♚ Third Move - {Video}

[Ciel turns the recorder on and stares into it blankly. He is fiddling with the blue diamond ring on his thumb absently, clearly weighing his words before he speaks.]

Surely there is someone in this City that can offer a passage home. I can give you payment of a sort.

[He sighs, his expression not flickering in the least.]

Sutcliff, I would think that someone of your caliber could give me what I want? [A small smirk quirks his lips.] Or are the stories surrounding the Death Gods myths?

[Sitting back in his chair, the Earl lifts a single candle. The flame flickers as if it is about to go out. With a barely noticeable exhale, Ciel ends its short life, cooling the wick. Darkness enshrouds Ciel as he lowers the now useless candle.]

I do not want to speak about her. [Because it hurts too much, but he won't mention that.] Can you help me or not?

I wonder~

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

If only Sebas~chan were here!

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

He won't be coming.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Which is a pity- because I much prefer dealing with him to dealing with you, you know~

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

He's dead. How many times do I have to say that?

The idea of someone besides me killing him doesn't sit very well, I'll say!

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

But even if he is! The dead can still arrive here~!

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

I'm not counting on him arriving. As far as I'm concerned, I'm alone.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Oooh, what a lonely little picture...

Don't say it too loudly, though, little Phantomhive. There are more than death gods about~

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

Do you honestly think I fear them? I know how to keep myself safe, Sutcliff. Now, back to the beginning...

What do you know about escaping from this god-forsaken place?

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Name what you're supposedly offering me, boy?

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

I think you should name what you want besides Sebastian.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

You're asking.

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

I am asking for your help in exchange for something you want.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm~

Anything, I want, then?

[queens-guarddog.livejournal.com]

That is what I said.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

... but not Sebastian.
