Sounds about right. [but they shake their head.] ...look, I don't think I could get you a new bottle, but...I could touch them up for you. If you want. If it'd make you feel better.
Guest relations, remember? It's not about being friends, it's about making sure guests are happy. And you, Miss Lup, are not striking me as someone very happy right now. [a beat.] Not that I blame you.
[so they will reach into their pocket and pull out nail polish in a matching color, cat ears flicking again.]
I've done it once or twice. I can probably figure it out.
Stop. It's not gonna be terrible. [they are being careful though because this is dark polish against nice gloves. but they work on opening it as she asks that.]
I don't know if I'd say it's obvious, but I told you. I specialize in bad vibes.
...sorry. [they do seem to actually feel a little bad about that.] It's just...better. I know it's a lot to ask you to trust me, but it is. We can still talk and I can tell you thinks if I can, but that's about it.
And that's fine, but I can't guarantee that we can ever give you what you really want. [. . .] But I feel like you might understand that a little better than some people.
[they finish painting the nails on this one hand.]
...I can count the number of times a change has been good for me, Lup. Maybe this one will be, or maybe it won't. Until then, I can only focus on my job and making sure we're doing what we can for the guests.

Sure. You keep offering me things and I'm going to start thinking we're friends, buddy. [stop you ASKED for the violin] You any good at it?

Is it that obvious? [that she's unhappy.]

[she watches them for a second.] Do you want me to hold it with the hand you're not doing?

Should I assume you don't paint your nails very often?
no subject
You'd assume right. Constantly wearing gloves kinda makes a manicure useless, don't you think? And I've never really done it to myself anyway.

Let's just say I have a long and varied resume. Jack of all trades and stuff.

I guess not. It's just hard to make conversation with people who can't or won't tell you anything about themselves.

I don't really believe any of you are here to screw us over, even if some of you are trying to convince me otherwise.
no subject
Some of you really push the limit with us, so we always have to remind you guys that we're just staff.
no subject
I'm not really intending on staying away from the limit unless it seems like it'll punish you guys. Just so you know.

[she's quiet for a moment, and then:] Things changed for me, though. I hope it changes for you.
