Ask Annalise!

Jade; Hi

Annalise: If you're finished with that we have dessert prepared

May: Ok

*am assortment of different cakes with extravagant designs and flavors are set on the table*

May: woah

Annalise: Do you need help deciding on one, or do you have one in mind?

May: I’m s-sorry....

Annalise: No, don't be sorry... You have no reason to apologize *gestures to the cakes* Which one do you think looks the coolest?

May: *looks at the cakes trying really hard to decide*

Annalise: Hmmm... *Glances at a cake* How about this one? *She hands May a cake with colorful icing and fruits placed in designs on it*

May: *looks at it with wonder* o-okay

Annalise: That's impressive... Are those people you created useful?

Jade: Some of them

Annalise: Why create people who are useless? It seems pointless to me

Jade; Entertainment

Annalise: Hmmm... Seems logical

Jade; Besides it’s not like they take energy

Annalise: Oh, really? That's even more fascinating

Jade: I AM a god you know

Annalise: Yes, I know, you've stated that... It's just interesting to talk to one

Jade: Kool

Annalise: I understand *nods*

May:...
Jade: You could always buy her from her owner

Annalise: How much would she be?

Jade: Probably around a thousand dollars

Annalise: *nods and turns to Raph* How much money do we have right now?
Raph: *looks through a bunch of notes and shows her a piece of paper*
Annalise: Oh... okay, thank you
Raph: *walks off*

Jade: So?

Annalise: We have enough *smiles*

Jade: Okay, thats great

Annalise: Where do I give the money?

Jade: I’ll take it to them

Annalise: If he cares so much, why out up the act?

Jade: He would NEVER, admit to anyone he actually cares. He even has himself convinced

Annalise: Wow... Is there a reason?

Jade: It’s complicated

Annalise: I see, well if I were him I wouldn't see why I would act as though I wanted to kill him...

Jade: He thinks he does

Annalise: Oh... Has he ever come close

Jade: A few times, but he is the weaker of the two

Annalise: Oh, so if he became stronger he wouldn't have to worry about dying

Jade: No, he is plenty strong. And his brother is stronger

Annalise: Okay then follow me *starts walking down the hall*

May: *follows+

Annalise: *stops in front of a dinner hall* Here we are

May: *looks around*

*there is a log table in the middle with almost every type of food you can possibly imagine*

May: *her eyes widen*

Annalise: *smiles* Would you like to sit down?

May: *nods quickly*

Annalise: *walks up to a chair and pulls it out for May* Go ahead

May: *sits down looking at all of the food*

Annalise: Indeed, are any of them aware that you made them?

Jade: Some are, some aren’t, and some are only aware when I want them to be

Annalise: Wow... Having that much power must be useful

Jade: It is

Annalise: Having that much power would make running this s**t show so much easier
*Two of her soldiers off in the distance*
Raph: *using sign language to call Jacks an idiot*
Jacks: You think I'm the idiot!?

Jade: *laughs* I’m sure it would

Annalise: Everyone else is just cookie cutter boring, which is perfectly fine... But those two are the definition of annoyance

Jade: I could do something to scare them a bit, maybe they would listen more then

Annalise: *shakes her head* No, no it's fine... They just tend to get distracted from their practices
Raph: *signing: At least I know how to actually fight*
Jacks: You a** I'll get you to that *punches Raph*

Jade: ._.

Annalise: What are some of the jobs that people you made are stuck doing?

Jade: Well there is a species called Lupin, they are raised to be servants

Annalise: Hmmm... Seems like a terrible job

Jade: Yeah, they are pretty much slaves

Annalise: What if they revolted?

Jade: They wouldn’t, the way they are raised they believe it is their only purpose in life

Annalise: Oh, wow... That's even worse

Jade: It is

Annalise: Are those the only ones?

Jade: No, but they are the best example

Annalise: *takes the plates of those who are finished*

May: *finished*

Annalise: *grabs their plate* Was it good?

May: *nods*

Annalise: *holding plates* I'm glad

May: ..

Annalise: *hands the plates to someone*

May: *not sure what to do*

Annalise: I take it you don't want to

Jade: Nope

Annalise: Hmm... Okay

Jade: =)

Annalise: *gives a small smile*

Jade: You okay?

