[ Sebastian nods in muted agreement, since he agrees with what's said, but after a moment's pause, he does laugh. It's not a pleasant laugh, though, so Ciel can guess easily that Sebastian isn't about to have something nice to say. ]

You know, with all of these questionable things piling up, I do have an idea on the nature of what might be causing these things to happen. The bodies we found at first were not the work of a mindless beast, and if our latest victim was cornered, that is one thing, but if they were perhaps left their intentionally...

[ He cants his head lightly, though it's just an idle gesture. ]

That would mean something intelligent is playing a game. The aim here would seem to me to be unease... Since if it were simply a creature rogue on the ship, it would not be so careful, now would it? I have a feeling that in coming days, we may see an escalation.

[ and as it turns out, he's right... good job sebastian ]
