Unwanted gifts?

Lately, I've gotten a few packages in the mail for my girls who have either had B-days or just fun stuff from friends. But Manami hasn't gotten anything in a while and she's been kind of down about it.

 

A friend did some digging around for me on a certain type item that I wanted for an upcoming photo shoot and when he found some, he said he'd ship a few to me and see how I liked them.

 

So I figured maybe Manami would enjoy opening something up that arrived in the mail.....

 

 

I find her watching TV in the living room.

Hey Manami, how are you?

 

"Shh! I'm watching TV!"

 

I have a package for you....

 

"A package? Is it from Mitsuki? Is it cookies?"

 

Sorry but it's neither. Why don't you come and open it up?

 

"Alright, lemme pause this."

"Oooo! It's a big box! I bet I got something extra awesome!"

 

Let me go get something to cut the tape open....

"Ummm.... what's that?"

 

It's buckets.

"Buckets. BUCKETS? What the hell am I going to do with buckets?"

 

Calm down dear. Take them out and see how they look before you get all frazzled.

See how many cool types we have there?

"I still don't get it. What in the world are we going to do with buckets?"

 

I have a photo story in mind where you and a few of your sisters will be using these. I think you'll love it.

 

"I doubt it. Buckets are useless to me. Unless they're full of cookies or donuts."

Now stop being so mean. Battrastard and Tana sent us these and I like them.

 

"Tana sent these?"

 

Yes. And she said she also included something especially for you in there.

 

"WHY didn't you say so? Tana is cool! She wouldn't stick me with stupid buckets!"

"I bet Tana sent something so cool.... just gotta find it...."

 

DIGDIGDIG

 

DSC_5814 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

"SUCCESS! I knew Tana wouldn't let me down!"

 

Just what IS that?

 

DSC_5815 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

"Duh. It's BEER!"

 

DSC_5816 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

"And I found more! Whoo hoo!"

 

DSC_5817 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

Wow, Tana sure hooked you up didn't she?

 

"I'll say! She did me right. I'll have fun drinking these!"

 

DSC_5818 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

"But I still don't get the buckets.... why send those if there's no connection to the.... OHHHH!!!"

"NOW I see what the buckets are for! We have to ice down the beer so it's nice and frosty before we drink it!"

 

DSC_5822 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

"See how well the beers and ice fit in this bucket? Tana's so smart!"

 

DSC_5823 by balldylox, on Flickr

 

Yes, yes. Tana is an awesome girl and she certainly took care of you didn't she.

 

"Oh yeah! I'll have to hook her up soon.... maybe I'll mail her an autographed picture of me. She'll prolly like that."

 

You're sooo considerate Manami.

Seriously tho, Battrastard hit it out of the park on these buckets. I'm all set for my photostory now. All I need is some time to do it and I'll be good to go. Thank you sir! And thank Tana for the beers!

I have no clue what the buckets are really for, but I'm guessing that's not it. XD Very nice of you to let her think she was right, especially since I have a suspicion that that many buckets has to be for something that looks suspiciously like work. . . .

 

Still, those are really nice buckets. Agatha points out it looks like they may be good for keeping extra heads chilled prior to operation as well as beer.

The only reason so many buckets were sent is because I wanted a specific look and Batt wasn't sure what that look was. So he sent along a few of whatever he could find so I had lots of choices.

 

I'll only need 2 or 3 of these for the photo shoot tho. I'm sure you'll enjoy the outcome. Some may say it's work but *I* sure won't see it that way.

 

Agatha's idea seems workable but not here. No random heads around to chill.

Oh good. You've finally realized that as long as you have so many maids you might as well have them wash the floors. Like I've said from the very beginning, DDs are closer to the floor than us so it makes sense for them to clean them.

 

Starting wars and assigning chores. You're really changing a lot lately.

Aoi asked me to tell Manami that "Clearly the buckets are for trapping Drunk Skeletor, so he can't drink all the beer."

Heh the first place my mind went to with beer and buckets was a frat party where the pledges are in charge of giving buckets to those who drank too much

Cool gifts!! I've never have been able to find DD sized beers. Those are pretty cool. Not to mention those buckets look cool as well.

Billy if you have your girls start washing floors there is sure to be a rebellion from some -cough- Manami -cough!- And if you aren't careful Sprout might toss one of them right at you~

 

But this photo story is great! I love the DD-sized beers & buckets to chill them with~ Of course I'm curious to see just what all those buckets are really for

Awesome! Tana is very happy to see that Manami liked her gifts. Although, she does caution her to enjoy in moderation, they're very potent!! (either that, or Tana's a lightweight when it comes to drinking!)

