Sebastian, do you know a boy by the name of Alois Trancy? He claims that I injured him and that he is my enemy. I do not recall him in the least.

I trust that both of you have survived this latest curse? I heard a rumor that people might lose their heads. That sounds quite unpleasant.

I have my own troubles, you kno -----

private

[mad_here]

...let me guess: you need help with the curse today.

private

[queens_guarddog]

What are your troubles?

[A pause.]

I don't need help.

private

[mad_here]

I'm not putting that kind of weight on a kid's shoulders.

[trolloboros]

Heads being taking off tend to be irritating. Unless you're talking about something else in which case I can only guess what it is that you actually mean.

[queens_guarddog]

Everything is rather irritating.

[trolloboros]

Looks like you'll need to find someway to loosen up, Ciel.

[queens_guarddog]

If only I could.

[misterblackbird]

As far as I know, we're all quite all right. And it's far from a rumour: I've seen such a thing on the Network more than once already.

Are you all right?

[Private]

[queens_guarddog]

Indeed? Disgusting.

Other than aggravated, I'm well.

[Private]

[misterblackbird]

It is, rather. It's a gruesome way to kill and to die. But it seems less bloody than usual--here, at least, and today.

I'm glad to hear that.

[Private]

[queens_guarddog]

That must be the curse. If someone was beheaded naturally, there would be a lot of blood.

[underage]

Are you talking about me?

[queens_guarddog]

Partially. [Why lie?]

[underage]

Ah~ I'm on Ciel's mind.

I wonder what would happen if someone cut your head off. Would you forget me all over again?

[queens_guarddog]

I didn't know you to begin with! I don't see how -

[He remembers to breathe.]

Are you threatening me?

[sinandservitude]

I have never heard of the name, Young Master. Perhaps he is a commoner you unknowingly harmed?

private to sebastian | voice

[queens_guarddog]

He speaks properly. I do not think he is a commoner.

[A pause.]

He referenced someone named Claude.

private to ciel | voice

[sinandservitude]

Hmm.

[A pause from him as well.]

I have not heard that name either.

[queens_guarddog]

I am wondering how he knows you are a demon.
