[The sharp ones know she dgaf about vampire killing, not really.]
We're usually good at turning a blind eye, but it becomes a problem when too many go missing and don't report back. Should I talk to him next time I see him, too? He does have to meet up with me periodically for his... um... condition. He doesn't like it when I get on his case either, but he doesn't have any other choice in the matter~
[Ciel is also his Engie so HE HAS NO CHOICE...]
Haha, that's certainly humbling, but you do have a point. How about you go first, then? We can fill each other in as we go along.
[a quick beat.]
--Ah, but before that. I do have tea with me, even if it's not natural. It's the best that we can make do, in our kind of situation. Would you like a can, Tohno-kun?
[But isn't it nice to find out that SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE...]
I'll start one if you're feeling cold, but there's no need otherwise. I can heat the can up without a fire, if you'll give me a few minutes?
[She chuckles quietly.]
I know, I know. But he never seems to be listening, you know? He takes things far too seriously too, so he gets even more bullheaded than you sometimes. Still, since it's from Tohno-kun, I'll see what I can do.
[He might hear the soft thud of some parcel bag being set on the ground and some faint clunking of goods before the air grows still again.
She gives a bashful giggle.]
Didn't someone once tell you that strange powers attract other strange powers? Think of it as something on that line. Besides, with a line of work like mine, that sort of thing really can't be helped. Makes sense?
I'm surprised you can make allies of a certain sort in your line of work.
[He's not even going to question how Merem got there but Enhance was another story altogether. It seemed like he would be some kind of double heretic since he was a halfie.]

I prefer my tea at least warm but I can start a fire.
[Getting firewood would be easy enough. He could also light it but he suspected that Ciel would have a much easier time at that task.]
But don't be too harsh on him. [As in, Enhance.] He has his own problems that he wants to resolve.

But you sure surround yourself with a lot of weirdos, senpai. [Shiki is including himself in that.]
