Video † The butler, watchful

[thebutler_epic]

My, my.

It would seem that my young master has been thoroughly exhausted by recent events and finds himself predisposed for the time being. [Translation: Ciel is in a sleep coma and Sebastian feels the need to share this with everyone. It doubles over as a polite cancellation of any prior engagements on the behalf of the earl]

I will gladly send any regards as soon as he is able to receive them.

In the interim, I've been working on preparing jam rolls. I'm told they are best enjoyed during colder weather months and I'm trying to perfect a recipe.

As a gesture of the Phantomhive hospitality, I would be honored if anyone would be willing and available for a taste. [Chuckles] I don't think we need to concern ourselves about disturbing the earl, nor shall we be interrupted.

[Smiles] Good day.

I suppose that can be arranged.

After all, it is for the Earl.

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

[Bows to the screen]

I would be deeply gratified.

[componere.livejournal.com]

May I inquire as to what this recipe entails?

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

Essentially water, flour, suet crust, sugar, and jam. I'm refining the particulars, since it's a very simple recipe.

[componere.livejournal.com]

A pastry of some sorts, then?

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

The suet crust is pastry, yes.

Perhaps it'll become more clear when you sample it.

[componere.livejournal.com]

I suppose that's true.

Would you mind if I came over a bit earlier than that? I've always wondered what a home of an English Earl looked like. [ slight smirk ]

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

If you like.

You are most welcome, Sir.

[componere.livejournal.com]

Expect me shortly, then. Espoir? Or within the city's limits?

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

Ciel's asleep again? Goodness, he's more asleep than awake sometimes!

Ah but, Sebastian, it's nice to see you.

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

[Chuckles] So it would seem.

Good morning, Alice.

Mansion 4, in Espoir.

[Finnian looks a little too tired for words right now.]

Since the young master is asleep, does that mean I still have work to do?

[flowergleam.livejournal.com]

Ooh, you're baking?

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

[And Sebastian is forced to rethink the part about being free from interruption]

Of course.

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

Yes, madame.

[Bows] I am Sebastian, the Phantomhive butler.

[He yawns slightly, making sure that his mouth is covered.]

Is there anything I need to do right now, because I can't remember what I was meant to do before the incident, I do remember I had something.

[flowergleam.livejournal.com]

Oh, no... no need to do that... I'm Rapunzel.

If you like, I bake a lot—do you need any help?

[Stay calm, Sebastian. The staff is a trial on his patience, even in a dream world. Nothing has changed]

Have you stepped outside recently?

I believe there is a great deal to do.

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

Would you like to assist me?

[flowergleam.livejournal.com]

Oooh!! Can I?!

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

Of course.

I welcome the company. [Not sure if she is a capable kitchen hand - that remains to be seen. But Sebastian is still charming. Phantomhive hospitality at it best ♥ ]

[wantrobotgarden.livejournal.com]

I'm outside right now!

[He rarely spends his time inside if you give him a chance.]

Oh! Do you think that the garden needs tending to in some way?

video;

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

[So hesitant. But the young master sleeps. That leaves time to deal with anything unfortunate]

You might concern yourself with the fallen leaves strewn across the lawn.

[RAPUNZEL IS EXCITE, MAN. NEW BAKING FRIENDS.]

Whenever or wherever you like, I'd be glad to join you!
