It had been a long time since the Kunlu Lau had visited the Trancy estate. It was a simple arrangement—delivering information to the duke in exchange for his opium den's protection (even at the hands of a mangy guard dog) Little Earls were all fine and well, but Phantomhive was outranked. Trancy offered more, in exchange for less. No little errands, no requests (demands) to cease activities, just relaying whispers on the wind, idle gossip, the like. All in all, this suited him just fine. Lau was ushered into the main parlor by a butler that reminded him a bit too much of Michaelis… He idled around, poking this, lifting that, and was almost startled into dropping an expensive-looking vase by a small cough. He turned around, and was met with the sight of a Goddess. Lily-pale hair, orchid lips, and such quiet eyes… For once, he was seeing the world as it could be, through her eyes…
A/N: Lau x Hannah? XD I… don't know where this came from. I was doing that random character pairings thing, and Lau x Hannah popped up, so I was like Okay, why the hell not? ^^ Heheh. So far, Alois has had something to do with all of these drabbles. I don't even like the kid! … Anyone wanna examine my subconscious for traces of psycho blondes?
