Congratulations, Kabaji.

[ooc: why no, he has nothing else to say today :|]

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.

Svalbard at this time of year does not see a sunrise. Some would consider this depressing, others romantic. Perhaps it merely reflects the monotony of life others must endure.

Tezuka, I wish to visit the glacier. I will take a flashlight.

[ooc: yeah... no sunrise... probably should have looked that one up before sending them there. Uh, sorry Tez XD]

As I am sure you all are aware, tomorrow is Kabaji's birthday. I have booked Tokyo Disney Sea. All of it. Inform me if you are attending and I will ensure your name is on the guest list.

Tachibana-san, I expect you to be in attendance. Do not disappoint us.

Fuji, thank you for your company over Christmas. It was a delightful surprise --as always-- to have survived it.

( OOC: Gifts )

Kite, I have no objection to your methods or your objectives, but was it necessary to use my kitchen table?

Dear Seiichi, I simply must insist you join us for dinner. We will be enjoying turkey stuffed with duck stuffed with quail in a red wine sauce. It is succulent enough to make biting through to the interior animal a delightful experience.

If you cannot abide trying the meat yourself, there will also be pumpkin stuffed with artichoke hearts with cranberries in the very centre. A colourful experience to cut into, although you should use a napkin, least the red sauce spill over your hands.

Kabaji, I wish to host a yuletide celebration next month. I am inclined to suggest you do not work during the event and we hire outside assistance for the kitchens, but if you would prefer to organise the preparations yourself, then I will not stand in your way.

Tezuka, is it your intention to join me at such an event, or will you hide behind a curtain with a book?

Dear Seiichi, I really do feel it is time we had a chat.

For some reason, I have returned to find my household somewhat indisposed. Am I to blame my own staff or Tezuka's ridiculous household?

My dear, since you have so evidently missed my presence, do accept this small gift for your entertainment. Hopefully, it will allow you to avoid tedious conversation with lower life forms.

(ooc: he got Amaya the worst collection of chick flicks Amazon recommended. "You've got mail", "Maid in Manhattan", "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants", "27 dresses", "Bride Wars" and any others that you think Kirihara might hate.)

Kabaji, I trust you will have a safe flight home. Do try and not overload Tachibana with so much food that she exceeds the weight limit on the return flight. Also please refrain from bringing back a goat or any animal that might chew the bed linen.

Additionally, I have upgraded your flights to first class. The cabin you selected was unsuitable.

Finally one of the felines is with me. It apparently adopted my plane seat as soon as I vacated the office chair. The creature is insufferable.

Do note, Tachibana's pointless butler, where I am headed. A pity that you chose to embrace the farm and not travel with me, na?

Since it seems no one is capable of doing this properly:

Tezuka, your mother has heard of your weight loss. She has purchased an entire new wardrobe for you in a size below what you currently wear. Judging from her previous displays of taste, I would estimate it is likely to consist entirely of clothing in shades of light violet. I suggest ensuring that you do not fit into it.
