"Just how many books do you have in here?"

"My dear Yuuko, you should know that there is no such thing as 'too many books'. It's just a matter of keeping them in order."

"Which you don't."

"Well, they were in order until certain magical creatures decided that my library was a good place to play hide-and-seek."

"Hide-and-seek."

"Yes."

"In the library."

"Mm-hm."

"...can't believe I've missed that!"

"I don't see what's so funny about it, really."

"Look, if you're going to make me help you put this stuff in order, the least you can do is let me laugh."

"What's the logic in that?"

"None. Who cares? You laughed when they spilled ice cream all over my sofa."

"Ah, yes, I remember that..."

"Ice cream that you had given them, by the way. And stop laughing!"

"Why? According to your 'logic', if you can laugh over the ruins of the treasure of knowledge I'm leaving to the future generations, I can certainly laugh over a simple sofa."

"Just wait until someone spills ice cream over your armchair."

"Don't you dare."

"And don't think I believe that 'future generations' thing. Who's going to want to read these old dusty books?"

"A little black cat, for example."

"Clow?"

"Yes?"

"You're insane."

"Oh, I know that. One of the few things we have in common."

"...you evil bastard!"

"That, too."

"I don't know how I ever thought it'd be a good idea to work with you."

"Well, I could say the same, you know. Must have been drunk."

"Of course you were."

"Which was entirely your fault."

"Riiight."

"It was your tequila."

"And I suppose I also forced it down your throat."

"If I recall correctly, you did."

"Shut up and- did something just crash?"

"...I think I have lost another tea set."

"Aren't they adorable?"

"More like a force of nature. And a childish one at that."

"Well, they got that from you."
