[Sebastian wasn't entirely used to waking up in foreign places. He was rather good at keeping track of where he was and how he got there, but not today. None of what he was seeing looked or felt familiar. For a second he felt a spark of relief. He might finally have some space to-

No. He could feel it. Ciel was here. And he wasn't the only one. He eyes the device he is holding carefully before speaking in to it.]

Pardon me, but would someone so kindly inform me of my whereabouts?

[A pause.]

And if anyone could direct me to one Ciel Phantomhive it would be much appreciated.

[Sickly sweet, the words came. Oh how he wanted to just turn the other direction and run until he couldn't anymore. But he felt a certain obnoxious demon in the area as well and he needed to make sure either of them weren't doing anything particularly stupid.

[You're just lucky this is a video, Michaelis. Because Alois has no qualms in scarring handsome demon faces either.] Looks like you think he'd even want you around. He's actually very busy spending time with me, these days. You can always go help Claude in the kitchen.

If you are able to say such words certainly you do not understand my Master. I believed you understood what the bond a servant and master of our stature entailed. Perhaps I was wrong to assume you would understand such things.

I was never one to play by the rules. I prefer to make them. [A giggle.] After all, who has ever heard of a demon bound to serve another demon for eternity? Without ever getting to eat his soul? I hope your hunger won't make you feel too weak. After all, you will need to look after the dog.

Time and life are very malleable things, Young Trancy. [He doesn't cringe at the sound although he would like to.] Certainly you have your own butler that can take care of you.

[ronderotarel]

I do, indeed. He'll be most pleased to help keeping you busy. Just to make sure you don't try anything foolish. [His tone is much less playful, now.] Don't think you can just show up after two fucking months and do what you bloody like. You lost control over Ciel when you lost his soul forever, and there is no way I'm letting you get that back.

[Any playful but malicious intentions behind his words vanished the second Alois decided to confront him in such a way.]

I do not take orders nor advice from one such as yourself. Perhaps if you learned how to behave you wouldn't have to worry so much about 'losing' whatever it is you think you have found here. Soul or no soul, I am bound to Ciel Phantomhive and no amount of your meddling will ever change that.

[Even though he wasn't fond of the idea of being with a soulless master, he was even less fond of the idea of giving him to you, Alois.]

[ronderotarel]

[Alois' smile is back in place. It's the kind of smile he reserved to his Father and, in general, to the people he hated the most during his short lifetime.] Don't underestimate me. If I remember correctly, last time you fell in my trap pretty easily. [How could you have believed for even a second that he would have really given Ciel's soul to you once you served the purpose of killing Claude?] You are most welcome in our house, I can't wait to get to play with you again.

I'm certain it will be a most...interesting game.
