[The thing is that Ken's probably going to hear Peach before he ever sees her given that with every step she makes the bell around her neck jingles. It's very hard to be a sneaky kitty when your sisters make you wear a bell. Regardless, it's almost like she was waiting outside of the room because the moment Ken rings the pink bell, she enters the study and smiles.]
But also, Ken bows and she bows back? That's definitely how that works.]
That's right! Any time you ring one of our bells, we'll appear right away. [Probably. Pumpkin pending.] We're here to serve our guests and help them with anything they need.
[ he's going to have to ring each one of them and see how soon they show up and maybe meet them all too. even plum again. ]
Oh, um, the food you made... [ his smile drops into an apologetic smile. ] I can't seem to taste it. Sorry I can't appreciate all the time you spent on it.
[Please bother her sisters. She looks a bit puzzled by the apologetic look, and even moreso when Ken goes on to say that.]
There's no taste...? [Troublesome...] I wonder if it's the recipe. I could make you something else if you'd like? It would be no trouble at all, I don't mind.
[ everyone needs to stop making plum go out in the wilderness, because her maid uniform looks very silly outside. still, this time, Ken can probably see her come when he rings her bell ... because she has to walk all the way from the house.
[Ken rings the bell in front of the Master bedroom and...the door swings open? It's a little dark inside, but it seems as though there's something of a living room/guest area that he's entering. He can't quite see yet, but soon he'll hear a soft, echo-y voice as chills run up his spine.]
[They're going to turn and look over their shoulder. Is there another guest they should be addressing? "Both"???]
Nice to meet you. [The tone is tentative like they're trying out the sentence. Have a seat wherever you want, Ken! Blue will stay right here on the floor.]
[ oh. hm.... guess the echo-y voice is just them being them, but of all the places he can sit, he's going to sit next to Blue. he's a boy on a mission..!! ]
Sorry for intruding, but I wanted to talk to you about the memory I saw about how you got here.
[This time when the bell rings at the door, it swings open and the lights are on. Blue seems to be sitting on the floor again and filling out some notecards.]
[ bless, now enter ken who is sporting a fashionable new pin on his zipper vest and with a stack of some origami paper under his arm. he looks a little worse for wear but doing his best!! for blue. who probably saw the whole thing but...
either way he'll join them on the floor and notice all of the cards. anything particularly special about them? ]
[NO...oh no...anyway Blue blinks up at him curiously because yes Blue saw everything. If they're going to pretend this isn't a bad day then they can do that! Anyway, Ken will probably recognize them as the "evening, unavailable, leave a message" standard notes Blue sends to people when they don't see them face to face.]
Mail time. [They nod as if this explains everything.] Lots of messages, lots of people. [And then, belatedly.] Welcome back.
[ mail time, is good enough for ken since, well, it does explain plenty to him in regards to everything that has happened. sometimes, it's better to just the most simplest things. ]
Thanks, I did say that I'd come back.
[ he'll take note of the unavailable messages. ]
And a lot of messages is a good thing, isn't it? It means people want to talk to you.
[ he says with a nod and brings out a piece of paper to slowly start to fold into the same of an animal. he's been practicing a few in particular the most..!!! ]
And isn't talking to us a good thing? Especially, since we all know that we need to help you now if we ant to escape. I bet you might get more people to knock on your door, too.
[ though ken is still wary about what will happen to blue when they're "free". ]
[ ;lske;lrk zia.... anyway, here comes ken with shib ears and a tail happily wagging his tail. oh, and of course, his latest new accessory an all too familiar pin on his zipper. and per the course with his greetings with her, he'll give her a little bow. ]
Hello Plum, how are you today? Are you feeling better?
[ let me have this. She's looking at his ears a little because now ken is one of them... and there's a glance at his pin before she answers with her own curtsy ]
I am well, sir. There's no need to worry. [ she's resolutely ignoring anything that happened yesterday involving any part of the house being set on fire, again ] Was there something you wished to talk about?
W0, Monday
Good afternoon, sir! How can I help you today?
no subject
ken had rung the bell out of curiosity (he plans on only doing one at a time just to play it safe). ]
Oh!
[ he unconsciously gives her a bit of a bow. ]
Did you appear because I rang the bell?
no subject
But also, Ken bows and she bows back? That's definitely how that works.]
That's right! Any time you ring one of our bells, we'll appear right away. [Probably. Pumpkin pending.] We're here to serve our guests and help them with anything they need.

he'll nod his head once but them brighten up when she offers. ]
If it wouldn't be trouble for you to do so. Oh, and Kurusu doesn't seem to be able to taste anything either.
[ please save them from eating dirt, i guess. ...though it might be too late at the same time. ]

Hello Blue, I'm back.

What are you doing there?

And a lot of messages is a good thing, isn't it? It means people want to talk to you.
[ hopefully they're all nice messages too. ]

The notes were shared...it was expected. [But they shake their head.] This is more guests than I've spoken to in some time.
no subject
[ he says with a nod and brings out a piece of paper to slowly start to fold into the same of an animal. he's been practicing a few in particular the most..!!! ]

Hello Plum, how are you today? Are you feeling better?
[ HE WANTS TO APOLOGIZE FOR THE MESS ALREADY. ]
no subject
I am well, sir. There's no need to worry. [ she's resolutely ignoring anything that happened yesterday involving any part of the house being set on fire, again ] Was there something you wished to talk about?
no subject
[ sorry not sorry??? ]
Oh, well, I made some for Blue yesterday but I wanted to give one to you, too.
[ presenting, a purple paper rabbit for plum. he worked hard on this one. ]
no subject
[ oh, well. she's distracted by the origami and peers at it before delicately grabbing it and holding it in her hands, careful not to crinkle it ]
... Thank you, sir. You didn't have to. [ ... ] It is very well made.
[ she's still examining it. bunny... ]
