42 dreams - Action

[dreamsofnoah]

[A dark, vast cavern of nothingness, no walls visible in any direction.

The very centre of it is illuminated, not by candles for once, but by an unseen source of light. A gentle creaking fills the space as an old rocking chair moves gently backwards and forwards. Seated in the chair is a large man, glasses obscuring his eyes and his mouth frozen in a gigantic grin.

And in his lap a little girl with dark gray skin and golden eyes, crosses marking her forehead. She smiles as the chair continues rocking the two of them, and over the creaking a soft melody can be heard, Road humming the tune in time to the movements of the chair.]


((ooc: open for anyone to interact (the Earl won't be speaking to anyone). I'll treat each thread as a separate incident. She's also perfectly aware that she's currently inside a dream.))

_{[Sob. Why must you make this harder than it is?]}

There is a certain truth in dreams, of course. And desire. It is only human.

[dreamsofnoah]

[Because that makes it more fun?]

You say that like you know it very well.

_{[Stop picking on your mother's boyfriend. She would get on so well with the young master.]}

I know enough. I could hardly be a servant of the Earl Phantomhive if I didn't.

[dreamsofnoah]

[She infuriated him horribly, actually.]

Hmm~. And that means a lot to you, doesn't it?

_{[The young master was never good around young ladies. He will have to educate him properly.]}

My body and soul belong to my master. I shall be his loyal servant until the day he dies.

[dreamsofnoah]

[Road would be more than willing to help with that.]

Oh~, he's lucky to have someone so devoted to him.

_{[Then they shall start once again with a waltz~]}

The young master is an ambitious one. He made me an offer I could not refuse.

[dreamsofnoah]

[Road will SO try to lead.]

Hmm~. [Curious, curious.] An offer that couldn't be refused to someone who doesn't dream. Ciel is definitely interesting~.

_{[Well Sebastian does enjoy a good laugh at the master's expense.]}

I suppose 'interesting' is one way of putting it.

_{[Are you on to him, Miss Road? Unless you already know. He blames Grell in that case.]}

[dreamsofnoah]

For a human boy~, he is.

[Let's just say that knowing Grell is a death god, and that the last time he was here Sebastian beat him - Road should know how bad those injuries were since she got to play nurse - she's come to her own conclusions about the butler.]

[trulydemonic.livejournal.com]

It seems interesting people are not few and far between here.

_{[Here's looking at you, kid. What can he say? He's just one hell of a butler.]}

[dreamsofnoah]

That's~ true. It stops it from being boring at least.

[Innocent smile. Just like Road's only a sweet little girl.]
