[Looks all around at the unfamiliar technological doodads, noting the copious use of electricity where in London, such use is just starting to be implemented. He can take two guesses as to where they are, and might not even need the second one.]
It looks like the Reaper headquarters. Undertaker or [grimaces] Sutcliff may have inadvertently sent us here. [And as soon as the thought occurs to him, Ciel pushes Sebastian against the wall, enacting stealth mode. They'll walk along it, with Ciel glancing around corners for Reapers before tugging Sebastian along.
For some reason, the stragglers they see wandering here and there don't seem to have Reaper colored eyes, but Ciel's chalking that up to Reapers being ridiculous creatures that contract human soul constructs for their maintenance work. Or at least, it makes sense in his head. And the balcony?]
It was a distraction technique. Undertaker knew you'd try to catch me [Sebastian's sleeve gets a light squeeze at that] and took advantage of that. [He gives him an unreadable sideways glance.] I've never seen you make that face before. [Does he mean the pain from being skewered? The desperation on Sebastian's face when Ciel's fingers slipped from his? Who knows.]
