Bored... Bored... and Ciel's wardrobe

Lizzy sat on Ciel's beautiful couch, just thinking silently to herself. She glanced at the back of her hand. The mark glittered in the light. She continued to look at how silver it was, how detailed the rose was...

She got up. "Sebastian!" She walked around the mansion, looking for Ciel's ex-butler. "Sebastian!" Lizzy frowned, as she walked around some more. She screamed to get Sebastian's attention, "Ciel's old demon butler?"

Lizzy sighed, continuing to walk around Ciel's mansion. She looked extremely bored... "Even Mey-Rin? Bard? FINNY!" She walked out to the kitchen and found Bard, "Hey!"

Bard looked at her. His face was full of concentration, "Yes?"

She studies his voice, it was very unlike the many voices of Britain. She noticed how much she never really payed any attention to Ciel's servants. They were so much more than people who just worked for him... She wondered where Bard came from... "Where... did you come from?" She tried to strike up a conversation. "I mean... you don't sound British... I'm not trying sound rude though!"

Bard smiled, "Aren't you a polite noble... I came from America and served in the war... Sebastian found me after my whole little base-camp died..." He stared into space as if he was deep in thought. "I was the only one to survive. I told the General that we simply wouldn't win with his battle-tactics... But we lost, all he because he was too stubborn to listen."

Lizzy looked at him, clearly interested, "Wow... That's so... sad..."

She eyed the counter. Bard looked at her, "Yeah well not everything in this world is cute and beautiful, little lady..."

He got back to what he was doing, which seemed to be washing dishes.

Lizzy put her chin on her hands and swung her legs under the counter. She was sitting on a bar-stool near the center co unter of the kitchen. It seemed to be a place where Sebastian or Bard would prepare meat or set things down to be used later on...


Later, Lizzy walked back out to the center walkway of the mansion, where she saw Sebastian. He seemed to be walking upstairs, "Hey, Sebastian!"

Sebastian turned around to face her, "Is something troubling you, Lady Elizabeth?"

"No... I'm bored..." Her face turned bright and happy. "Can we go shopping or something!"

Sebastian's eyes narrowed as he looked at the floor. "I suppose..." He looked towards the stairs. "I will go notify Ciel."

Lizzy stood at the bottom of the main stairs, as she waited for Sebastian to come back. She leaned on the banister. I wonder if Ciel will come! He could take a break from work and come along!

Sooner or later, Sebastian came back downstairs. "Ciel will be joining us, shortly."

Lizzy's head turned to the side, slightly, "Ciel..." It was hard for her to form her next words. She couldn't picture Ciel going out with her and shopping for unreasonable things -which is normally what Lizzy did with Paula on such occasions... "...is coming shopping... with us?"

"I suppose... He didn't seem too shocked when I told him we were leaving..."

Lady Elizabeth stood at the bottom of the stairs, until Sebastian and Lizzy hear a big thump from upstairs.


Sebastian rushed upstairs to see what happened. It seemed Ciel was trying to dress himself and get into his going out clothes. Sebastian looked at him with a grin, "Do you need help with that?"

He eyed his sock that was hanging halfway off his foot. Sebastian figured he must have tripped on it. Ciel glared at him, as he sat on the bed, "No, I don't need your help." He tried to pull his sock up the rest of the way, "I got this. I did this before..."

Sebastian cocked his head as he tried to yank the large sock up his leg. Sebastian grinned even further, "Ciel... ciel, ciel..." He walked over and grabbed hold of the black sock, beginning to pull it up his leg, "Can you do anything on your own..."

Ciel glared down at his butler, he was sure he had it right! "I was doing fine..."

Sebastian picked up his other sock and gently put it on his foot. He made it look so easy... the way it just slid up his ankle. Sebastian looked very annoyed, "I suppose I should've given you more freedom, but then again I was your butler." He grabbed Ciel's coat and buttoned it up, after he put it on him. The fact that Ciel put his shirt on correctly and buttoned it up made Sebastian feel a little better. "Now stay still." He grabbed Ciel's blue ribbon that would later be his bow-tie. He began to tie it. "I'm surprised you fought with your white lace shirt well enough to put in on..."

He pulled on the ribbon, making it go into place, perfectly. "I could've done that..."

Ciel continued to glared at the man who used to be his demon. Sebastian looked up at him, beginning to stand up from being on one knee, "Yes, but it would look mighty sloppy... I don't Lady Elizabeth wants to see you that way.."
