Video † The butler, educating

[thebutler_epic]

Good afternoon.

[Sebastian smiled, his starched white sleeves rolled up to his elbow. He's standing inside the tidy kitchen in the mansion, apparently preparing tea. The tea service is ready to be sent out, but directly in front of the view of the Dreamberry there is a stack of apples. Sebastian gestures to these]

Firstly, I would like to properly

[he looks vaguely amused.]

Giving up recipes through the Dreamberry, then? Seems someone's a bit bored. Or simply cares too much for his job.

[thebutler_epic]

More the latter, I'm sure. I'm too busy to be bored.

[mudbloodhater]

Too busy with the butlering, then. Sounds like you keep a bloody bossy master. [reminds him of Dobby. Hm.]

[thebutler_epic]

[Chuckle] Are you acquainted with the Earl?

[mudbloodhater]

[he stares up and away from the screen thoughtfully.]

Not that I can recall.

[thebutler_epic]

Ah, well. I suppose even if you had met, he would have no memory of it. He doesn't have any recollection of having been here before.

[mudbloodhater]

Hm. I suppose there are worse things to forget, if he's going to go back and forth.

Though that may yet mean you've more experience with how to do so, hm?

[thebutler_epic]

[A thoughtful hum. But Sebastian does not reply outright, diligently cleaning his mess]

You must excuse me. I have a great deal to manage, now my young Master has returned. My days were far more predictable when my sole responsibility was maintaining the property.

[mudbloodhater]

When he wasn't around, I take it? How long was that for? [he's nosy. And probably not going to stop.]

[thebutler_epic]

A few weeks passed in between his departure and his return.

[mudbloodhater]

Fascinating. Anything else to add to that, or are you going to let it remain a mystery?

[thebutler_epic]

Might I inquire as to your interest?

[mudbloodhater]

I've been here over a year without finding out anything. Call it morbid curiosity.

[thebutler_epic]

You should call on my young Master one afternoon. I'll prepare tea.

The earl is a curious mind as well.

[mudbloodhater]

Hm. Perhaps I will. I'll see if I can't make some room in my busy schedule.

[thebutler_epic]

Oh, dear. You must be quite overwhelmed.
