Fandom The Sound of Our Hearts

Jack adjusted her dress as she nodded slightly to Bash. "Very well, it will make things go faster I'd admit." Grell looked at Sebastian with dreamy eyes. "Well we switch out from time to time so many reaper you know? But I think its Ronald, Will, This new guy name Isaac, Alan, ugh there are so many handsome men on the job." Jack smirked a bit. Watching Grell converse about his obsessions with men amused her. He is humorous without even trying. Grell followed behind Ciel to joining Sun along with them. As Grell watched him sniff for clues. He couldn't help but think of how charming he was though he was technically 3 in human years. When Sun made his comment about the Grell scent. He beemed with excitement "does that mean it smells wonderful? Like a perfume of roses and all things red?"





Jack took pieces of paper close by. She began to write words on each one with the fact or clues she knew so far of the situation at hand such as Missing Heart. Butchered body. Wedding card. She soon scattered them on the desk. This was a strange method but it was only to make her have a clearer space to think, maybe do the same to Sebastian as well. Something that the method of ioci didnt do. She took a step back to examine already linking things together. "The wedding card and missing heart are obviously linked... You stole something that is to missing... He stole the heart of whoever did this. He's in love perhaps. The wedding card could represent their future together. But why would he want his heart back?" She said placing her hands on her hips.
 
Sebastian rolled his eyes at Grell's antics. What an idiot, he thought, but said nothing. He looked around at the scattered pieces of paper. "Someone's definitely in love with someone. Ciel? Maybe. But why would they have sent this to him if Ciel can't fall in love with himself? If that's even the case," he wondered aloud. Maybe Jack would listen to him, maybe she wouldn't. He didn't care either way. "It must've been a Reaper. I doubt it was Will or Grell. Will practically hates us, and Grell, well..." he muttered with a slight blush and another eye roll.
 
Jack looked up at him hearing him wonder aloud. She turned her attention back to the paper she began to connect. "To love yourself you have to accept every part even the dark ones. So its easier to love another especially if you know you can't have them." She said stealing a glance of Sebastian before quickly going back to what she was working on. "affection is a very complex subject honestly."


As Sebastian went on to talk about the possibility of the threat being a reaper. She laughed as he mentioned the last part.
"That is true... Didn't Grell mention a new guy? Isaac I think his name was. He could be a possibility. Did you or Ciel ever encounter him in the past?"

Sebastian noted how she looked at him when she said 'especially if you know you can't have them.' He wondered what she knew about the two of them. Obviously not much, unless she had really looked. Which was possible, if not very likely. "Right. Yes, we came upon him a while back," he told her. The fact that the reaper could love his young master... The idea was ludicrous. "I would never guess he would have... Feelings for him. Or anyone, for that matter."
 
"Love works in mysterious ways." She took a paper writing ISAAC that filled the page letting it fall in top of the desk. "This is are first suspect in this case then but the question that still stands is if he will strike again. This is not only a Shakespearan confession of love. We are dealing will a maniac reaper that could kill anyone or anything if he pleases." She said sitting herself on a chair, placing her right hand on her forehead. "Why must ciel always be in a twisted love affair?"

 
Sundiata wags his tail seeing how Grell reacted to his response. He loved Grell like he loved his other masters, he wasn't that bad once you got to know him. He was hilarious and his head over heels fascination for the demon butler was sweet.


He roars transforming into his full form and looked away sniffing the air trying to catch scents that his smaller self could've pick up. His eyes narrow as the smell of blood hits him but he dismissed it being the dead body that poor Ciel had gotten as a gift.



 
"I wasn't aware he was in one before," Sebastian lied. Of course he had been. He was pretty sure everyone around them shipped them silently. Not sure, though. He wasn't even sure if he supported that claim. "Then Sun must be able to track him down. Or Grell might be able to find him. After all, it's not like he can just leave work." He began to shuffle the papers around, using whatever he could to link the phrases together.
 
