*Julian frowned briefly, but nodded in acceptance.*
"What is it that you do? What purpose are you to serve here?"

*She straightened her spine, trying to appear fearless and casual.*
"Pleasure."

*Julian paused, slightly confused.*
"Pleasure." *he repeated.*
"My mother's."
*It was almost a question, but then again, less so. More as if he was working something out.*

"I have not met your mother...and I assumed...I mean I was told...I'm to serve men." *She frowned a little.* "...not that I plan to serve anyone in that manner. In my heart I am a freewoman."

*Julian lifted his hand, as if to touch her cautiously.*
"Not to serve, but to pleasure. I am interested in how you function in this..."
*He frowned.*
"What am I to call you?"

"You're not to call me anything," *she said, her chin rising slightly.* "I will not bear the shame of hearing the name my parents gave me upon the tongues of men like you," *she said scathingly.*

*Julian scrunched his nose at her indignation.*
"Then do not use that name. Names are not in such scarcity that you are limited to the one. I need a manner in which to address you, if you are to stay."

*She shrugged.*
"I do not know the names of your people," *she said, speaking clearly but still with the strange inflection on her words that bespoke a birthplace far from the cold cellar.*

*Julian continued to stare.*
"I have no people. But if you do not wish a name, I can call you girl. If that is less...offensive to you."

"It is all I am to you, correct?" *She lifted her shoulders in a futile gesture.* "Call me what you will."

*Julian rolled his eyes.*
"Your gender is not what defines you to me. If that is how you wish me to name you, I will call you Inconvenience."

"I don't care what you call me," *she said, slipping the book back onto its shelf and moving towards the door.* "If you will excuse me, monsieur."

*Julian stepped in front of her, not finished with the discussion.*
"Where are you in such a hurry to?"

"I..."
haven't got anywhere to be.
"Away from you," *she sneered.*

*Julian smirked slightly.*
"Ah. Why? I have not forced you to serve your purpose. Surely it is not so terrible here with me."
