December, 1792

Sir Percy is away on pressing 'business in his Derbyshire estate' these last few days, and so Marguerite, conveniently, has the run of the Richmond Manor in order to prepare for this, her first visitation from her Language Instructor

Sonya had 'ordered' some early regency clothing about a week prior to their first lesson in order to get used to moving about it in. Besides blending in, it was pointless to teach a young woman to 'fight' in regency clothing if she herself was still in modern gear, and so learning how to move in it was detrimental. It wasn't as bad as she thought it would be, provided the clothing was as simple as it could be. She did not that foot work would be limited from the skirts, and the corset hampered upper body movement, but it was nothing she couldn't work around given time.

She'd actually recieved a 'memo' from bar when she stepped down that morning, so when Marguerite arrived in that bar that day, Sonya was already dressed, a bag of language books and supples on the table and some mats rolled up next to her chair.

"Lieutenent Blade," Marguerite says effusively as she catches sight of her intended target, immediately heading that way. "You look completely charming!"

That was actually a nice thing to say-considering she felt more like a girl playing dress up.

Sonya stood from the table, hever sack with books and papers over her shoulder, and rolled up straw mats over the other.

"I feel rather out of place, but then I just tell myself that it's to blend it. Just lead the way."

Marguerite wouldn't be the darling of London society if she didn't know how to say the right thing. She inclines her head.

"I can assure you that you won't be out of place in Blakeney Hall when it is just the two of us. If you're ready, we can go straight there. Will you need any help with your heavy bag?"

The door opens right out into the hallway of Blakeney Manor, which is currently empty.
