The First Move [Audio -> Video]

[faustianphantom]

Very impressive, Sebastian. [The words seem to come from a distance. But the gasp that follows them is much closer.] ...

How the hell did I - [The speaker cuts his words short. He senses that he's not alone and it isn't long before he finds the recorder.]

Video? [It's said awkwardly like he doesn't know what it is or what it could possibly entail. Luckily he doesn't have to think about it for long. The screen pops up - as if on cue - and he is...

Being recorded.

Despite his less than welcoming frown, Ciel is a prettyhandsome boy in a Weston College school uniform. Though something must have happened to his right eye. It's covered by an eye-patch.]

This technology is foreign to me. If anyone happens to be listening [He can't imagine he's being seen on multiple screens!] I would appreciate some assistance. My name is Ciel Phantomhive and I need to return to Weston College.

[He jerks and stares at the strange device for a long time. Surely this is some trick! Why is Lizzie's image on -

She's moving?!]

L-Lizzie?

[faustianphantom]

Where are you? How do you know about this...device?

I'm in my apartment, but I'll come to meet you right now. I'll explain everything then. Where are you? Oh Ciel, you have no idea how wonderful it is to see you! There are so many things I've learned and discovered here!

I'm in...another apartment, I suppose. It reminds me of the dormitory I just left behind. [Only with items he has never seen or used before.] Lizzie, what year is it? I have a feeling it's -

Never mind. [He gets up and walks to the door, trying to locate the apartment number.] It says Pisces 10-08.

Can you...find that?

[oathofdevotion]

Well, I could tell you the year, but I think it'd be best if I explained it all at once.

[She perks up.]

Oh, yes. It's a district away, so it will be awhile, but I'll be there soon. Don't run off now!

Is this place safe to travel alone? [It isn't very gentlemanly to make her come to him, but he doesn't have a choice.]

Keep this...recorder...on.

[oathofdevotion]

Oh yes, it's very safe, don't worry! [She smiles reassuringly at him as she pulls on a coat and heads out.]
