Here to Serve
[ The Awataguchi family is rather wealthy, so it doesn't come as much of a surprise that they'd have servants. Of course, they come and go, as would any employee. As a part of growing into new responsibilities, among them is managing new servants and instructing them of their duties, Honebami is given charge of a new maid hired into the household. They also have to learn when the service is genuine, or if someone was hired previously to act as a spy... Not that it's likely. It's just something to keep in mind, as other families drag in such gossip. ]
...
[ Honebami knows there's more to it than that, however. He's a reserved young man despite his responsibilities, and his brothers worry about him. They're hoping that perhaps he'd open up through having someone by his side more often, as he is unwilling to trouble his brothers. A servant may be a different case, as they would have to do this as an occupation. ]
You can come in. Kunihiro, is it?
[ Honebami is sitting on a sofa in the main living room, meant as an are to greet guests. His head is turn towards the entrance from the hallway, but his face remains stoic. He doesn't know much about this new hire, the profile of her was a little sparse. Almost suspiciously so, but that has yet to be questioned. ]

At his new boss calls him in, he take a moment to breathe in. And enters the room in his new uniform.
A blonde maid walks toward Honebami, until "she's" standing at a respectable distance from him. "She" looks a little awkward, but her turquoise eyes meet Honebami's.]
Hello. Yes, I am Kunihiro.
no subject
Ah... "her" eyes are beautiful though. At least it's clear that Honebami is captivated somewhat. He then looks the maid over, not finding anything unusual quite yet. She looks a little uncomfortable, but that may be because she's new to the job. The dress might also be something she's not used to, since it's a bit of a formality with how the family likes uniforms. Something about keeping everything orderly. ]
It's nice to meet you. My name is Honebami. Honebami Toushirou.
[ His voice is so even, it might as well be monotone. Thankfully, he has some subtle expressions. Standing up, he gestures to the door, wanting her to follow him. Standing still in a large room feels intimidating for them both, most likely. He doesn't know how to make this more welcoming, but he'd like to try. ]
Let's take a walk around the manor.
no subject
He bows. Honebami... he'll remember that.]
A pleasure to meet you... Master Honebami.
[And he need to get used to that as well. As well as the manor, so it's time for that walk.]
Ye-Yes, let's.
