Talbot Camera

M/n pov

All of us servants except Sebastian were reported into the young master's study.

Mey-rin, Finny, and Bard were worried about being fired.

"Great, you all are here. I have a job for you all."

"J-O-B. Job. Yay, we thought you were going to fire us. We didn't have to worry about anything." Mey-rin, Bard, and Finny exclaimed happily jumping.

Our task involves with the Talbot camera Ciel got from an auction.

Tanaka did the honor to explain what the camera is.

Finny was the first volunteer, and I was the second.

In Finny's photo, it showed a flying bird.

"He was amazing. When we first met, I gave him some food. Later, he would eat from my hand. It was when I pet him-" Finny explained with a statue of a bear lost it's head with a fish in its mouth.

Mey-rin and Bard were frightened a little from the story.

"So, what about the friends of M/n? Did they passed away?" Mey-rin said.

"Yeah, they are gone and went to the afterlife. We met in school when I was younger. The Asians in the group got into a vehicle accident in [Asian country]. However, I don't really remember how Willie died. He lived in the Carolinas for awhile before traveling north to Massachusetts." I explained.

"Is Willie the darker skinned kid? If it is, then I am surprised that you have met and befriended him with Crow's law around." Bard said.

"Yeah! What a surprise to meet him when I have been surrounded by international folks who pretty much see a bunch of white people?" I said being nervous in a dark corner.

"Your task is to take a picture of Sebastian for me. That is an order."

"Yes, young master!" We said in unison.

"Wait a moment. Wouldn't it be easier to take Sebastian's image from the camera if you ordered him to stay still enough to take a complete photoshoot?" I said as I was about to leave the study room.

"You do make a point there. However, I wonder how the others could handle the job. You may go now." Ciel said.

We tried to get a picture of Sebastian, but I gave up instantly to attend to the normal chores assigned to all of us.

I must say, he is quick to do a task.

Mey-rin pov

"Oh, we are never going to get the photo. He is too quick." I said.

"Yeah. We have a task to do. However, we have to take care of the demon hound."

We later found out that Pluto could breath fire.

Later in the day, Lau showed up.

He said he had a plan set forward in helping us, but...

"So, what are you doing?"

I can't believe this guy to be forgetful of what is happening.

Soon, there was plan set into action involving Ranmao.

It failed in the end.

Finny pov

After the entire day of trying to take Sebastian's image, we failed as a group.

Now, I have a statue of a winged person in a toga without a head in my hands.

The plan was for me to throw in up high to crush the young lord.

I was uncertain if it is safe, but he is the one who gave me a home and let me be free as a gardener who works outside in the beautiful nature.

I threw the statue and had last thoughts.

Luckily, Sebastian saved him in the nick of time.

"You know you could of told me to pose for a picture you know. I would have did it as an order being your butler."

"Ha! Told you." M/n said near the dragon sparklers in his night clothes holding Sky in his arms.

"I will be leaving now. I am sure tired from a day to make sure the work of 3 people who were tasked to do something else. Good night!" M/n said as he rushed away into the building.

Wow. I feel bad for him to take care of all our work while we tried to take Sebastian's image.

He has bags under his eyes. Also, Plu-plu must of tired him out with playtime.

(Pluto is alright with him. The bags under the eyes is known to be aegyo sal or just puff.)

Later, we were trying to get a clear image of Sebastian.

However, Plu-plu ruined the moment when he breathed fire on us.

The next day, we received a photo of Ciel with Sebastian and Pluto.

We were so confused on what is happening and who Ciel cares most.

"If you want my opinion, then I would say Pluto is in the picture because he climbed onto the glass window. The camera shows an imagery of what we may hold close to whether they be dead or non-human. It could show some illusion we could want to see happen because I am sure my parents would be in my photo. They may be terrible at raising a child, but I care for them even after their death. However, I am unsure if you guys are even listening or take notice of me here." M/n said passing by.

In the evening of the day, I was thinking of what is happening in the picture.

Oh well, who cares.

I played with Pluto for the rest of the evening.
