[ The video turns on to a rather preoccupied looking Ella at home, resting her chin in her hands. She's been working her tail off on behalf of Hattie which in turn made her flake on Byakuya and she hated it. But that's not why she looked distracted. ]

Ever have the feeling that you forgot something really important?

Or even something minor, actually. Just - something. But you can't for the life of you remember what that is?

[ Beat. ]

Er ... Excluding those who ...actually have amnesia. I mean things like forgetting appointments, or where you left a brush or something.

[ Like why in the he-ck she was cooperating with Hattie's stupid business and ignoring her duties to her actual job. She KNOWS Hattie is deliberatly picking clients who want the same timeslot she's supposed to work for him. ]

Oh this is going to bother me all day, heh. I guess I could write down a list of- [ She glances at her calendar briefly, then pauses and looks again. ]

Oh.

[ Awkward pause, and then a laugh. ]

Well that's one mystery solved. [ She's ... just going to turn her feed off now. Eesh. ]

At a school. I'm a tutor. It's not so wonderful, I promise.

You don't say! I work (..well, worked) for Byakuya at one of the universities. What are you tutoring?

I suppose it would be difficult - I understand the position is pretty thankless.

Yes, rather. I'm tutoring in French and History, it frequently does feel as though I'm teaching them against their will, yes.

[ Snerk, Poor Dorian. ]

I'm sure you must have some good students who are grateful for what you teach them. They can't all be ungrateful.

My best friend was teaching me French, before he ...left the city.

If they were, they wouldn't need tutoring.

Ah... I'm sorry to hear that. I... could help you if you wanted.

[ella_of_frell]

You're... probably right.

[ And brightening at the latter. ]

You could? That would be wonderful, I'd really appreciate that, thank you!

[mostbeautiful]

You're very welcome! I look forward to your company. It will be an utter delight, a brilliant change from the usual adolescent trash.

[ella_of_frell]

Adolescent trash is a bit much wouldn't you say? They're just children.

Anyway, when would you like to tutor me? I don't know if you have something already arranged for tutorials, but if you aren't adverse to it, you can come to my home in Sector 5.

[mostbeautiful]

I'd love to come to your home and tutor you. That would be delightful. I spent quite a bit of time in Paris, so we should do quite well.

[ella_of_frell]

Wonderful - I didn't know that you spent time in Paris. What is it like?

[mostbeautiful]

It's a marvel. You would love it. I would like to show it to you sometime.

[ella_of_frell]

That would be lovely - but I'm afraid that would be rather difficult, so long as we're trapped in a place like this.
