Jennifer sat silently as Frost worked, her eyes wandering tirelessly over the meticulous work that the blue mage performed, her hands idle in her lap. She wanted desperately to tell her of how the prinnies longed to help her, but she knew that she couldn't break their trust and she kept silent until spoken to.
"That's too bad..." She mumbled, hearing of the females fallen castle; her head shaking idly at the question posed. "I.. no, they did not. They only stopped for a moment, to see what the commotion was.. the newest prisoner; then they went to clean a room for another guest.."

Frost looked over the work she'd done. The room itself sparkled now, a place fit for a king - or Overlord, rather. But the human didn't look the part.
"I will draw your bath." The blue mage turned and walked towards another door, one that Jennifer hadn't noticed. It opened into a modest little bathroom, its tub and toilet squeaky clean as if it had just been washed.
Frost watched as the water and soap combined into little bubbles, making sure everything was just right before drawing away. "It's ready. I shall prepare your meal now."

Jennifer nodded her head to the blue mage as she re-entered the room, the scent of the soap which was used in the water sweet smelling and inviting. She leaned away from the bed she had been perched atop and she wandered into the small bathroom. It wasn't much, compared to the one she had at home, but she would make do. She closed the door behind her, but not before calling out her thanks to Frost and she stripped down; slipping into the warm water.
"This is nice..." She murmured, sinking into the water until it was up to her neck, only her head bobbed above the suds. She washed slowly, letting the water soothe her nerves as the mage prepared her dinner. It was nice ot be pampered, but how long would it last? She was a prisoner, not a guest. "Hmm..." She let her thoughts trail back to Gordon and wondered when he would show up, then back to Frost and how she had lost her home to the monster who had taken Jennifer captive as well.
When she had finished bathing, she climbed out of the tub, letting the water drip off of her and she searched for a towel; drying herself modestly before pulling back on the clothes she had been wearing before the bath and she made her way back out into the room to wait for her dinner.

Frost returned a half hour later with Jennifer's meal, concealed in a dome of polished silver. The smells of meat sifted through the air.
She set a tray in front of the woman, and put the platter before her. A steak and some sort of leafy vegetable greeted Jennifer's senses.
"Dragon steak. I hope it's to your liking."

Jennifer seated herself at the meager table centered in the room and she placed her hands in her lap as the domed platter was set before her. The lid was removed carefully and she mused at the meal, nothing she had ever had looked quite as delicious; but there was far too much for her to consume herself.
"Frost...?" She asked softly, her eyes moving from the food to the female who had prepared it for her. "Would you like to eat with me? There's far too much for me to eat by myself..." Her words were sincere as was the look in her eyes, she truly wanted to speak with the girl, to make friends with her; she needed all the support she could get while stuck in this cell.

Frost eyed the human carefully. Join her..? Jennifer's words seemed sincere, but she could just be bluffing to get secrets, or to get closer to her to kill her. She certainly had the strength to.
Yet, a friendly gesture like this was so rare. She felt that tug at her heart again. Stupid emotions, clouding judgement..
"If you wish." She sat beside her and waited.

Jennifer smiled up at the blue mage as she hesitated, knowing that it must be hard for her to trust after she had been overthrown once in her lifetime; maybe more. A soft sigh of relief escaped her lips as the other female seated herself at the table and she carefully cut the meat into two equal pieces, offering one to Frost; keeping the other for herself.
"Mmm.. It's good!" She mused after sampling the dragon meat, never having tasted something so delectable. "So.. tell me about yourself..." She murmured softly as she ate, her fingers constantly moving to cut the meat and feed her mouth as her eyes trained on the mage.

Frost took a sample of the meat. It was all right; not her best. But the human seemed to like it, so it would make do for now.
She froze momentarily at the human's question. No one had really attempted to get this close to her. No one except...
"I am the Head Maid of this castle. That is all I am," Frost finally answered.

Jennifer could sense the hostility in Frosts voice, her slow response letting on that she was nervous. Jennifer had never spent much time with other girls and didn't really know how to approach her to make her talk, Frost didn't seem the type to say much more than what was necessary.
"Oh, that sounds boring.. I build robots..." She said idly, her eyes wandering around the room in a slight daze as she picked at her food and thought of Thursday. "I miss them.."

Frost stayed silent for awhile, watching Jennifer picking at her food. Robots, eh. The human must be a smart girl. Was there another reason for Baal keeping her here?
Those silly random thoughts filed into her head again. Wasn't that why she was here too?
"Perhaps Baal-sama desires you to build some."
She stood and looked down at her. "My apologies. I should get back to work."
