House-warming gifts

[awedprowess]

As director of the newly re-named Atobell Communications, I have ordered the production of two handsets with unique characteristics. Yukimura, I trust you will accept one of these two along with the customary gratification appropriate to your hospitality last weekend. This handset is brightly coloured, water and oil proof, can be located through a key-clapper device and has removable key pads should they become unusable from application of any adhesive substances. I believe this will be an acceptable house-warming gift for all occupants, na? One can only hope that the increased ease of locating your cell phone will lead to an improved guest list or at least salon care for unfortunate arrivals.

Syuusuke, the other device is for you.

Ohtori Choutarou, you butler skills have improved fractionally. I expect significantly more improvement when you next serve on me. Additionally, I expect you to have mastered this piece for an after-dinner recital.

(ooc: I've assumed that Kirihara would be lurking around Yukimura enough to be seen by Atobe at the party? Def. correct me if I'm wrong, and I'll adjust the post XD Fuji, your cell phone is small, contains a 10 mega pix camera (worryingly usual for Japanese phones) and can also take streaming video.)

Was that gift really that necessary?

Though I rather think this is far more appropriate for Ohtori to learn. You and your Wagner obsession.

(ooc: strikes barely visible)

[awedprowess]

You know he cannot hold onto his phone for longer than 30 seconds. Some people, I believe, wish to get a hold of him consistently.

He shall learn both and play to us after we dine. As a composer, Wagner cannot be surpassed.

[seriousaura]

Perhaps you are the only one who ever has a problem getting a hold of him.

Aa. I would say that honour belongs to either Bach, Beethoven, or Mozart. Not Wagner.

[silverfromsteel]

Do I get no say in this at all?

...Why am I asking.

I'll show both to my teacher and ask his opinion.

[seriousaura]

I merely suggested the Bach piece since it is traditionally for the cello and I am confident in your abilities that I believe you would perform it on the violin rather admirably.

You're not challenging yourself if you stick with that which you are familiar.

[silverfromsteel]

Thank you for the vote of confidence, Tezuka-sama, I do appreciate it - but I really should run them both by my teacher, first.

[awedprowess]

We are not requesting you perform them tomorrow. The trivialities of the situation are entirely your own.

(ooc: He was there, but I don't think he's bright enough to catch onto the dig. It took me a couple of reads to catch myself. Haha).

[awedprowess]

(ooc: hehehe XD)

[prettynotweak]

I do not think I have the words to thank you.

[awedprowess]

Then the gift has achieved everything I could have desired.

[prettynotweak]

I do have one question.

[awedprowess]

The 'on' button is on the left side.

[prettynotweak]

Witty.

As challenging as it was to find the 'on' button, that is not my question.

[awedprowess]

Likely.

Then it seems I must indulge you and inquire what it is.

[prettynotweak]

Considering all the lengths you went to, why not go a step further and permanently strap it to my body?

[awedprowess]

There is still New Year gifts, Seiichi.

[prettynotweak]

Ah lovely.

I always wanted you to be able to reach me at a moment's notice.

[awedprowess]

I would point out that you could change the number, except that would require a detailed discussion of the difference between hand sets and sim cards with no guarantees of comprehension.

[prettynotweak]

Genichirou will help me figure that out after the lobby is finished.

[awedprowess]

A suitable goal. The duration for the renovation should be time for him to ask for assistance.

[prettynotweak]

I am quite sure it takes considerably less than two months to change to an international phone number.

However, I suppose you are right in that one can never be too sure.

[non_shimobe]

Key Clap? Sounds like some kinda STD. If you wanna sell phones it's all about the extra gaming and media features. Everybody knows that.

[awedprowess]

If I wished to cater to the populations with single-digit IQs, I would indeed focus my attentions on the simple desire to shoot something while riding the subway.

[non_shimobe]

EVERYONE plays games on their keitai...geesh, and you're a business man?

[awedprowess]

Your definition of 'everyone' would comprise of individuals who I would not employ in my company.

[non_shimobe]

Are you crazy?! EVERYONE has a phone. EVEN Yukimura-sama has a phone and he apparently hates them.

[awedprowess]

I somehow cannot envisage him playing pocket arcade games on a handset he keeps loosing.

[goldengreen]

Kirihara.... It's, um... quite ... understandable ... to see sexual innuendos everywhere but you should be aware that not everyone sees a phone and thinks of intercourse. Have you thought about seeing a counsellor?

[non_shimobe]

WHADDAYA MEAN A COUNSLER?! Just cus I dumped you doesnt mean ya gotta make me seem like some weirdo!!

[goldengreen]

You ... you dumped me?

[non_shimobe]

DUH! I told you I didn't wanna go out. Sorry pal, not batting for that team.

[veiledagenda]

Hmm, while I appreciate your thoughtfulness, Keigo. I must admit the retrieval of your gift may prove problematic at the moment.


I am not in the country at the moment, you see.

[awedprowess]

.... Exactly where have you located to?

[veiledagenda]

Saa...
