squeaked as she accidentally yanked on a strap she shouldn't have, causing the top of her uniform's built-in corset tighten uncomfortably. "R-really! If I can't even undress myself then I'll never survive here..." she added with a strained chuckle.

Tara tugged on Hina's hand. "Let's go!" she hissed, trying to keep her voice low. So far, none of the other three maids had seemed to notice them, but that could change at any moment.
