"Your lies will catch up to you", hm? [Ciel is smiling smugly, one hand curled under his chin.] Should I be frightened or amused? I think, perhaps, I will choose the latter.

{Private to Cain & Mary.}

I have the contracts outlined. All I require are your signatures.

{Private to Sebastian.}

Find me an empty building for our store. We can use the mansion for toy manufacturing for now. I doubt we will have use for a factory.

I would like to know the number of children in the City. If you could let me know of your presence, I will make it worth your while.

You want for sacrifices?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
That isn't why I asked.

[identity profile] laughs-for-two.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
...well that's kind of creepy. There's not as many as adults. But there's some.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
Why is what I said creepy? Most would consider me a child myself.

[personal profile] orangetoughguy 2010-09-19 07:45 am (UTC)(link)
Because that doesn't sound suspicious at all.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
That is your opinion.
freckleddoll: (Freckles - wondering)

[personal profile] freckleddoll 2010-09-19 12:38 pm (UTC)(link)
The number of...what for?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:53 am (UTC)(link)
I would like to know the demographics of the City. Owning a toy company is troublesome if you don't have the right numbers.
freckleddoll: (Freckles - blimey)

[personal profile] freckleddoll 2010-09-24 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
...oh, right. So when I gave you those sweets...

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 10:00 am (UTC)(link)
I am the owner of Funtom Industries.
freckleddoll: (Freckles - so strange)

[personal profile] freckleddoll 2010-09-24 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I...should've realized that.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
It isn't everyday that a company is owned by someone as young as me.
freckleddoll: (Freckles - it's the basics)

[personal profile] freckleddoll 2010-09-24 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
You're startin' it up again 'ere?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
I am. Earl and Lady Hargreaves will be assisting me.

[identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 12:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Signatures and contracts--it all sounds so very formal.

And, you know, you could have worded that last question a bit differently.

[Private]

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:54 am (UTC)(link)
Why wouldn't it be formal?

I see nothing wrong with how I said it.

[Private]

[identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Most people don't bother in a place like this.

Surely you've seen the reactions of others to it by now.

[Private]

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I see no reason to drop the formalities. I would behave the same in any city.

That is their problem.

[Private]

[identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I see.

It might do you well to pay some attention to it. People here do tend to be a bit more suspicious than most, even if they are less formal than most.

[Private]

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
I am barely out of childhood myself. If they jump to conclusions about my intentions, I can't help that. [Though he can. He just doesn't want to.]

[Private]

[identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 12:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose it's only because they don't know especially well as yet.

Worth my while, huh? What are you going to do?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
Give you a gift, of course.

[identity profile] mytechskeeper.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Children? Oh, I suppose it's for your manufacturing isn't it?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it is. [He's glad someone understands.]

[identity profile] mytechskeeper.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I hope you find useful information. Actually there are a number of children at the City Orphanage, perhaps you'd benefit from visiting there. [Fortunately she was aware of all this already so assumes the better things.]

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you for that information. I may pay them a personal visit. [She's very helpful!]

[identity profile] mytechskeeper.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 12:09 pm (UTC)(link)
You;re welcome, I wish you luck on finding what you're looking for in your research. [That's just her nature.]

[identity profile] eagleofautozam.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe if you stopped lying then they wouldn’t catch up to you?

[Helpful fortune cookie advice. ]


There are a lot of children in the City… though I have no idea just how many there are. Why do you ask exactly?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
That would take the fun out of life. [Not that he has much fun, mind you.]

I need to know the general numbers for my company.

[identity profile] eagleofautozam.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)

You run a company?

What kind of company is it, may I ask?


[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
A toy company, though we do offer other products.

[identity profile] eagleofautozam.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
Have you been able to set up this toy company of yours in the city?

[A smile. ]

Or maybe you are still in the fact finding stage of development, since you are trying to discover how many potential customers you might have?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
I am working on it currently.

[He sighs.]

Precisely.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
...thank you.

[identity profile] bufferprincess.livejournal.com 2010-09-19 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
If I was a child I would stay FAR away from an offer like that.

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
No toys for you, then.

[identity profile] deathbutler.livejournal.com 2010-09-20 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
You might look cuter, quaking in fear~

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
Why -

[He sighs.]

Do you plan on scaring me?

[A quiet laugh.]

Of course, Young Master. I suppose I shall have to prepare myself for even harder labor now?

[identity profile] queens-guarddog.livejournal.com 2010-09-24 09:58 am (UTC)(link)
For now. It will get easier once we make a profit. [He won't work you to the bone, Sebastian. He will just work you to a normal human death.]

Earl Phantomhive, are you really sure you want to include me in this?

private

[identity profile] ms-marycontrary.livejournal.com 2010-09-29 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I'll try my best, then. Is there anything you need me to do right away, once we've signed?
