I've become increasingly aware of how detrimentally boring this place can be. Surely there must be something in this blasted city to do. The least they could do is provide some bloody entertainment.

[Poor boy's read damn near every book in the manor.]So I was thinking. I've yet to discover a game I couldn't beat someone in. And there simply must

Y'like games, kid?

Hey, I've got a challenge for you, if you're up for it.

Oh?

You've perked my interests... What have you got?

An investigation of sorts. Kinda like detective? Think you can handle that?

... Y'know that curfew they've got going on in the city lately?

I should like to tell you that where I'm from, I'm known as the Queen's Watchdog. The Phantomhive family has been serving the position for years. I've solved many a grotesque crime.

Handle? I would think so. [He smirks, listening.]

Ah, yes, this curfew. What of it?

Awesome. Then I'm sure you've got this.

So I met this guy who says he knows what this curfew thing is all about. He was going to give me more information, but he wanted me to meet him after this curfew in the plaza tonight.

Well it doesn't take a detective to figure out how potentially unsafe that sounds -- so I bowed out. I think the guy was playing a game with me -- but I dunno, he sounded pretty serious.

I figure you might be interested, since you seem up for this sort of thing. Ah, but it's still possibly dangerous, so I understand if you're not up for the challenge.

[ yes, everything he just said is bullshit because he's curious about what happens to someone when they break curfew. ]

[Ciel listens intently. Hm. Curious.]

So why me? [He tilts his head off to the side slightly.] Surely sending a thirteen year old to investigate is an... interesting decision...

[And then a subtle smirk.]

I'll do it. [And just as a show of boyish ego, he'll take the piece of coral from his pocket and chuck it in the nearest wastebin for Adachi to see.]

You said you wanted a challenge, and it turns out you've done investigation work before. Heh, what luck!

[ that is...one impressive ego. slow claps, ciel. ]

Hope it cures your boredom a bit, kid.

Ah, and let me know how things turn out, alright?

[Were he any less a gentleman, he would bow.]

I'm certain it will.

I shall contact you after it's done to tell you about it.