Annalise: I was raised to think that showing a smile or happiness was weak

Jade: .-. Well that’s a big fat lie

Annalise: Leading people doesn't give me time to show emotions such as happiness or love, I'm supposed to keep a strong exterior and keep my soldiers in line

Jade: Is that really what you want?

Annalise: What would you like to eat?
*The is fruit and vegetables scattered on different plates and dishes of meats*

May: *doesn’t know how to choose*

Annalise: Oh, sorry... *Gives her a plate with a little of everything on it*

May: Th-thanks

Annalise: No problem

May: *starts eating*

Annalise: *grabs her own plate and sits down* *she begins eating*

May: *loving the food*

Annalise: *glances over at May and smiles* *continues eating*

May: *her spark comes back*

Annalise: *places the plate with the slice cake in it in front of her*

May: *looks at it*

Annalise: Are you okay?

May: *nods*

Annalise: Okay.... You don't have to eat the cake if you don't want to

May: It’s j-just so pretty

Annalise: *laughs a little* It's okay, we have stuff like this everyday

May: *takes a bite* *her eyes widen in delite*

Annalise: *smiles* *starts to eat her piece of cake*

May: *eats the cake*

Annalise: We try to make it as realistic as possible

May: *in awe*

Annalise: *grabs cotton candy from a vendor* Here try this *hands it to her*

May: ^looks at the cotton candy confused*

Annalise: It'll fast and feel the same, but it won't fill you up

May: *tries it*

*the flavor is sweet and tastes exactly how cotton candy would*
Annalise: So, is it good?

May: *has never had anything this good before* *devours it* *nods*
(Uh- I haven’t actually had cotton candy before so I have no idea how i tastes ;-;)

(It's basically just sugar spun into a cloud looking thin on a stick, and sometimes it can be flavored with strawberry or something else)
Annalise: *smiles* Good, I'm glad you like it

(Kay)
May: ... *hugs Annalise*

Taste*

Annalise: *laughs a little* How come?

Jade: Well person one is going to be king and person two wants to be king

Annalise: Hmmm... Okay

Jade: Person one doesn’t even charge person two for his crimes! He just lets his brother attempt murder

Annalise: How would someone let that slide?

Jade: They care about their brother to much-

Annalise: I understand, I may not have a sibling but I care a lot about certain people

Jade: Yeah, and want to know a secret?

Annalise: Sure, if you don't mind, that is

Jade: Nighstar, that’s the one who tries to kill his brother, secretly cares about his brother. Like if he where it succeed he would freak out and try to save evil

Him not evil*

Annalise: Okay, I'll go get it *walks off and after a couple of minutes she walks back* Here you go *hands the money to her*

Jade: Kay I will give this to him *disappears*
May:...

Annalise: *glances at May and gives a small smile*

May: S-so y-you are my o-owner now?

Annalise: Yeah, I guess so

May: O-ok

Annalise: *smiles*
Jacks: *runs up to Annalise and glances at May* Who's this?

May: *looks nervous+

Annalise: This is May, and May this is Jacks *turns to Jacks* Calm down
Jacks: Fine... Pleasure to meet you *holds out his hand*

May: H-hi *takes his hand hesitantly*

Annalise: Now... A few things I want to tell you *crouches down to be at her eye level* You don't have to call me your owner, and you don't need to constantly serve us as a slave

May: *confused*

Annalise: I know you were raised to do the opposite, but now you don't have to

May: I d-don’t understand

Annalise: Y'know how you were raised to be a servant... I want you to break the rules

May: *confused*

Annalise: *sighs* Break the rules, do what YOU want

May: Wh-what I w-want..?

Annalise: Mhm

May: B-but that’s w-wrong...

Annalise: Oh, okay.... Seems like it would be an intense fight then

Jade: Yeah

Annalise: How come no one has tried to stop them?

Jade: Because his brother makes sure nobody else gets hurt

Annalise: Oh, that's pretty cool then

Jade: yeah

Annalise: And you made these boys?

Jade: Correct

Annalise: Couldn't you make them calm down and actually show affection for them

Jade: What fun would that be?

Annalise: Oh, me neither... Would you like to try and use one of these?

