[As calmly as you please.]

People send them. You don't ask for them.

Hrrm. You skin-trees gonna charge me for this thing?

It's already been paid.

...Hurry up, then. I got an appointment with the polishing salon.

[Trowa clears his throat once, and only once. Given his hesitation to begin after that, it's probably obvious that he isn't at all used to doing this.

[There's a silence, and then an angry, rumbling yell, followed by a metallic crunch and the feed ending. Also, if you would like a telegram from Trowa, action it up and I'll have him deliver one~]
