Yes, this is Prince Soma. Leave a message with one of my servants and I will read it when I have time. Goodbye.

voice.

[faking]

[Sometime in the evening, Soma will get a voice message...]

Hey, mister prince, I need to have a seat with you, would you be so kind?

Action

[princeofpictionary]

[ Well, this is a curious thing. Still, despite Soma's iffy feelings towards Alois, he's not one to ignore people. So, there's only a short wait before he's noisily busting into whatever room Alois happens to be in, at the moment. ]

Yes, I am here! What is it?

Action

[faking]

[Alois starts a little, and... can't help but wonder if this is what people feel like when he annoys them..........

Ah, perspective.]

Oh... good.

[He clears his throat.]

I thought I should say it in person, as long as you can keep your fucking voice down, so it's less risky that we'll be overheard...

[He gestures over the coffee table, to the seat across from himself, so that Soma might sit if he's so inclined.]

It's, uh. I mean, it concerns Ciel's birthday.

Action

[princeofpictionary]

OH!

[ Yes, Ciel's B-day is definitely something to be quiet about! Soma closes the door quietly {gasp!} and slinks over to the offered seat, trying not to make a sound. ]

Alright, I am listening.

Action

[faking]

[Well, this is a good start...]

Right. It's soon, as you know. And usually he doesn't like it at all, but I always want to make it... good for him. I always want to throw him big parties, you know, eat, drink, and be merry, but that never makes him happy so I have to do something else... Because I can't just leave it. It's a good day because it means he's here in the world.

Um. But, I mean, you want to make it good, too, right?

Action

[princeofpictionary]

Of course! He is really stuffy. He needs to learn how to relax and have a good time - especially on his birthday!

Action

[faking]

[Shrug...]

He likes to think he's quite withered.

Action 1/2

[princeofpictionary]

That is exactly why he needs to...

[ Oh right, supposed to be quiet... ]

Action 2/2

[princeofpictionary]

oops!

[ Soma covers his mouth, switching over to an exaggerated whisper. ]

Smile more...sorry!

Action

[faking]

I'm... sure you've noticed how fucking difficult it can be to make him smile.

Much as I'd love to force him, it doesn't work that way... We have to think of things. Good things. You knew him back home, before everyone else here, so you know more of what he's used to...

Re: Action

[princeofpictionary]

I only knew him for a short time, but we did grow close very quickly.

Hmmmm...

[ Ponders for a few moments. ]

We played music together. Drew some things. Oh, he very good at fencing! He almost beat me!

Action

[faking]

Yes, I was aware of the time you spent toge—

[Wait.]

Almost?

Re: Action

[princeofpictionary]

[ If Agni interrupting counts as Soma winning, then yes. ]

It was a good match! You should have seen it!

I am not sure how we could turn any of that into a present or something, though.

Action

[faking]

I didn't realize you were good... [Derailed.]

Re: Action

[princeofpictionary]

Of course I am! I have Agni as a sparring partner.

Action

[faking]

Right— [He shakes his head.] Anyway! Listen, can you be discreet? Like, are you capable of this?

Re: Action

[princeofpictionary]

[ Goes to answer YES right away, before pausing, looking a bit guilty. ]

...I can try.

[Have a paniced Alouette]

Prince Soma, I need to speak to you immedietly!

[princeofpictionary]

ALOUETTE! What is wrong?!

[oujomerchant]

[Flail]

Did you hear?? It's Ciel's birthday!!

[princeofpictionary]

Well, yeah. What kind of best friend would I be if I didn't know Ciel's birthday?

[oujomerchant]

Wh- You are Ciel's best friend? Really? I.. Well, I suppose that makes sense.. Sort of..

[Actually Alouette is very skeptical, you don't really.. Come off as someone Ciel confides in.. On the other hand, no one would expect Alouette and Recette to be best friends either so..]

W- Well anyway, this is good fortune for me, I do not really know what to get him. I do see him eating sweets on occassion; does he really enjoy them that much? I am trying to think of a gift idea.

[princeofpictionary]

[ Alouette has every right to be skeptical. Soma is a self proclaimed best friend, much to Ciel's daily misery. ]

Yes, Ciel has quite a sweet tooth. That is why I made him cookies for his birthday!

[ Which may or may not be horrible... Soma's not exactly well acquainted with cooking. ]

[oujomerchant]

[ Well she'll let it slide for now. But to hear he is baking cookies catches her interest.]

Oh wow, that is cute! I was not aware that Princes did any sort of baking. Well, I hate to cut the conversation short, but I'd best gather ingredients for Alouette's Graceful Sweets. I shall see you later, My Race Prince!
