4th Inversion [Vine/Video]

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

[The Vine shows Akiha in her sitting room today as she has her evening tea.]

I know this is a bit late for some, but I will be hosting a party for the New Year tomorrow night here at my mansion. All of you are invited provided you can keep any hostilities off my grounds.

My maids have been busy getting the mansion ready and there will be plenty to eat from roasted pheasant to hors d'oeuvres to sweets. I will also be providing a modest selection of alcohol including champagne for when the clock strikes midnight. [And being Akiha is sixteen, she doesn't care if anyone else underage has a drink.]

Festivities will begin at eight o'clock and there will be a proper celebration at midnight. [She then frowns.] Nothing like the Queen forces upon us. I hope to see you all.

[Not really, but Akiha is used to having a large party at the Tohno mansion on New Year's Eve with visiting members of the branch families who she dislikes as much if not more than the those here.]

Oh, Kris? Lambda-11? Please come see me as soon as you can.

Scout's honor. I can be very well behaved if I wanna be.

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

I won't accept a scout's honor, but I will a lieutenant's word.

[How often does Akiha ever make reference to Katina's rank?]

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Then my word as an officer that I won't cause any trouble.

[ Only when it's convenient for her right? ]

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

Then I will make sure there is ample pheasant. Just to make sure there still is some left when you do come by.

[Or she wants to impress some semblance of respect. She does respect the rank.]

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

As long as there's other stuff to fill up on, I can go easy on the pheasant.

[ Akiha better. It took a lot of hard work. ]

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

There will be plenty of food. Kohaku has gotten a little too much into the spirit of the holidays.

[Meaning it was one of the reasons Akiha decided to have the party after all.]

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

I can take the leftovers home with me too, if there's a lot.

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

[She's not sure if she wants to give that good of food to -Katina-. Maybe if she conducts herself properly...]

We'll see.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

A fancy lady like you doesn't bother with leftovers, right?

[ It's a good excuse to make off with food she could never make herself, too. ]

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

Rarely. Though even as leftovers, such quality is a gift best given to those deserving of it.

As I said, Lieutenant, we'll see.

[grandtheftmecha.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah, I'll lay off... seeya there.

[Akiha makes an acknowledging sound in the back of her throat before the mirror goes dark.]
