          ❝   Wi ~ lli ~ am ~ !   ❤   ❞   There could not possibly be more pep in her step this morning! Gleeful, the clack of high heels echoes in the wake of her sprint, a bright flash of scarlet against the dull, dreary backdrop of a foggy London dawn.           ❝   Oh, I’m  so excited !  When was the last time that you and I were sent out on assignment together, hm ?  Let’s make this a trip to remember, shall we ~ ?   ❤   ❞

"Come'ta try and collect me again aye?"

There's humor in his eyes as he turns on heel, facing the brunette. Undertaker couldn't handle himself, the smallest of a giggle slipping past his upturned lips. Clawed hand moves to his mouth as if to attempt to stifle himself. "Come now, How about we have a nice chit chat instead. I got a fresh batch of cookies just outta the oven."

Now that’s just bullying. I’m calling the police.

@pareidae​ has entered the Circus!

“My, tha’ sure was a busy night last night, wasn’t it? I think we were sold out!” Doll said, excitedly to the person next to her. “It didn’t tire ya out too bad, though, did it?”

“Oh, do please sit, Mister Agni.” Claudia said after he had set the tray down. “Looking up at you will only give me a crick in the neck, and I feel like you’ve been on your feet far too often as of late.” She gently admonished the taller, gesturing to the empty seat across from her.

To his statement, she nodded. There was equally as much good in the world as there were bad. The lone, ruby earring which glittered on her right earlobe was a reminder of such goodness, and she couldn’t help but smile a bit as she took a small sip of tea. Far, far too many good had been snuffed out, though.

“You’re right, all the same.” A small, wistful sigh from the former Countess’ lips. “Far too easy to remember the bad. But there are spots of good out there. Little rays of sunlight in an otherwise dark forest.” She had seen him, the servant and the Indian prince. How they interacted with each other, how they interacted with the little pup of hers. A ray of light in that darkness that Ciel had inherited from her and Vincent. 

Blue eyes flickered up to Agni, her smile hidden by the teacup, “For what it’s worth, I think you do a marvelous job looking after your own little ray of light.”
