I have books I need to get rid of— [...well. That's not right. He corrects himself.] —return. There's too many for me to carry, so I'll need help.

[Elliot, that's not a request, it's a demand. But this is Elliot Nightray—he does not and will never care. Housemates can find Elliot sorting through the books in his servant's room, trying to pile as many into a box as he can. This is going to take a while.

Others can find him hauling this stupid box of books to the library. It's especially cold today, but once again, Elliot does not care. He is getting rid of these books one way or another, dammit. It's only a small start, but he is tired of waiting.]

[Elliot isn't a very patient person, but he tries for you, Yotsuba. :'|]

Thanks. Now run along.

[He will play with you next time! Whether he likes it or not.]

[AWW BUT SHE WANTED TO PLAY NOOOW... If she has to run along then she wants to verify this future play time.]

You'll come and play with me later, right? We can play house.

[The truth is, Elliot has a weakness for cute things. So while a small part of him wants to tell this strange child no, he doesn't want to play games with her, a bigger part is telling him that yes, he should, because she is too cute and he should always play with her.

...besides. She wasn't such a bad kid.

He lets out a sigh.]

Fine. I promise. I promise I'll... [He lowers his voice in embarrassment.] ...play with you later.

He said he would play with me later!!

[This needed shouting out loud, just so anyone who might be around could here and know of this.]

Okay, later, later than now, we'll have lots of fun together!!
