[Hey. Vatheon. Have an irritated Ciel glance. He's back at the coral, looking grumpy as ever.]
[Thanks for that second bath; now he's dripping wet.]
Would someone mind bringing me a towel...? It would seem this wretched place decided to send me through once more.
[Oh wait. He seems to see something odd, because he looks away for a moment and

And hear that strange sizzling noise...? Look around, and you'll notice it's two snakes... on Snake's shoulders.
Yes, he's indeed there, looking surprised and relieved as he runs over, towel and groceries in hand. The dinosaurs seem wary at the sound; bad experiences?]

[Ciel takes the towel, wrapping it over his shoulders.]
Good Lord, what the bloody Hell happened, Snake? Last I recall, this place was not... infested with giant reptiles!

[He pauses as Goethe and Wilde snap out at some of the creatures in warning.]
People here seem to be taking their appearance... surprisingly well notes Keates.

[Seeing the snakes' action, Ciel is becoming wary.]
We should return to the manor. And stay there.

I'll escort you there as quickly as I can, Earl. [With the snakes serving as sufficient warning for most of the dinosaurs, Snake begins the journey home.]

I apologize for my absence...
... I remember the circus. [Oh, twinge of anger a moment there.] And I recall making you my footman.

[The sudden admission of memory makes Snake pause and stare.]
You do?

[The more pressing matter, however, would be that filled memory gap.]
Yes, it... it was strange. It's like I'd gone back to England, in a slight variation from what I remember before...
[ERR WAIT. THERE ARE STILL GIANT DINOS AROUND.]
The details aren't important for the moment. Come, let us get to the manor...

Without another word, Snake hastily escorts Ciel back to the mansion and sends his companions out into the estate to check and doublecheck everything is how they left it.]

[Surely Snake had questions; of that he knew... It would... be in their bst interest to answer them... When satisfied with his appearance. Ciel makes his way back into the main living area of the manor, seeking him out.]
So these... dinosaurs just showed up, did they?
Reply
[It's not a long search; Snake didn't move far from where he stopped inside. A few of his friends have already returned, so far giving nothing but good news.]
It is unknown from where. We have tried communicating with them says Webster, but they are not very intelligent.

[Not that he'd be investigating... Even if Sebastian was there, Ciel would be hard pressed to investigate such... atrocities.]
Before you showed up, a woman named Integra informed me that this place had... curses, of the sorts. I'm guessing this might be one of them.
[Mrr, taking a seat in this comfortable arm chair.]
... And surely you have questions you would like answered...

What do you remember this time? Did this Miss Integra tell you of this?
[And that is when a certain starfish device is retrieved from a table, where Snake has left it there ever since he came to Vatheon.]
...Wilde and Emily, respectively.

I recall everything from when I was here... But back in our own world? It's... foggy. Like I'm remembering two separate realities... But I recall the circus, the events after, you showing up in the manor...
... Where... exactly were you before coming here?
[A glance to the device.]
Ah. That thing... It's... more trouble than it's worth, however, is somewhat useful... Has anyone gone over the basics of it?
