The sudden change in the piece was jarring. The instruments are unfamiliar and one is not sure he appreciates being forced to listen.

And there is sand in one's boots.

And there are female undergarments strewn about one's kitchen.

May one inquire as to why the bathroom is full of sand and why this requires Miss Matako to use the kitchen as the laundry?

One is making yakisoba. What if they smell of yakisoba.

You won't be blaming this man, hopefully.

[oneeyedbeast]

Troubled, as well?

[writinurlyrics]

The weather was very hot and dry; now it is very cold. It's horrible weather for the preservation of high-quality wooden instruments.

[oneeyedbeast]

Hm. And somehow I feel no pity at all. I wonder why?

Could it be your recent failure?

[writinurlyrics]

Shinsuke...

There is little more this man can do but offer quittance for your satisfaction. You may ask what you will.

[therippling]

Huh.

[writinurlyrics]

The curse does not agree with this man's constitution, Miss Ophelia. Are you well?

[therippling]

Just fine.

Is it you?

[writinurlyrics]

Is this man what?

[excellent_moth]

Matako's.

I think I'll find other eating arrangements until they're gone.

[writinurlyrics]

The soap must be unbearable to a man such as yourself.

[excellent_moth]

It isn't a smell I want mingling with the scent of my food as it were.
