3rd Letter

[exactingrevenge]

[The distant rumbling sounds were disconcerting, but considering the other recent events they were not all that surprising. All the information seemed to indicate the dairy as being the origin on the disturbance. The milkman himself being one of the more dubious characters in the city. For now, Ciel is not planning on going to the dairy himself,

[Yuki is looking through the books, trying to find something useful when she accidentally bumps into him] Oh! I'm sorry. [bow]

[exactingrevenge]

[This was only the 4th of 5th row of books Ciel had been examining. He'd lost count, not that it mattered. They were all primarily useless tomes. When Yuki bumped into him he dropped the book currently in his hand. It was some sort of sewing book.]

Ng--

[Given that the were in a library he kept his exclamation to a minimum]

Don't concern yourself about it.. but Do, try to be more careful Miss...?

[isur2ndprincess]

I'm sorry, I was lost in thought. [she reaches to pick up the book he dropped] Are you trying to learn to sew?

[exactingrevenge]

[Ciel involuntarily drew back when she asked such a question wondering whatever had prompted it. Spying the book in her hand his cheeks turned a slight tinge of color. He took the book back from her and hastily placed it back on the shelf]

No-- I'm not.

[Deep breath]

Whom might you be?

[isur2ndprincess]

Sewing is a very useful skill to have, you shouldn't be ashamed. [smile!]

Oh, I'm being rude. My name is Yuki Yagizawa.

[exactingrevenge]

But-- I'm really not trying to learn how to sew...

[It had just been the next book on the shelf and even if she told him not to be ashamed he couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed anyway]

So you're Japanese then? [His former head butler was also of Japanese descent] I'm Ciel Phantomhive. [Not bothering with the Mayfield surname]

[isur2ndprincess]

Yes, I'm Japanese. [another smile, though it may be a bit nervous-looking] Ciel is a pretty name.

[exactingrevenge]

I'm from England myself. [Making small talk was always a bit of a chore.] Ah-- yes. Thank you. [Awkward]

How long have you been in Mayfield?

[isur2ndprincess]

I've never been to England before, and about a month I think. How about you?

[exactingrevenge]

You think? You're already starting to lose track? [The town did seem to make it difficult to keep up with the days as they passed by] Almost 2 months now.

[isur2ndprincess]

Well, I was here and then a lot of time passed that I don't remember and then I woke up here again... so I'm not sure how long it's been.

[exactingrevenge]

[Hmm-- sounds like she was either droned or this is her second time being drug here]

It's alright. The duration isn't a crucial piece of information.