Jack raised her eyebrows."I meant with claude. Trying to take his soul last time and now this. Ciel is one charmer I'll give him that." She said back before looking at Sebastian with a smirk on her face. He made his love for ciel so obvious though make excuses as he would only doing his job and wanted his soul. Though they could also be true there was something more to it. All she wondered was if Ciel felt the same. "Well there is nothing else to look for here. The rest is up to sun and Grell. But I should report our findings to them. It could help."




@HoneyPhantomhive
 
There was a noise of shuffling leaves and the two turned around to see Ciel standing stunned next to a scrub, cheeks burning red. Jack’s question – and on top of that, Sebastian’s “strange” response towards the question - caught Ciel off-guard for a second.


- Sorry, I was about to call out to you two but I was too focused on the conversation and forgot.


He dismissed the guests and left detailed instructions for the servants to clean-up the party.


- So Grell knows the culprit. Let’s go ask him what he knows about that person and whether he can keep an eye on him for us. After that, I think we can go home & take a rest. After all, I haven’t received a “gift” from my bulter yet. No, Sebastian?


He leaned towards Sebastian and whispered, hot breath brushed on the man’s lips. So much has happened today and he need some comfort, a touch, some words of comfort, or simply a cup of warm honey milk. As proud as he was, Ciel could only seek for this comfort from Sebastian – the only one knowing his past.

Sebastian could feel his face burn red. It normally took a lot to make him blush, but, if anyone, Ciel could do it. He straightened back up and ran his hands over his jacket, trying to play it off. If Jack didn't ship them before, she certainly did now. He hoped no one else was around to see him. "Yes, My Lord. Where did Grell go?" he asked, trying to divert the attention away from them two.

Seeing the guests leave Sun decided to watch each and every one of them trying to figure out if any of the scents mimics that of which a Reaper gives off.


"Human. Human. Human."



A low growl of frustration escapes him when everyone came out human. He was glad to know that Ciel wasn't in danger at the party and that it wasn't anyone inside who was wanting to cause him harm. He returned to his small form and raced back inside to search for anyone inside that seemed suspicious.



He stopped when he noticed Ciel and Sebastian, the flustered expression on the demon was cute and he tagged his tail. Hearing the question about the red Reaper Sun realized that they had left Grell outside.



"I think Gwell is outside." Sun squeaks.



 

"Don't worry I'll get everything done from here. Seems you have a lot to discuss. I suggest you fill Ciel in on our findings." She said before leaving the papers on the desk. She walked outside with sun to where grell were. "After doing some thinking we have narrowed our suspects to the reaper named Isaac. Do you know him by chance?" Grell turned to look at her. His eyes beamed "yes of course, he's such a cutie and he became a reaper not too long ago. By why would he do that?"


"I'll fill you in as we make course to where Isaac might be. Sun do you think you can track him?"
 
Sun nods "Yeah! I can find him, don't wowwy I'll do my best!" The demon hound said beaming. "Gwell can you find something of Isaac's I don't wanna confuse his smell with diffewent weapors." He said kindly.


He was thrilled to prove himself to everyone he didn't want to let Sebastian down nor Ciel. For this is what he had been breed for.
 
- Do you have any of his possession with you now? - He asked Gwell, knowing his hobby of stalking pretty men. - If not, you can bring it along in your next visit.

"No, I don't. Its not like a carry a strand of his hair or anything! I'm not that creepy!" Grell said beginning to pout.

Oh, what a surprise. So Sebastian is the only one the red-haired man clung too?


- Sorry, just asking. - Ciel chuckled. - Well, Isaac sounds a bit suspicious, but there isn’t any solid evidence yet. I'll do some digging strarting tomorrow; I may even arrange to meet with the culprit. Grell, could you please approach Isaac a bit? See what kind of person he is and what he’s up too lately. Getting an item from him would help the case tremendously, but don't force yourself if it is too hard. After all, not causing suspicion is the most important thing. Could you do this for Sebastian’s sake, please?


He said in a conjuring tone, batting his eyelashes.


- Sebastian, sorry for ragging you in to this mess again.


He gave Sebastian an apologizing look and tenderly rubbed the man’s hand. If anyone, the Reaper is the only one who can hurt a powerful demon. And the worst thing is Ciel can’t help him at all, because he is merely a weak, powerless, unsettled child.

