In which Cecile gives Hugo a tour of the grounds of Budehuc.



-----
Cecile: *approaches Hugo's door and knocks authoritatively* Sir Hugo-! :O

Hugo: *random noises can be heard from his room before the door opens.* Hello. Cecile! Hi! Look, I'm awake!

Cecile: *does not notice the random noises and waves her arms enthusiastically* I can see that!!! Is there anywhere you'd like me to show you first?

Hugo: Um...not that I can think of, but I thought maybe we could end at Granny Taki's? I can get us something to eat. *rummages around in his pockets*
Hugo: See! I still have some potch left! *holds up handful of potch and lots of lint*

Cecile: *interested more by the lint than the potch* Do not worry--I shall get you something nice to eat. ^^

Hugo: Let's go then!

Cecile: OkAY!! *grabs Hugo by the hand and cheerfully half-leads, half-drags him down the hallway*
Cecile: So many lovely new buildings have gone up since you were gone!! But...there are some not-so-lovely buildings as well. :S

Hugo: What do you mean not-so-lovely? *passes by something interesting* Hey - what's that?

Cecile: I mea--eh? *stops short and looks to see what caught his interest*

Hugo: *points* That thing.

Cecile: *looks* What thing? o.o

Hugo: That door. *points again* It looks funny.

Cecile: Ah...that is Sir Hikusaak's room. ._.' But it might not be for long. If he misbehaves, I will have to change his room so he won't get to see his nice window anymore! :O

Hugo: *narrows his eyes* Oh.
Hugo: But yeah - you said there were some not-so-nice buildings?

Cecile: Ah--*quickly regains her train of thought and resumes leading him down the hallway* I was thinking mostly about Sir Joker's new dojo. -_-; It's...questionable.

Hugo: Hmm...do people actually go there? I'd think people would rather go to Juan's dojo.

Cecile: *waves her arms, nearly smacking him in the face with her shield* Of course they would!! Sir Joker has such horrid ideas about drinking and ketchup...*shudders*

Hugo: *ducks just in time*
Hugo: Where are we going first?

Cecile: Ahm...Oh!!! Most of the new buildings are outside--*leads him down the front staircase*--so I'll give you a tour of the grounds!

Hugo: Okay! Whatever happened to Bite?

Cecile: o.o ....
Cecile: ...Sir Yuber...I think he killed Bite. o_O But Bite did have little...baby...Bites...I do not honestly know what happened to them. ._.'

Hugo: *shudders* I shouldn't have asked.

Cecile: ^^; That is okay. I can understand you being curious. Even with him gone, you should still stay cautious though.

Hugo: Right. Constant vigilance. I can do that!

Cecile: *leads him out the front door and skips down the steps* Of course!! :O Anyone can if they really wish to. And you have motivation, whereas Juan has none. >_>

Hugo: *looks around*

Cecile: *still dragging him along by the hand, leads him past the lottery stand and the rune shop* Sir Hugo, did you see lots of new places when you were traveling??

Hugo: Not too many. A lot of the places I saw were places I'd already been, like Chisa.

Cecile: Ohh.... but at least you did not get lost on the way back!!

Hugo: Nope. Fubar really knows where he is going in the Grasslands. We don't like going to Vinay del Zexay too much though -- there are lots of adventurers in that area.

Cecile: I...don't like Vinay very much either anymore. .__.' *shuffles by the the appraisal shop*

Hugo: What's this beside the appraisal shop? *points with his free hand*

Cecile: Oh!! That is Sir Gordon's supply shop! But since he's been away for a while, we were making space for someone to move in.

Hugo: Wow, I can't believe how many shops went up since I left. Thomas must have been so busy with all the building and stuff.

Cecile: *beams proudly* He has been very organized and cares greatly about everyone here.

Hugo: *smiles* I agree!

Cecile: *pleased with his response, she leads him past Juan's dojo and towards Taki's bakery* Oh--!! Sir Hugo, I have been meaning to ask you something.

Hugo: *bites lip* O-kay.

