video; 002. ♞ That butler, unscheduled holiday

[xthecorvus]

One can't help but be reminded of Sleeping Beauty.

[ This is said rather thoughtfully as the butler seems to be considering something. After all, for him to come to the network? It must be a pretty damn big deal to begin with. The SFC's on the table as he's ]

If I may inquire, Vatheon. How common are these... sleeping spells? I've fallen into one rather recently and much to my surprise, so has my young master. No attempt to wake him seems to come to fruition which has led me to wonder if this is something due to the city entirely.

[ And a sigh as he dusts his hands. ]

I suppose this means I have a bit of free time on my hands.

[ Another frown comes to his brow however. Because the concept of a day off is rather novel to him, truth be told. Now that he doesn't have to prepare any meals or balance any books. ]

What indeed could one do on a day off?

[Have a smile back, Sebastian. It slowly turns into a small almost line-faced smirk.]

Did you have someone kiss you to wake up?

[ V I D E O ]

[xthecorvus]

How could you suggest such a thing, truly?

[ Still smiling but it's the sort of smile he gives the staff back home. Because there's someone he's sure would have wanted to kiss him awake and the very idea is nauseating. ]

I woke up on my own accord, thank you very much.

[ V I D E O ]

[cheapshinigami]

I apologize if I offended you. [Bows. He doesn't know about Grell's wish to kiss Sebastian.]

It's good to know people can wake up without other's assistance. As for what to do with your day off... I had trouble with that when I first arrived...

[ V I D E O ]

[xthecorvus]

None taken whatsoever.

[ Best it stay that way. ]

It seems almost like the kind of sleep one would normally have at night... save for the fact it seems to go on for more than a single evening. But as for your arrival... you appear to be the sort to whom free time is a rarity as well.

[ V I D E O ]

[cheapshinigami]

[Well, he sort of does. He just doesn't know Grell means Sebastian.]

Indeed, our office is always swamped with work. So many cases to solve on such a tight budget... [Sighs. It also doesn't help that Tsuzuki is quite accident prone.]

[ V I D E O ]

[xthecorvus]

[ If demons had nightmares, well... ]

I can imagine that can equate to quite the hassle. Vatheon has presented itself as a worthwhile vacation then, suffice to say?

[ V I D E O ]

[cheapshinigami]

[He has no idea what it's like trying to cover the reconstruction of a library with their budget. Twice.]

Indeed, I'm quite pleased in that aspect. I must admit after a while it got boring. I found myself a job here. Fortunately the working conditions are much better, and I don't need to get paid. [But he would not say no if he were offered a salary, mind you.]

[ V I D E O ]

[xthecorvus]

Seeing as my master is in residence, I find myself rather preoccupied much the same way I was in our home world.

[ He's now scanning the shelves behind him a moment though. ]

However, this is during normal circumstances. Finding another job to pass the time would simply be out of the question, I'm afraid.

[ V I D E O ]

[cheapshinigami]

[Smiles at that.] Yes, it must not be very different, I suppose.

Maybe you could simply take some time for yourself in this case.

[ V I D E O ]

[xthecorvus]

Perhaps. I shall most certainly consider it.

[ Yeah, okay. That... he might need that after the city's last shenanigans. ]

[ V I D E O ]

[cheapshinigami]

With your master in the city, you probably don't have much of it.
