Phoenix Maplewood not from others

"A pleasure," Desdemona gave a tip of a head instead of a complete bow. She couldn't bare to simply not do something formal- which seemed to be weird to Alya. Though she could say the same, that she found it odd someone was questioning her actions, "I'm sorry," she hesitated on using ma'am, as it seemed the wolf before he did not enjoy it. That was fine though, there was plenty of different titles, "miss. I hope that is okay."

"My apologies, it was how I was brought up." It was a mixture of mocking and brutality that forced her into a more polite and serious nature. First and foremost they made absolutely sure she would call everyone by not their names, but with 'my liege' toward leaders, and various of miss, ma'am, madam, and sir.' Then there was the fact if she did not speak with the upmost respect! They'd beat her up. Quite simple- but then it escalated to the silliest of reasons. She expressed joy for something? When another can't have the same? Crying? They'll show her what she really needs to cry for. If she said something wrong, they'd laugh at her, because it was due to her dirty-blood that she talked so filthy.

It was best to comply.
