[When the feed flicks on it reveals Ciel standing before the camera in what is obviously the flower shop. Grasped between his fingers is an egg, but it looks a bit peculiar, and is definitely not a chicken egg]

Who do I have to… thank .... for this?

[He’d received the thing from one of Hermes’s deliveries but there was no return address, nor would Hermes divulge the sender. Not being all that familiar with Pokemon he really didn‘t know what to make of it and was liable just to have Sebastian use it in an omelet ]

You’re a bit early. Easter is nearly five months away.

[Seriously. Why would anyone send someone an egg in such a manner? It had Ciel completely baffled with it’s absurdity]

All right, everyone, listen up!

[It's Dante and he's on the video feed decked in his pirate captain attire with a new addition: a monkey on his shoulder.]

It's my birthday today and thanks to you guys, it's been amazing. The best. I was thinking, why end all the fun there? I figured I'd treat us all for something nice!

[And he gives the monkey the communicator so it moves farther away like they had practiced.]

In honor of my special day, I decided to do a party. We got food, we got booze, we even got juice for all the minors who want to take a ride on my ship. What better time to take it on a maiden voyage than to party? Everyone's invited! If you don't know me, you definitely have to bring me a present though. It's only fair.

[And his pet drops the communicator to climb up Dante's coat and onto his shoulder again. He's chuckling.]

I wasn't done yet, Charlie. Anyway, I know you guys love me so don't be shy. Get yourselves to Port Royal, my ship is really hard to miss at the docks. It's the only one that doesn't smell bad.

Dante~! I have something for you too, happy birthday~!

[ although the circumstances under which they had met had not been ideal, or even remotely pleasant, they had all still managed to derive comfort from each others company. they had grown a little bit closer, as it were, and it's chloe's fault it's only a little bit. in any case, in the midst of the mist pandemic they had started a game in order to pass the time. sadly, however, they never had the opportunity to finish, ...and so here they were or, at least, here is where they would be. ]

[ ...as it was after hours sebastian had taken it upon himself to do some rearranging. it made little sense to have the party split, and so he joined two of the smaller tables together to create a larger one to dress for his guests. he spread the table with a few snacks and also made sure to put the appropriate materials down ( like the dice surprise! everybody's got special set ). ]

( ooc | it's game night continued. dnd people, get in here! everybody else feel free to stop in to chat, eat, or play ( you can choose any game ). it's another free for all. no required roll call this time, so just jump in with your own thread. if you'd like to barge in / knock, go right ahead, and i'll do my best to respond promptly and accordingly. and most importantly, have fun. )

[ Video / Traverse Town Action]

[Leonardo stood on the precipice of the clock tower in Traverse Town, the highest point in the city. He was bent over a wonderful new invention... well, to him it was new, it was called a telescope! The painter looked from the machine to his notes to jot down an observation in a messy backwards Italian mirrored script. ]

ıssıɟ onos non ıdnoɯ

[(The worlds are not fixed.)]

[Then he looked back to the stars he was gazing at through his new toy... or at least he would have if the moogle standing behind him hadn‘t picked that moment to pitch a bit of a, “how much longer is this going to be, kupo!” tantrum.]

Si, si, nearly done. Just a final world...

[Leonardo returned to his note to expertly jot in the final piece, just a quick sketch of the one world that was missing from this commission. ]

And, there! Tutto fatto!

[(All done!)]

You might want to be careful with it my friend, the ink will still be wet.

[The warning doesn’t stop the moogle from wandering over and shining it’s camera down on the commission he paid for. A map of the worlds of Star Kingdom. Just what he wanted!

Large Image )
And sadly somewhere, in a Traverse Town house... Dante‘s poor home would be littered with sketches and notes outlining the progression of this piece. Leonardo was not the most tidy or organized person around. It could be weeks before the poor kitchen table could be found again. This is what can happen with a disordered houseguest around.
]

Is the machine still on? [The moggle nods.] There is something I should ask while it is.

I am currently looking for commissions. If you need a sculpture or a painting done I would be at your service. I also have some experience with machinations for moving water, war machines, and theatrical equipment... though I am told that expertise might be a bit dated. Oh! If you would like a copy of the map? It might come in handy for your journeys?

