Responsibilites

[awedprowess]

Kabaji, as you have noted you will be working alongside Kite from now on. The addition of a second butler was purely to keep up with Tezuka in part a move by my mother to secure a servant in the capacity of bodyguard. You cannot be everywhere, after all. The second reason was that I require your attentions to be partially elsewhere for the next few weeks. In particular, I desire you to train and care for this dog:

He has recently become homeless and, with the animal shelters under added pressure, it made perfect sense to take him. I trust he will prove to be an excellent guard dog and I leave him in your care.

PUPPY!

[awedprowess]

I did think you would be pleased. It is more of a young dog than a puppy, however.

[notseenorheard]

It okay. You name?

[awedprowess]

Genichirou. The naming is yours. I suggest something other than 'dog' or 'puppy' however. We would not wish for confusion when we take him out.

[notseenorheard]

Clifton Frederick Edwin-Readington. We call him Eddie. :D

[prettynotweak]

He will have to meet Saito soon :)

[awedprowess]

I rather doubt your dog is trained well enough to behave in such circumstances. I will not have my living room shredded.

[prettynotweak]

He was fine with Kabaji-kun and everyone else he meets.

[awedprowess]

Kabaji is not a dog. Do try not to imprint your own butler's demeanour on my own.

[prettynotweak]

Ah, forgive me. I simply thought you were talking about how the dog wishes to attack you, and I wanted to clarify that it is only you that is the problem :)

[awedprowess]

How mysterious. Such a pity that means he cannot be brought to my house.

[notseenorheard]

I bring Eddie to Paris. We have playdate. :D

[prettynotweak]

And when we move to Tokyo in May, we can take them on walks together all the time :)

[notseenorheard]

That be nice.

[prettynotweak]

It's a date :)

[notseenorheard]

I never been on date.

[awedprowess]

Seiichi...

[awedprowess]

Unfortunately, quarantine regulations completely prevent this, unless you plan to have the dog there for eight months. You will have to wait until Yukimura brings their pooch to Tokyo.

[notseenorheard]

:( That sad, Atobe-sama. I be patient. We take Eddie on walks together?

[awedprowess]

Out of the saucepan and into the fire. .... We can, Kabaji.

Looks a bit soft to be a guard dogit'd better not eat Julia

Please let me know if you need anything, Keigo-sama.

[inquisitive_kit]

I think you have managed to shock me speechless, Atobe.

[awedprowess]

That alone is worth the canine's bed and board costs.

[yagyuu]

It is very generous of you to take the dog in Atobe-san.

[awedprowess]

Quite so. It does please Kabaji.
