oo1 - Apologies.

[tashigi]

I'm very sorry I haven't been around much... I've been trying to catch up on some things. Such as my training and attempting to try and get through the paperwork and research done on the island we're on... I apologize to anyone who's been affected by my absence.

However, if need be, I'm still willing to train anyone who's interested in learning how to handle a sword, I hear there may be some meitous on this island, so if anyone would like to join me for a while looking for them, they are welcome.

... I believe that is all.

Not yet... Is there something I should be looking at, sir?

... I do.



...

I thought of getting it for her, because what little girl doesn't like tea parties and it... it's quite stunning.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

No.

I'll have to take your word on these kinds of things. Garp gave me a rather deep loathing of tea but if you think she'll enjoy it that's good.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

Sir, I'd say I was ashamed of you for that post... But, I was drinking myself while that whole thing was happening. So I cannot say anything.

Smoker-san, you can't deny it's still beautiful.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

... Ensign. Hn. I've been trying to get ahold of Karen and... I'm not going to deny that was a low point but I don't regret it. Please do not do so on my behalf. However I will try to be an officer you can be more proud of in the future.

If you say so. I guess I prefer white things.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

Sir, I understand that. And I'm not. We've discussed this already. And sir, you're always an officer I will be proud of. Sir, there isn't much you can do to change that.

Hm. I see.

... I've figured out what to get you.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

... Thank you Tashigi.

You don't have to get me anything.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

We've also gone through this before as well. Sir, you'll allow me to get you something, if I allow you to get me something. If not, we won't get anything for each other. It's the only way I'll allow you to get out of this.

But in the mean time, perhaps you can help me pick out something for Zenigata-san...? You two are a lot alike. So, you are my best bet in getting something he'd be able to use.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

I was just going to get him cigarettes but maybe a replacement hat? See if you can get a hold of Bogart.

Or ask him.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

Hm. Interesting.

... Hm. I may have an idea.

What about everyone else?

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

Jeez you're good at this.

I'm completely at a loss for Allen. And I need to get him two presents. Bookman er Lavi I mean, I'm getting a parrot. It's a long story. I'm not sure what to get Miranda either. Nataku I got a dog. Rinali, Hina, Robin, and Karen I also got presents for. Reborn is the trickiest in my experience.

And I got a book of fairy tales for Orpherus but I was hoping to bring Elphaba's when I go except originally I was going to ask Karen's help and now...

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

Hm.

Allen. Hm. ... Perhaps you can get him some sort of ornamental weapon? Perhaps a dagger or a replica-gun?

And Reborn? Fine wine, it's simple and easy. I suggest something old and definitely red. Or another ornamental weapon?

... Miranda, should be easy. Perhaps a Log pose, one of the ones that are nearly unbreakable, like the one you got me. But something a bit more unique?

... I'm not sure on anyone else.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

You think so?

I was thinking wine. He uses Leon for his weapon so I'm not sure about another one.

... Oh... that is a really good idea! Damn it you're good at this.

Well I guess I could pick up some apple oils for Elphaba but Karen makes them so originally I was going to ask her help for it. Whatever.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

I definitely think so.

Well, the point of an ornamental weapon, sir. Is to be shown, not used. It's mostly a show piece.

Sir, I've had four years of experience on buying one of the most hardest people in the world presents, I have to be good.

Hm. Perhaps you could pick up a glass oil burner to go along with a small set of burning oils?

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

Can I get your help picking both of those out? Since you know swords and daggers so well.

I'll take that as a compliment.

Ah they're not burning oils, they're bath oils. Elphaba is allergic to water.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

Yessir. I'll look around for some when I'm getting your presents. I'll make sure to give you some pictures instead of just describing them to you.

As it should be, sir. I'm very adept at shopping for other people, however, find that I'm unable to shop for myself.

... Hm, well then. I see. Hmmm. I'm at a loss then, sir. I apologize.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

Seeing as how I've angered Karen more I'll probably see you in town personally. I was going to pick up some soup anyways for... Er... I just feel like soup.

I'll keep that in mind and see what I can do to aid in your ventures.

It's alright, I'll figure something out.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

... Would you like to talk about it sir?

... Well. ...Erm, I have an idea for what to do at Allen-san's birthday, sir.

And perhaps, I may come across something that'd be suitable. What kind of material does she read?

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

Not particularly. I don't understand women.
No offense.

Oh?

Practically everything. I don't think I've ever seen her without a book.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

It's fine, I don't understand them much either, and that's pretty sad, considering I am one, I think.

Yes, I... may be getting my hands on fireworks, so perhaps we could ... Hm, have a light show?

... Hm, ... I may have a book in mind. But, sir. It's a bit rare, so I may end up seeing if it's online and it may arrive a bit after Christmas. I apologize.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

You're definitely a woman yes. But you don't always act like one. Again, no offense.

Sounds interesting. Know anyone who can light them safely or were you suggesting I should?

Ah... that's what I did for Robin. But the Neverland has a very full library, I'm not sure even Elphaba has had the time to read it all. I'll figure something out.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

There is none taken sir, I can see that very easily.

Sir, I was thinking I could do it, I am not going to go face first into them, and we both know that you'll be busy that day.

And hm. I see. Okay.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

Hm. Good girl.

....... Tashigi I swear to god if you set the ship on fire... There's only so much I can put out at one time!

Don't worry about it.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

I won't. I'll make Zenigata-san help, if need be? Would that make you feel more comfortable?

... I won't.

Re: Private

[justicereigns]

... Not really. It takes a lot to mitigate your damages and I'm not so sure he's up to that task.

Re: Private

[swordsofjustice.livejournal.com]

...
Sir...
I'm not that much trouble, am I?
