on 3 continuously active years;

[expiatrice]

...Goodness. This is already embarrassing enough as is, you know. I'm very flattered that you consider today such an important date, and three whole years certainly is a long period of time, but you really don't have to be so worked up because of just that. Your friends must tire of your ramblings too, and you do realize what this means when I'm the one who tells you that? [...Right, some of us ARE aware of our expositioning tendencies...] So please, calm down and focus on what we already have on our plate. Things are quite hectic in that town, we've both still got a lot of planning to do and see through.

That said, I am grateful for everything. It's been quite the experience, going from one terrible town to an even worse one, haha. [It sounds better when you put it lightly...] There has been so many unanticipated changes, and while I think it's too forward of you to claim "it was all for the better", I suppose I can't quite deny it's been some of the most fun times I've had, even considering my stay in Japan spent with Tohno-kun and his friends. I do wonder sometimes how they're doing now, but things certainly are fine the way they are. Another 'me' must be actively watching over them somewhere, right? These alternate universes and differing dimensions can be quite practical too, when you think about it. Knowing that does put me at ease, but I can't say I care to know how the Second Magic works, nonetheless.

Aha, but let's cut it short here. We have lots of important things ["and people"] to get back to, this is just a small nod of acknowledgement towards all the time we've spent together. Well then, I'll look forward to the future with you too, miss mun. God knows where we may be this time next year, hm?

[consider it done...

hey charles

remember the first time she srs faced at you

REMEMBER]

Oh, I wasn't aware. Would you both like to keep it as a surprise? You're a smart boy though, even if you shouldn't be so rude to your mundane. The process of elimination itself ought to be easy to rationalize, nonetheless.

[encored]

[AND ON THIS DAY THE RECKONING BEGAN

no though why would he want to remember that go away don't ruin THE MOMENT!!!1]

You say that as though the process of elimination could be used against someone as irrational as you. Do you not recall how suspicious I was when you gave me that box of chocolates? [his reaction to everything Ciel gives him that isn't in plain view immediately tbh...] Anyway, I'd like it to be a surprise and that's what matters.

[expiatrice]

[where's the organ music to go with it

SO HE COULD PROPERLY GAUGE WHAT IT REALLY MEANS WHEN CIEL DOESN'T SMILE FOR A WEEK?? sheesh fine]

I'm perfectly rational, it's your short temper and senselessly massive paranoia that are irrational things. It's been over a year and a half since, Charles, plus you shouldn't be furious at me anymore once it finally reaches you. ...Ah, I won't say anything in that case, but on a scale of 0 to 10 with 10 being the most, how much would you still want to kill me the next time we really meet?

[perfectly normal questions to ask casually, tbh]

[encored]

[here....

he'll just go back to pretending he doesn't know the meaning then!! more important things to be miffed about like such wrongful accusations. senselessly massive paranoia and short temper, gosh]

I want to bump it to a five just for hearing such a moronic question but in all honesty, I'd peg it a one. [sighs like this is a terrible thing...] I have to save the lion's share of my murderous intent for Kite, sadly.

[expiatrice]

[thank u i knew i could always count on you

ahaha... she missed this =3= his snappish tsun is going to have her cup a cheek with one hand and chuckle daintily, perfectly natural response surely]

Aha, you've really grown~ There's a really big line of angry mob waiting for that doctor though, isn't there? Are you sure you don't want to save your strength for something more productive?

[killing isn't productive ok.

so what if this is sort of hypocritical.]

[encored]

[anytime captain

what kind of natural response is that though wow AND WHAT KIND OF HYPOCRISY IS THAT!!]

There isn't anything more productive than grinding his face to the bone against the pavement. I'll wait my turn if I must but I'll be vying for a spot close to the front.

[expiatrice]

[true accomplice lyfe

normal ones??]

He'll just regenerate, plus staying by the side of the people you care about should definitely have priority over that. [small sigh!] Although I suppose it would be bad to ask for too much, patience was never really your suit.

