Today is a special day for one of my first maids to ever join the manor. And so, after all this time, she deserved not just an update in design, but also a little story of HOW she came to join the manor. I hope she enjoys!
It's not very often, as Poppy leaves the manor to take care of tasks for me on her own when she has so many to delegate work to, that she chooses to do something herself. Yes, my staff has grown, but she still holds the pride she was the first. Well, it was while she was out taking care of her tasks that she caught sight of a little pink and blue kitten who seemed down on her luck. Not that she was poor or homeless, mind, but she had a number of pink slips in her paws and looked very cross about having lost a number of times she was refused a place to work and sleep. Poppy being Poppy, couldn't ignore a chance to hire a brand new maid for the manor.
But she also took something else into account. I had Cherie to serve as my security and Lorelei as a infiltrator and assassin... But my manor was lacking a squad of maids who's entire role in my service was to contend with more strategic and dangerous jobs. I needed a team of maids who could be deployed and working together, act like a well oiled strike team to get things done... And still be cute as a button doing so. She had an idea to create such a team, and the little kitten would be the first. What was cuter than a team of sisters, after all?
So Poppy chatted with the kitten a while, offered her a home, a job, and all the free time to play and enjoy herself on breaks. Naturally, it lead to her taking Poppy's vitamins, a good long interview of staring into her eyes... When she woke up next, Bubblegum the Sylveon cheerfully got started on her tasks, and looked forward to when she'd see the rest of her sisters. She was the youngest of the Creamveelutions, Master Cyralon's elite team of maids who could handle any and every mission they were given; and not one cared they were a cute rainbow of ice cream flavors and types.
