fourth prayer

[A: Action for 1650 Albright Lane]

[Esther has been trying to get it together since the Carnival. It shouldn't be that hard for her in theory. She's seen plenty of horrors in her short life. Seeing Cain like that and losing Father (or more accurately being abandoned by him) shook her. Esther can't bring herself to acknowledge it so she sticks with a half hearted routine of taking care of the family and listening to the phones. It's the same messages over and over again with different wording. (Are there answers? Was it all for nothing? We should do something!) None of it reaches her.

It's the package that starts to stir Esther back to life. She takes it inside, sets it on the kitchen table, and begins to opening it. Her side burns immediately. Esther lifts up part of her dress to see what happened (enjoy seeing her panties housemates) only to be distracted by the rest of the boxes contents.
Her habit is inside. She drops her dress (you should notice there's a star shaped mark on side above her hip if you're around housemates) and runs her fingers over the white fabric.

Esther already felt more like herself.]


[B: Phone | filter to Abel]

... If you don't answer this I'm stopping by the house and everywhere I can think of to talk to you. [Her voice is soft at first. This second sentence is more Esther-like; stubborn and impatient.] We're going to talk!

[C: Phone | filter to Cain]

[She tries her best to sound cheerful. It's a mixed bag.] Hello! I'm sorry for being so quiet. If you're around, would you like to stop by for some tea or anything like that? I realized today we haven't done that in a while.

[D: Phone | Open to all]

I know we've got a lot of messages asking where everyone is and if there are any answers to be found so I won't be adding to them. I will say that I'm going to the church in a little while. I'm going to make some snacks and a fresh pot of tea. Anyone who wants to see me or enjoy that is welcome to come.

[E:  Action for Church of Salvation]

[True to her word Esther can be found in the kitchen working on making some food and tea. She's in her newly regained habit (linked above!). Esther is humming a little tune to no one while doing this. She is going to make herself be useful again regardless of everything.]

[hey, hey, Esther is the one doing these things.]

Are you sure you wish to show off when there is a precious, innocent child my age around?

[it isn't unusual for him to stumble in on someone using the kitchen, but he's a little surprised to see that it isn't Ciel for once. but since he is the pinnacle of manners and maturity, he'll quietly mosey over to the table to have a seat before announcing his presence.

...actually, nope, he's just going to wait until she turns around and see if she has a mini heart attack instead.]

[His head turns to the side....clearly in fake shame]

Whatever should I do with my life? God will turn me away at his heavenly gates now.

And you already think such awful things about me. How black your soul must be.

[it's the little things in life like this that he enjoys the most okay.]

Not very long. What are you making?
splitthebaby: (i had a stand once and it was awful)

[personal profile] splitthebaby 2012-07-14 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
If you don't think such bad things then why do you assume I'm just making fun of you?

[gee i wonder why merem]

Woah, if I can't get half naked in the house, neither can you!

[ Roxy just wanted some cookies from the kitchen!? What did she walk into. I mean, she kinda had an appreciation for Esther. She seemed like a BAMF in her own rights. She's still shielding her eyes. ]

sleepwalked: (ok nbd i guess)

[ It only took a second for Roxy to cease the teasing. 'Hurt' was all she heard before she snatched up a towel and was ready to play nurse Ro'lal. ]

If that's the case, you should have called for someone, dumbass.

[ She gives her a worried look. ]

You okay? I don't know how stripping and having weird marks has anything to do with whats wrong but...

[he will gladly take pride in even a single grey hair, if he manages that much damage.]

Some tea would be nice. I've already eaten my fill since returning. [meaning some of his drone neighbors mysteriously went missing in one night, how strange...]

Confirmation bias.

I'm hardly teasing you.

[It's not a lie! He's just being....malicious.]

The fact is, I'm not teasing you at all.
encored: (that's a bit unusual)

True, though I fared better than most. [the whole not needing food or sleep thing definitely came in handy.] What of yourself? I didn't see you outside of the funhouse.

[Of course Esther is going to be greeted by the Church entrance before she steps into the kitchen. Ciel lives there it's her territory makes a point to have everything stocked and orderly as often as possible - in fact, it may be said that she takes more care of the kitchen at the church than her own house...]

Good day, Sister Esther. Feeling energetic today? [She'll be greeted with a chipper smile, of course!! And totes heard that phonecall, but being spirited is a good thing, y/y]