Cecile: o.o You do not eat any of Sir Sasuke's soup, do you?

Hugo: Um, huh?
Hugo: *is very confused* I don't think I have, why?

Cecile: Oh, GOOD!!! You MUSTN'T eat his soup, okay?!?

Hugo: O-kay. *lets breath out with relief*

Cecile: *blinks* What is wrong?

Hugo: Oh, I just thought you were going to ask me something else, that's all.

Cecile: ...? Oh!! Was it about your birthday?! ._.' I do not remember when it is.

Hugo: No, my birthday's not until *holds out and counts on his fingers* Monday.

Cecile: o______o ---?!?!??!
Cecile: *flails* I'm so glad you told me NOW!!!! If I had not asked I would not have found out until it was too late!! ;_;

Hugo: *blushes* It's no big deal, Cecile. Don't tell anyone, okay.

Cecile: *baffled* But...why? Birthdays are such wonderful events. It should be a special day.

Hugo: I just don't want anyone to make a big deal out of it, that's all.

Hugo: *looks at his feet nervously*

Cecile: ...I see. Well, rest assured, I shall keep it a secret!! :O But that does not mean I will not get you something lovely, for you deserve it! *nods*

Hugo: *blushes* Thanks Cecile. And thank you for the tour so far!

Cecile: It is no problem at all!! ^_^ *bows apologetically after a moment* However, I do not think Granny Taki's bakery is open at the moment. I could show you the building though--it is very lovely.

Hugo: Okay! That sounds good. Afterwards, could you help me find Sir Mathiu's infirmary? I said I would help him out.

Cecile: *continues walking towards the bakery* Ah, of course. *solemnly* I am very worried about Sir Louis. ;_;

Hugo: I heard that he is lucky he was found when he was. And I know it is serious, because Percival is very serious and concerned, and he usually seems so happy.

Cecile: *nods, listening* ...Sir Louis was very kind when I had to leave and could not fill my post for a while.

Hugo: Have you heard if they know how it happened?

Cecile: *shakes her head sadly* No...I do not know much of anything about it. But I believe Sir Colton was somehow involved.

Hugo: *sighs*

Cecile: ..*sympathetically* Do not worry--there are all sorts of ways you can help Sir Louis feel better! :O

Hugo: Yeah, I know. I just can't help thinking that this is the beginning of something bad. *shudders* Let's not think about that though, okay? *Hugo smiles but it isn't really genuine*

Cecile: ...I...ah, okay. *does not push the topic further and reaches the bakery, letting go of his hand* See? It looks like a big cupcake. ^^; Taki designed it herself.

Hugo: It makes me hungry just looking at it!

Cecile: *grins* I am sure if you said that around her she would give you plenty to eat! :O

Hugo: *beams* And I wouldn't say no to that!
Hugo: Would you? Granny Taki's baking is so good.

Cecile: *nods fervently* She has been giving me baking lessons!!!

Hugo: *looks very impressed* Good for you! What kind of things can you make?

Cecile: Uhm... ._.' I...Imadeacake.

Hugo: Well, it didn't turn into something like Bite, right? That's gotta mean something.

Cecile: Oh, nothing like that. But...*fiddles with her hands* ...I was very proud of it. ._.'

Hugo: *smiles*

Cecile: *clears her throat* Is there any place else you would like to see?

Hugo: Um... *scratches his head as he thinks*

Cecile: *smiles brightly* Do not worry. Most of the places you needed to see we passed along the way, except for Sir Joker's dojo.

Hugo: We'll have to come back when Granny Taki is open so we can get some treats together.

Cecile: Oh--!! :O That would be very nice. I will have to speak with her about that.

Hugo: I keep meaning to visit her, but then I keep falling asleep. Like, the other day, I was going to see her, but then I found Fubar, and we took a nap. Rody told me that when I get sleepy, I should try standing on my head. Do you think that would work?

Cecile: Oh...well...*blinks* I do not know for certain. If Rody says so, it must be correct. When I was having difficulty sleeping he told me to walk around in circles.

