By a particularly upset looking tree in an otherwise normal glade, the goth group sat around wondering what to do that wasn't school but also not too stupid. Athena wasn't there, for whatever reason, so it was mostly just Zoe and Stephanie Wright going at it over who had the least cool mother, with Zelda Whitefield on her phone.
Athena was on her way, dressed in her favorite kimono from the belongings of Kaneko Meshida. Athena's contentment left her as she saw the others. "And who told you all you could take a break, this morning? Our hot spring is catering to big clients tonight, you ingrates!"
Confused, Zoe looked to the rest of the goth clique and glade, now something like a group of humbly dressed caretakers outside an onsen. Zoe tried to remember what she thought she was doing, but all she could recall was being servants to the Black estate and recently to Athena, who managed to seem pretty imposing now that she was channeling her spiritual energy at her workers.
