Don't tell me you're rich.

[outsidebones]

No, not whatsoever.

[but she is noble.]

[guestservices]

Okay, because you talk like someone who's never had to worry about money. Just saying.

[outsidebones]

Hmm. Well, I was being somewhat facetious. I'm aware many people work for money.

As for myself, I have had to worry about...resources, one would say. But I have never been employed by someone for pay. I oversee my House, and my House, though of ancient lineage, is small and poor. It has been my duty, since I was ten years old, to ensure that each year we have enough to feed and clothe and keep warm every person who serves me, and often this was accomplished by very narrow margins.

[guestservices]

[a beat]

And this is why you couldn't pay me to be responsible for other people's lives. Sounds like too much of a hassle.

[outsidebones]

Ah. Spoken as someone who has never had to worry about a sense of duty, perhaps?

[guestservices]

Nope, can't relate. I only look out for myself.

[outsidebones]

So you must have your own motivations for being a staff member?

[guestservices]

You need to work to survive, don't you?

[outsidebones]

And your goal is to ensure your own survival?

[guestservices]

Yeah. [said flippantly.] Any issues with that?