[Video - God filtered to Sebastian, Ciel, and the dark-aligned residents of Star Kingdom]

Alright look, we have been working against each other the entire time... I don't know about you but I am getting tired of working at cross purposes. So, how about this? The hero-types have their own 'cute, little' organizations, why don't we form one?

We could form our own, Dark Society!

This way I won't accidentally interfere in your plots, you won't interfere in mine, quid pro quo.

And certain... dark fairies who keep involving former conspirators in their pathetically aimless plots can be dealt with by the group unless they decide to fall in line.
Come on, what do you say? It's better than ruining each others schemes, isn't it?

I am sure that many of you have noticed the strange effects the mysterious fog is having on everyone... I believe it best to stay inside and, if possible, away from all doors and windows. [ for what sebastian hopes are obvious reasons. ] If you happen to be in Traverse Town or by my Bakery please let me know immediately. I have created something of a safe haven in its basement and there is still plenty of room left. [ looks aside as his tone drops to that of a whisper. ] ...let's hope it leaves as swiftly as it came.

[ The screen flickers on and a young man with snowy hair and ice blue eyes appears. He doesn't say anything for a moment and the expression on his face looks one part confused one part angry, and generally worried. He bites his lip, and then finally speaks. ]

I'm looking for this girl. She's got red hair and she's wearing a white robe and a gold pendant...

[ The worry in his voice elevates and he looks away for a moment. He's far more concerned about the fate of this one girl, this one person that he really honestly loves, then about the fact that apparently his world has just been destroyed. Because... she kind of is his world? Holy shit that sounds cheesy and he was only just thinking it. He kind of wants to smack himself for coming up with such a bad romance novel romance novel cliche but manages to refrain from doing as much. ]

Look, her name is Kyrie. Has anyone seen her?

[ She HAD to be around somewhere, right? And if she wasn't... well Nero wasn't exactly sure what he was going to do. ]

Or tell someone tell me how to get back, I mean my world isn't completely destroyed-destroyed, right? There has to be something left that I can search through... I really don't care if it's dangerous or anything.

[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]

[The video feed cuts on, And Usagi's cheerful face is only partially obscured by what looks to be a very elaborate dessert drink -- likely one she's helped whatever cafe craft herself. So it reminds her of home.

She offers the camera a wink.]


I hope everyone's having fun with the auctions! [There's a pause, and she lifts a hand to scratch the back of her neck sheepishly.] It looks like we made a lot of mistakes... It looks like a lot of people didn't sign themselves up, we're super sorry! Next time we'll make sure nothing like this happens again.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't make the best out of the situation! We're raising a lot of money, and you might have a lot of fun on your dates! So don't be too down, okay? [She offers another, brighter smile, though the expression falters slightly as the video ends.]

[Fai appeared on the feed as beside him sat a cute little cat drinking some water he had left for the dear and some food that a cat should be able to eat without getting sick.]

Ever since those attacks, I've notice this little guy here appearing around my cafe. So my question is does this cute little cat belong to anyone? If not I'll probably take the little guy in until I find him a home. [He sits behind the counter watching as various customers come and simply stare at the creature.]

Good afternoon and welcome to the Cat's Eye. Don't worry about the cat, he doesn't stray to where it will effect business. He pretty much spends the whole time laying there once he's full. [He stands up to go serve the customers as the cat soon finishes and stretches before laying across from the device. Fai could he heard in the background serving the customers as the cat spots the device with ears as the next moment it pounces, knocking the thing to the floor and switching it off. Kitty is going to play with the mouse eared device, it looks fun.]

[ once in front of lenalee's residence does sebastian slow to a stop. his lips quirk in a smile as he fetches an envelope that's tucked away in his breast pocket. stooping down sebastian slides it beneath the door and, turning on his heels, he returns to his shop. ]

[ the letter reads: ] ms. Lenalee.

I, first off, ought to apologize for the delay in my response. I had wanted to congratulate you sooner on making a favorable impression during our interview... but certain events prevented such. I am pleased, however, to be writing now to inform you that there's an open position at Devil's Food Cakes for you. If you're interested please contact me as soon as possible.

