Unsatisfactory products

[awedprowess]

I am entirely dissatisfied with the quality of cat carriers on the market. The most highly reviewed one has the ridiculous name "sleepypod air". I will not have any member of my household confined to such a product. Its low target audience is emphasised by the fact it is unavailable in royal purple. Clearly, a custom made travel device will have to be acquired.

Tezuka, I feel you are up to something. I demand to know what it is.

Kabaji, we need to discuss your preparations for the upcoming examinations, na?

To the medic's butler: I expect you to play for me at dinner this week.

You are quite wrong.

Then I am reassured. I have complete confidence in Arthur to mop up all eligible and illegible individuals in the entire resort and leave them quite indisposed for several days.

How many books do you intend to take?

[seriousaura]

I am not.

I don't think that will happen. You're being quite rude towards my staff.

I haven't decided.

[awedprowess]

The long nights did have to be filled in.

Arthur would doubtless take it as a compliment.

Presumably more than 5? If so, I hardly need to worry about you noticing so much as a thong on the sands.

[seriousaura]

Aa.

Screened
Possibly, but that isn't the point.

I'm working on Austen, so perhaps only two total.

[awedprowess]

You should not work on a woman, Tezuka. They are hardly worth the effort.

[seriousaura]

I know a few men interested in her works. I am not sexist in my work, Atobe.

[awedprowess]

I dislike her lead characters. They are far too head strong.

[seriousaura]

Perhaps they hit too close to home.

[awedprowess]

I hardly consider you an Elizabeth Bennett, Tezuka. Or do you affiliate yourself more with Fanny Price? The comparison is not flattering.

[seriousaura]

I wasn't referring to myself whatsoever.

[awedprowess]

Yet, would you not be the 'close to home' most relevant to such chick lit, ahn?

[seriousaura]

Not all 'close to home' references refer to a person's significant other, Atobe.

[awedprowess]

The contents of that woman's... literature... is exclusively focussed on such.

[seriousaura]

I rather meant that maybe the main character reminded you of yourself.

[awedprowess]

Darcy? No. I would hardly marry a low life.

[seriousaura]

There are more characters than that.
