[Hello Somarium. It's been a while. Bear witness to a very put-together looking young boy, perhaps about 14-years-old, hair falling over one side of his face, barely obscuring the black eyepatch. He's wearing an appropriate autumn suit, obviously a bit dated (late 1800's) but still sharp looking. He clears his throat, then faces the camera squarely, and when he speaks, it's with a British accent.]

Good Afternoon, residents of Somarium. I wished to apologize for my absence, and any inconvenience my condition may have caused to anyone who wished to speak with me. Sebastian has assured me you were all seen to, so I hope there are no hard feelings. Should anyone wish, I would be happy to make accommodations for anyone who wishes to come calling.

[Then, he hold up an envelope, and does his best to look congenial] Edward, I received the note you left. If it's tea you wish, I'll have Sebastian make the arrangements.

Hello, I am Mary Weather Hargreaves. [mary has no idea who Alice is. She's just interested in why he was talking so formally. The eyepatch also caught her eye. Besides, hadn't he been talking to everyone?]

[ He had... though he had not assumed any little girls would have been interested. Especially ones he was not already acquainted with]

Good day, Mary. [ He's... really not sure what to do with her. He's not one to ask questions, or engage in unprompted conversation...]

[Mary likes murders and and haunted houses. there isn't anything that you should assume about her]

How did you come to need an eyepatch, Ciel? [okay then, mary was always willing to lead talks. Plus she was blunt.]

[And at this, the pleasant expression wavers. Leave it to children to pry into such personal matters. ]

You shouldn't ask about such things. It's rude. And besides, it's not something a little girl should hear about.

[she huffs]

That's just an excuse. If you don't want to speak of it then just say so.

It has nothing to do with your gender, you're just too young.

I am not!
