Charlotte had grown awfully tired of doing things herself lately. So tired that she hired the maid again! The maid which she forgot the name of. No matter how hard Charlotte tried to remember it she just couldn't seem to wrap her head around it. The help had never been a big concern fo hers, maybe she should name her? Perhaps if she gave her the name she might remember it! "Well I think I've decided to give you a new name." Charlotte said, not really caring about what her response might be. She took a finger to her lip and thought for just a few seconds before pointing her finger at the maid and declaring her new name. "I think I'll call you... useless. It's perfect, it really speaks numbers about your capabilities." Charlotte said with a giggle. Now that was a name she would not forget. It was just too fitting. This time Charlotte had hired her yet again to come along on a job and this one was considerably more dangerous.
She really hoped that 'useless' was prepared to do all the work. Maybe then she could earn a different name, or maybe some respect in Charlotte's eyes. Last time she wasn't that impressed. She couldn't even carry her all the way!? What good is a maid if they don't do your bidding! Or if they are some crazy acid skin weirdo. Yuck. Who on earth would dedicate themselves to that magic? Acid? Blood? It seemed to Charlotte like she was just the opposite of a maid but nonetheless she got the job done. "This time you aren't using acid and you are going to carry me. Do you understand that?" Charlotte's tone was very condescending, she treated the maid as if she was a child. It was made very clear she was talking down to her. After all, what is Charlotte if not superior?
Aside from that, Charlotte needed to get down to business. She couldn't afford to play around and this delightful conversation had already wasted a lot of their time. Even though that was partially her fault, she wouldn't take the blame. "Less talking, more working. You know what you need to do! The spirit cages." Charlotte didn't truly understand all that the job entailed, she just accepted it because of the reward. After all, that was the most important part! Especially if she wasn't the one really doing it though she would reap the benefits from it! That was always how it worked with Charlotte. She only really did things when it benefited her and even then she'd have someone else do it for her. Being rich and privileged taught her that there is always someone desperate enough to do anything for you, so long as you have the money to force their hand.