*SMACK!!* "Quiet! you're typing too loud!"

Glad to see the buckets are gonna work, and can't wait to see whats coming up! *chuckle*

Heh, while your idea of them cleaning floors is quite funny, there's no way my girls would do that. I kepp the place quite clean all on my own so there's no reason for them to do chores like that. All the chores they have to do is clean up after themselves and keep the guest room clean from clothing and such.

 

And I'm not advocating any wars at your place! All I wanted to see was Rin in a kitty outfit!

LOL! If Manami knew who Drunk Skeltor was, she may agree with Aoi.

Ha ha! That's a funny idea but it's not what I have in mind. In about 2 weeks I'll have a few days off and time to do the post I want to. You'll see their main use then.

Thanks! DD sized beers aren't too hard to find. I've gotten some locally at craft stores like A.C. Moores and Michaels. They had them back in the doll house accessory areas. I want to say the glass bottles ran about 5 bucks each. I could never find buckets like this anywhere near me tho, that's why I had Battrastard find some. And he sent an excellent selection! I found just what I wanted.

Trust me, I already know if I dared make my girls do something like that, I'd catch hell. So no worries there, I have much cooler plans for them. You'll see in about 2 weeks or so. I'm glad you enjoyed this story tho, it was fun having Manami go thru the box and contents.

Oh yes! You and Tana did great! I got just what I was looking for and Manami was very happy to get beer. Manami can drink me under the table so tell Tana not to worry, Manami's an old pro. LOL And you'll see the buckets real use soon, in abot 2 weeks when I have enuff time off to do the proper photo shoot.

Oh now you tell me. Oh well, too late, the story's done.

lol, she made good use of those buckets!

That is so cute! Those buckets worked out perfectly. That is so nice of Tana and battrastard to send them to you.

You mean we get to see Kitty-Rin? You mean it, right? You are not just teasing us? I will be sad if you are just teasing Billy.

No teasing. I thought he wanted war, not kitty Rin. I got the correction too late.

So we are getting war or Kitty Rin? I am sure lots of people would vote for Kitty Rin, but I can't argue with war's ability to draw in an audience.

War might be too strong, but I don't know of any kitty Rin appearances on the schedule at this time.

That is OK. I can reminisce about the time Yukino, the master photographer, took photos of Rin as a kitty.

Thanks for all the praise guys, I appreciate it. But Manami has something she wants to add...

 

"Hey! Can we please see more Kitty Rin? Mitsuki did such a great job reminding me of how HAWT Rin is in a kitty suit that I want to see MOAR!!!!

 

PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE?"

 

 

And for the record, I didn't advocate war, only Kitty Rin. I think scripple only sees what he wants to see sometimes...

Agreed. So much agreed.

I'm certainly not against more kitty Rin. But it's tricky guessing Rin's mood toward such things at any given moment. XD

Pffftttt....

 

Look, we all know Rin would do ANYTHING for your attention scripple. Just muster up some strength and ask her to model something catlike for you again. I'm sure she owuld be all over that if YOU ask her to. Plus, Saber will likely enjoy the show too.

Hmmm, she might be willing to do it anytime I ask, but the amount of complaining I have to deal with varies greatly. Sometimes it's just not worth it.

Haha. I thought the exact same thing.

Ha ha! I guess you have a valid point there sir. Still, as long as I don't have to hear the complaints, I'm all for you asking her to wear kitty stuff again.

I'm getting to the point where I don't know if I should be frightened or not at how similar Yuriko is getting to be to Manami...

 

For starters I think they have the same head.

 

  baldylox said:

Hey Manami, how are you?

"Shh! I'm watching TV!"

Yuriko always has to have a front row seat when we are watching anime, and she sits right in front of the TV when Raven takes her into the living room. Her skin color is off because the TV is about 2 feet away.

 

 

  Manami said:

"I doubt it. Buckets are useless to me. Unless they're full of cookies or donuts."

Tamayuki has already collected some stories about Yuriko's consumption of desserts, and the list keeps growing...

And we can't forget the shoes...

 

 

And the groping sisters thing? Yep, and when I gave her the evil eye all she said was, "But Mama, I'm just helping Rainie sit up to watch cartoons!" If she tries it with Naiomi though, she will get her face backhanded.

 

There might be more similarities, but you'd have to ask Raven.
