[Manuela turns on the video and carefully sets up the device to be balanced on something. You can see she's sitting in a hallway on a couch with no cushions. She looks as amazing as ever. Makeup done to perfection, the slit of her dress riding up just right, the dip of the front showing off an excellent amount of cleavage. She's living her best life with a glass of wine in hand.]
You know, dears. If anyone is looking for a maid, I have just the person for you. I've really never seen anyone more thorough.
[Reaching over, she turns the camera to show that the hallway is filled with furniture. All stripped down. All looking like they've been thoroughly cleaned. She keeps turning it until she shows the way into Sylvain's doorway where he's on his hands and knees scrubbing furiously at the floor of the entryway.]
Just mention you left a tiny bit of dirt somewhere and this handsome young man will deep clean an entire apartment.
[She brings it back around to her, looking smug as she sips at her wine. Even without all the details it's pretty clear Manuela is the one who told him she slipped dirt into his place and sent him into this cleaning frenzy.]
I will warn you though... Don't bother trying to distract him with how lovely you are while he's cleaning. He will prioritize it over you.
[Okay the bitterness to her tone MIGHT suggest what happened here. But she smiles and winks.]
Call me if you need all that extra help. I'm so happy to be his manager.

I'm sure he didn't mean to offend you, Manuela.
no subject
Oh, he had no problem offending me even when he was aware he was doing so.

I suppose it's not really my business.
[read: I probably would not have done the same thing but if someone were completely unable to get it up in your mess of a house I would understand that.]
no subject
Not if you would like to take his side in this.
[OFFENDED.]
no subject
Sorry. I do feel for you, but...
no subject
Ugh. You sound like Hanneman.
[SHE SURE DOES HANG UP.]

It looked like he missed a spot? Tell him to go a liiiiiittle more to the left.
no subject
Sylvain dear, you missed a spot a little more to the left. There it is, dear.
Why thank you. And how are you doing, Hilda?

Oh, I'm fine. I'd ask how you are, but it looks like you're having fun! [A pointed pause.] Now, anyway.

[Something, something, timelines, but Hilda is skipping right over that? Head hurty. She is here to cause problems, so please accept this thoughtful hum.]
We really do have so much to catch up on... and if we serve ourselves, we might forget all about the tea? Let it steep way too long while we talk...
[😇😇😇]
no subject
Hilda, would you like me to make you something else instead?

I usually punished him with laps and stable-cleaning.
What did he do?
no subject
no subject
In that case, he can clean Dimitri's, Ashe's, and Felix's apartments next.
Professor's orders.
no subject
no subject
then Seteth's.
The cats need their litter box changed and their claws trimmed.
[ He can go on forever. Stop him when it's too much. ]
no subject
[The problem is that Manuela is not so secretly a sadist.]
no subject
if you're still feeling uncomfortable.
[ That way Sylvain will at least be temporarily free to focus his attention elsewhere. ]
no subject
[What's wrong with that? HUFF. Though...]
But I suppose having help to sort things out a bit would be nice.
no subject
[ And also less reason to mess her place up even more. ]

... I'm glad he seems to be focusing on some things that aren't pleasant distractions for once.
Not that it is right to ignore you, of course... but it would mean more in a better environment, would it not?
[ Appreciation in a clean room is better than a messy one! ]
no subject
[For...reasons.]
And not when I am in heat, dear. And especially not when he tells me to play with toys until he's done.
no subject
Then he's there because-
Oh.
[ Don't mind him, he's slow. ]
no subject
no subject
I... I see.
[ SYLVAIN EVEN MANUELA???? ]
Then he should be attending to you appropriately. Cleaning can wait if you're in need.
no subject
You see? You understand! Ugh. It was awful! So this is just a little bit of revenge for neglecting me in my time of need.

I don't need a maid, though I am curious about what did Sylvain do?
no subject
no subject
[Ashe learned a few things just in that statement alone.]
I'm sure Sylvain had a reason for why he didn't help right at that moment. Maybe he can help you take care of that next time?
[It didn't sound like Sylvain to pass up a moment like that, unless there was a something he really had to do. He didn't imagine it would be cleaning Manuela's room.]
no subject
[She didn't actually. She just knows how he gets with it.]
no subject
[Honestly, Ashe is surprised that Sylvain turned down Manuela to clean. He didn't imagine Sylvain to be so thorough in his cleaning either. There's a lot he's learning about today.
Hiding dirt in his place, really Manuela?]
Well, when he's finished I can take care of dinner for him.
[He hoped he wouldn't be cleaning too long.]
no subject
[She sips at her martini.]
Oh he's going to be busy for a couple of days now. The dear professor has offered a few other places for him to also clean.
un: blackcrown
[Seeing Sylvain like this is, quite honestly, a very special joy to her, though.]
How the mighty have fallen...Do remind me not to get on your bad side, Professor Manuela.
no subject
And how have you been dear?
no subject
I’m afraid life for me here has yet to feel any easier, and there are still precious few I find myself comfortable around.
Unfortunately I’m in no position to enjoy idle pranks.
[A pity, because this is pretty great.]
no subject
[Surely you're not suggesting this is a prank, Edelgard. This very carefully thought out and planned vengeance.]
no subject
...Have I misinterpreted this arrangement?
[Look, as long as this isn’t a weird sexual thing or something.]
