In speaking with my ever growing crew, it has come to my attention that perhaps what we all need to get us through this little cold spell is a distraction. Now, I'm sure you've all found a great many ways to pass the time, but I was thinking that this could be an excellent time to share some stories. I know I have quite a few myself, and I'm sure you lot have your own to share as well, so let's take this as an opportunity!

Here are a few of my own:

Of course, there are far more where that came from, and I'll be more than glad to share a few more.

There's friendly and there's saying things like "the only treasure here is love!" and calling you all familiar-like when you've never met before. They can keep that off my island.

I think they don't do it to be familiar or rude, Motochika-san. I think it's the way people from Western countries usually greet each other.

As for "the only treasure here is love", I admit it's a nice ideal. [Even if not a very realistic one.]

Yes, well, then you can go to Kyushu and join up with them when you go home. I'll not have that nonsense on my island, especially considering they keep stealing my weaponry and my automata.

They steal from you? Well in that case I reckon you have a very good reason not to like them.

[Also she's starting to get that 'his island' is not Japan. Not the totality of it, at least.] I forgot to ask but... what's the name of your island?

Shikoku. I believe I've said as much. That island and the sea that surrounds it shall belong to no other so long as I live.

Oh. My apologies. I thought you'd meant Japan altogether.

Shikoku is a very beautiful island.

It most certainly is! I'd have no other, that's for certain.

Then I hope you'll find a way to return there soon.
