Lord Foras is fed up with his overbearing parents.

"So, how is it, Professor? How is my daughter doing?" "Well, that’s a difficult question to answer..." "My daughter is a student at this university, and you’re the department head here, aren't you? Surely you’d have some grasp of the situation regarding your students." "Do you have any idea how many thousands of students are on this Eastern Territory campus alone? Besides, your daughter is in the Law and Politics Department, while I’m in Mineralogy. We have absolutely no connection to one another." "Even so, since we're on the same campus, surely you’d hear a rumor or two—or three—about her?" "That’s a bit of an exaggeration... (sighs) Well, she *is* a celebrity, being your daughter and all (mostly because of *you*). Plus, she has a lovely personality. She’s popular with both men and women." "Is that so? ...That’s my daughter for you. She’s cut from a different cloth than your average woman—truly exceptional." (Smug look) "You really shouldn't say things like that in public, you know? You'll end up in the *Eastern Daily* with a headline like 'Mr. Asmodeus Makes Another Controversial Remark!'" (-_-;) "Those blasted gutter-press hacks! All they do is twist people's words! I suppose I’ll have to go to the Central Government and have them suppressed—" "Oh, stop it already." (^_^;) "Hm? Come to think of it, you said something interesting earlier, didn't you? 'Popular with both men and women,' you said." "Oh—" (;'∀') "So there are that many men swarming around her!? Damn it, this is a grave situation! I’ll mobilize my legions right now and conduct a sweep of the entire university—" "Give it a rest! I’m going to have your wife scold you again!" (# ﾟДﾟ) It’s a real headache dealing with these kinds of overbearing "monster parents" in the human world these days, too. (￣▽￣;)
