Hey, Dad.

Come on in.

Been a while, huh?

So, uh, where's this new dog of yours?

*glance*

*look*

Here, I got you some souvenirs. Michiko made you some chicken stew, too. Oh, and I picked up some cool snacks at the train station. Whatcha think of the shades? The doc said I should try 'em out in the hot weather...

He's so impatient...

*twitch*

Took a walk around on my way here. It's a nice area - parks an' everything!

Back when I was your age I was all about living in the big city, but I guess the burbs are pretty nice too, huh?

Now, about that dog...

*tmp*

*tmp*

Oh, here he is.

*tilt*

Just come in already.
