Then it would be my pleasure to welcome you to my home and my table, Lord Dagoth.
[ As expected, there’s no hesitation or awkwardness at all as Sebastian slips into referring to him with a title. It’s perfectly natural, and as with the rest of his mannerisms, gives the impression of not only being an excellent servant, but one used to dealing with nobility. It’s not untrue, either. Even besides his period of servitude to Ciel, he’s met and served people from all social strata throughout his existence. From desperate slaves to greedy god-kings, a demon simply comes when he’s called.
…Not that there’s any trace of that, considering his humble answer to the question. ]
Oh, I would not call it anything so illustrious as a duty… But there are a few households in Highstorm that I attend on occasion when they call for my services. It is an informal sort of thing, but if they are hosting a party, I may be their butler or chef for it, or if they simply wish to have their home spotless, it is also a service I can provide. It is how I came to know some of the longtime residents, in fact.
[ …More or less. There’s a bit more to the story than that involving ingratiating himself to some of the vampire covens, but it had both been simple enough and not stories for polite company. ]
Though if you are in need of clothiers, I can make recommendations in either city. My own tastes tend towards simple and pragmatic, but I admire good work and good materials above all else.
