[When Ciel appears on the screen, he look far from pleased -- his expression, noteably more sour than usual, is emphasized by the slightly unkempt hair that makes him look as though he's just rolled out of bed. The kid apparenlty is also incapable of dressing himself; his shirt is buttoned crooked, and his thin bow tie, is more of a knot than a bow.]

Has anyone seen my butler? He's mysteriously absent as of this morning, and I've been unable to contact him.

[Subject change, but his seems a perfect opportunity to divert the conversation] Why is it that you always invoke the name Merlin as if you were invoking a god?

[alphaophiuchi]

[he blinks.]

Because. [Draco actually has no answer for this. It's just something they've always done, so far as he knows.] I just do.

[dealwithademon.livejournal.com]

You've some affinity with Arthurian Legend? [A raised eyebrow, a look that clearly says 'oh really now?']

[alphaophiuchi]

[maybe that's where it comes from. Who knows. Draco doesn't. Nor does he care.]

Merlin was a great wizard. [he nods, deciding that that's it.]

[dealwithademon.livejournal.com]

Wizards. Really. [he crosses his arms] I wouldn't have taken you as one for fantasy, or the occult.

[alphaophiuchi]

Clearly you haven't been paying attention, then. [he crosses his arms back.]

I'm a wizard.

[Blink blink. Have a look of clearly genuine surprise -- which then melts into disbelief. Sure, Demons he can believe in, and grim reapers, maybe even Angels even if he's never seen one -- but Wizards? A Single eyebrow lifts]

Really.

[Video]

[alphaophiuchi]

Really. Why the tone of surprise? I don't strike you the type?

If by 'type', you mean the crazy sort, then no. But then, the England I come from, if you so much as insinuated you thought you had "magical powers", they'd throw you in the asylum.

Hence why most Muggles aren't precisely aware of us. They think we're all round the twist.

I assure you - and I am willing to prove it - that I'm not.

[dealwithademon.livejournal.com]

'Muggles'? [He says the word as if it tastes bad, and his facial expression is similarly sour]

But, if you're willing to prove it... [the implication seems to be 'then do it']

[Video]

[alphaophiuchi]

Non-magical lot. [sounds like how he says it.

[Draco casually draws his wand from his pocket, and gives merely a small flourish: Ciel is treated to a sight of swirling lights and sparkles puffing from the end of the wand.] If you want something more, you'll have to be specific. Though I suppose I can always levitate a book or eight for you.

[dealwithademon.livejournal.com]

That [he gestures vaguely] proves nothing, except that you're capable of magic tricks. I think I'll need to see this in person if I'm really going to believe you.

[Video]

[alphaophiuchi]

Then by all means. Shall we meet somewhere?

[pardon him while he just levitates books around the room and sends them to a better position on his bookcase. His room needed rearranging anyway.]

[Video]

[dealwithademon.livejournal.com]

[Just... going to ignore the floating books for now] wherever you please.

[Video]

[alphaophiuchi]

[but...look! There's a broom! It's sweeping by itself!]

Well, why don't you just come over here?

[Video]

[dealwithademon.livejournal.com]

[He could be dreaming all this, you know. Although it's not like his usual dreams, he COULD BE...] I'm afraid I don't actually know where it is you reside.

[Video]

[alphaophiuchi]

Oh, that's no problem. Just one of the smaller chapels. [insert directions here. 8|a]
