By those rules, it would be wrong to ever say "I'll pack his things"... one can pack someone else's things, and one person can do the packing when the things belong to multiple people...

いいね。こちらこそ。
From today on, packing will start in earnest.
”From today" or "From now on".

Bought = Past tense of buy,
Brought = past tense of bring.
Which did you mean? If both are true, then either works. Depends on what you want to focus on.
edit: I see the Japanese version, nevermind.
