Back home

[goldengreen]

It's good to be back in Japan despite everything. Living in another country is an amazing experience and it's not hard to stay in contact with friends and family, but when something goes wrong at home you're the wrong end of the world.

Tezuka, that you for letting us stay. Ohtori-kun and I will try and find a new location as soon as we are set up here.

Ohtori-kun, the medical school I've transferred to is a couple of hours from where we are now. I don't quite know yet how things will work, so I'll go in alone this week and we'll catch up in the evenings. Take this time to recover get familiar with the area.

Of course, Oishi-san. Please tell me which trains you'll be taking, so I can make sure to have dinner ready when you get back?

Screened:

Oishi-san...are you absolutely sure there's been no trouble with the transfer? I mean, I'm more than grateful to be working for you again, but you're certain it won't be any detriment to your studies?

[goldengreen]

I'll give you a call as I'm leaving. The timing might be a little guessed at for the first day or two and I don't mind waiting when I get home, so don't worry too much about it.

Screened:

I have no idea. I just filed my transfer and left. It will be fine, Ohtori-kun. Don't worry about it at all.

That will work just as well. I can arrange for someone to pick you up, then, as well.

Screened:

..."Will be"?

Oishi-sama, you haven't checked have you? Where's the paperwork from your old school, I'll call them and make sure everything's going properly.

[goldengreen]

I can take the train, at least at first. Though... um ... you can tell my father you send a car.

Screened:

I just have to sort out the final details. It will all be fine when I go in.

[silverfromsteel]

We can at least have someone take you to the station, then. Really, it will be much simpler. And yes, of course.

Screened:

It will be with your desk things, won't it? I'll take care of this, Oishi-san, you go have some tea.

[goldengreen]

I'll walk. I'll enjoy it, I'm sure!

Screened:

I have them all, really. I'm hiding them.

[silverfromsteel]

Oishi-san.

Screened:

I rather doubt that unless you have greatly increased your organizational skills while I was away

[goldengreen]

.... hello?

Screened:

.... I have most of them.

[silverfromsteel]

We'll discuss it over tea.

Screened:

That's more like it Mm-hm. Well, I found some others, and I'll bring them by once I've called and made sure everything's in order.

[goldengreen]

I'm in trouble all ready. We should discuss you wearing a collar and not telling me over tea too. Revenge attack.

Screened:

Uh, OK. Just ... don't rush. I'm ... sure it's all fine.

[silverfromsteel]

...Yes, Oishi-sama.

Screened:

I just want to be certain.

[seriousaura]

It is no trouble. Make yourselves at home and populate it as you see fit.

I won't be flying out there for a few more weeks.

[goldengreen]

Thank you! I'll only be populating it with Ohtori-kun. Um. Do you have two butlers currently? The other staff said there were two rooms already taken for them.

[seriousaura]

Yes, Yanagi and Arthur, but there will only be one traveling with me for the time being. Arthur is on sabbatical. I will instruct him to go to Tokyo when he's finished.

[goldengreen]

Arthur? Is he from the UK?

[seriousaura]

No, I do not believe so. He looks quite Japanese to me.

[goldengreen]

You .... don't believe so? Don't you know where he's from?

[seriousaura]

My mother hired him while Yanagi was in Canada doing a business program.

[goldengreen]

Ah, right. Did you not ask him about his background?

[seriousaura]

I wasn't really concerned. There were more pressing issues. Like the enchiladas.

(ooc: strike deleted)

[goldengreen]

Not concerned? Tezuka, you might have hired a petty thief or ... or ... a serial killer!

[seriousaura]

My mother hired Yanagi as well.

[goldengreen]

EXACTLY. That does not mean that you should not talk to Arthur yourself.

[seriousaura]

I have. There are no issues with him.

[goldengreen]

You don't think it would be wise to know more about his background?

[seriousaura]

I'm sure my mother vetted him out accordingly.

[goldengreen]

But it's your dinner he's serving! ... Ahh. Okay.

[imbluedabade]

I suppose we will meet upon my return. Welcome, Oishi-sama, you can call my Arthur.

[goldengreen]

Hi ... Arthur. Where did you come from? It's good to meet you. Who are you really? Do you have family in the UK? Your name is very British.

[imbluedabade]

Tezuka named me Arthur, though my family is Japanese. I assume you are Japanese as well, given your name?

[goldengreen]

.... Yes. My parents named me.

[imbluedabade]

How sweet. I'm sure they're wonderful people, to pick out such a nice name.

[goldengreen]

You ... don't like the one your parents chose for you?

[imbluedabade]

I'm having a bit of a spat with them at the moment, so I prefer not to use it. Arthur is a nice name.

[goldengreen]

I'm sorry to hear that, Arthur-san. Is there anything I can do to help?

(ooc: now he feels bad XD)

[imbluedabade]

Don't worry about it, Oishi-sama. Things will resolve themselves. In the meantime, you need not refer to me so formally. Arthur is fine.
