“You said…”  Mélanie washed the eggs slowly.  “You said that I had two assignments?  I suppose that I should do those before morning is over…?”

“Oh!  Thank you for reminding me.  Yes. When you’re done with those eggs, we can go upstairs and I can show you where to find the best clothes.  And then perhaps I’ll go out and do a little trading and give you some more time to yourself. Would you like that?”

“I.... I think I would be a little confused by that.  But I would not dislike it, sir.” She finished the eggs and set them on a tea towel that appeared next to the sink.  “Thank you, House. so… five outfits?”

Are you sure this isn't Beauty and the Beast? ;)

I love her telling him to dress the house nicely!

I think the house may end up more taken with her than with him. If they end up parting ways, this could complicate things.

Ooh, it may indeed.

Jasper suddenly finds himself locked out of all but one room of the house.
“All right, all right. I’ll sleep in the stable tonight and tomorrow I’ll go apologize to her!”

I wonder: does Jasper have any outfits to match the lady-in-waiting outfits that he's "found"? They could make quite the couple if so. But the work clothes seem far more practical for day-to-day wear. I'm surprised he doesn't have anything reasonably in-between, though I suspect that sort of thing might be easier to sell than the super-fancy or super-plain stuff on either end.

Probably at least two or three outfits, yes. Maybe he’ll come up with the idea to take her someplace fancy some time.
