[The Second Waltz ~ Audio/Action] (Backdated to Valentine's Day.)

[lady_phantomhive]

How can one enjoy this holiday? [She sniffs a rose, careful of the thorns.] My fiancee is nowhere to be seen, my butler is absent and I have no connection to the Queen of this place.

[Gathering her skirts delicately, Ciela sits down beside a fountain and dips the rose's petals into the water. Slowly, she draws a pattern. If one looks closely enough, they will see a heart in the ripples.]

I must make do, of course. But the situation is disappointing. [A sigh escapes her parted lips.] Her Majesty must have some reason for bringing us together. All females...hmmm.

[It hasn't occurred to her that females might delight in the holiday together.]

None of us truly have a connection, it seems... beyond our fair gender, m'lady.

The reason is obvious to anyone with eyes.

By spending it with those you care for or wish to know more about. Limiting yourself to one gender for affections is so passé.

She likes for girls to do it with each other. That's why.