May: I-if y-you are o-okay with it

Annalise: Of course I'm okay with it, what would you like to use?

May: *looks around at the weapons*

*there's axes, knives, daggers, any type of gun, and brass knuckles covering the walls*
Bailey: You don't have to pick just one, y'know

May: *doesn’t know what to pick*

Bailey: *grabs a small knife and brass knuckles* These are the easiest ones to start out with

May: Ok

Bailey: Now put these on *hands her the brass knuckles*

May: *puts them on*

Annalise: I assume you'd like to know why Raph isn't allowed to speak without using sign language

May: *shrugs*

Annalise: If he talks, anyone in his line of sight gets enveloped in this darkness and their cells slowly begin to die

May: O-oh

Annalise: Mhm... It isn't all that bad, it just depends on how much he has said or how loud he's said it

May: ..

Annalise: *nods* However... That's the only person here that has a dangerous power like that

May: *nods*

Annalise: Follow me... *walks down a few halls*

May: *follows*

Annalise: No it's not... If I'm your owner I command you to do what you want

May: I d-don’t know wh-what I want

Annalise: That's perfectly fine... I know a lot of people who don't know what they want... For now would you like me to show you around?

May: O-ok

Annalise: Okay, follow me *starts walking*

May: *follows*

Annalise: *stops in front of am armory* This is where most of the people here get their weapons.... Others, however, don't need it because of their powers

May: O-ok

Annalise: Do you have any powers?

May: *shakes her head no*

Annalise: Have you not learned to keep quiet when Raph is not covered? Go to the informy and get patched up... Now
Jacks: *walks off and begins to walk past May*

May: ...

Jacks: Hey kid... *leans against a wall* How was your first day here?

Annalise: *walks over to Raph* I need you to stay calm...
Raph: *he is shaking a bit and nods*

May: G-good

Jacks: Well, I'm glad... Right now Annalise isn't in the best of moods, trust me, so have any questions about this whole situation?

Raph: *uncovers his mouth and holds his mouth shut tight*
Annalise: It'll be okay... *takes new bandages and begins to wrap his mouth*

May: *shrugs*

Jacks: Long story short, don't get Raph to talk to you without using sign language

Annalise: *finishes wrapping him in bandages* You're done now
Raph: *signs: Thank you*

May: o-ok

Raph: *quickly walks away and into his room*
Annalise: *turns and glares at Jacks* I thought I told you to get that patched up?
Jacks: Yeah sorry... *waves at May and leaves*

May:...

Jacks: *shakes her hand and smiles*

May: *small smile*

Raph: *walks up to the group of them* *signs: Is this the new one?*
Annalise: *nods* Yes, this is May

May: *small wave*

Raph: *waves back* *signs: I'm Raph*
Jacks: *elbows Raph* I don't she knows sign language, idiot... He's Raph by the way

May: I kn-know s-sign l-language

Raph: *turns to Jacks and signs: Dumba***
Jacks: Rude...

May:...

Annalise: I'm sorry about those two, they often fight like this

May: I-I-its okay

Annalise: Compared to some of my soldiers, you could give them a run for their money in a fight

May: ...

Annalise: Is there anything else you want to try now?

May: *shrugs*

???: Madam there's a problem outside
Annalise: *turns to May* I'll be right back, you can come if you want

May: O-ok

??? & Annalise: *walks outside*
Raph: *covering his mouth with his bandages on the ground*

May: *peaks out*

Annalise: What happened? Why is he not covered?
Jacks: He was eating... And I walked up to him, told him something... And you can figure out the rest... *his arm has a huge gash through it*

May:...

Annalise: Wow... Were you taught other things?

May: *nods*

Annalise: You've probably been taught the basics of education... But where you taught how to fight or something like that?

May: *shakes her head no*

Annalise: Oh, have you ever wanted to he taught something like that?

May: *shrugs*

Annalise: If you had to choose to do anything other than serve your owner what would it be?

May: !! I c-couldn’t d-do that!

Annalise: *her eyes widen* Oh, really?

May: I-it’s w-w-wrong... m-my p-purpose is to s-serve m-my owner

Annalise: Do you know how to punch?

