The Trancy mansion was quiet, strangely quiet. Mostly because Alois had been sleeping in today. Though, the dark butler was a bit relieved from having the brat nagging commands at him. Hannah, was the most of all relieved. She seemed to take the most abuse from him.
Claude wandered around the hallways, bored. Though he had never shown his true boredom, on the inside, he maintained quite a bored state. He never really got out of the house that much, mostly due to the blonde boy crying and clinging to his legs.
He sighed thinking of him, all the times he cried and clung to him for protection. The poor thing was really a fool.
One thing he hated most about his master is that he wasn't very 'adventerous.'
He'd often just want to stay in the mansion and sulk, or be around his beloved spider demon. A fact that he resented.
The manor seemed a bit on a happy note today, though. Even with the servants on a rather bored note.
Claude stopped wandering mindlessly like a living corpse around the halls of the mansion to stop and pull back the curtains of the large window. Sunlight of a newly spring day poured in, the light reflecting from his golden orbs.
For once, he was actually eager to get out. Itching to feel the fresh spring air on his face, something he has not felt in a long time. He was growing a bit restless and annoyed staying cooped up in the mansion. Yes, he was a demon, used to these conditions in hell, used to staying in one place for a very long time, but for once, he wanted a change.
"Hannah, has the master had anything planned for today?" His cool voice asked, not turning his head from the window.
She heard his voice from the hall up the staircase, climbing up a few steps she replied. "No, I don't think so. Dama-sama said he was planning on relaxing today- why?"
"I think I may take today upon myself to leave the mansion for the day."
"Really? That's unlike you, Claude."
He didn't reply, but simply began to walk down the stairs passed her.
"Is something the matter?"
"No. I'm simply unamused." He said, with a gesture of his hand.
"Unamused?"
"Yes."
She shook her head. "What will dama-sama say when he wakes up, and realises you are not here? You know how anxious he gets."
"I've left before and he was fine. Just tell him I left to run some errands. I'll be back."
She sighed and nodded. A bit irritated that he wouldn't listen to her, though, she knew she could not control his actions. Even she was growing tired of this dreary mansion. Lately it seems bland and sucked dry of life and laughter. Not neccissarily depressing, yet, not happy. Though, if dama-sama wakes up and starts panicking that Claude is gone, the mansion's well being will deffinetly turn on a sour note.
"I heard the circus is in town if you are interested."
"I'm not interested in mere freakshows." He huffed, leaving the mansion, closing the door audibly.