Sebastian flinched, his face turning a brighter red. He brought his hand closer to his body instinctively. "Not that creepy?" Sebastian muttered. Of course he was creepy. He would carry around a lock of his hair if Sebastian would let him. Not that he would, anyways. "I beg to differ."

Aw, how adorable. Ciel guiltily realized why Grell liked teasing Sebastian so much. If he were more grown up he would have an urge to kiss gently on each of those slender fingers until Sebastian's face turned completely red. But Ciel was still a child, so he just snuggled into the large chest and reached up to wrap his arms around the man’s neck.


- *Yawn…* I’m so sleepy… and tired. Carry me back will you? My legs hurt standing up for a whole day….


He knew he was acting spoiled. Sebastian should be the one complaining about tiredness since he did most of the party preparation. But it was not Ciel's fault he became like this, wasn't it Sebastian who had spoiled him rotten?

Sebastian was unsure why he was acting like this, in front of everyone, at a time like this. It was quite a disturbing time and there was no space for mere luxuries. Especially this one. He heaved him up into his arms like he was cradling a very large baby. "Yes, my lord," he murmured. He began to walk back towards his room, but not before turning back to Jack. "Let me know if you find anything or need my assistance. You know where I'll be; here, twenty-four hours a day," he told her before going back to his room.

"Hey! You can't defy my love!" Grell said dramatically."Of course Bash. I will see to it that everything is ready to go." She said before taking her coat , walking out before spinning on her toes."Grell you will take me to this Isaac person." Grell jumped a bit before a look of shock went throw his face."But you can't go to the reaper department I mean you're still human." Jack smirked. "I know. that's why you're going to sneak me in." She grabbed his hand before taking him away. Into the night

 
Sebastian finally sat Ciel down in his bed, the springs squealing loudly in protest. He stood back up and gave his master a slight glare. "What was that?" he asked with a slightly menacing tone, almost a growl. He had been embarrassed to an extreme point back with everyone around. He wasn't saying he didn't like it - it was just embarrassing. No, he did like it. He liked it a lot, it just made him uncomfortable.

Did he make Sebastian angry?


For a moment Ciel's heart skipped a beat, before he recognized the slight shade of red still lingering on the man's cheeks. It was rare for Sebastian to lose his composure, perhaps Ciel over-did the act... a bit.... He didn't know Sebatian would be that reserved towards public display of affection.... Or perhaps... he did not like it? To the point that he was angry? Ciel could not tell; he was good at reading people but acted totally dumb towards those close to him.


But why would Ciel think this way? How could Sebastian - a demon - count as one of his dear beloved?


The haughty side of him - however - did not allow him to apologize or appear disquiet, so instead Ciel explained non-chalantly.


- I don't trust Grell. Call me paranoid or not, but going with him to the Reaper Department is like... walking into a trap.


He looked over his bedroom's window towards the front gate. Jack and Grell were hanging there waiting for the gate to be opened. With his speed Sebastian should be able to catch them within seconds.


- So my butler, you will stalk them. - He waved at the two shadows, smiling with ease. - Without interfering at all except during emergency.


Ah, how inconvenient not to be able to go with Sebastian. As physically clumsy as he was, even a cat could recognize Ciel was following them, not to mention a Reaper. He guessed he would start making calls asking about recent murders with missing hearts, and compose a reply for that heart-breaking love letters.


No broom would reject an invitation of meeting from his bride, would he?

Sebastian flinched at his ignorance towards the subject. Of course he was trying to divert attention away from himself. Because that was the sort of self-centered brat he was.


But that wasn't the problem at the moment. He had asked to follow the duo to the Reaper Department? He wondered how he could get in past all the security. But, of course, if he was asked to do it, he would find a way.


He walked back towards the door. He paused to turn back with a sly smile to say, "Yes, My Lord." He opened the door and left.


He then had to think of a plan. Maybe he would just follow them, then sneak in when the door is still open. If not, he'd have to get dirty. However much he would like that, people seemed to prefer he stay on the sensible side of things.


He slid outside quietly and quickly and opened the gate, not bothering to hide. "I suppose you'll be needing this opened."
