I've been thinking, the last time we held a formal banquet at the Onsen, it did rather well and was a lot of fun. Would anybody be interested in having another? I was thinking I might try a different theme this time, I note many people tend to wear a certain style of clothing and armor and carry straight-bladed swords. The style I've seen looks

I wouldn't mind attending. I do have a question, though. From the sound of it, the style of clothing you just described sounds similar to my own. Am I correct?

[aboveheaven]

You are. Much akin to the clothing you wear, actually, although probably a bit more ceremonial. I note that your clothing moreso than some of the others is particularly high quality, and is generally what I had in mind.

[rolands_heir]

I see. Well, I was born into a noble family, which explains the higher quality of my garments. Still, we had even more formal outfits for various balls and ceremonies that we were expected to attend. I still have my outfit from the ball, so perhaps I'll wear that.

[aboveheaven]

Good idea. I'll see if anybody is particularly adept at the style, perhaps we can boost some other businesses as well.

Waitwhatbanquethuh. I have an awesome idea. Let's use paper plates. Then we can give that cute dishwasher the night off. They had paper back then, right?

[aboveheaven]

Paper plates? I would never think to use such things for a banquet. No, we will be using the best dishware we have available. I imagine there will be quite a bit of dishes, so please make sure to handle them carefully. Since we'll be rotating them constantly, I will be leaving specific instructions for the quick cleaning and sanitization of all dishes to prepare them for use again as soon as possible. I'll have to leave Ms. Etna a copy as well, so she can make sure the staff understands the expected standards.

You are a wicked person and I wish I could hate you to death.

[aboveheaven]

Technically I'm already dead.

[heroic_commoner]

...would you be preparing the food again?

[aboveheaven]

I would.

[heroic_commoner]

In that case, I'll be sure to be there.

[aboveheaven]

We'll be glad to have you.

...The last time this happened... was there a large mess to clean up?

[aboveheaven]

We tried to keep it reasonable throughout the night, but yes, the mess was rather extensive. If possible, I will try to provide additional payment to all servers involved.

[shitsuji_sorewa]

But Etna-sama cruelly forces me to clean the onsen without pay so that doesn't really help me too much...

Err, I-I mean um, I appreciate that!

A masquerade banquet? Interesting.

The last one was a rousing success and it's been quite some time, so I definitely want to have another.
