[ That's... fine too, okay. Ayabe sits on the bed instead, and "I wanted to show you my room" sounds stupid so he doesn't say that either, and instead goes with the original reason why he wanted to talk. ]
I wanted to talk to you about your groundskeeping job, if there was any way to make it more fun or interesting so you'd want to do it. Or maybe get Plum to take over your job for the time being, and I could do hers...
[ And Pumpkin would be free to play all day!!!! Plum would never agree to this. ]
[ as ayabe gives his spiel, pumpkin's eyebrows raise until they almost disappear into her bushy hair... but then she just flops back into her seat with a roll of her eyes and a groan. ]
[ Plum doesn't have to know-- no, she'll figure it out in a heartbeat. It would have worked out so nicely though, everybody would be happy. Except Plum. ]
It was worth a try... Why is she so insistent that you be the groundskeeper instead of another job you wouldn't mind doing as much? There are other ways you can help.

Do you just find it tedious, or hard work? You seem to like games; chores can be made into something like that.
[ With like a sticker sheet and everything, this works for five-year-olds. ]

I guess that comes with being the master of the house... What does he do outside of hosting events like this? Is he a CEO of some company?
no subject
[ it's said very simply, as if it will answer every question ayabe has asked, is asking, and will ask. ]

Stefano was hoping to get a camera, and said he asked you about it? I told him I would try asking you again.
no subject
[ ???????? ]

[ He was so irritable like two days in, imagine having to live with Stefano a week out with no camera, he's going to go feral. ]

Master Blue's been looking busy for all your stuff... nothing's come up yet, though, so tough luck for him.
