[The image starts with a jolt, and a bit of a rattle. Ciel has just tossed his Dreamberry onto a nearby table, turning it on without his knowledge. He's never been fond of the thing, so it' not surprising he treats it so roughly. He's secretly hoping to break it, probably.

And then he half throws himself into a chair, crossing one knee over the other, and slumping in a most undignified manner. With the hot summer weather, he's taken to staying inside more and more, where the climate can be somewhat controlled. On this afternoon, his hair is a bit messier than usual, and he looks unhappy, though that's nothing new. He reaches for the book on the small table beside his chair, and leafs through the pages. He seems to be reading for a while... but then just huffs, shuts the book, and tosses it back where he found it.

Is he... bored?

She dies at the end, by the way. Such a cruel twist of fate.

[he startles from the chair, looking around, before his eyes settle on the phone across the room. Figures. He scowls.]

You don't even know what I was reading, do you? [he pushes himself out of the chair, walking over to retrieve the Dreamberry]

Hmmmm, death is usually the answer, so I figured I had a good shot, regardless of the title. [ An innocent smirk. Oh hello. He hasn't actually seen your face on the network before. Rather, hasn't bothered to investigate into it. ]

[And he's an interesting looking one -- maybe 13 years old, almost girly looking, Wearing some very old-fashioned clothes. and the eyepatch is hard to ignore, too.]

'Death is usually the answer', huh? [why does that sound ironic when he says it?] Unfortunately, I haven't yet found many books here that I haven't already read.

My, you must have a lot of time on your hands. [ A thoughtful hum, and now he's going to toss out random titles at you, Ciel. Be prepared...! Once he's done, however... ]

Do you find it hard to read with only one working eye?

[Okay, he might admit, he hasn't heard of most of those.]

No. I'm used to it.

A strange thing to be used to, but to each his own.

[ And evading personal boundaries and politeness ]

A freak accident?
