[For a boy with one eye, Ciel manages to look very sleep deprived, settled down at a small table, a cup of tea steaming to his right, a thick book in one hand, his communicator settled and recording in the other, his bad eye covered with a plain black patch.]

I really ought to just purchase my own copies after the fire. I'd really prefer not to be held responsible if these books had been damaged. Doctor Arthur really outdid himself since I last saw him though, these are greatly improved from his first novel. You can tell he'd gained confidence.

[He lets out a drawn out yawn and the takes a sip of the tea.]

I do apologize for the late hour. I thought I'd do some reading and I'm somewhat curious about the preferences some of you might have in terms of books. I've a great deal of time on my hands, even with managing Funtom, so it wouldn't hurt to have recommendations.

[A soft sigh.] I miss England.

[ Jay could appropriate someone who shoots their enemies in the face. It was his calling card back home.]

Yeah, you sound a lot like B. [ He couldn't help but grin at that, he couldn't stay in the same room as Bruce for long, and yet he found Ciel's company very enjoyable. Maybe it's because Ciel didn't seem bitter to him, and none of the bad blood was there.] And, hey if it makes you good at your post then it's perfect, right?

It is perfect. The better I am at my job, the better the chance of finding those who attacked my family.

[Outwardly, Ciel wasn't bitter. Inside though? The bitterness has had years to fester towards whoever had killed the people most important to him, who had targeted them on his birthday, the households guard down.]
