*der Tod heaved a sigh. Not for the first time, he was reminded of why he didn't want to do his job anymore.*
"Well..."
*He said in the awkward silence*
"Have you done housekeeping before?"

*She looked up.* Um, sort of? I've kept up my family's apartment, and I have- had three brothers. I'm working as a maid occasionally at the Blakeney estate, and I- I'm a hard worker.

*He raised an eyebrow*
"You work for the Blakeneys? You are certainly qualified, then, to have them as employers."

I would for anyone to get back to Michael. *She forced back her thoughts.* Oh, yes, monsieur- thank you so much! *She flung herself at him impulsively, hugging him tightly.*

*Luckily, Treszka saw Scarlett coming and popped out of the way just in time to avoid getting squished as the girl hugged her father. Der Tod was decidedly surprised when Scarlett threw herself at him and hugged him. Still, he followed his first impulse, which was to hug her in return. He patted her back* "You're welcome, mein fraulein. "
