GOOD MORNING, SIREN'S PORT!

Ah, some of you may argue with me that it is not a good morning at all! And there certainly have been lots of bad things in the news lately, haven't there? BUT THAT IS NO REASON TO THINK THAT IT IS NOT A GOOD MORNING! We must all be enthusiastic, or risk depression! There is a reasonable amount of sunlight, I counted

[Just. Staring. There are no words.]

Your causes include writing a book?

[daddydaioh]

Goooood morning, Mitsuru, how are you today!

Ah, yes, that is a personal favorite cause of mine, because it is one of utmost importance! Well, really, it will be a multi-volume set by the time I have finished--this is but one book of many! And it will soon be available for the general public!

[mitsuru_hime]

I am well, thank you.

All of your causes are of a similar type?

[daddydaioh]

Splendid! Have you found any employment suitable for your tastes yet? I have been watching the newsfeed on your behalf, but nothing very interesting or fitting of a young woman of your talents has yet been noted!

If by "similar" you mean IMPORTANT, than yes! It is my solemn duty to assist others in anything and everything!

[daddydaioh]

Yes, of course! I said that I was adding you to my list of causes--and I have! I would show you the list, but it's a secret!

Ah, and do not inquire any further, Abel! This is a project that will only work if you are SURPRISED! And you will be surprised! I have so many things planned~

[daddydaioh]

A DOG?

I love dogs! What kind is it? What is its name? Where did you get it? Is it a girl or a boy? Does it like its belly rubbed? Ah, but all dogs love that, don't they!

[successoroftime]

You've finished it already? That was fast!

Baking is easy enough to do if you're careful with your measurements, though I'm not sure what you mean by 'Commoner's Cake.' [a pause, and his smile turns into a sly one.] For the sake of impressing someone, is it?

[video]

[daddydaioh]

Yes, the first book has been completed! You can do anything quickly if you put your mind to it, you know! And I am very efficient!

Is it easy? I have never tried to bake anything before, so I am excited! Ah, do you think that it is better to use one of those box mixes that they advertise on television? Commoner's Cake being cake that commoner's eat, of course! And, er-- [thinks for a second, then nods enthusiastically] Yes! My dearest daughter Haruhi would be very impressed if she saw that I was able to bake a cake! And it takes a great deal to impress her, you know! Such a willful child! [He sighs, but keeps smiling]

[video]

[successoroftime]

Well, the amount of enthusiasm you have is difficult to compare to!

I prefer making everything from scratch, myself - that way, you're really in control of the quality of the product, and it simply just tastes better. [he chuckles quietly when he hears the second part of that response, already sure that there's a long story about why that's what Tamaki called Haruhi and why him trying to impress her sounds like something else entirely.] How did she become your daughter?

[video]

[daddydaioh]

That's true! I suppose I do set the bar rather high, don't I? Well, it just gives everyone else something to live up to!

From "scratch"! I see! Ah, have you done a lot of baking in the past? Perhaps you could help me! I want to get this correct, and if you're an experienced baker, then who better to ask?

Oh, she's been my daughter for most of the school year now! Er, that's just what she is! She has a real father, you know, but I am like a father to her, which is perhaps just as good, if not better! Because someone has to protect her from all the traps and pitfalls while she's at school, you know! Demon twins waiting to assail her at every corner--ah, and she was kidnapped once! She needs her Daddy, which is why it's so hard to be here! Who knows what trouble she's run into without me by her side!

[mentis_reae]

[Paaaause. Then, very quickly:]

I'm working late tonight.

[video]

[daddydaioh]

Late? HOW late? Late, as in midnight? Late, as in, seven o'clock? Late, as in the sun will be coming up when you finally cross your threshold and fall into the sweet embrace of your bed? Come, come, Mr. Edgeworth, you must be more specific if you want me to come and visit you!

[voice]

[mentis_reae]

I'll simply not be able to receive visitors.

[video]

[daddydaioh]

Why not?

[thelittlestbub]

[She's sweaty, with hair clinging to her face, and chewing bubble gum, and on her lunch break]

Dude... maybe you should calm down before you give yourself an aneurysm. Oh, and hey, I'm getting people together for a barbecue. Either this coming Sunday, or a week from then.

Wanna come? You wouldn't have to bring anything, just come and eat.

[daddydaioh]

Hello, Miss Jubilee! Ah, I can see that you have already been quite productive today! This is a fine day for business, isn't it!

Ahaha, your sense of humor remains so very droll! I do not have time for aneurysms! I have far too many things to do! Ah, but--

[daddydaioh]

Really? You're inviting me? How, how splendid! A commoner's barbecue! I have never been invited to one, much less attended one!

Please, I would LOVE to come! It would be such an honor!
