6th Heart - A Toast to Good Business

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[And here's a sight that's been rare for a while. Jackie has appeared on the Plane, complete with a table. He opens it up and places it down on the Plane, before disappearing again.]

[And then he's back a few moments later. In one hand is a bucket filled with ice and four bottles of high quality champagne. And in the other, a rather large suitcase. He lays these out on the table, opening the suitcase to reveal a good number of wine glasses. He takes one and pours himself some champagne, before setting it down on the table and turning his attention to the rest of the Plane]

Anyone care to join me in a toast?

And what are we toasting, stranger?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

To good business and to solving problems.

[madamemoiselle]

{Smiling} Ne, it's been a long time Jackie!

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[And why not. Smiles back. Well, it's a very friendly looking smirk than a smile, but you get the picture] It has been. Too long.

[madamemoiselle]

So! Have things been good for you? Or have you been busy?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

[Takes a sip of his drink] Was busy and was not so great. But not anymore. Hence this toast.

Care for a glass?

[contract_star]

[Raising an eyebrow.] A toast to what?

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, certainly~ What vintage is it?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

To successful business ventures, to the continuation of that success.

[Pours her a glass]

1988. Had a few bottles in my cellar. A very good year, in my personal opinion.

[madamemoiselle]

Oh, was it? I was asleep then, so I have no idea. {She takes the glass and swirls it lightly before taking a sip}

Ah~ It's good!

[contract_star]

I wondered why I hadn't seen you in awhile. I take it things have been going well?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

What kind of toast?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Seems that way. At least from a wine perspective.

That was what I said. Good drink for good occasion.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

To success in business and to continued success.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Not until recently. Up until now, life has been very tense and unforgiving.

[contract_star]

Ah. Well then, congratulations on a turn of events.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Now, care for a glass of champagne?

[madamemoiselle]

Speaking of which, what happened to make you so happy?

[contract_star]

Sure, why not? Assuming it's not poisoned or something.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. [Pauses a bit.] Congratulations.

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Ryotarou. You feel like having a glass?

[stronguponme.livejournal.com]

You wound me. Besides, poisoning isn't my style. [Sharp grin as he pours you a glass. Take it however you want.]

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Ah... Not right now, thank you.

[anjelsword.livejournal.com]

I'll drink to that.
