*A place as massive as the opera house always needed more people to help clean or take care of the performers, Manon reasoned as she walked into the grand foyer. Maybe she could even dance. She'd been good at that, back home, though she hadn't had a lesson since she was sixteen.
She glanced around the heavily decorated room, wondering who she was supposed to talk to for employment here.
After a while, she began to hum a song that Anna had taught her.*

Erika, lingering behind a pillar, froze.
Not since Christine...

*She stopped suddenly with an impatient sigh. Maybe this was pointless- she'd try to find a job in some sort of inn or restaurant.
She started walking toward the door.*

((Awesome! ^_^))
*Manon whirled around, searching for the voice.*
"Who's there?"
*She could barely make out a shadowy figure behind a pillar...*

*She stepped toward the voice, a confused look on her face.*
"I'm not. Who's there- let me see you."

"You can't ask me to stay then remain hidden," *she reasoned with a frown.*

"That's no way to hold a conversation," *she said with a frown. She sighed, seeing that she wouldn't be able to reason with the strange woman.*
"Who are you?"

"I'm... well, I'd like to be your music teacher."

"Music teacher?" *she asked incredulously.*
"You must be mistaken, madame. I was going to apply for a maid's position here, or to help with costumes. I don't sing!"

"But you must!"
She strode out of the shadows.

*She blinked for a moment, taken by surprise at the woman's appearance.*
"I- I'm sorry, madame, but I don't have any money to pay for lessons, and besides, I've never had to sing anything in my life!"
