Do alarms like that normally happen here? It was quite a wake-up call! I'm glad I wasn't drafted, but...

[ she's pretty concerned about people who are. Platina glances worriedly off to the side, then turns back to the feed. ]

I hope they'll be all right. In the meantime... does anyone know how to make a cake?

[ pointing the camera at her disastrous-looking attempt. yyyyes, wrong canon, but the girl is not a cook! it's her birthday and she wants cake damnit o9" also action is cool for anyone living in pokehouse too. ]

[ aaand cutting the last one when the knife slips as she glances up for the sugar. ]

Understood. I'll... ow--!

[ she flinches from the small nick on her thumb, then tries to pretend she hadn't at all. NOTHING HAPPENED. ]

Oh!

[Emmet dropped what he was doing, taking the knife from her and giving her a worried look.]

Careful! Safety first! Let me see.

It doesn't hurt. I'm fine!

[ trying to reach for a napkin to cover it up. maybe if it doesn't bleed too much she can be in more denial, sounds like a plan 8| ]

Miss Berlitz, please...

[Come on, give him your hand, young lady!]

Let's at least wash and put a bandage on it.

Well. I suppose that's the proper way to go about it.

[ too embarrassed to admit she doesn't know where first aid is located though 8| ]

So, where do you keep your bandages?

Bandages. Of course! I... will... go look for them right now. Yes.

[ they wouldn't be in the kitchen would they. she awkwardly glances around in a last-minute search before setting off. THE HUNT BEGINS. ]

I'll help you! Where's the bathroom?

... Right, it'll be in the restroom! Of course. I'll show you the way!

[ off we go o/ ]

[Of course! That's where Ingo and Emmet keep theirs, after all. Emmet will check and see if the mirror opens up to a cabinet.]

[ apparently so. Platina tries to go up on tip-toes to see if there are band-aids, being short sucks!!... hopefully there are some with cute patterns though. ]

[Well, luckily, Emmet is extremely tall! He has no problem reaching up and rummaging around until he found bandages and salve.]

Found it! Good. Follow the rules: wash your cut!

[ dutifully going to the sink to do so, wincing at the water's stinging, then quickly pretending she hadn't done so >8| ]

There are rules even for this, are there?

Yes! Simple ones. First, wash it. Two, don't lick it. Three, apply salve. And four, apply bandage!

[He'll just take your hand, milady, and put on the Neosporin equivalent and the bandaid.]

All aboard the road to recovery!

[ aand she just accepts the treatment. denial can only get you so far, but she smiles. ]

... Then I'll board. I appreciate the concern, Mr. Emmet.

You should take care of yourself! It's easier for everyone to smile if they have no reason to be concerned! Besides, you shouldn't let yourself be miserable, either, even if it's such a small pain. No one deserves to be unhappy!

... I used to think that keeping your composure was more important. It's just not ladylike to appear weak or incompetent.

It's not weak to express pain! That's silly. Everyone hurts themselves now and then, why would you be ashamed of something like that?

W-well, I'm the daugher of a noble house. We're supposed to be better than that!

...Was my reasoning, I suppose.

I see! Well, I don't know those rules, so you don't have to worry about adhering them for me. I won't tell!

I appreciate it. But I don't believe that anymore, so you won't have to worry.

I'll try to take care of myself from now on.

Just make sure you can be happy and comfortable! That's what matters.

[ closing her hand over her injured finger, then nodding. ]

You're right. I think I should be fine now.

Now! Let's go back to making this cake! Be careful with your fingers, safety first!

I'll keep that in mind. Let's make it the best we can!

[ ALLONS-Y o/ ]
