Karen & Alison
“I mean, I could keep doing that, but...” Karen sustained the sound of the last word before finishing, “I have such a busy schedule and things.” Karen gave the white-haired girl another smirk as xe gave a rather false recount of xyr schedule. Xe would’ve continued, but…
"Y-you...you insolent little brat!"
Karen was grabbed by xyr shoulder, barely able to keep xyr footing. Karen, putting on a rather unemotional face, turned to look at Tessalyva’s bright red face. “Hey, you look pretty cute with that red blush.” A sarcastic tone was evident in xyr voice.
"I-if you ever do anything like this to me again, I have you know I'll be...I'll be...I'll be reporting you to this facility's commitee. Yes. You heard me right. I am going to report you. Remember that.”
And with that, the girl left, talking to Alison before she tugged her suitcases to one of the dorms.
"See? ...you're perfect for it. Break down that superiority complex... do it for all of them. They'll live longer if you do, trust me..”
“Man, mother always told me not to talk to bad influences, but I gotta say, they’re pretty fun.” Karen watched Rame walk off, never even getting her name. Probably for the best, considering what xe usually does with names. Was the first block to breaking Tessa, after all.
With xyr conversation partner gone, Karen looked to xyr butler for something to say. Alison didn’t seem one for conversation, either, sadly. Karen saw the look of dismay on his face. He was angry at Karen, that’s for sure. Still, it was in his nature to want to help.
“Man, you’re such a dull nice guy, Alison.” “True, but may I at least have some help?” “Alison, do you know me? I should be asleep by now.” “Yes, you’re not wrong, but can you at least give me a few Nightmares to help?” Karen let out a laugh as he heard such a request. Still, Karen didn’t feel like letting Alison get upset. It was a rare occurrence, but it certainly did happen. Besides, xe could tell he really wanted to help. “Here, I’m feeling nice to my servants.” With a wave of xyr hand, sigils began appearing under the individual hair pins, more spiders appearing to hold the hairpins. Karen left xyr beloved spider beside the rest of them. “Go on, go be a hero.” “Thank you, Master Marcus.”
With that, Karen watched the little bugs scurry alongside Alison, dashing away towards Tessa. “Ms. Whipschnapps, may I help you with those bags?” Karen could hear him from here.
“Man, this place is great. Am I glad my parents sent me here, or what?” Karen wasn’t speaking to anyone, just xemself. “Guess I’d better find a place to sleep soon.” Karen walked off in the direction of a dorm, hoping to find a nice bed for xemself. Tormenting people was exhausting.