-- Sebastian Michaelis


[ and several minutes later sebastian is back home. it's late, thus the bakery's technically closed, but there are still several lights on inside. dead center, for anybody that's looking, sits a table dressed for two ( possibly three ). ]

[ it's become habit, so to speak, to cook for those he shares a roof with... and so he's moving between the kitchen and the dining room outfitting the table with a scrumptious looking array of foods. hopefully the smell will be enough to draw hermione from her room and away from her studies. cheza, too, if she'd like some company, since he figures she won't be partaking in this particular set of delights. ]

[ sebastian's made a lot of food. perhaps a bit too much food. anybody that happens by the bakery feel free to pester him for some. no doubt the smell is wafting out onto the streets. ]

[ Cheza's face appears on the communicator, looking very pleased and happy. she looks as though she's in a new place instead of her usual spot near the gutters behind the hotel. there's a skylight above her in the room that she's currently in ]

Everyone, this one has a home! There is plenty of sunlight, moonlight, and plenty of water for this one.

Thank you...for everyone's help when this one was trapped. And thank you to those who helped the others that were in trouble. If you are still hurt from the events, this one...will help as much as possible. This one does not know magic, but there is much more that this one can help with.

[ she nods to herself then ]

This one is still in Traverse Town - at Sebastian's Bakery, if you decide to visit.

[ she gives a small smile, deciding to get off of the communicator for now as she's going to look around her new home. she'll reply though asap! ]

Thank you, come back soon!

[The morning bustle was finally easing down and Hermione was at the register giving the last customer inside the shop their goods. She offered them a smile before turning around and moving to the ovens to check on the deserts.]

I believe I've succeeded in keeping the shop on its feet. Sales have gone up marginally by five percent! I'm sure mister Michaelis will be pleased. [She pulls some cupcakes out of the oven and moves over to the frosting, tasting just a bit before moving it aside to prepare the decorating.]

I hope everyone is doing well after our last fight. I saw through the network there were still a few of you with some wounds. Although my time is very much limited at the moment, I could easily make a potion for those ailments if someone offered to bring me the right ingredients for it. Very simple things, really. If you have a strong stomach.

[And she's going to start decorating. She's gotten really good at this baking business.]

To anyone else, I would gladly enjoy some tips about running a bakery. I don't want to make a mess of things.

[PRIVATE TO VERGIL]
I hope you're well. I never did get to thank you.

[PRIVATE TO EAGLE]
I received a package from you, thank you for the blocks! Please, let me repay you back somehow. Do you like pastries?

[The video is on. But Rumpelstiltskin is unaware of this, largely because it was turned on as it was flung against a wall.

He's having a bit of a tantrum. These are, thankfully, quite rare, but also quite violent. There is broken glass strewn about, vials and bottles shattered and small pools of variously colored liquids.]


Useless! All of this entirely useless. How is it there's not one pair in true love in this entire mess of an existence?!

[It's about here his eyes fall on his communicator and he realizes he's being watched. He straightens up a bit, schools his face into a bit of a smile. Tense around the edges, pulled a bit too taut over his features.]

Well dearies, sorry you had to see that. Call it a bit of frustration and homesickness. I suppose perhaps while I have some of your attention, I should make the most of it. What is the happiest memory you have? What would you be willing to sacrifice to reclaim it?

Well these things are all sorts of convenient.

[The Devil-boy is back in his office with some new spoils from his last battle. That vase he stole from Hades is being used properly. Unfortunately, he couldn't find the dried fruits the Lord of the dead was telling him about but cookies did just as good. He's stuffing his face.]

A dead witch and a trapped God, I think this is a job well done. To all you people with some bad injuries, take a load off. Stay in bed. Buy yourself some cake. If you can't walk, tell a friend to do it for you. We all deserve a little break. [And he'll stuff his face again. Thank goodness he doesn't have a shirt on, it would be full of crumbs.]

I'm thinking about a little trip myself. Maybe Neverland, I heard about a good fishing hole. But not before I take out my lady one a date. What do you say Musa? You can't say no to me now, you don't want to reject me in public do you? Please don't.

[PRIVATE TO FAI]
How are you doing, mister Titan? That should be our nicknames now. We take on God's, we should get a medal. Or food. That's good payment in some countries.

[PRIVATE TO SALEH]
Hope you found your way back home. Sorry I had to leave you dry after the food. I'm still on the clock but feel free to crash at my place for as long as you want. Nap it off. Make yourself at home.

All right. Now how exactly am I going to move these things.

