I thought of him when I saw what the characters could make.
[Then, after a pause, this comes through:]
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
He was important to me.
no subject
Is your butler also important to you?
no subject
Finally:]
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
A butler is important to any distinguished household.
no subject
Did you ask the CDC to bring him, then?
no subject
A butler always accompanies his master, so I had them offer him the same option. He would be unable to refuse, though I don't think he would've.
no subject
But I didn't see him with you on Selena.
no subject
He doesn't always have to be with me.
no subject
I know someone who had many maids.
But I don't think they're as dedicated.
no subject
Many maids, but not dedicated.
He has one, and she is as loyal as any of the others.]
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
A master should never surround themselves with servants who aren't dedicated.
no subject
She wouldn't call herself that.
FROM: yuki.makoto@cdc.org
It's fine being alone, too.
no subject
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
Yes, being alone is fine.
no subject
My teammates are safer back home. [That's what he meant by it all.]
no subject
What if they aren't?
[He's less trying to be a butt (God knows this place isn't safe) and more trying to reassure his own suspicions. He's worried about a few people back home, none of which he will ever admit save for maybe Elizabeth.]
no subject
They can take care of themselves.
FROM: yuki.makoto@cdc.org
It's better than them being here.
no subject
Do you really think so?
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
What if one of them makes the same choice you made?
no subject
Yes.
FROM: yuki.makoto@cdc.org
I asked for their safety, and my world's safety. They would have no reason to say yes.
no subject
The CDC does not discriminate, Makoto.
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
They can trick your friends if they want.
no subject
I hope they wouldn't.
no subject
They tricked me.

I work for Queen Victoria. She sent me a letter asking me to host a guest. The recruiter.
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
Sebastian and I believe now they forged the Queen's letter in order to get us here.
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
Your friends could still be bribed.
no subject
So you never said yes to the contract itself?
no subject
I said yes. It's what the Queen wanted me to do.
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
But if the letter was a forgery, then it wasn't really her who wanted it.
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
It was the CDC.
no subject
I came here so they wouldn't have to.
no subject
Don't mistakenly think you're the only one.
FROM: phantomhive.ciel@cdc.org
Don't think your friends won't still be brought in.
