Yue Ciel's Story

Yue had already been at the mansion quite awhile and was amazed with the turnout so far... Or was... Considering that now she was lost somewhere in the mansion after leaving on a quest to find the owners and say hello... Thinking about it now she regretted that decision greatly. She turned down another hall feeling confused until the sound of people's voices met her ears. At last she was back to square one. Feeling eager at the sound of new voices she set off down the hall at a faster pace her Japanese style sandals making there clipity clop noise all the way.

Yue was actually dressed fairly American today but her style did show a little of her Japanese heritage. Such as the ring she wore around her right ear... and her grandmothers bracelet... and well her sandals... Aside that she was dressed in loose and comfy cotton green pants and a loose cotton white tank-top. Yue preferred comfort over all. The crowds voices got closer and she smiled to herself as she emerged into the room. Happily she strode about feeling a little shy sense she did not know anyone but she kept a happy smile on her face hoping to find someone who seemed in the mood to strike up a conversation with her. She moved about the crowd so swiftly she had not the time to notice she was on a collision course with someone until it was too late and she bumped right into them and recoiled falling on her butt. "I'm sorry that was my bad I wasn't looking where I was going!" She felt heat rise in her cheek's from her clumsy-ness as she finally looked up at whomever it was she ran right into...

Benjamin nodded as his reply to the tigress. Soon, he was off to tend to the family that owned the house when he saw the panda fom earlier. She seemed a kind soul compared to the other anthros he had to deal with. The thought made him grin a little there was not much time, though. The matter of checking on the snacks for everyone was at hand. Walking towards that room with the task in mind, he failed to notice her bumping into her. "D'oof!" He nearly fell forward, though he managed to keep his balance. The young lady, however, fell backwards completely, prior to apologizing frantically.

His grin returned to his features. "It's quite all right, miss. I was not alert, either." He figured he might as well befriend someone, being the only human around. The human held his hand out to help her up. "My name's Benjamin. I'm the butler of this mansion. And, who might you be?"

Yue blinked as a human hand was held out to her. She smiled and took it before standing. "Seriously sorry about running into you... And woah~ This place has a butler??? Fancy much!" She grinned and shook his hand. "I'm Yue Ciel... I came here hoping to meet people like me... But so far I've been either to awkward to say hi or lost." She laughed nervously. "I'm kinda happy there's a human around... I've never been around other anthros before except my parents... So believe it or not it's comforting to see you here Benjamin... Or Ben or sir or umm... What would you like to be called exactly???"

Benjamin was quite pleased he was not teased, for once. There was that, and there was something about this panda, something unknown. He could feel it. He could not figure it out, though. either way, he had a job to do, and a friend to help. Shrugging at her query, he answered with, "Some people call me Ben, others Benjamin. It does not matter, really." He turned to glance over at the kitchen. "Well, I believe the owners of this mansion are someplace private, right now, so if you are patient, perhaps you'd want to meet them? In the meantime, I probably should prepare the trays for the snacks to offer everyone."

Yue smiled. "Benjamin then... And I would like to meet them and thank them for organizing this..." At the man mention of food Yue's stomach let out a large growl that made her blush. "Hehehe... Some food would be nice... hey if you want I can help you... I don't really wanna stay stuck in a crowd lost and confused and helping might give me the advantage to swipe a little food... That is unless you'd get in trouble for being helped... In that case I don't want you in trouble."
