Thanks for the snowflake cookie, Jirou-sama. I'll have to pass on the pink frilly apron. To prove that I don't need it to improve my baking skills, we have strawberry shortcake for dessert.
Julia's looking much happier now that she's somewhere warmer. She's stopped pecking my glasses, at least. Thanks for letting her stay, Jirou-sama. I've got marshmallow squares in the oven.
Yeah, thanks for the birthday wishes and all. That was really nice.
But--
SNOW!
JULIA!
Jirou-sama, I need to talk to you!
[ooc: Julia is the pet parakeet Kite smuggled up the mountain and housed in the garden shed. It's getting a bit cold for her and he's freaking out. ;; Rin probably knows who Julia is, but the rest can be like ???? :) ]
