Nevermore Tasks 017

[Beautiful and soft is the blade as it caresses the flesh, slicing right through the onion. The poor unfortunate chicken -- now that he knows where they usually flock at-- provides an excellent dinner. While he wants to add carrots, his head will tilt, knowing Ciel doesn't approve of them and he decides instead to add something else. He's clicked on the video for a reason after all.]

Good evening Adstringendum. I trust you are well. Ah, if it is not impolite of me to ask... [He'll begin to say, making his tone of voice very soft and inviting] .. I was wondering if anyone had any spare mushrooms to spare. I'm more than willing to trade a few eggs, or perhaps some strawberry milk from our cow. The mushrooms would compliment the garlic and the chicken I'll soon roast.

[The knife moves quite fast, snapping down sharply into the cutting board. Ah, and he should ask Alphonse about his beloved feline. He hopes Kitty is watching.] Alphonse if you could. Mm, it has been a while since I've seen you. Your soft hair. The way your eyes shine. That soft cry when I touch you. So needy in my hands.

[Yes, he's talking about the cat, not Alphonse. Chop. Chop. Chop. Chop. Chop. Squish. Squelch. The blade stops and he glances down. Strange. When was he so careless. He glances down at his finger impassive at the now three pieces it is in.]

Ah, that hurt...

If you keep carrying on like this, people will figure out what you are.

[Fingers twitch on the edge of the knife and he lowers it, already back to cleaning it once more.

Concerning that. Nothing truely matters here and he wonders what the reaction would be. Would anyone be surprised or just a thousand or more I told you so's? Still, that is not his call to make, at least not by fault.]

Ah, yes. That.

[Private]

[al_truism]

I don't think Ciel would be really happy with that.

[He's clearly wandering now though he checks to make sure it's still private between them.]

No, he wouldn't be. I grow ever bored of such uselessness. [It's Alphonse and he doesn't wear false smiles around him unless he has to]

[Private]

[al_truism]

I don't think you're the only one, either.

[... when did they ever become like this?]

[He's staring away from the device towards Alphonse's direction. A soul so bright and yet so disorganized]

I truely wonder what I was up to. What point did I have in consuming a soul I could not keep. What was the point of playing with yours? Though I will not deny it might've been just because of that boredom.

[Private]

[al_truism]

I don't know. You never told me your reasons.

[He watches Alphonse on the screen then determines he's not lying to him]

Unfortunate. Curious still.
