♚ Thirty-Fourth Move - {Video}

[Ciel is sitting at his desk, writing in long fluid strokes. While he does look better, there is something...off about him. Perhaps it's the way he's shifting in his seat or perhaps it has something to do with the tight, angry expression on his face. Whatever it is, the Earl is unnerved.

Finally, he puts down his pen and struggles to stand up. Grimacing, he grips the desk and struggles to steady his breathing - which is suddenly becoming shallower and shallower. Tipping sideways, he falls to his knees and curls into a small ball.

His entire body is trembling and, though it is barely audible, it seems like he is whispering "Not again" over and over again.]


It's not the same. [He mutters, forcing himself to look up. A moment later, he scrambles back into his chair and bites back a hiss of pain.] I'm free.

[Glaring, Ciel reaches across the desk and pulls the recorder closer.]

What is causing this?

Pains. [He emphasizes the "s", sipping the tea with a grimace.] These aches bring up bad memories.

[An understanding expression crosses his face.]

I see. Perhaps something more potent than tea, then. Would you care for a hot toddy, Young Master?

[He arches a brow and nods stiffly.]

I would prefer that. [Wincing, he reaches down and touches his side.] It burns.

Perhaps the City is reminding all its members of their past pains.

How delightful. [He looks over Sebastian.] You might be next.

Perhaps. I shall just have to bear it if that happens.

Do let me know if you feel...different. I can't have you feeling under the weather for too long.

Hot Whiskey with a spoonful of honey.

Understood. Hopefully you will be able to handle the alcohol, Young Master.

[Just a smile. You know very well it's because Ciel is a child.]

[Mmmhm, right.]

Very well, hot whiskey and a spoonful of honey it is.
