Good evening

Oh, Sebby~!! This is absolutely wonderful!!!

[He's so excited]

[thebutler_epic]

[Is apparently less enthused, but he offers Grell a stiff nod. The invitation clearly said all residents of Somarium were invited. Regrettably, that designation would still include Grell Sutcliff]

I have taken great care. [Warning: do not ruin it]

[chainsawofdeath]

I can't wait to come~ And the food you're serving!!! I can feed you chocolate covered strawberries~ It would be very romantic!!!

[thebutler_epic]

[Ugh. And there went his appetite, if he ever had one for dessert foods - which he really doesn't]

I doubt that will be possible. I will be working.

It is my role to serve.

[spectaculaire]

What a wonderful idea! Perhaps I will stop by~

When will it be held?

[thebutler_epic]

Tomorrow night, if that is suitable.

The ice sculpture will need to be redone, but no matter. There's time.

[spectaculaire]

That would be perfect~ I look forward to the occasion!

Ice sculpture?

[thebutler_epic]

[Smile]

I will be honored if you would attend. And my young Master, I am sure. [Little white lies; at least they make Earl Phantomhive look good. That's his job]

[scientize]

[Naomi recognizes you.]

You're Grell's boyfriend, aren't you? The one he goes on and on about?

[thebutler_epic]

[WTF? Surely she jests.

[No. She seems rather serious. This is mortifying. This is beyond belief. This cannot continue.

[In a flat, formal voice, Sebastian replies] I'm afraid you're mistaken. I have no association with Grell Sutcliff. He is a regrettable acquaintance, at best.

My apologies. I hope this does not discourage your decision to attend.

[scientize]

No association? [The woman raises an eyebrow at that.]

You're positive? Not just embarrassed to admit it? I distinctly remember him dreaming of you.

[thebutler_epic]

I'm quite sure. [His voice is even more firm and unamused now. Can you hear that? Sebastian is not happy]

I can't account for his dreams. I myself rarely sleep, but you can rest assured, I do so alone.

*Phantomhive ... Isn't that the kid!? The little bratty one? America is just amazed. I mean, look at this face.*

Wait, wait - that kid is your master?

[thebutler_epic]

Yes. [Smile] I am Sebastian, the Phantomhive butler.

Are you acquainted with the young Master?

[codenamehero]

Yeah, you can say that. We just spoke several times before.

*unfortunately* The name's America, by the way. United States of America.

[thebutler_epic]

Is it, now? [Amused]

Shall you be attending the evening party? It's tomorrow night.

Perhaps my young Master will make a more favorable impression.

[madcuriosity]

That sounds absolutely lovely Sebastian.

[thebutler_epic]

Thank you, Alice.

Will you be attending? The party will be held tomorrow night.

[madcuriosity]

I would like to very much. What is the attire Sebastian?

[thebutler_epic]

Dress comfortably, Alice. It's an informal affair and I wouldn't want you to overheat. It rather defeats the purpose.
