Dessert 3 - Video

[Ciel seems hesitant for a brief moment before sighing. Should he really be doing this? Probably not.]

Has anyone been seeing anything... particularly odd recently? [Not naming any specifics, but he did just have a Footman die on him. B(]

[Finally, as the shock drains out of him, Snake takes a step closer, and then another and another. One hand jerks up before he forces it down again. He's curious, so curious and worried, but anxious as well.]

In.... our world...? That's why you truly wear the patch..?

There's a lot more going on there than you realize. This? [He points to the contract in his eye.] This is the result of a revenge scheme gone all but right. They nearly erased the Phantomhive name from the map. Only problem was that they weren't counting on me selling my soul.

[Ciel pauses a moment. Lordie, he's revealing things he probably should not. To date, Snake would only be in a small handful of people who know. 3, maybe 4.]

[Snake is silent still, staring down at the ground as his mind races. His friends are beginning to gather now, but only Webster and the viper brothers wrap around his shoulders, whispering and reminding.

Unaffected by Webster's venom, the deadliest Snake knows of... Quick enough to stop the fastest of his snakes in midair...]


Sebastian... Michaelis...

[action ] 1/2? Wry does he get so crazy sometimes?

Correct. Really, have you ever wondered where that 'I'm one hell of a butler' thing came from? [Stupid lame demon.]

[Damn that demon. Were he here, he probably would have stopped this, but... Ah well.]

Don't mistake me for that murderer. I have a damn good reason for this contract--one I will not be sharing today.

[Snake won't respond to that; the less he knows about this, the better. At least if he wants to keep his view of the world intact.

But while this is all very fascinating, even horrifying...]


While you may have a contract with a creature like that, we can only make use of what he have in the present, says Wilde...

[Translation: You'll still die if the Operator comes after you.]

[... Damn you for having a good point. That seemed to being Ciel back down to a manageable level, and he sighed, recovering his eye. It doesn't matter that Snake knows--it's not something he likes to have out there for the world to see.]

That's a more curious aspect of this. I wonder how much seeing that might deter this being. My soul's been claimed. [It might be slightly disturbing, how nonchalant he said that.]

Regardless, can we really let it just happen?

[It is, actually. Snake truly doesn't like hearing that said. For a brief moment, he looks uncomfortable before his expression fades back into stoic nothingness.]

...This place takes in humans and those not from more places than perhaps the mind can think of them, doesn't it? Is what Webster asked.

[action]

[Clearly, Ciel is not perceptive enough to note his discomfort. Or perhaps he doesn't really care? Who knows.]

I should think so. An undefined amount of alternative places...

[Ciel pauses, giving him a questioning look.]

What are you thinking? [Hmm. Interesting...]

[Snake listens to his companions; Goethe and Webster have always been better at putting words together.]

We are capable of nothing on our own, for we possess no particularly useful talents- at least not for this situation, Webster says. But there may be others in this city who are used to a creature such as the Operator, and would know ways to defend oneself against it, if not kill it.

...A mere suggestion, says Goethe.

And a rather suitable one it is. Finding the people who are most suited to this and actually getting them to agree to fight though... that will be the trick.

[He pauses.]

Perhaps we should hold some kind of gala that would draw out these talented individuals.

Shall we make preparations then, sir?

[Hm, that's right, they'd actually need time to plan...]

It will take some time. Let's hold off for the moment. I'm going to see what information surfaces.

[action] ..Snake wants to threadjack that Slendy thread so hard.

[identity profile] saythesnakes.livejournal.com 2011-04-30 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Very well.

[He still doesn't like the sound of all of this, considering the last time he was on a SFC. But he'll simply bow his head.]

Would you like something to drink or eat while you respond to them?

[action] GO FOR IT. <3333

[identity profile] wherzmabutler.livejournal.com 2011-04-30 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shaking his head.] Not in particular. Bad business to conduct communication while eating.

Perhaps in an hour.

[action] I'll check if Slendy is alright with it. <3

[identity profile] saythesnakes.livejournal.com 2011-04-30 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
As you wish.

[Pondering on the differences between working for a noble and working in the circus, Snake gives a bow and leaves.

...Where he will then almost paranoidly watch his SFC and the clock alternatively.]
