[Video proposal]

[A cheerful woman, dressed in lavish royal blue robes, is grinning on camera]

Why, hello everyone. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Iono Mito Archeline. My interests include various maidenly amusments, tea time, flirtatious chit chat, and you. <3 Yes. you, whoever you may be. You see, I know without a doubt each and every one of you is special and beautiful, and I want to know you better.

So, please, won't you be my sobame?

Sure~

[So Grell takes her time wandering down to the orchard, looking for this woman. Certainly it was very strange, very bold of her to make such an announcement over the Vine. But...hmm. It did seem to be getting results. If nothing else, it was a way to spend the day.

Looking around, she spotted the black haired woman.]

Miss Archeline?

[She stood from her seat to bow, various fruits piled up in a bowl. It was like something out of a painting]

Miss Sutcliffe~ Sutcliffe, why, what is that? Is it, French?

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

[She curtsies, after all, this woman carries a certain air of nobility, and with all the various ones running about she'd rather not ignore custom.]

English, actually. Though my first name is German.

[Iono is used to pleasantries, but certainly doesn't demand them, especially since she doesn't always bring up her queen...ness.]

Both are quite lovely places. Sit down~ [She plucks up a grape but doesn't eat it.]

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

[Grell does, delicately arranging her skirt out of habit, and takes an apple, more looking at it than considering tasting it.]

You've been to both?

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

Diplomatic relations with such nations are very important. [She pops the grape into her mouth. After she swallows there's a little gasp of contentedness.]

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

Are you a diplomat, then?

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

That is one of the duties of a queen, yes.

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

[She processes that for a moment, before dropping down into a deep bow.]

...My Lady, I am sorry....

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

My goodness, please, I told you not, so there is no need to apologize! Ahhhh... while I would never give away the responsibility or the privileges of my station, I most certainly do not wish for it to come between myself and such beautiful maidens as you.

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

If you insist.

[She straightens and gives a smile.]

It's a strong habit, from where I am, so it was the first reaction.

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

I much prefer to be close to people.

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

What a coincidence, then.

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

Hmmm? Do go on~

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

I also prefer being close to people. [Ambiguity get!]

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

Why, come here then. [She says, scooting her seat closer half way]

Tell me about yourself, your passions, your dreams~

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

[She scoots somewhat closer. Not too close, but close enough.]

For me, well, there's not much to tell. I do love the written word, though, especially acting. It was such a disappointment to see no plays in the Library!

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

I do rather enjoy the poetry, but I must agree; the lack of theater is a terrible s shame. Do you, yourself, write?

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

Many have asked that...I should try. I do often think of things that might make a poem.

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

Keep pen and paper. Why, write down everything~

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

That's an excellent idea! I think I shall~

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

I hope to hear your work very soon.

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

You'll be the first.

[b-mai-sobame.livejournal.com]

[She claps her hands giddily]

[falterderleere.livejournal.com]

[She laughs and takes a bite of the apple.]

If the Gardens give me the chance to meet people like you, I have another thing to be thankful for.
