Back on schedule! I've added Miss Ruth's profile to HRD's Constellations.
Location: Outside of Manifesto Preparatory Academy

Jana: Hi! You must be Ruth.
Ruth: Oh, sweet Jesus, you MUST be kidding me. YOU’RE my new au pair?
Jana: Yep! And your tutor, too!
![Photobucket]()
Jana: I’m Jana. Nice to meet you!
Ruth: This can’t be right. My new au pair is from Oxford. She has two Master’s degrees. She’s traveled all over Europe!
Jana: Yeah, that’s still me.
Ruth: Christ, you’re just like all the others.
Jana: What is that supposed to mean?
![Photobucket]()
Ruth: You are such a joke. I have no interest in getting to know you because I already know your type. You're exactly au pairs 3, 4, and 5. You obviously lied on your application, and you’re only here to meet rich single dads and/or hot male au pairs that you can marry so you’ll never have to work again.
Jana: I am not!
Ruth: Sorry. Hot female au pairs, then?
![Photobucket]()
Jana: You listen here, Ruth. I have no interest in meeting anyone at this job other than you. Your mother hired me to educate and look after you, and that’s what I intend to do, whether you like it or not.
Ruth: *stunned*
![Photobucket]()
Ruth: *shrugs* Well, if you insist. I won’t make it easy for you. Vous êtes un imbécile.
Jana: Et tu es incorrigible!
Jana: *To herself* What have I gotten myself into?
Location: Kaya and Delaney’s Apartment
![Photobucket]()
Kaya: Good, you’re home. I want to talk to you about something.
Delaney: What’s up?
![Photobucket]()
Kaya: So I got a staff writer’s job today.
Delaney: That’s wonderful! You’ve been looking for so long!
Kaya: Yeah, I guess.
![Photobucket]()
Delaney: What does THAT mean?
Kaya: It’s just…I don’t know how. I didn’t slip my resume into Alyssa’s mailbox. I don’t know how it got in there.
Delaney: Well, you applied there before, right?
Kaya: Yeah…
![Photobucket]()
Delaney: Well, maybe when they were moving the record retention room last week, you resume got lost. Maybe someone found it and put it in Alyssa’s box.
Kaya: I guess that’s possible.
Delaney: Just be happy about it, Kaya! You’ve finally jot the job you always wanted! Don’t fuss over the details.
Kaya: You’re right, I guess.
![Photobucket]()
Kaya: *cheered* Thanks, Delaney. Hey, Saki! Do you want some fish?
Delaney: You’re welcome. *To herself* Just be happy, Kaya.
Location: Najae
![Photobucket]()
Eva: *Sigh* So Bear, what’s new with you? Oh, you’re okay being a dog? Great.
![Photobucket]()
Eva: Stretchy, stretchy. God, I’m bored.
![Photobucket]()
Eva: Dresses, Natalie? You never seemed like the type. Then again, you were good at everything…
![Photobucket]()
*Eva tries to get up, but hears a thunk*
Eva: What was that?
![Photobucket]()
Eva: This box sounds hollow.
![Photobucket]()
Eva: I’m sure Nat won’t mind if I snooped. Aw, man, all this is just some old fabric. Wait, there’s something here in the corner…
![Photobucket]()
Eva: Oh. My. God.
![Photobucket]()
Eva: Oh. My. God. Natalie?!?! In a photograph?! With a MAN?!?!
![Instant Chemistry.]()
Eva: What is this?
To Be Continued...
So the mystery begins! Who is this mystery man? How did Kaya get that job? And...well, I don't really have a question about Ruth and Jana at the moment, but they are proving to be a VERY fun pair to play around with (I just finished Chapter 10).
And please, pardon my French. I have a VERY limited vocabulary and only a small grasp on grammar (I've only taken it for 3 years, with a 2-year gap between years 2 and 3), but I wanted to Jana to show off her language skillz, and French is all I've got. So be prepared for more awful French to come!
The names of most places in this photostory are actually inside jokes of mine. "Manifesto" is from my favorite episode of Boy Meets World, The War, where Eric comes back as Playswith Squirrels and says of the big book he has with him: "It's me manifesto." The name of the museum where Kaya and Sawyer work comes from a 6th grade project of mine involving a blonde wig, the history of photography, and noodles. But more on that next chapter.
