[ dimitri's not left waiting too long! aquila appears in a swirl of shadow when they are called upon. they're the same as they were at the party, sporting a pair of pitch black wings, and matching, pitch black and clawed hands. they're holding the tea cup in one of them. ]

Dimitri! Lord Dimitri? Whichever. Morning. How can I help you?

[overruns]

[ claws and teacup aesthetic is very cute

dimitri quickly waves a hand. ]

Just Dimitri is fine. [ he prefers it and also the thought of correcting people of his proper title makes him want to die ] Thank you for your time. I was hoping to ask you a few questions.

[guestservices]

Dimitri, then.

[ there's a warmth to their tone, as they lift the teacup in a cheers. ] Nobody ever comes for a social call, huh. [ teasing. ] What can I help you with?

[overruns]

I think yesterday was as social an event as I can manage...

[ gently clinks their teacups together c: ]

Could you tell me if this looks familiar to you?

[ he'll pass them the dreaded Hangman paper. ]

[guestservices]

[ clink! they seem pleased by this behavior, and then peer over at the paper...

and then groan. ]

Ahh, this thing again. Emet-Selch came to ask me about it, too.

[ they reach up under their veil to adjust something or rub between their eyebrows. ] I'll tell you the same thing I told him, I've got no idea who did it, but we all got our asses chewed out for it cause of you guys.

[overruns]

[ oops. there goes their one (1) guess. ]

Is that so? Why?

[guestservices]

[ you're doing your best, gang ]

Ugh...

[ they reach up under their veil, to adjust something, or rub their face. ] Because, it had to be during Orientation, and we "weren't paying enough vital and clear attention to the very important lecture of which way the toilet paper roll simply must go to ensure the highest of quality bathrooms". Or something.

[overruns]

Ah. My apologies.

[ he's not that sorry. ]

You all have quite a lot to oversee.

[guestservices]

You don't have to apologize if you're not actually sorry.

[ they laugh a little, though, not particularly offended. ] And, yeah, you'd be surprised how much work it takes to run a hotel. Or, maybe, Gems is just really, really, really, really thorough when they tell us what we're supposed to be doing as if they're in charge.

Did you ask the others about it? Would love to find out who the culprit was.

[overruns]

[ he smiles apologetically, still not very sorry. ]

I asked Virgo, and Emet-Selch has spoken to Gemini, at least. Neither of them claimed it.

[ he'll have to make rounds later when i have a working brain ]

There weren't any others at your orientation, were there? Besides you eight.

[guestservices]

[ gently rubs nu's brain you're doing so well ]

Nope, just the eight of us. Wish I had a better answer for you. Honestly, I think I was probably asleep for half of the meeting.
