[ A good deal of you may not recognize this man: dark brown hair, blue eyes behind glasses staring soberly forward, and if you look for it, there are signs that the suit he's wearing hasn't been properly laundered for some time. He blinks before clearing his throat, then nods--at you, perhaps? ]

While we are on the subject of bringing order and usefulness here--

[ He pushes up those glasses. ]

As of today, I and my colleagues have started a freelance agency. To put it shortly, if you should need any service done--scientific research or development, bodyguard services, counseling, or cleaning, for example--any one of us will be able to assist you. For a negotiated fee, of course.

[ For the sake of a friendly appearance, he attempts a smile, though it seems a natural one. ]

I can guarantee that any task will be performed upon request for the right price.

[ The smile doesn't even fade as he again clears his throat. ]

Should anyone require our services, please contact me. My name is Seiichirou Tatsumi--Unit 141 in the East Wing, and you may contact me in any way you see fit. You may also contact Asato Tsuzuki, Yutaka Watari, or Hisoka Kurosaki--these three gentlemen and I will be happy to serve any way that we can.

I would not believe any of you to be thieves in the worst case. That is no concern of mine. It is more fitting, and comforting.

[ Especially for handling her 'under things' which are really just shifts/nightgowns, but also she could sit and do needlework with a lady. Sigh. ]

Mayhap it would do your business good to hire a girl or woman.

I see. Yes, that makes sense, if it is for your comfort, Mistress Boleyn. Perhaps, if I should find a suitable hire, you would consider, then?

I would. I think it would be quite useful, and would treat her well.

You do not have anyone specifically in mind, I presume?

I would have the room cleaned and kept right, my linens and clothing washed and dried with gentle hands, and one who would help me with my dress and hair.

[ By which she means getting dressed and undressed. It is a lot of work and her poor Exile boy has been having to help since coming to the moon. And it makes her hair styles so simple she could cry.

She can think of other odds and ends too--washing her feet, assisting in needlework, and occasionally looking after Bobby, but that talk can come for later if this actually becomes a thing. ]

Then, if you would prefer, I will look for an appropriate person. It may take some time, but I will do what I can.

In such hard times, I would not be selfish enough to insist on speed. I will be grateful should you be successful in your venture.

I will try my best not to let you down, Mistress Boleyn.
