Selection Roleplay discussion

The kitchens were a series of intertwining rooms connected in odd places. James guided Belle through several corridors, hallways,storage rooms, and offices before finally reaching the kitchen he was looking for. He entered first and was greeted with whoops and taunting.
"Jimmy boy you're looking tan, been outside lately?"
"Tell me James, what's your opinion on the new fertilizer? Smells a bit don't you think?"
"Just ran into Daisy, James, had an interesting story to tell about you."
"How do you feel about p-"
Shouting above the loudest hecklers James said, "Shut it boys...and Bertha. We've got a guest!" He pointed to Belle standing behind him.

Lullabelle had a very amused glint in her eyes, she also had a smirk on her face as she listened to all the teasing directed at James. She stepped up to stand beside him. "Lively place." She said almost to herself. She looked around at all the new faces, smiling when she noticed a door towards the back of the kitchen. Well there's one exit. She thought to herself.

"You've no idea," James said wryly.
A gentleman with olive skin and slicked back hair came up to Belle,"So sorry Lady Lullabelle. We would have held our tongues if we knew we were in the presence of such a lovely young lady. Instead of just this filthy scalawag."

James rolled his eyes,"Oh whatever. I'm going to go change. Get her some food will ya?" James walked through the back door Belle had been eyeing.

Or not. She thought chuckling to herself as she watched James walk through the door. She looked back at the man who was talking to her. "No harm done." She said giving him a sweet smile and tilting her head slightly. Lullabelle gazed around the kitchen once again fascinated with so much and yet so little at the same time.

"Is there anything in particular you'd like?"

"Hmm....." Lullabelle thought for a moment she placed her hand on her chin trying to decide. "Oh I know, do you have any apples?" She asked sweetly.

"Of course. Is that all you would like?" One of the other kitchen staff began cutting up different kinds of apples and placing them on plate with honey.

"Yep." Lullabelle responded eagerly, she hadn't had an apple in so long, and for some odd reason she was just craving them now. She smiled when she saw someone else place the apple slices on a plate with honey. "Thank you, so much." She said gratefully as the other staff member handed her the plate.

((I'm really sorry for the late posts >.<))

"You're welcome miss."

About ten minutes later James swung the back door open. His hair was slightly damp, and while he had clearly tried to comb it somewhat, it already was beginning to stick up at odd angles. He had changed his clothes as well; now he had gray trousers on, black boots and a blue button down shirt, which he had rolled up to his elbows again. His suspenders were now on properly as well. He walked up to Belle and looked at what she was eating,"You've got the whole kitchen at your disposal, and all you want is apples? You're a waste."

((And it's okay))

((oh my gosh, I really suck at responding. >.<
Just to let you know this is the last post I can do today, maybe.))

Lullabelle looked up at James and glared at him. "Honestly you're the only one who is complaining at all at what I wanted to eat. Besides it wasn't your decision to make." She stated this quite frankly. She took a bite out of an apple slice and smiled when she felt the honey run smoothly down her throat.

James snorted, not at all impressed. She must be a 2, he thought. Belle didn't seem to be very polite. But James supposed he should have expected that. Plenty of people working in the palace told him what life was like outside these walls." So so sorry Lady Lullabelle. Twas my horrible mistake. Forgive me for voicing an opinion you do not agree with. So silly of me." This was said in a solemn voice between bowing up and down. Several people gave James pointed stares to mind his place

James's response only made Lullabelle angrier, but she held her tongue for once. She let out a sigh and looked at him, pursing her lips. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, I guess I just talk without thinking most of the time. Still it's no excuse." She apologized in a soft voice. She meant every word she said, feeling guilty she looked anywhere, but at him.

He looked at her crossly, then sighed, never one to hold on to a grudge. Though he was cautious about her now,"Apology accepted." He picked up her empty plate and washed it off. "I should take you back to your room. Dinner is about to start."

Lullabelle slowly looked back over at James, she nodded slightly. Waiting for him to lead the way, seeing as she was hopelessly lost. "Thank you." She whispered softly, not daring to raise her voice any higher.

Tonight, Danny snuck downstairs for a midnight snack, but only to discover that the Kitchen was not empty. It was bustling with excitement, luckily she found the cheese and crackers in no time, And was soon hording them in the back.
