Thirty five

[notseenorheard]

Look how big Cotton now. She still tiny, but very cute. I ask Atobe-sama's mommy for picture of her and Atobe-sama. She find and send. It not in first set of pictures.

Atobe-sama, I glad you happy with Yukimura Seiichi-sama. I like Syuu more than him though because I not know Yukimura Seiichi-sama that well. But he like kittens and Parrot so it okay. ...And you date Tezuka-sama now too?! You very busy Atobe-sama! I make sure pack you snacks when you not come back room right away. ^___^

Then I won't feel overly burdened by this-- I don't wish to converse with you again. Good day, sir.

Are you well?

Are you still incapable of reading, my lord?

I am going to substitute that unnecessary snippet for something resembling politeness and thereby explain my inquiry into your health was due to you appearing more easily overset than usual.

Is all well with your family, job and work?

Yes, to all of the above.




Did you stop to consider that by saying something like that to Kabaji that he might believe you? Or is it your intent to ruin my friendship with him?

My dear, you did tell me that you plotted my demise daily. I can hardly be blamed for treating anything that has passed through your hands with a degree of caution.

That said, I do not think it likely that Kabaji would believe you wished me harm, even if you provided him with explicit evidence to the contrary.

Which is laughable given the differences in our size and stature. Any overture I made toward doing anything of that nature would likely end with me having the tables turned on me. When I say it people likely laugh it off as 'Kohaku's blowing off steam.'

When you say it as a lord then your words hold the ability to make questions arise.


I do not think so. Kabaji obviously thinks highly of you to have worked for you as long as he has and to remain as faithful and loyal as he does. One day he will, no doubt, begin to wonder if what you say is true.

It's the same concept as telling yourself something over and over again, until you finally believe it. Except, in this case, he would.

Perhaps I simply have a higher opinion of your intelligence level than most observers, Tachibana-kun.

Kabaji believes the world consists of nothing but good people. Add to that the fact I implied such a move by you would be a mistake, and I think you have nothing to fear. There are people whose company I would rather he did not acquaint, but in order to make my wishes understood I suspect I would have to have issue a direct order combined with a serious conversation in which threats about kitten maiming came up frequently. For you, however, I have made no such move.

Besides, killing you has little appeal. That would give you an easy way out when keeping you around to torture leaves you suffering and wishing for death.


If you continue to say such things just how long would it take for him to believe me completely incapable of gathering healthy snack items together without mixing in poisonous articles? And don't you dare threaten him with kitten maiming! You'll make him cry, you jerk.

Sweetling, from you that is almost a poem of deepest love.

It would do him no harm to get into the habit of checking food before serving it. He is to be the butler to the head of one of the largest global companies when the time comes, after all.

I said such suggestions would be what it would take for him to think ill of another. I did not plan to actually do them.

Would you refrain from calling me that?!


Find a different manner in which to achieve that goal. I happen to like Kabaji, even if I find his master nearly intolerable and value the friendship I have with him.


You still just can't admit you like the kittens. Why?
