"Nya you're probably right about those papers," Tammy replies, still watching down the stars toward the main hall. "Because of them, nya we can no longer let our guard down."

Just then, "Eh... hello?" an unfamiliar voice calls out. Tammy's ears and tail perk up as she quickly turns around on the couch, finding herself facing an orange-clad maid with one green eye visible as her pink hair hides her other eye. And... a collar?

Not sure what to expect from the latest entry to the Manor, Tammy tenses up as she holds her position. "Nya how'd you get in?" she adds to Junko's question, her ears and tail twitching from anxiety. "Nya and what's that around your neck?"

"I gather it was," Marnie began to respond to Junko's assessment of the day's activities, "But I came looking for m-..."

She stopped mid-sentence as she caught that feline scent again. Catgirl definitely, and close! The fox tensed too as she sniffed the air diligently in an effort to pinpoint the source of that scent. Then one of the maids spoke up and mixed cat noises in with her words. Marnie relaxed once she'd figured out that the catgirl was just one of the maids. But now she had to get the introductions through in a way that wouldn't put the other maids further on edge.

"Well, you see.. there was a lot of fighting, and alarms, and fire earlier so I.. I snuck in while everyone was preoccupied," Marnie answered meekly, staring down at the floor and anxiously grinding a food into the floor. Then she perked up and smiled, "But I came to find Mister D... I'm sure the master of this manor could use some extra help, so I came to offer my services. But he doesn't seem to be home.."

Then she fingered the tag on her collar, glanced back towards the maids, and shrugged, "This? Just an old necklace someone really special gave me."

"Nope he had to leave for a while." says Junko shrugging. "The maid in charge is kinda....occupied at the moment so....I don't really know what we're gonna do here."

"Huh... Do you know Mr. Jobsem?" Kyla asked. The new girl didn't seem to be lying. Although there was a scent coming from her that was somehow familiar...

"Know him? I don't know if I'd say that," Marnie hedged, trying to not reveal too much just yet. The head maid - and therefore her new boss - was occupied, so any real revelations would have to wait for now. Even then the fox maid wasn't sure she wanted to give up all her secrets at once, or maybe even at all, despite her new employment.

"I know of him at least," she offered at last, fidgeting anxiously, "It looks like a lot happened here today.. would it be all right if I helped you keep an eye out for anything dangerous?"

"Hmmm...well that doesn't sound like a bad idea to me, what do you guys think?" says Junko.

Tammy ponders for a moment. Although still a little nervous, maybe from trusting a stranger to them so soon, she eventually nods her head in agreement. "Nya I'm sure any assistance would be appreciated."

"Nya where are our manners?" Tammy then says as she stands up off the couch and bows slightly. "We're the maids of Spyhold Manor. Nya my name's Tammy. The maid in the light blue uniform is Kyla, and dressed in green is Junko. Nya and your name is?"

Marnie hopped in place with a pleased grin when the other maids agreed it was okay for her to help out. She'd been afraid she might have to hide out in the mansion after they said no, sneaking meals and the like whilst waiting for Dan to return. Now she knew the other girls' names and presumably had a job! Giddy as she was she neglected to bow in response to Tammy's greeting.

"Marnie! My name's Marnie," she answered, the tag on her collar jangling as she moved about, "So what can I do to help?"

"Well she's enthusiastic that's cool." mutters Junko before speaking normally, "Well let's see...nothing's comming to my mind off hand...what do you think Tammy? Might need her to stand in for Hitsugi come the second watch if she doesn't wake up in time."

"Nya good thinking," Tammy whispers with a glance toward Junko before turning back to face Marnie and speaking normally. "Marnie? Think you can stand being a lookout here starting at about 3 AM nya?"

"We have the guest suite, don't we?" Kyla asks. "Then again, Olivia and Hui Jong seem to be missing..."

"Guess the night must be getting to me, I suddenly couldn't remember." says Junko. "And good point. Let's hope no one else pulls a vanishing act."

"That's all you need me to do? Sure, that sounds great," the fox chirped in reply to the catgirl, then cocking her head to the side when talk came of where she'd sleep and of maids disappearing. Things were more serious than she'd realized if maids were vanishing into thin air! All the more reason to stay and help Mister Dan's maids watch his house while he was absent.

"Don't worry too much about finding me someplace to sleep, I'd even be happy just to sleep in a closet or something," she offered, looking completely serious about the closet comment.

"That's big of ya but I don't think it's gonna come to that." says Junko, "Just had one of those sudden memory lapses ya know? Or maybe your lucky enough not to have those."

Thanks for reminding me, Tammy sarcastically thinks upon mention of their missing fellow maids, flashing a worried expression for a second before regaining her composure for the issue at hand.

"Nya I'm sure we can find a place for..." Tammy stops as Marnie suggests sleeping in a closet. "Nya are you sure, Marnie?" she asks in response. "Nya I've tried sleeping in closets before. Personally, I find the bed much more comfortable."

"I've done it once or twice myself, beds are a lot nicer. Course I've ended up sleeping in a car trunk once or twice. When my dad said he lived out of his car he meant it." says Junko. If she's joking there's no sign of it.

"Sure, I used to do it all the time back when I was younger," Marnie explained, then glanced down to her bust line and frowned as she contemplated a closet as a bed. The result didn't sound terribly comfortable after all, "But I guess I've gotten a bit bigger since then.. but anywhere nice and cozy I can curl up in.. er.. lay my head is fine by me!"

Did she just say 'curl up'? Tammy shakes off the thought for now. "It's settled then," she says. "Nya I don’t go in there often so unless it's been converted into another office or lab or something like that, nya there should be a guest suite up here... next to Junko and Hitsugi's suite, I believe."

Tammy turns to face Kyla. "Nya okay if you lead Marnie there, Kyla, or should I?"

Kyla thought about it for a moment. "I think I'll lead her there," she said. She was curious about the oddly familiar scent coming from Marnie, and this was a good way to see what it was... "Right this way, Marnie."

"Okay then looks like we're in business so to speak." says Junko smiling. "See you two later, and welcome to the mansion Marnie, normally things are a lot less hectic around here."

"Thanks, see you later! Nice to meet you," Marnie waved to Tammy and Junko, "Hectic is fine if it's to help out Mis... Master Dan's maids!"

With that she followed Kyla to wherever the guest room was, adding, "It's nice to make your acquaintance too, Kyla.. have you been working at Spyhold Manor for long?"

"I have been here a while," Kyla confirmed. "Things didn't get quite this hectic until today, though." It probably wasn't a good idea to ask about the scent right off the bat.

"Nya same here," Tammy waves as Kyla and Marnie turn the corner toward the guest suite.

"Nya think Marnie would be a good addition to our ranks, Junko?" Tammy asks as she tries to focus back on watching down the stairway, still a little nervous about the new maid. She may know her name and what her face looks like, but that's all she actually knows about her.

"See ya later." says Junko as the two leave before turning to Tammy. "Well I dunno, she's certainly enthusastic, that's never a bad thing. Off hand I've got a good feeling about her, we'll see. She's got interesting timing too, showing up right when things are nuts and we could use an extra pair of hands. Course you could say her timing is too good, but I don't think it's quite time to be getting that paranoid just yet eh?"
