... would ever go on a Questioning and now, almost without warning, she was going on this one. She felt wobbly, unready; she was going into the unknown, after all. She'd heard stories about past Questionings, and had found many of them unbelievable. And she was making the journey with a woman she already knew she couldn't really defy, and feared that she'd only found another heel to be ground under....
...They were all looking at her. She had stood in this place many times before. She had been leading Questionings for nearly one hundred years now. Lately she had been aware that this time was going to be ...not so funny -- most of the elder sisters were in much the same case. They had been on Questionings before, but only as sorores, or famulae. There were in fact only three exceptions to this: Torii ...
...Yukiko’s mother took the responsibility for that, and left Yukiko to handle the day-to-day operations. No, Yukiko didn’t know when her father would be back, but until he did, then all dealings and questionings about the Amagi group would go through her. The afternoon hadn’t been much better. The media smelled the story and came down on the Amagi Inn in droves. She dealt with them, this time, as ...

... height provided a good enough disguise, but the face you look at in the mirror is probably the most familiar of all. Things were hard at first, dealing with all sorts of suspicious looks, and many questionings of, “Are you and Officer Yagami related?” Things got better once he had found a missing child, the incident having cemented his place as ‘one of the guys’. Oh, the looks on their faces if...
... Ashelia. "I merely wonder why they send so many home... yet Her Majesty is still here." he gives Balthier an apologetic smile, "I of course do not expect you to know the answer. Tis foolish questionings and nothing I can change currently." Basch is quiet again, feeling foolish for bringing it up in the first place. He keeps walking, even as his thoughts linger on the subject he'd brought up....
... lest byany chance of household concern, any of the servants should see me; forif this should happen, Aunt Janet would be sure to hear of it, whichwould give rise to endless surmises and questionings--a thing I was farfrom desiring.
