♣ 015 || Video | Action at the mansion if you want it

[haring_to_go]

[ Liam's stern face appears on the line and after a brief sigh, and a push of his forefinger against the bridge of his glasses, he speaks. ]

There's no help for it. I'm afraid I must request help of a particularly delicate nature. Discreetness is of course required. For those interested, please respond to my number, personally.

Thank-you

As for the job itself, well... prior experience in the cleaning business, would be most beneficial.

[ Liam hung up quickly and pressed his forehead against the nearby wall. After months of working for Karl, he still hadn't managed to make a dent in the mess some four or five vampires can make in a days time. And that spoke of nothing about Diva! If Vincent was bad, he had nothing on Diva. Fluff strewn everywhere... ]

((ooc: aka, Liam's been housekeeping for Karl/Solomon/Nathan/Diva/Marishka and anyone else who is a common resident of Diva's Mansion and he's getting frustrated and looking for a maid to help get ahead of the mess. His perfectionist attitude won't allow things to stay in such unkempt conditions!))

I don't know much about cleaning, so I'm afraid I couldn't be of help. But I did want to visit you. We haven't really done anything in a while, have we?

Private response;

[haring_to_go]

[ he flusters ] My apologies! Would you care to meet up sometime for tea?

[ if he recalled correctly, Ken seemed to have a fondness for the past time. And he'll just... have to force himself to leave work for a bit. That shouldn't be a big deal... right? ]

Private response;

[oceantrauma]

Tea would be nice. How and when would it be most convenient for you? You sound really busy....

Private response;

[haring_to_go]

No! That's... [ he draws in a breath and readjusts his glasses once again ] I'm allowed an afternoon off a week. This Thursday perhaps?

[ and he'll just actually take that afternoon off. With luck, the extra help will already be in place to help lighten the work load. ]

Private response;

[oceantrauma]

If that's okay, then yes. Thursday would work well for me.

...Since I don't work. [He's also eleven.]

[dispossess]

There's a job that's too much for you to handle?

[haring_to_go]

[ he frowns ]

I've been given disposition to hire extra help. I'll, of course, be managing the work. [ he shall not admit defeat! quite yet ]

[dispossess]

It sounds like you have some important work, there.

But I think I have my hands full already.

[haring_to_go]

[ and this is why he required discreetness. He's, for the most part, been reduced to picking up after adult children. Oh how low the great Liam has sunk! ]

I couldn't ask it of you; you've been more then enough help already. [ considering he's put Elliot's full health into Leo's capable hands. Do not disappoint him! ]

Action;

[worldofourown]

[ There's a Chevalier leaning against the doorframe, a glass of 'wine' dangling precariously from his fingers. CREEP! Where did he come from?! ]

Problems, monsieur Lunettes?

Action;

[haring_to_go]

[ he eeps! ]

M-Master Karl! [ DON'T SNEAK UP ON HIM LIKE THAT!!!! He's going to die of a heart attack one of these days! ] There's nothing wrong!

Action;

[worldofourown]

[ Such a skittish bunny. Diva probably adores it. ]

Oh?

Then what's all this about delicacy and discretion?

Action;

[haring_to_go]

[ she is not allowed to touch his bunny! ]

I was simply looking to hire an extra maid. With the added guests in the house, I deemed it a wise use of resources. [ please, please, please don't tell him no! ]

[misfortunes]

A discreet cleaning, Mister Lunettes. . . ?

[haring_to_go]

Indeed. I'm afraid it's not a j ob you'd particularly be fond of, however. [ and why is no one privating things! ]

[misfortunes]

[ because your face is funny, Mister Lunettes. ]

Indeed, I hadn't supposed. . . but would you take a recommendation, I wonder.

[haring_to_go]

[ ... it's just a face. ]

Of... course. I would be a fool not to take one. [ he doesn't know if he should be hopeful or suspicious. This is Vincent after all! ]

Action

[manyadenouement]

[Well hello, Liam~ I hope you don't mind having a hand exploring your backside very suddenly.]

Oh my~ Did Diva and Karl make a mess again~?

Action

[haring_to_go]

EEEEEEEK! [ He spins! Holding his derrierre and looking flabbergasted. ]

Mr. Mahler! I beg your pardon!

[ and discretion. Just give him a clap on the shoulder if it's too busy working to notice the other man! Not... that. ]

Action

[manyadenouement]

Hello~

[Oh it's so cute when they do that.]

Action

[haring_to_go]

[ His poor heart is still racing as he shakily straightens out his glasses ]

ahem, was there something I could help you with?

[Chekov has about as much interest in cleaning as any other eighteen year-old boy (that is, none), but curiosity compels him to poke at anything containing words like delicate and discreet.]

What is this job?

video / private

[haring_to_go]

[ ah, yes. The Chekhov lad. ]

It's a simple affair; some light cleaning, lifting, general sweeping and dusting. [ he frowns ] My employers simply value their privacy highly and of course certain rooms are off limits.

Are you interested?

[candothat]

Not really, but I am curious--who are your employers?

[haring_to_go]

The Goldsmiths. Do you know them?
