§ I&#39;m the Idiot to your Poetry §

Is this why the earl recommended not listening to you?

From:

Did he really tell you that? [Yeah, he still needs to get mad at Ciel for this.] Ciel has always loved taking people away from me so that I'd be left alone. [Claude liked Ciel better. Now Gilbert likes Ciel better too. Alois doesn't know if he can stand it.]

By this you mean my attempt at being kind and offering you cake, or my asking you to do your job and help me?

From:

I mean, destroying the earl's things when you don't have your way at once.

From:

I didn't do it on purpose [Yes he did.] Do I have to beg you to come and help me?

From:

That... won't be necessary.

From:

[ ...because he'll show up dutifully with the tiniest broom known to man and lizard, and a little trey, too. All in all, he's rather pleased with the sight. ]

You haven't come to harm yet. That's good.

From:

[That sounds so much like something Claude would say. Sitting on the table, Alois is kicking his legs mid-air excitedly.] That's because you came to save me. [He likes being in the same room as someone who moves and talks just like Claude would. He wants to be able to see Gilbert's eyes closely. They're incredibly similar to Claude's.] I'll be sure to reward you for your trouble. [This sounds like a promise.]

From:

[ ...and once he's out of this place, Gil will forward the nomination for Alice as a proper instructor on spoiled children with his own two hands. All that education is paying up.

Removing the shards is easy - glasses break in big pieces - but there is always some residue, and he'd rather take few chances. He's up soon enough, one hand out. ]

May I see your palms, please?

From:

[And Alois opens his hands for Gilbert immediately, palms up. He's pretty pleased. Being a spoiled child pays off, after all.]

From:

[ A cursory inspection is enough for now. No bleeding, nothing shining on the palm, no cuts. That's acceptable. ]

You were lucky.

[ He lets go. ]

Will that be all, sir?

From:

No wait! [He jumps off the table and goes over to the counter. He's already prepared a slice of cake on a plate. He brings it to Gilbert with a big smile on his face.] This is for having helped me. [Maybe he's standing a bit too close, but he's smiling cutely as he holds the plate our for him.]

From:

[ he's startled a little by the offering, but has the sense to take it with a nod of thanks; in the end, this poor young man went through the trouble. ]

Thank you. I'll... keep it for a friend who enjoys these things.

From:

You don't like cake? [Because if you are not eating it yourself just to spite him, he will be mad.]

From:

[ he laughs. ]

My friend likes it enough for two. It's become a habit to enjoy watching him eat it instead.

[ ...that it's improper for the help to dine with his employer's guest might also play into it. ]

From:

[]

Well done. Gilbert, you are welcome to have cake if you'd like -- it isn't impolite because I do not mind.

[]

From:

[Ignores Ciel's glare and smiles at Gilbert.] Thank you again for what you did for me.

From:

[...it occurs to him, distantly, that he's somehow ended up between two, overly short evils. ]

I'll...excuse myself, then.

From:

That is quite enough. This is not the Trancy Estate and you will not treat my servants in such a manner. Am I understood?

From:

[WHAT THE ACTUAL]

From:

What the fuck crawled up your bum and died? I don't understand what kind of fucking problem you have.

From:

I have a problem when you speak to Gilbert in such a spoilt way and treat him disrespectfully, when you break my things and act as though you own everything here. I am not afraid to put you into your place.

[]

What? Did you assume that me bringing you here is something I did out of kindness? Don't be stupid. You are not worth that much to me- this new body is all I have to thank you for and I will remember you for it. But that's all.

From:

[There are tears forming at the corners of Alois' eyes, but they're mostly tears of anger.]

And what have you brought me here for, then? To make fun of me? To watch me suffer?

[He's a bit intimidated by that dangerous glow, though. He takes a step back.]

I did not treat Gilbert disrespectfully. I was trying to be kind! But you won't allow that, right? You love taking people away from me. Claude liked you better, Gilbert likes you better-- are you trying to steal Luca from me too? Is that what you're planning to do with all that tutor bullshit? [His tone is pretty hysterical by now, and he's crying harder.]

Is it because you want to see me being left alone just like you were? [He'll probably regret saying this once he calms down.]

From:

[]

No. If I wanted to do that I would have just left you alone and done nothing. You suffer well enough on your own- the biggest insult to you would be silence.

[]

Yes you did. Breaking glasses and making him clean it up was not kind. I had no control over what Claude decided to do. Since he was your servant you're the one who is responsible for him. Why would I even think about stealing Luca from you? You really are stupid- the fact you beat me was a complete fluke.

[]

Is that the best you can do? Cry like a helpless child? Wait for someone to save you? Life is not a fairytale.
