1 - After the thread with Sakura, chronologically?expiatriceJune 8 2011, 10:11:38 UTC
[Sakura's been made to go back to her room and rest. She wasn't able to do much back in the Church, but given her fragile mindset then and all the extra tension that surrounded them, being back "home" now should at least ease some of that, and having talked with her friend Rider would have helped.
...
Hopefully...
But at any rate, now that the chaos has finally settled, it's about time that she has a serious talk with Rider, whom she've already gathered to have been the chief person who looked after Sakura back in Fuyuki City.]
Rider, is that right? If you don't mind, would it be okay to talk for a bit? I could put on some tea too, if you'd like. [She asks courteously with a small smile. Odds are that Sakura probably mentioned her to Rider, so the other woman would likely have a good idea already of what this might be about.]
That would indeed be troublesome. But it will be up to Sakura to choose me as her servant. I want her to be at her best. If she feels I am the best for that purpose, then I will be at her side no questions asked.
And yes, she and I shared a mental link. But I feel that is something we maintain even without the title of master and servant. At least...I'd like to believe so.
A contract would make things easier, yes. But I want to be in top condition before I come to her as a servant again. Until then, I will be her companion and do what I can to be what she needs.
Honestly, I'd have trouble imagining her choosing any other. You two get along very well and are compatible too, no? And in a town like this, a contract can only work in both your advantage. But you are right; that's up to you both to decide whenever you're ready. I won't speak in her stead, and I'm sure that I'll hear from it, if you are to make one with her again. [She nods, smiling softly.]
It's comforting to hear that from someone who knows her well. I don't want to seem vain and make myself her only choice. But I believe she trusts me. I feel that's important in a relationship as master and servant.
I suppose this all remains to be seen. If Sakura feels I'd be more help to her in servant form, I'll strive to become one once more. Until then I can only live day to day and see where it takes me.
There's nothing vain about the fact that you two would most likely make the best choice, Rider. [There's a hint of teasing, she won't deny!] Until the time comes, then, and please don't be surprised if Matou-san shares my opinion, Rider!
[Is that a blush? I think it is. And maybe a bit of demure grinning.]
Ah, you think so? I appreciate the compliment, Ciel. I may not be the strongest servant, but I can promise to be the most loyal. And with her additional training, I'm sure we could be very solid together.
And well, to hear Sakura say so...would make me very happy indeed.

That makes sense, right?
