That is why times like this are when you must ask yourself for whom is the present for! Sometimes what you want to give and what the other person wants to receive are two very different things. Picking a White Day present is always difficult. You would do well to remember this exchange for when you yourself are married. That said, I can't afford to cut any corners! Not even for a single year.Īs a husband and as a gentleman, I shall show my worth! Tis difficult indeed to find something new to give my wife, especially after all these years of marriage. I must acquire a White Day gift for my wife, and I am as yet undecided! I demand your sincere recommendation! Just for today I've retired my armor to consult you on a matter of utmost importance! Here you are.Īha! I've finally caught you! Excellent timing, I do say! And a gentleman always returns the favor. The texture, the sweet and bitter harmony-it's simply divine! When it comes to meeting my culinary standards, even the finest chocolatier could not compare! Then, feast your eyes upon this! These exquisite chocolates my wife has crafted for me!

Now-and I do not believe this is likely-but you are not hoping to compete with my wife, are you? As an imperial soldier with impeccable decorum, I must thank you. Oh, I see you've brought me another little something. I have received many such a gift from her, but each time I am always happy. My wife has given me homemade chocolates this year too!

There is no greater pleasure in my life than this, I do say. One can truly taste the love with which my wife made these. Nothing quite as satisfying as a good glass of wine with a box of chocolates from one's wife. Though I think that would be a very tall order indeed, I do say! We'll see if you can make as good a wife as mine. I do say that married life rather suits me. I've gotten chocolates from my wife this year as well! I will rout that rabble in a manner of seconds-on my honor as an imperial soldier! Men! Forward march! What! Do you mean to say that winegar-that rare and legendary brew-is back in stock! And you are inviting me to the tasting? Oh, confound it! They ride vehicles called gearcycles or some other such poppycock. The culprits are a gang known as the Gear Sentinels. However, I suppose I must wish you a happy New Year nonetheless.īut I am on patrol! These past few New Years, a group of scoundrels has taken it in their heads to play a game of chicken and ride roughshod over the capital. You have a way of appearing at the most inconvenient times. I understand that New Year's greetings are formal matters that require a certain delicacy.īut, the New Year must be celebrated properly.įor me, that means it must include delicious spirits! I am not intoxicated every single year, you know! Hrm? Why are you looking at me like that? I do say, there's nothing quite like having a fine glass of wine while watching the first sunrise.Īfter that, some hot tea and biscuits to warm you up from the cold! Go on and get your own food, stop mooching off of me! Ohh no, you can't fool me! You've been eyeing my New Year's feast ever since I put it on my plate! Now let that perseverance and pluck, which are thorns to your enemies, carry you off to the Island of the Astrals or wherever else the winds take you! I cannot possibly praise the enemy without throwing some stings in the honey. What am I trying to get at? Well, consider my position. Those grains are an annoyance! Have you tried to scrape them off before? They wedge themselves between your nail and flesh and hurt very, very much. You are quite the tenacious one, aren't you? Very like a grain of rice that has dried and encrusted itself to the bottom of my bowl. It seems your birthday has come round yet again. If you've evaded us this long, surely you have what it takes? Failure is not an option! Resilient little roach, aren't you, hmmm?Īfter causing this much trouble, you can't just quit without reaching your goal, can you? Here's hoping you stay safe long enough to catch me, I do say! Skyfarers and the missions they take on are oft accompanied by danger. We've known each other for quite some time now, haven't we? Though I would prefer if we'd never met. I'll keep hunting you till your very last birthday! Well, enjoy your moment! It's the only day of rest you're going to get! Looks like you've managed to evade our grasp once again this year. I'll make this a birthday you'll never forget!
