Hope everyone had a happy holiday. I was pleasantly surprised by my oma and opa this year. They flew all the way out to L.A. to see me...and bless them, they didn't bring my parents.

I didn't get back to the office until late this afternoon so it was a nice treat to find presents for me there too.

Henry, the book you put together is amazing, I'm sure it took you a while to find all of those compositions and put them all together like this.

That mirror you gave me, Herr Greed, is absurd...I love it. I spent an entire afternoon putting things in front of it...and I've found a very practical use for it.

Herr Justice, I'm not sure who Sheryl Nome is, but the CD was superb and so were the plecks! As for the finger painting...I wonder who gave you that bit of inspiration. It's going on my wall in the office!

Daryan I had a nice chat, sorry I couldn't stay a little longer, but visiting time was limited. Hope you enjoyed the gifts.

Danke Schön!

On a more serious note...is it un-neighborly to want to put up a hedge between your home and your new neighbor's home? I say this because I have these new neighbors...moved in not too long ago and they have a very interesting lifestyle. They're nice people and all but... I did get some very unhelpful advice when I went to the office. An associate of mine told me to write an anonymous letter...a brilliant idea in theory until you get down to the writing:

Dear Neighbors,

Not that I don't enjoy the view, but your bedroom window looks right into my bedroom window. I would be much obliged if you'd invest in some curtains.

Signed,

You can see the gaping holes in this can't you? And it's like watching a train wreck, you don't really want to, but when it's there for all the world to see it it's just kind of hard to look away. Then you want to go burn your corneas out with some liquid plumber. You see the dilemma?

If you want yer ass kicked that bad, we can cut out the middle man.

Oh, what do you care, anyway? He's a guy, ain't he? You gonna coddle him like some weak, defenseless woman? You're really playing the whole white knight bit a little too hard, don't you think?

You're focusing too much on him and forgetting the part where I hate you.

Did you forget the part where I threw you through a fucking wall? I thought maybe you'd wise up after that, but I guess I must have crushed what few brain cells you had left rattling around in that hollow skull of yours!

Cocky. Then you got no problem just dealing with me direct like.

It's more comfortable for you when I'm in grabbing range, isn't it? Why bother getting my hands dirty when I can sit here and watch you squirm!

You little piece of chickenshit, I'll...

Guess that's why you couldn't be that much use to your old man, either. With all yer "Homunculi are the best!" stuff, you'd think you'd do somethin' that'd at least be hard for a ten year old girl to do, but you wanna go after this one, and trash talk. Anyone can bruise a peach.

...What do you mean I'm "no use"...? I've been tasked with only the most important jobs for Father! I'm his right-hand man!

Oh. Really. I see, I see...

What part of getting pickled in a jar, selling yourself to a hot goddess, shimmying into an ugly red dress, tying the knot, and dirtying the sheets and slicing peaches is helpin' that most important job? Man, "Father"'s a complex guy with complex plans...

Oh, like you're one to talk! You couldn't even manage guard duty without flipping your shit and going after Wrath! I've still got plenty of time to nab those brats before "that day" arrives, so who cares if I goof off for a bit on the job? I'm just waiting for the most opportune moment to make my move...

Someone made a Wrath?

Duh! There are seven of us in all, dumbass! Wrath's the youngest one!

Must've been after I left.

Yeah, he's only about sixty years old or so...
