[A lot of fat good her lectures did, just look at where they are now...
But well. Things are as they are, hm? She doesn't have much right to complain anyway, given that his meddling has changed her life for the better, in a roundabout way. Shiki himself might never come to realize just how big of an influence he played, but...
Ah, it may just be better off that way. Ciel herself was okay with it, this is strictly her business there anyway.]
I'd chide you about the location, but I suppose you don't have much luxury of choice in the matter. Germany is a hot spot for everyone, you know? The Church especially has been on higher alert with all that's been happening recently, so you could run into meddlers no matter where you choose to go.
[A beat.]
None of them are as subtle or skillful as me though, but I wasn't trying to be just now. Still, I'm happy that you got the right message. [Which is true, there's genuine warmth in her voice.] How have you been holding up? [She doesn't mean his eyes, that's obvious. It's already a matter long settled anyhow, there's no use beating a dead horse. No. If anything, this small talk...
It's more like an attempt to recapture those old days, aha, or at least the specter of memories from brighter and easier days long gone. Ciel is opportunistic, don't let anything be ever said otherwise.]