[The restoration of the castle on Radiant gardens is back on track! The bad part: none of the people around the city want to go into the castle. Sure, there's still some random heartless running around, but Seto took control. They won't attack. Hopefully.]

Everyone expects things to fix themselves but that's not how life works. I ordered all of these supplies but what's the point of having them if I can't hire any workers! They couldn't even leave them inside, stupid useless cowards.

[He rubbed his forehead, this was annoying. He lifted his arm and picked up his deck looking through the list of monstor's he owned.]

I don't a duel monster would appreciate manual labor. This is ridiculous.

[The feed blips on and he's...seated. Quietly. In a hotel room by the looks of it. All by himself. A rather strangely ordinary scene, given the bustle of the town outside the window around him and he seems so out of place among all these strangers with his finely cut millionaire's suit and his silvery, perfectly aligned hair…He's a bit dazed, from the look on his face. His hair falls just so to cover the left side of it as he regards the screen calmly. Almost too calmly for someone who's just been brought here.]

I've been told this is what they call "Traverse Town".

Am I dreaming?…At least, this might be a dream, as I don't remember…[Am I dead?] "Traverse Town" is it…? Where is such a place as that? I cannot even recall how it is I came to be here. Are you certain someone's not pulling a cruel prank on me? I assure you I won't take kindly to being toyed with. Surely I cannot have done this myself by mistake. As much as I appreciate a good joke, this isn't a laughing matter.

[Slight exhaustion reflects in his words, though he keeps his gaze slightly off from the small communicator. There's a serious urgency to what he says as well. In fact, he was nothing but dreadfully confused. He knew nothing of inter-dimensional travel so how was he to know where he was? Not that he'd completely poo poo the idea,—indeed, he's far from unfamiliar with the supernatural—but…How could he be anything but dead? Perhaps the strain on his mind after his defeat by Yugi had been far too great…And yet, despite the approach from the strange creature with the red bobble on its head and its insistence on giving him a tour, he wasn't sure anymore. Maybe this was a dream. That at least would be simpler than the reality of the matter. Cyndia…His thoughts instantly turned to her, and to Duelist Kingdom. What had become of it all? Was this his Judgment? His Punishment for what had transpired? Or was it something else entirely?]

Maybe someone will care to direct me…? I'm afraid this is all very confusing. I am willing to negotiate, should that be necessary.

[Video / Underworld Action ]

Ok, I get it, I do, went a little too far with the ‘taking over worlds’ thing…

[At first one can only hear Hades voice and see the dark and gloomy interior of the Underworld. ]

So Dante, come on, let’s talk this over a bit.

[There is a clank of chain as whomever is using the recording device tries to figure out how to move the camera. There is even a brief glimpse of an eyeball as the creature looks inside the lens to see if the thing is working. ]

We’re both reasonable people here, well, not people per se but… we can work this out. What do you want? There must be something… help finding some one, success in your business… Oh! A new jacket?

[And there the camera finally focuses on Hades who appears to have been chained to his throne in the Underworld. Now for those who know their Greek mythology they should recognize the golden chains that even a God can’t break. Dante and his team successfully managed to put Hades out of commission for a while. ]

Come on, let’s talk, what do you say?

Now that things have settled down, I owe you all an explanation of my actions regarding the siege at Disney Castle.

[Normally Ciel wouldn’t have felt the need for something like this however since his plans had been more of a public nature it was necessary. He stood before the camera quite confidently]

Neither me nor my butler had any true sympathies for either Hades or Icy. [He paused for a moment to let that sink in] .. It was simply a ploy to convince those two of our “loyalty” and a way to infiltrate their otherwise heavily guarded stronghold.

I do realize that our methods could have possibly jeopardized your own endeavors to overtake the enemy, however we did not inform them of anything they were not already expecting. The duo had been more prepared for a frontal assault than for someone working against them from the inside.

You are all free to believe as you like…. [He bowed his head for a moment before looking back at the camera] but I assure you, I, Ciel Phantomhive, would never do anything to bring disgrace to my own family name. [At least not publicly……. ]

I do apologize for the confusion but it would have been quite impossible to have revealed my plans to you earlier or your reactions would not have been authentic and it might have aroused suspicion.

[And with that the feed ended. No one needed to know what transpired after the duo had entered. The job was taken care of and that was enough. no one would be hearing from Icy any time soon…]
