002 || It's Halloween, so what? Birthday! Fan service!

[bunny-hero.livejournal.com]

[It's Halloween. To others it might be just a day for costume and parties and candies, but it is different for Barnaby - it's his birthday. No one except Kotetsu knows, though... Not even his fans. There will be no Samantha's cake or the bunny plushie to celebrate his birthday, but who cares? So this birthday he decides to do something different - fan service.]

Good day to everyone in the Kingdom of Stars. This is Barnaby Brooks Jr.

[He is so used to facing the camera that he acts so naturally in his first network video, smiling charmingly at the screen.]

Recently I heard that there will be punishment for people who refuses to adorn themselves with costume, so I decided to prepare a few sets for the holiday. Yet, I don't really know which one to wear today morning. I would deeply appreciate your help in choosing the best costume for me.

[And he shows a few options on the screen. There are four in total.]

White Rose, the flower shop in the Disney Castle world, will be opened tomorrow with a special Halloween theme. Customers will receive complimentary gifts at their visit, no purchase necessary. I sincerely hope to see you there.

Thank you again for help. Have a great day.

[ I… wait… what’s this… ]

[Fan service was not exactly what Chloe expected to see on the network today. ]

Something tells me Ciel is going to react poorly to this.

[Settling in to enjoy the young Victorian’s reaction. ]

[Oh, these ancient people dated a few centuries back...]

Depends on what people choose for my costume. I don't think he has a problem with option B?

[He begins to imagine Ciel acting like an old conservative man in his 80's.]

1/10 - THIS WILL BE THE LONGEST CHAIN I'VE DONE IN A WHILE XD

[Ciel had been growing accustomed to the additional help at the shop. with another man up front it was making it easier for him to attend to the bookkeeping and inventory duties he preferred over the direct contact with customers.

He was also pleased to see that Barnaby could carry himself in such an affable manner...]

2/10 - AND I THANK YOU FOR IT XD

[no-souls-here.livejournal.com]

[.. Until that moment.]

[Shaking his head, the young Victorian swiftly looked away from the images that had just been before him. A touch of denial was setting in. He couldn't have just seen... what he thought he had. Could he?]

[Oh.My.Gawd.]

[This was actually happening. Barnaby was actually asking the masses which costume he should wear.. one of which was highly; inappropriate]

6/10

[no-souls-here.livejournal.com]

[AND HE USED THE COMPANY NAME.]

7/10

[no-souls-here.livejournal.com]

[THAT's IT. I'm officially a SILENT partner. If this is the kind of advertising we're going to engage in then I certainly don't want my name associated with this business]

[.. but everyone already knows that Chloe and I co-founded it. Chloe's flirting with the female customers is BAD enough... now THIS]

9/10 - Video flicks on

[no-souls-here.livejournal.com]

[Can you see it? Can you see the look of extreme displeasure on the boy's features as he looms down at the camera as if he might just start chastising you for the scandalous imagery?]

10/10 - I am sorry Ciel is such a prude XD. I love this post XDDD. <3 <3

[no-souls-here.livejournal.com]

[Private to Barnaby]

I suppose these gifts will be coming out of your salary?

[The remark was purely spiteful. If Barnaby had not offended the boy's sense of decency he would have found the complimentary gift idea a valid way to drum up more interest in the business]

I do hope that you'll at least have sense enough not to actually wear those abominations at work....

Nooo it's all goooood. BRING ME ALL HILARIOUSNESS

[bunny-hero.livejournal.com]

[Private back to Ciel]

[He really didn't expect the boy to react like this. How precious...]

I don't mind. It is a special day after all, and I think our customers deserve some gifts for their long-term support.

[Barnaby takes a glance at his black tights behind him. He was about to say he will zip it during work... But who cares!?]

That's what democracy is for, right? You have a choice to choose which attire should I wear...

[That boy should totally be sent to the modern era for schooling. ]

[speakstojeffy.livejournal.com]

[Blushing… Blushing so very badly. ]

I… For a flower shop, I mean… But it is Halloween and you should wear something… um, I don’t really know what I am trying to say…

Maybe I should just vote for number four.

[bunny-hero.livejournal.com]

...Oh, some option exists simply to offer customers more choice. If they prefer that, I go by my words.

Option D? Certainly! Thank you for the vote.

[Click. Another vote!]

By the way, costume D usually comes with a performance. If it is luckily chosen, I hope you will enjoy some entertainment at the flower shop.


[Sorry I am making this worse]

[speakstojeffy.livejournal.com]

A performance…?

[Who would have thought it was possible to turn any redder than she was already. ]

Like… like singing…? I think that would be… I mean…

[Flustered. ]

You can do that?

[ragnaroking.livejournal.com]

( she's chuckling. you're quite the fancy sort, aren't you? it's amusing, actually... ) Really goin' all out, aren't ya'?

Re: [ video ]

[bunny-hero.livejournal.com]

[Oh yes of course he is going all out. He is the fabulous BBJ after all!]

I do whatever it takes to please our customers. Of course, with a strict bottom line.

It pleases me to see people enjoying their times.

[ video ]

[ragnaroking.livejournal.com]

Yea sure, but if you ask me the bottom line on that first choice there sure doesn't seem all that strict.

[Have yet another slightly flustered girl, her eyes are downcast]

This is... uh... awfully generous of you.

[then realizes that might not sound quite right...]

I mean the gifts and all!

[Tries not to think about how a certain someone might look in some of those outfits]

I'm partial to C myself.. but it doesn't really look like a costume.

Re: Video

[bunny-hero.livejournal.com]

Option C is not quite a unique costume itself, but it is comfortable enough for me to do some dance moves.

And you are welcome! Just perceive it as a Trick or Treat programme offered by White Rose. We want to thank your support.

[Clicks... but cancels the vote thing again.]

Are you certain about option C? Or you would like some more time to think about it?

[blitz-acing.livejournal.com]

The zipper's on backwards on option A.

Re: [Video]

[bunny-hero.livejournal.com]

....Eh? Pardon me?

[ Joluk is from roughly the same time period as Ciel. He seems more confused than distressed.]

Wouldn't you be a bit cold in option A? and D?

Option C seems interesting. I vote for that.
