"Independence"
It would seem this "freedom" thing that this alien holiday is all about has gotten to a good number of the maids' heads--that or the sake poured in observation of said holiday. This morning, I ordered all of the maids to work extra hard to make Remilia-ojou-sama's day extra special, and took those who complained to the punishment room as usual. By the afternoon, one of the maids--whom, by the way, I had always suspected would turn traitor--had poured blue dye on herself and amassed quite a crowd of maids. She was yelling "They may take our wives, but they'll never take our free gum," or something like that; I wasn't really listening.

Anyway, to make a long story short, I had to subdue quite a few rebellious maids today. Now not only are we faced with another labor shortage, but there are more traitors to punish than the punishment room can accommodate. How vexing. Maybe if I feed a couple of them alive to Yuyuko, it'll set an example for the others?
