He'd spent a late day in the store the day before, having several Bitter Rabbits customized to share at least a passing similarity to their recipients. And when they'd been finished, he carefully wrote out notes for each, boxed them, and set them out to be delivered the next morning. Two of them, he packed up to take home with him, to give to their new owners personally. They were in an unmarked box at least, easily covered up as something for work that he didn't want to leave.

He hoped the invitations would be accepted. At least in their own home, his father and Undertaker seemed at least a bit excited for Hygge. Even if it was something unique to this world.

Ciel also made sure the had plenty of ingredients for cocoa and plenty of marshmallows for it. His sweet tooth demanded as much. Anything else he was sure would be asked for. A shop wasn't too far away that they couldn't get anything needed or wanted. Or so he hoped.

Comments

She steps inside, not sure what to make of the skeleton comment, but it is nice to see Ciel so happy. "Of course I came! Thank you for inviting me!"

No one knows what to do about the skeleton. Vincent smiles at his son's happiness, gently laying a hand on his shoulder.

"He would not have forgotten you."

Ciel simply puts up with Albert, he doesn't regret buying the decoration, especially since it made Undertaker feel more at home. And neither Ciel or Vincent have ever really been bothered by the dead.

"I have only a few people I really care about here. I couldn't have not invited you." he glances at the hand on his shoulder for a moment and then back to Beverly. "I hope you liked your Bitter Rabbit. And Undertaker started cocoa in the kitchen, you're welcome to help yourself."

Her expression softens. Strange as the decor and this family may be, she cares a great deal about Ciel and his happiness.

"I loved her. The kittens do too - Agatha keeps cuddling up on top of her!"