May: *nods*

Annalise: Okay, then try punching this *walks over to a punching bag and gestures to it*

May: *punches it lightly*

Annalise: Punch it as hard as you can

May: O-ok * punches it a bit harder *

Annalise: Have you ever hated someone?

May: *shrugs*

Annalise: Anyone you've ever slightly disliked?

May: *mumbles*

Annalise: Hm? Can you say that louder?

May: M-my o-o-old owner

Annalise: Okay, now pretend that this punching bag is your old owner and lunch it as hard as you can

May: o-okay

Annalise: *holds the punching bag from behind and waits for May to punch it*

May: *punches it, her punch is stronger than would be expected from all of the heavy lifting she has to do*

Annalise: *stumbles back a little from not expecting it to be that strong* That was amazing!

May: R-really?

Annalise: Yes, of course *smiles* You're really strong

May: *small smile*

Annalise: *gives a soft smile*

May:...

Annalise: What's your life like back where you live?

May: I-I-it c-could be w-w-worse

Annalise: From what I've heard... It seems like a terrible life to live

May:....

Annalise: But that's my opinion, you don't have to think that

May:....

Annalise: From the moment you were born you were told to be a slave, huh?

May: *nods*

Annalise: It isn't that bad right now... They could be worse

Jade: Wow

Annalise: *gives a little laugh before biting her lip to stop it* Yeah... I don't understand how they consider each other friends

Jade: I’ve seen weirder

Annalise: Really? Like what?

Jade; Well-

Annalise: *tilts her head a little* Well what?

Jade:it’s hard to explain

Annalise: Try me, I'm the smartest among these people *gestures towards a larger group of soldiers*

Jade: Well two princes, one consistently attacks and attempts to murder the other

Annalise: I'm Annalise, and you must be May, right?

May: *nods+

Annalise: Pleasure to meet you

May: *nods again*

Annalise: Where do you come from?

May: L-Lupin transmit c-center 5525

Annalise: *nods* And, I take it that's very far from here

May: *nods*

Annalise: Well, sorry for the inconvenience then, is there someone that is waiting for you?

May: M-my owner

Annalise: Hm, you have a point... Seeing people fight is often humorous

Jade: If my entire world was peaceful it wouldn’t be interesting

Annalise: Yes, that makes sense... Not everything is going to be peaceful, I've learned that

Jade: Yep

Annalise: Has anyone ever died?

Jade: I few times

Annalise: I'm sorry to hear that

Jade: Nah it’s okay

Annalise: Oh, okay... Could you bring them back?

Jade: If I wanted to

Annalise: Yes, I know... Just act carefree

May: I’ll t-try

Annalise: *nods* You don't have to get it all right on the first try... Of course I know it'll take some time, and I'll be happy to help you

May: O-ok

Annalise: Are you okay with this room though?

May: *nods*

Annalise: Okay, that's good... Would you like me to show you anywhere else?

May: *shrugs*

Annalise: Well, it's almost time for dinner... If you would like you can join us all

May: O-ok

Annalise: *points at a room* This is where the people with powers train

May: *nods+

Annalise: *walks into the room* *the room his painted all gray with no windows, only a pad on the door with a small screen and a few buttons*

May: *looks around*

Annalise: What's one spot in the world you've always wanted to see?

May: *shrugs*

Annalise: Okay then... *presses a few buttons on the pad*

May:...

*the room transforms into a brightly lit town with a few citizens walking by*

May: *looks around in wonder*

Annalise: *smiles and hugs back*

May: Th-thank you

Annalise: Of course

May:..

Annalise: *walks up to the pad and presses a button which makes the room go back to normal* Crap... I don't think I showed you your room, did I?

May: M-my room..?

Annalise: Yes, of course... You are staying here with us, aren't you?

May: I u-usually don’t g-get a room

Annalise: That's terrible... Well here you're getting a room

May: O-ok

Annalise: *faces Jacks and punches his arm hard*
Jacks: Ow! Jeez...
Annalise: Go lay down now

May:..

Jacks: *sighs and walks off*
Annalise: He is a great soldier, but jeez... He never knows when to take time to himself

May: *quiet*

Annalise: You weren't hurt, were you?

May: ...?

