[For Undertaker]

Ciel was sleeping late, window open to let in air until it started cooling down for the year. And when he woke, it was...

with panic. He was in a strange bed rather than sleeping in a cold cage curled up in a ball like the other children, his clothes weren't filthy, his back didn't ache, and his eye- he couldn't see out of one eye. That's where most of his fear and panic came from, the rest was from the absence of his brother and the fact that he was somewhere strange.

He didn't bother looking around, instead climbing out of the bed as quickly as he could, throwing open the door of the apartment and running, calling out his brothers name and hoping for an answer.

[Shopping/wandering]

By now, Undertaker had told him the name he was to go by in Riverview, to keep his eye covered, and that he was Earl Phantomhive, not that is helped him at all. He hadn't exactly been groomed to be an earl and that only really did him favors in England.

Exploring should be alright, or he thought it should. He kept his phone with him- a weird phone and it looked absolutely nothing like the phones he'd ever seen. It was slim, almost like it was just a pane of glass, and he had no idea how it really worked. He needed it though. Apparently.

He did visit a couple shops for sweets, that hadn't changed, and a cafe. Those that knew him would probably notice there's a distinctively different air about him.

[River]

Ciel didn't have any swimwear but that didn't stop him from making his way to the beach. And it was okay for him, he wasn't the strongest swimmer. Instead, he was happy to just sit close to the water, slipping his bare feet into the river.

Not for long though. His health wasn't the best and soaking any part of him in cold water would probably invite illness and an asthma fit again.

When he did stop though, he found a quiet spot to skip rocks.

[ Jon frowns lightly. ]

Because you work for the Queen?

[ That clinches some of his suspicions. Ciel wasn't lying but that heartbeat feels different. Younger, almost. Jon tries for a reassuring expression. ]

Yeah, it sounds like hard work either way. I guess your parents are overprotective. Mine can be too.
supersweet: (A ghost who never quite fit in)

[ Hmm. His parents were overprotective but with Jon's powers, it was also easier to let him out of their sight. ]

Sounds rough.
supersweet: (Superman is the most vulnerable)

I'm not saying they don't. Doesn't make it any less tough for you.
supersweet: (A man who will never let us down)

[ Jon can sympathize with that. He's certainly made life difficult for his parents. ]

I'm sure your parents prefer having you around more than you know.
supersweet: (They come from the sky)

[personal profile] supersweet 2017-08-21 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure it's not as bad as you think.

[ His parents have done that too. Balancing their super-lives with their regular ones. It took some time to adjust, but Jon gets their reasoning. ]

It's not so much for you as much as they like to do things with you.

Just ask them later then.
supersweet: (He will look like you)

[personal profile] supersweet 2017-08-25 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
[ Ohhh boy. Jon winces. ]

Sorry. I — I didn't know.
supersweet: (I'm tired of "safe!")

[personal profile] supersweet 2017-08-25 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
I know that, but it's . . . I can still feel bad for you.
supersweet: (Dreams save us)

[personal profile] supersweet 2017-08-26 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
I don't blame you. It's not something you can . . . get used to.

[ Jon probably wouldn't be able to. ]