[encored]

[impatient enough to not bother unwrapping candy: a life]

I don't think it's asking for too much in this case. It's simply unreasonable. How could you expect me to pass up a chance like that if one happened to be offered?

[expiatrice]

["because it's not going to change anything whether you give him a kick or not"

but ciel won't ask for the impossible...

so with a small sigh! and the tone you'd expect of someone going "okay tommy, yes you MAY have an extra candy, but no more!!"]

Just don't take too long, okay?

[encored]

[he will take this as a small victory...]

I'll try not to. He doesn't deserve anything extravagant, anyway, so I'd truly just enjoy crushing his head like a melon and calling it a day.

[expiatrice]

[he can have it he deserved it after everything...]

Wouldn't that dirty your shoes?

[#priorities]

[encored]

[look ma he's earning his own victories by himself and everything!!]

It would, but thankfully I have quite a few pairs saved up now.

[expiatrice]

...

The first floor of the apartment complex was trashed during your absence, by the way. Unless that magically fixes itself...

[just saiyan.]

[encored]

[THAT COMPLETELY SLIPPED HIS MIND.]

God, it had better fix itself. If I have to make all those trips North again lugging back more futons and coffee tables, I'm going to have to kill Kite twice. [wrong npc to be mad at.....]

[expiatrice]

Jonas is the one who got everyone to start bombing the foundations.

...

To reach Stephan so the rescue group could come to help the rest of you...

[she is being all shades of helpful here]

[encored]

I know that, but I dislike Kite the most. [MATURE LOGIC.]

Why didn't you stop those idiots from going at it in such a completely nonsensical, over the top way? God, you lot can't even do that much correctly. And while I'm marking off my list of complaints, this wait time is unacceptable.

1/2

[expiatrice]

I wonder who doesn't...

2/2

[expiatrice]

What other ways were there? A lot of people were desperate, even Cain ruined his hands trying to dig through bare dirt. Some think of Jonas as an ally too, anyone trying to stop them wouldn't have been met with a good reception. As for the time... Hmm, I think that's out of our hands too.

[getting too meta there, even on the other side of the 4th wall...]

[encored]

It's almost impressive, how much distaste he's managed to garner for himself in such a short time frame. [shakes his head...

and then waves a hand because he's STILL GRUMPY ABOUT THE WAIT even if meta rockets are flying off left and right now.] Whatever. As long as it doesn't happen again - or at least not for some time. I'm old, I don't have the patience for these kind of things anymore.

[expiatrice]

Really? I think it's rather predictable, given the sort of things he's done. [who sounds neutral...]

Would you really like a cane? For your birthday, perhaps?

[encored]

[the one who wasn't turned into a thing they have a phobia of!!!!]

By your opinion. But no, I wouldn't. What I'd like for my birthday is to not be in a place like Mayfield or Haven or Hunters Game, to be perfectly frank.

[expiatrice]

[what if you don't have a phobia of anything...

other than maybe some old decrepit insane vampire possessing your body and tearing everyone you love a new one

not QUITE like space rabies, but somewhere on that line]

Picky, picky... But how else would I be able to celebrate it with you, in that case?

[encored]

[space rabies and roa can get honorable mentions]

I don't want a celebration so it works well enough for me. I'm a little grateful that Haven doesn't offer any opportunity for something like that, actually. [now watch him whine about the lack of parties like two weeks from today]

[expiatrice]

[ty for ur kind consideration]

Now now, don't say things like that. I've been keeping strict track of the days since my arrival last year, I'll have you know. I might've missed my chance back in Mayfield because things started to get really hectic during mid November, but I have absolutely no intention of letting that happen again a second time. That's a promise~!

[he won't get a chance to whine

so

n_n]

[encored]

[ciel not only Knows Things but she thinks of everything GEEZ]

That's stupid and pointless. God even knows what month it is there, I haven't even bothered keeping track of the days. You could just pick any random one, call it a birthday and there would be nothing more to it.