Hugo: Did it work?

Cecile: Well...no, but I think it was because I was having nightmares. A-and besides, I was not going to go to sleep ever again, at least I thought so.

Hugo: Hmmm....*yawns, then stands on his head*

Cecile: *backs away, startled* --!! S-Sir Hugo?

Hugo: *face goes red* I think its working. Do you think its working?
Hugo: *seems to be maintaining his balance, until he starts to wrinkle his nose and....* ACHOO!
Hugo: *Hugo tumbles over and lands in a heap on the grass*

Cecile: *flails* Are you okay?!?

Hugo: *bursts out laughing*

Cecile: o///o?! A-are you injured? Are you ill? Did you break anything?!?

Hugo: No, no - I'm okay! It's just....I don't feel like sleeping anymore! It worked! *laughs* Although, if I keep doign that, I doubt anyone would take me seriously.

Cecile: *still unconvinced* I do not think it is healthy for you at all. You were turning all red! ;_;

Hugo: *gets up and dusts himself off* Really, I'm okay! *ruffles his hair up a bit* Don't worry.

Cecile: Oh..o-okay. ._.' *makes mental note to have quicker reflexes next time he falls over*

Hugo: ... So, what now Cecile?

Cecile: Ah....*looks around* I do not know. x_x; I did not plan for Granny Taki to be away, so I suppose I can walk you back to your room. ^^

Hugo: Okay. *is at a loss for words*

Cecile: *cheerfully takes him by the hand again, taking an alternate route back to his room* Is there anything I can do to help you navigate the castle grounds better?

Hugo: I think...I think I should be okay. I have this *brings out a spatula* Mamie gave it to me. Although, I'm not quite sure why.

Cecile: *blinks, then understands in dawning realization* Ah....do you not like Sir Albert?

Hugo: Oh. *looks at ground and pauses* We don't get along....at all.

Cecile: Ah...well, Miss Mamie does not like Sir Albert very much at all. Perhaps she wanted you to have a spatula because you share similar feelings?

Hugo: Maybe. Actually, I think that's it. But is the spatula some sort of talismen?

Cecile: *furrows her brow, ascending the staircase* Uhm...Miss Mamie likes to use her spatula for cooking and as a weapon. o.O You might want to ask her about that.

Hugo: *understanding finally dawns on him*

Cecile: Do not worry; I am sure she will be your friend--! *reaches the top of the staircase and almost tips over a potted plant* x_x;;

Hugo: *uses his sometimes lightning fast reflexes to steady the potted plant*

Cecile: o o! *watches, impressed, then realizes it was her own fault and bows repeatedly in apology*

Hugo: No, no. It's okay! *smiles* I had fun on the tour!

Cecile: *relief* You did? I hope so; I did not want to bore you.

Hugo: I don't think I could ever be bored when I'm with you!

Cecile: *blinks, taken aback* Ah...then that is good! :O I am glad you feel that way. I think I confuse people sometimes. ._.'

Hugo: *shrugs* I guess some people just aren't used to being around you maybe?

Cecile: ¬¬ That excuse does not work for Juan.

Hugo: *scratches head*

Cecile: *smiles apologetically* I have known Juan all my life--he cannot say he is not accustomed to being around me. ^^;

Hugo: What is he chewing on all the time?

Cecile: Why, his relaxation herb, of course!! *leads Hugo down the hallway back to his room* It helps calm his nerves and sleep better.

Hugo: Oh, that makes sense, I guess.

Cecile: ^^ *reaches the door and bows courteously* I am glad you were able to see more of Budehuc, Sir Hugo.

Hugo: Thank you so much for showing it to me Cecile. *opens his bedroom door* I hope we're able to get to Granny Taki's together soon.

Cecile: That would be very nice. *smiles and bows again* Do not concern yourself too much about Sir Albert, okay?

Hugo: Okay, I won't. Bye Cecile!

Cecile: *waves, hurrying back to her post*

Hugo: *watches Cecile hurry away, goes back to trying to repair some of his belongings*
