"I will if you like..." He was blinking slightly, that was pretty random considering what they had been talking about. He wasn't so sure what was happening and just wanted to give the other man room if he needed it.
Settling where he was he turned his head up slightly, thinkign that it was rather interesting a situation but he wasn't sure what to do exactly.
CAlling the puppy too him with "Takara" the puppy did respond to the random word he had just started using instead of "come here". IT might be weird by Ciel was weird and had needed a word to call the puppy.

The taller man sighed deeply. It seemed to him that the diea was not appreciated. And he just shook his head. His thoughts were blurred by the darkness and he was not sure of what he felt, thought or wanted. He stood up and he went to his room without a word more. He did not evne bother to cose the door behind him. He simply tried to find amongst the broken furniture and frames something to wear.
He quickly got changed in something that was more like him, a sleeveless leather shirt and those sexy red pants of his, but this time he did take the heavy chain with spikes that was usually sitting in the room wihout much of a use.
It was the first time Ciel actually saw him with that weapon.
"...I'm going for a walk... have fun..." He needed air.. and he needed to find Cain.

Ciel blinked once.
Berith had just left... with a weapon... in his state? He was rather torn between following after the man... and staying, if he followed him... it would most likely betray the trust he had in him... because he was 'sticking his nose into something that was not his business...' Though he wanted to make sure the other man was alright...
The puppy whined softly at his feet, those large eyes gazing up at him. "No... We can't go after him... he needs room to breath... If I go... what does that say to him? That I don't trust his abilities and his decisions..."
Just deciding on something... the puppy was collared and the long leash being wrapped around the table leg in the kitchen with his water and food bowls and some bedding too.
Before Ciel moved from damaged room to damaged room cleaning up and fixing the most he could without the puppy being in danger of being hurt. He would clean while he wanted for him to come back.

Berith really did need some time on his own. But he wanted more to find that treacherous man who had done that to him. Cain was very well aware of the effects of him going to Tokyo, and now he had forced himt o stay for a longer time, as if he had expected him to be happy over thta. How was he supposed to be doing anything now that he was caught in a state he had to be stoned most of the time to stop feeling the pain? How was he supposed to go on with his life when his life was limited to resting on a couch for long days?
He knew wher ehe would find those answer, he knew where to find Cain.
He went to the roof of this little temple, quite a few miles away from his house, but it was not the small white haired man he found there but rather his scary big brother. Now that was a first, Abel was the kind who enver really showed up, so why now? Why?
Well, there was no precise answer to that, but it was a lot easier to talk to Abel than it was to Cain. And they somehow managed to get through things rather fine... only, nothing was good enough to tame the demon lurking in him. The painw as mostly taken away though, and as soon as it left him, Berith passed out in the other man's arms.
A bit later, there was a gentle knock on the door of Berith's apartment.

Ciel blinked, his head turning slightly to look towards the door, before moving quietly to put down some of the things he had been putting back together, the puppy whining softly and strainign to get off the leash... the poor thing didn't like being kept liek that but it was needed while there was still such a mess to finished cleaning.
Opening the door, he blinked at the people outside, if it had just been Berith wouldn't he have just unlocked hte door and come in?
He just paused a moment. "Hello?"

Berith was being quite literaly dragged by a much thiner man. Abel was standing there, looking at the man who had opened the door. He was quite glad to have been told that there would be someone home because else he would have had to bring the demon back to his palce and that was not somethig that he liked to do. He did not like having guests when his brother was there, or when his son was there, for that matter. He had not felt like hearing Cain's constant nagging. And so he was happy to bring this man home.
"...Hello..."
He frowned slightly, dark red eyes scaning Ciel for a moment. Not someone that he knew but he could ask about that later.
"Care to let me in? He's quite heavy... well, just uncomfortable."

"Berith..." Ciel looked really concerned, ducking forwards to help take some of hte weight from Abel, helping them carry the man in to lie on the couch, the puppy whining from teh kitchen...
He offered the other man a cleaned off seat in the loungeroom, digging out a blanket to settled over the big man, tenderly brushing at the crimson locks and looking deeply concerned... Who wouldn't be when the man you cared about was brought back barely conscious by someone.
"Thankyou for bringing him back..." Ciel knelt beside hte unconscious Berith, his small hand brushing across a warm cheek.

