faustianphantom: (I'm Not Comfortable!)

♚ First Move - {Video}

[The screen shakes as Ciel tries to operate the - to him - foreign device. His pale fingers are wrapped so tightly around the camera that his knuckles are white. To add to this picture of desperation, the boy is clenching his teeth.

Oh and his hands are covered in blood.]


Where the hell am I?! [He shudders intensely, his one visible eye filled with betrayal and pain.]

I want answers now! [The only saving grace for the dear Earl is that he was able to change out of his nightshirt. But it's clear that he is only partially dressed.]

It's too bloody cold out here... [He stumbles and falls to his knees, dragging in short, pained breaths.]

A wise thing to appreciate around here.

...Queen Victoria?

Quite sane.

[Smiles pleasantly]

And it must be another planet… since it clearly isn’t Autozam or Cephiro…

[Two planets from his dimesion.]

I am a businessman.

Indeed.

Rido Kuran. Head of the Royal House of Kuran.

You seem to have manners, young Earl~. Am I wrong?

[That last portion answers his question.]

I see, I see. [Conclusion: This man is delusional.]

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
I see. That sounds like a noble family.

I have had etiquette drilled into me since I was a child. Of course I have manners.

Do as you wish.

Interesting business, if it results in you half-dressed and covered in blood.

By popular reckoning around here, it's the year 2010. You've advanced more than a century through time. Spectacular enough yet?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
That had nothing to do with business.

...2010? [The year is almost incomprehensible to him.] That's impossible. Surely there is a better explanation than that? [Such as this "City" lying to its guests.]

[identity profile] prefers-chess.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Personal matters then, I gather.

If it's impossible, then explain the means by which you're talking to me right now.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
You are correct.

What year are you... [He scowls. The madness was catching, apparently.] What year were you born?

[identity profile] eagleofautozam.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Where are you from then? Where you don’t know of other planets yet?

[identity profile] prefers-chess.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
I stand to gain nothing by telling you. Quite the contrary, doing so will likely only undermine any credibility I might have, since it's clear you still don't believe it's any year other than 1888.

But I will tell you that I'm twelve.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
I am from London, England. That would be on planet Earth. I do know of other planets, but they don't have life on them.

Think higher. I did say Royal. You may call me Rido-sama.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
You might be correct again.

Ah. I am a year older than you.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
Are in line for a throne, then? Unless you are a King or a Prince, I'm afraid you are simply noble rather than royal.

Rest assured, you're not the only inmate displaced from their own time. Nor are you the earliest resident here; there's at least one from a century in your past, as well.

I cannot stop you from disbelieving me. However, bear in mind that you are still currently in a disadvantageous position, I have as yet done nothing but attempt to assist, and I have no motive to mislead you.

From Earth?
That is the same planet Hikaru said she was from…

I suppose you were pulled from your world and deposited in this one against your will? It seems to be the same story for most of the people here, I notice.

*omitting certain... details... >.> *

I know the difference well enough to state it accurately. I am a King... despite my country having been misplaced for the moment.

It is a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty. I have had extensive experience with royals, but I have yet to meet a King.
