Butler stuff

[serving_u]

Yuushi-sama, any special requests for your first week back to school? I know it can be hard getting back into the school routine so I'm happy to give out bribes and rewards. I suggest popcicles... I bet it's going to be stupidly hot even on the mountain

...You did? Thank you.

I wasn't able to get out a whole lot then we were traveling, but I have little gifts for you and Yuushi-sama as well.

[serving_u]

Of course I did!

Sucks that you couldn't get out much. But there's probably not much to see in Wales anyway.

[silverfromsteel]

Of course. When should I come by?

Perhaps not, but the scenery was beautiful. And it was much cooler, I should have gone for more walks - it's so humid here.

[serving_u]

Anytime our young masters are in class work for me.

At least it wasn't ugly... hey, what exactly do Jirou-sama and Jin-sama do all day together? They're a bit of an odd pair.

It's so stupidly hot. I'm thinking of trying to start the naked butler trend. Do you think Sakaki will approve it?

ooc: >.> Jin and Jirou may still be in Wales... I believe Jirou is ignoring school for as long as he can. But maybe Jin sent Choutarou back early to prepare things? Or maybe they both finally got dragged back by now. LC is a bit timey whimey anyway so we can fudge timelines if needed anyways.

Alright.

I, um, actually didn't spend a whole lot of time around them - Jirou-sama's home was very well staffed and so I had a good bit of time to myself, even if I didn't leave the house very often. Jirou-sama tried to get Akutsu-sama to go riding, once.

Naked?! ...Somehow I rather doubt it. And to be honest, I don't know how much it would help...

[serving_u]

Cool, just drop me a line before you swing by so I can make sure I'm in.

Really? Must have been a nice vacation. And riding? I would have paid to see that.

Ugh I know... the heat just clings. I'm hoping that dip in cold water helps. I'm making up some fresh juice popcicles too.

[silverfromsteel]

Will do.

It was rather nice, and I learned a lot - the staff were really nice.

I know. All this time and I'm still not used to it - it doesn't get hot like this back home, not usually. And yes, let me know if your ... swim helps, perhaps I'll go down later.

Popsicles?

[serving_u]

That's good. Did they all have weird Welsh accents? Hey, did they go around speaking the language?

I thik it's hotter than normal. If it works, I'm gonna start taking more cold showers even if certain parts of me cringe at the thought.

Yeah. Why does everyone question this?

[silverfromsteel]

Most of them had accents yes, but if they spoke the language, they didn't do it around me. Except what was probably swearing when appropriate

I did hear someone say this summer is unusually warm. Perhaps if you roll some ice in a towel and lay that over the back of your neck? My father used to do that sometimes, when he was in this workroom.

I didn't know you could make homemade popsicles, do you need particular equipment?

[serving_u]

I think being around an army of Jirou sounding servants would drive me nuts. One is cute, a bunch is too much on my poor brain.

Really? Guess I could try that.

Just the popsicle tray. You fill it up with what you want to freeze and put the sticks in it and freeze. Easy, cheap and oh so yummy.

[silverfromsteel]

It took a bit of getting used to, but after a few days I was alright.

I hope it helps.

Hm. I may have to get one of those - I doubt Akutsu-sama will want any but I'll certainly use them.

[serving_u]

Guess that's good.

I'll let you know.

They're handy. And who cares if he wants one. Just spoil yourself with them.

[silverfromsteel]

I don't know that "spoiling" is the right word.

[serving_u]

It is for me. A perfect hot weather treat.

[silverfromsteel]

That I can agree with. Where do I get the molds?

[serving_u]

In town. I'll pick you up some next time I'm there.
