"Talk"

'Thought'
____________
"Please, Mademoiselle, allow me to light up a safe path for us."

Jerry Orbach, also known as the "Fiery Love of Hestia," used his semblance to summon floating candles made from pure light and fire. He spread them out and flew away. Not only did the entire group see the once dark tunnel of the cave, which seemed to have been a mining area, but the floating candles also led and created a path so they wouldn't get lost.

"Thank you."

Blake, even though her thanks were genuine and appreciated what Orbach had done, she was still focused on the mission and task at hand, so it might have come off as a bit cold and slightly impatient, quickly walking forward, with Circe and Angela Lansbury by her side, with Tim Curry and Paul Reubens close behind.

"It seems she's still worried about her Son."

The one who stayed a bit behind, besides the Fiery Hestia, was David Ogden Stiers, also known as the "Timeless Butler"; he stood next to his fellow Nyx members as they watched their Mistress walk forward without slowing down.

"I don't blame her, any caring parent would."

Jerry sighs and shakes his head, as he and his partner walk forward to follow the rest of the group, not wanting to be left behind.

"But to go to such lengths, to personally save her child herself, I can never imagine such a thing."

Jerry looks back at Blake Belladonna, though he knew her as Bureiku Beradon'na, the same person he once thought capable, but not "This Capable." It truly made him confused and unsure about what he truly thought of her, a feeling shared by Ogden.

"Though isn't that the reason why you found our Lady so beautiful when we first met her?"

But despite such uncertainty, it didn't stop David from admiring his lady, even bringing up how Orbach and he met the cat faunus, which made him reminisce and think about the past.

/Flashback\

"Remember, this is the first day on the job in serving the Great Priestess of Fortuna, so please don't embarrass me with your, "Fiery Personality", alright?"

David and his so-called "Fiery Personality" friend could be seen standing before the front entrance of a simple mansion. Both gentlemen seemed to be preparing themselves and making sure to look proper before entering such a place.

"I know how to handle myself, you should be more worried about yourself."

Jerry used a portable brush to straighten and fix his own hair, all while talking back to his partner.

"I do not have anything to fix about myself."

David crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes at French men.

"Should I remind you of your constant whining of being on time?"

Jerry huffs as he puts away his brush.

"Is there something wrong with having a schedule and making sure to follow it?"

David raised an eyebrow at such a claim.

"We shall see when you annoy our new Mademoiselle with it~"

Jerry mocks and teases his fellow butler, who just sighs and shakes his head in response. Once they felt more confident and prepared, they decided it was time to meet their mistress. Knocking on the door, they waited to be accepted. Luckily, it didn't take long, as the door opened, revealing a certain lady in waiting.

"Ah, you must be the new hires, Sir David and Jerry I believe?"

Angela was able to instantly recognize and knew who the two gentlemen were at the front door.