Annalise: Like did you talk to Raph while I was focusing on Jacks earlier?

May: *shakes her head no*

Annalise: Okay, good...

May:....

*the bed is very soft and comfortable, when she sits on it it's almost as if she sinks in a little*

May: *not used to all of this*

Annalise: Are you okay?

May: *nods*

Annalise: Okay... *Smiles and leans against the door frame*

May: *looks down*

*the floor is hardwood with a big circular carpet in the middle*

May:...

Annalise: *walks up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder* Hey... Are you sure you're okay?

May: I d-d-don’t kn-know h-how....

Annalise: If I don't my job could be taken from me and I could be without a home because of my clouded judgement due to my feelings

Jade: Oof

Annalise: *lets a small laugh go* Yes, oof indeed

Jade: ;-;

Annalise: Don't you have roles in your world that require people to not show emotions?

Jade: I guess we do

Annalise: See? It isn't that bad

Jade: Debatable

Annalise: I could be stuck doing something worse

Jade: True

Annalise: ...Hey

Jade: :)

Annalise: *gives a small, almost invisible, smile* And, who are you, if I may ask?

Jade; I am Jade

Annalise: I'm Annalise, pleasure to meet you

Jade: Pleasure to meet you as well

Annalise: *gives a small nod* And what do you do?

Jade: I’m a god

Annalise: Huh? How are you a god?

Jade: I am immortal, can create and control people, and I have unlimited powers

Annalise: It isn't about what I want... My duties are all I should be caring about

Jade: That’s stupid

Annalise: *holds in a laugh* It is, but I can't just quit and leave

Jade:Why not find someone to replace you?

Annalise: That's unheard of... Also I'm really not working with any helpful options... Raph and Jacks argue every second, and the rest don't have anything particularly special about them

Jade: Then start training someone

Annalise: I suppose that would work, but I would be considered a failure

Jade: Who cares what people think about you

Annalise: I do... I need to have a good record

Jade: Why?

Annalise: Don't know how to what?

May: do wh-what you w-want m-me to d-do...

Annalise: That's understandable, no one has treated you this way ever... All I'm doing is giving you something, I don't want anything in return

May:...

Annalise: I don't want you to feel uneasy, so do whatever makes you comfortable

May: H-how d-do I w-want th-things..?

Annalise: It's kinda like when you see something or hear of something... There's this little tug inside your that just subconsciously tells you you want it

May:...

Annalise: Sorry, I really don't know how to explain it

May: I o-only know h-how to s-serve

Annalise: *smiles* Follow me *starts walking through the halls*

May: *follows*

Annalise: *stops in front of a door* *opens it and moves out of the way to let May in* *the room has a big bed in it with light pink silk sheets and matching curtains*

May: *lets out a small gasp*

Annalise: If you want we can add or take out anything you'd like

May: *hugs Annalise*

Annalise: *hugs back* I'm glad you like it

May: Th-thank you

Annalise: It's the least I could do, now let me know if you want anything added

May: *sits down on the bed*

Annalise: *walks over to May* Sorry about that

May: I-it’s o-ok

Annalise: Jacks is really stubborn... *sighs and laughs a little* Did Raph look okay when he walked by?

May: *nods*

Annalise: Okay, that's good at least...

May:…

Annalise: *gives a warm smile* Anything you wanna do?

May: *shrugs*

Annalise: *thinking*
Jacks: Hey! It's all fixed! *his arm is covered in bandages*

May:...

Annalise: Hmm... Did they buy you?

May: *nods*

Annalise: Oh... Wow, she wasn't lying...

May:...

Annalise: What happens if you break a rule?

May: *looks down*

Annalise: Oh... I'm sorry for asking that, you don't have to answer that

May:....

Annalise: You don't need to be nervous... I'm not gonna do anything

May: O-ok

Annalise: Ah, makes sense then

Jade; Want to meet one?

Annalise: Sure

Jade: Hmm, Musk, Sage, or May

Annalise: It doesn't matter to me

Jade: I’ll do May then, she represents her population the best

Annalise: Okay, sounds good

imgflip.com/i/4skmd9
May: *appears* *looks around startled*

Annalise: *sets her axe and other weapons down* Hello

May: H-hi
