07 ♚ Duex of Wands ♚ [Action/TLDR STUFF] White Rose Florist Shop
[With all the recent excitement.. Ciel hadn't had time to reflect on everything that had been happening. Well, today seemed as good a day as any. For once the shop was fairly quiet, and he didn't mind coming out from behind the counter to admire the white roses. As the stores namesake, it also happened to be one of Ciel's favorites. He walked over to the display and lightly cupped one of the blooms with one hand. The soft delicate petals were the epitome of floral perfection.
Closing his eyes briefly, he tried to pick a starting point. So far.. he'd managed to keep his contract with Sebastian a secret... for the most part. Dante was aware of it, possibly Billy Jukes also was.. depending on how closely he eavesdropped on that conversation or the impression he'd taken from it. Chloe- knew something was different about Sebastian.. that he wasn't human and that Ciel had a deal with him but..
He drew his hand away from the rose and pressed it to his eyepatch instead. No one had actually seen the contract inscribed on his eye. Still, he didn't enjoy the fact that three additional people might know his secret.
There seemed to be a sort of animosity growing between Chloe and Sebastian. Tch- Chloe had gone so far as to tell Ciel to rely on him instead of his butler. At least when part of the secret was revealed it hadn't completely shattered their partnership. Chloe was still of use to him.
Elizabeth on the other hand... he dropped his hand to his side. She'd seemed so disappointed in him after that whole aftermath no matter what the results had been or the intent. Beforehand.. he thought they'd been closer than they actually were, apparently. Her trust in him could be shaken so easily.. even though he'd also been trying to protect her.. she couldn't see that.
Thanks to Hades, he now held the knowledge of who burned down Phantomhive Manor and murdered his parents and he would stop at nothing to crush and humiliate them.
Now that he had the information he wanted... he needed to find his own world to finish the job. In the meantime.. it might be prudent to mend fences with the people here... as taxing as that could be. Ciel hadn't been the most diplomatic person.. at least.. not since Padme left.
As much as he did not want to participate in this "auction date" ... it would be an opportunity to possibly appease Elizabeth. With a sigh, he turned from the display. ]
... Best behavior..
[He spoke softly as if to keep the idea at the forefront of his mind.]
[After that he actually took the time to water some of the flowers.. which was a little odd since he usually left the menial tasks to Chloe]
