2 tightropes walked - voice post

Blimey, this apartment ain't 'alf large. Are they all like this? Can't get use t'havin' this much space. Wonder if Beast'd mind me sharin' her room. Real different from the tents. It's weird them bein' so high up too. Glad I've got a good head fer heights or I'd feel right strange. Nice of this place t'give us somewhere t'stay though, never thought I'd live somewhere like this.

T'other day, that was one of the curses, right? Frightened me stiff, all that noise an' fightin'. It was 'orrible, hope they ain't all like that.

Right, I wanted t'ask, someone told me there's an orphanage 'ere. Anyone knows who I can talk to 'bout givin' an 'and there maybe?

To give 'em an 'and there, of course.

Suddenly treading down the path of benevolence, are we? Do you think it's that easy to forget one's self?

/big sis smash! (someone got the lowdown...)

Is it so easy to pretend, too, Smile?

Only if it lets me advance my pieces further and bring me one step closer to eliminating a few problematic roaches from London.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Roaches?

[phantom-earl.livejournal.com]

Have you proven yourselves to be otherwise?

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

You'll find out soon enough, won't you, boy?

Take care you don't regret those words. Just because we're here doesn't mean I still can't take you over my knee- Something it seems your dreadfully in the need for.

[phantom-earl.livejournal.com]

You forget what position you're in, Beast. You stand to be crushed soon, and only because I know death is impermanent here, do I stop my foot from stomping the lot of you out.

Make no mistake. It's not an act of mercy that you're still alive today.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Your foot, or your butler's? You're no threat to anyone, Earl- you're a child!

We don't need your mercy!

[phantom-earl.livejournal.com]

Sebastian's foot only works as an extension of mine. Even if he's the one that does the stomping, it's my desire that guides him.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll promise you this right now.

If you don't want to lose a butler, he won't come near any of us- None of the Noah's Ark circus!

[phantom-earl.livejournal.com]

Then don't do anything that would give reason for him to come near you.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

We'll do as we please.

[freckleddoll]

'ere, what'd ya mean, I always like helpin' out!

[phantom-earl.livejournal.com]

And just who are you helping this time? The man you call father, yourself, or those children who will be butchered for his amusement?

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Doll, don't dignify this little bastard with a response.

He doesn't know a damned thing.

[freckleddoll]

Yeah...yeah, I won't. Can't understand 'ow he's so...

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Sometimes people aren't worth understandin'.

Let him be. He don't deserve your words.

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, a'right. Guess it's better that way.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Nothin' but traitorous trash.

[freckleddoll]

I should've realize he wasn't what he said...dunno 'ow ya put up with me bein' so stupid sometimes.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

Told ya, s'not your fault.

[freckleddoll]

Don't feel that way.

[lackingbeauty.livejournal.com]

I know.
