♚ 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.]

Were you planning to finish that sentence?

Ah-

... No, I suppose not, actually. I apologize. I just knew someone... like you.

I can't imagine anyone who is like me.

What is your name?

srsly- 1/??

It's the truth.

Interesting. What can you tell me about this City, Lady Tianzi?

[There's only a startled noise and a flash of Doll staring at him in surprise before the device cuts out again, not really feeling safe talking to him after what he'd said to her his last time here.]

Someone with such a bad attitude sounds likelier to have done the killing.

Impossible! Sebastian isn't allowed to die by any blade except my death scythe, he knows that!

In so far as we know, there is no definitive way out. The ones who claim to rule this place are several "deities". Every few days... we're inflicted with what we call "curses", that can be silly... or dead serious.

I- have a guide around here somewhere, it's old, but... still mostly accurate. Would you like it?

It would have been counter-productive if I had killed him.

Well, you... well...

[pause forever]

Well, fine. I guess. Maybe... It's a City that isn't Wonderland, and the weather can't be helped, so don't complain. Unless you're about to get sick.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
He died without you and without me. It seems he didn't need you after all.

Well what?

[Ciel turns away, releasing a sound that is strangely like a huff.]

I can handle myself.

[Ciel's eyes narrow and he feels a shiver climb up his spine.]

...Doll?

[No, surely not... She was dead.]

...







You're going to be sick, aren't you. I knew it.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-07-06 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I would appreciate that greatly. [He pauses.] You said you knew me before. Were we allies?

Are you deaf? I said I could handle myself.

How can you handle yourself, when you can't even lie well.
