*Noel is sitting down in a hall, looking wholeheartedly frazzled and tired.*

No money for food... Mistress is out of food money... I must remain at her side, but that won't help...

But I need food...

What do I do?! This isn't...

[Edit, new comments from here in will be post-edit.]Mariya-san provided me enough for a while for myself and Lady

Comments

[eminent_lady]

I'm sorry to bother, but are you alright?

[handsonthepanda]

Oh, hello there - oh, you're not Shizu... Sorry.

[eminent_lady]

You know--Ah! Of course, you must be her roommate?

[handsonthepanda]

Y-Yes. You know her, then?

[snakeeatstail]

Lieutenant Vermillion?

...first, let's find you something to eat.

Second, who are you talking about?

[handsonthepanda]

T-Thanks, Hazama-san...

Lady Rozalin, naturally. I'm too scared to act against her will now...

[snakeeatstail]

Yes. She seems quite the...formidable woman.

[handsonthepanda]

C-Correct. As a way for repaying her for an accident, I am serving her at this time, since there seems to be little that can be done about the larger situation.

[rose_liberated]

P-Pull yourself together girl! A slight momentary difficulty of this kind is easily surmounted.

Nevermind that 13 hours grinding monsters has given me a grand total of three hundred hell, and that's mostly lunch money from academy students.

[handsonthepanda]

Y-Yes my lady! There has to be some reliable solution to the problem!

[rose_liberated]

Now, the problem is simple enough to solve. For whatever reason Baal has cut me off from my source of funds, and I must locate a new one. However, the upkeep of my estate and servants is considerable, so whatever it is that I will be doing, it must pay well and be socially suitable. Etna's suggestion that I work as a call-girl for instance is totally inappropriate.

[handsonthepanda]

Y-Yes my lady. Such ideas are naturally quite rediculous.

But... What might be acceptable, then?

[inferior_lady]

[Hey Noel, there's... an oddly familiar-looking boy walking towards you. He may look a little worried.]

Hey... are you okay, miss?

[handsonthepanda]

... I... I'm honestly not sure.

*Noel is obviously very worried, overall...*

[inferior_lady]

Oh dear... [He leans over a little, holding out a hand.] Would you like me to help you?

[handsonthepanda]

I'm... I'm not really sure there's that much that you can do. I must figure out how to best help my Lady provide for herself, after all...

[Negi is hurrying down the corridor, but manages to notice Noel sitting huddled...]

Ah...Vermillion-san, what are you doing sitting here?

[As he looks around for someone else, Something falls out of his cloak and rolls on the ground near her, It's a round looking candy, with a blue coating and a plastic/gold colored wrapping.]

[handsonthepanda]

Lady Rozalin is having financial difficulties... I'm worried. She hasn't been able to cover food for herself now, and I lack money to do the same.
