[At first, she's quiet for a little while. She opens her mouth as if she knew what to say before but now that the camera's rolling, she's second-guessing it. And so there's a pause before she starts talking.]

Matthew's gone.

[... and she looks a little confused, as if she never expected to say those words. They sound so foreign.]

... sheesh. Can he ever leave without causing me problems?

Well, now you know.

[A bit of a shrug and she ends the feed.]

[small laugh] I take it you've gotten a lot of those, hm?

But it must be strange not having him around.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

You have no idea.

[And that answer should answer both question and assumption.]

I just kind of realized how boring this place could be. Main reason why I kept him around was to ward that off, really.

[ninjaservant.livejournal.com]

Then you really must have been bored if that's the case. [light chuckle] But I'm sure you'll find something else to ease that boredom.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Something else, huh?

[A bit of a sigh and a shrug.]

Yeah, I'm sure I will. Too bad we don't all have a prince friend to serve and prank when we get bored, huh?

[ninjaservant.livejournal.com]

I'd be more than happy to share.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

I actually thought of that already but Zen didn't seem to take too kindly to the idea of being double-teamed.

Go figure.

[ninjaservant.livejournal.com]

He would object to it. [laughs] But I'm sure he wouldn't mind it if it were for a good cause.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

So would you say relieving boredom could be weighted as a good enough cause?

[ninjaservant.livejournal.com]

[a smirk] I would definitely say so, yes.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Well then, what do you propose we should do about it, Obi?

[ninjaservant.livejournal.com]

Find Master and relieve your boredom, of course!

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Outright pestering of the prince? Isn't it possible to get in trouble for that?

[ninjaservant.livejournal.com]

Who said we had to make it obvious?
