My name is Earl Ciel Phantomhive. I am apart of the dwindling nobility of England and I serve directly under Her Majesty, the Queen of England. As such, I expect for information to be provided to me promptly

[Oh. Finally. He was JUST starting to get bored. But he can't resist the temptation to toy with him just a tad. It's been months since he's seen his master, after all. He keeps the forge setting on Text, so as not to give away that the boy is speaking to his butler.]

1. Anatole.
2. No one rightly knows. The Door snatches souls at random and brings them to this dimension. It sounds fantastical, but it is the unfortunate truth. That is to say: no one specific abducted you, so there is no one to press charges against.

[Nice try, though. That's all he'll type for now. He's amused to see Ciel's reaction and even threw a hint in there. The boy does enjoy games.]

1.) I have never heard of such a place.
2.) How...unfortunate. I would have dearly loved to punish someone.

[This person is...intriguing. Whoever they are, they are quite informed. It couldn't hurt to ask some more questions.]

Then again, can I trust what you say? What are your credentials?

[Text]

[demon_andbutler]

Nor had I, until my arrival.

[A chuckle at the sentiment about punishment. He can't keep the charade up for long, but he'll continue with it for now.]

That is up to you. I am a servant; a butler, in fact. To a nobleman.

[What a coincidence!]

[queens_guarddog]

Then we are in the same predicament.

[Ciel tilts his head curiously, eyes widening imperceptibly. No. Would he?

He would.]

I hope you serve your nobleman well. If you were my butler, I would not appreciate you hiding your identity.

[yetsleeping]

I... don't think you've been kidnapped. Well, I know you haven't been. At least not in the normal, kidnappy kidnapping sense of kidnapping.

Which is to say you're definitely not home, but no one stole you anything like that.

[queens_guarddog]

My, aren't we verbose.

[yetsleeping]

I can be! But I don't think that was, necessarily.

Was it?

...oh, you know Sebastian!

[queens_guarddog]

...

Yes, I do. He is my manservant.

[chairyontop]

Kidnapped? I just walked right in.

[Voice] 1/2

[queens_guarddog]

...

[Voice]

[queens_guarddog]

Am I supposed to care?

[Voice]

[chairyontop]

Don't care if you do or don't. I just think it's pretty shitty that you were worth taking and I wasn't. I mean, hell, I'm more than kidnap-able! Appealing-wise. Not skill-wise; I could've fought them off. Would have. Would have fought them off, I mean.

It must've been 'cause they're scared of me. Don't blame them. Most folks with any sense of self-preservation should be.

why hello there, shota.

[immortal_shot]

I wish you luck pressing charges against a stone arch.

shota doesn't appreciate that name.

[queens_guarddog]

Am I to believe that a stone arch is responsible for bringing me here?

no? how about little robin?

[immortal_shot]

General consensus appears such. A bit young to be crossing dimensions, though, aren't we?

you're just being cruel now. 8|

[queens_guarddog]

I don't see what my age has to do with anything.

[circus_bones]

Hardships just seem to follow ya, don't they Smile?

Voice

[queens_guarddog]

[He knows that voice. It is a good thing that Joker can't see his face.]

I didn't expect to hear your voice.

Voice

[circus_bones]

[Joker sorta wishes that he could.]

Once upon a time I wouldn't have expected to see ya on my side of the hill either. But I knew ya'd be along soon enough after Black arrived.

Oh, yer not nobility here. And Her Majesty ain't here either.

Welcome to Anatole. Remember to smile.

Voice

[queens_guarddog]

[That threat doesn't go unnoticed.]

Such things should remain in the past, buried deep in the rubble of obvious mistakes, wouldn't you agree?
