The trees here are unusual. Usually it takes a lot longer for a sapling grow this much. ...Well, whatever.

[A pause, followed by the light clink of glasses in the background.]

Ah, that's right. Just a fair warning. Just because Shinjiro is out doesn't mean there's going to be sudden change in policy. I'm not doing anyone any special favors, so expect for pay for your drinks in full.

That means you, Ichinomiya Kantarou.

I'll be here throughout the week, so don't wait up for me. There is someone that I would like to introduce to you though.

It's strange that I'm actually getting used to this.

No body guard duties or odd jobs, no fighting youkai and yuurei and not having to face that bastard Minamoto at almost every sign of the worst trouble. It gets dull sometimes, but... there's still something.

Hmph. What am I even talking about...?

Then I'm in your hands, Tess.

This should be interesting.

Well, which language would you like to learn?

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

There was a priest in my own world who spoke to me in English once, but I don't think I would have ended up caring enough to know what he was saying... He was scum.

But here that language is more common, isn't it?

It's a big difference to me. ...I think I would like to try to learn more of it.

[7th-warrant.livejournal.com]

Very well, that is where we will begin.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

...I'm grateful.

[7th-warrant.livejournal.com]

I should warn you that, amongst the languages I know, English is the most difficult to learn.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

That's fine. I have plenty of time to try to learn it in. At least I have already.

[7th-warrant.livejournal.com]

Then let us waste no time. We shall begin as soon as possible.