Abel did not really seem to mind carrying Berith around, or well, he did not seem to be affected by his rather heavy weight. He was just a little worried over what his brother would tell him. Well, it was not like Cain ever had his say in that kind of things. He simply crossed his legs and he looked over to the much bigger man for a moment. The markings were a lot darker now and they seemed like they were not about to disappear.
"...He's alright..."
He did not want Ciel to think that he had ever done anything to hurt this man. He had not. Cain had. He had ordered it but that was another matter. He was usually very nice with those people who could help him... usually.. ther ewere some exceptions, like Aoshi, Shalahassan... yes, ther ewere some exceptions but that was when brute force was required.
"The 'demon' will leave him alone for a while.. or at least it will not hurt him as it did.. and he won't have ot resort to those nasty things..."

"Thankyou, Sir." He didn't know this guy's name and it didnt' particularly matter now that Berith was back and apparentyl a little better too... his trust had been placed and it had turned out alright.
"My name's Ciel De El Aram." He might as well identify himself, though he didn't know if the other man would know he was an assassin, few knew him by name that way, but he had a good reputation. Though he was trying to stear a lot away from that kind of work anymore to just be the Physician...
"Would you like something to drink?" He had to remember his manners, Berith was sleeping right then and it was alright... he should offer the man something! He wanted to make a good impression. Though he wasn't sure who thsi guy was... might as well be nice.

Abel lifted a dark eyebrow. Of course he knew who this guy was, and of course he knew that he was an assasin, but that was because he was a rather informed man. But in either case, he was just a little wary of this guy. He was trying his best to be someone fine, at least when it came down to people like that.
"...Yes, I know who you are."
So he was an acquaintance of Berith. There were good chances that they had taken some time to speak before one of them passed out. "...Sure.. knowing Berith... he probably has bits of everything.. I'd like Hydromel if he does."
Abel was quite facny when it came to that. "I'm.. Abel." It was not quite a common name, but it was weird that he did not have a family name with that.

"I'm trying to give up that profession. After my last... job. I found something better then a simple kill..." he gave the other man a wry smile, he looked rather cute like that, before standing up and going to make the particular drink that was asked of him and made himself some warm mint tea to soothe some slighly frayed nerves.
Returning with the drink, he handed it to the other man gracefully before sipping on his own.
"I want to prove to Berith I can be trusted. Though I have a long way before I can ever undo what I did..." He settled down on the floor close to Berith, almost like he was tryign to protect him. He knew the other man most likely knew what he had done so what reason did he have to hide the fact of it.
"I have reason to want his trust.

The taller man smiled very softly and he looked over to Berith. It was ironic that he was blaming Ciel for trying to kill him. Berith had terrible orders himself and he was following them almost blindly so he was not really one to argue that he was doing something wrong. But he was not going to say that because Ciel probably would not want to hear it from Abel. They all had orders, that was just a truth from this life. No one ever was completely free and those seeking for that were just fools.
Or that wa shis own opinion.
"...I'm sure that his trust will come in due time."
He smirked lightly and he drank some of his winde. He loved the taste of that particular drink. "...I'm pretty sure he will be slightly more open after my short visit."

"Alright." He wasn't sure what he made of this man before he shifted to go pick up the whimpering puppy, lifting the small creature up and releasing him form the leash, before carrying him towards the other man. The little cute ball of furry, tail wagging crazily wanted to apparently meet the other man.
"Abel, do you mind?" He gave him a rather cute smile, hoping that the other man didn't mind dogs!
"It looks like someone wants to meet you." He let the puppy onto the floor where it sat down, whining ever so softly, ears wiggling cutely and begging for attention.

Abel was not really an animal lover but he would not hurt the puppy or anything. He simply set his cup aside and he leaned down to brush his longer figners over the dog's fur. He let the puppy lick him happily for a moment before he pulled away and let out a very soft sigh. He kenw that he should note ven have been in that house so he was clearly better to leave before Cain understood hat was going on, or Berith woke up.
"..Well, I better get going..."
He stood from the couch and he stretched out. He did not really seem like a bad person, in the end, perhaps he was just a little crazy but that was not something that Ciel could have known.
"...I turned off his cellphone, let him sleep for now... He should be fine by the morning..."

"Thanks Abel for the help." He bowed slightly to the other man, not really into the full japanese bowing thing but he was trying to show the other man the respect that he did deserve for doing this for the other man.
Letting the other man out with a farewell...
He returned to Berith, digging out a rather soft pillow to and some extra blankets, carefully wrapping them around the man, and also settling the puppy in its bed before it decided to make itself at home on top of him again!
Settling down beside Berith his head rested on the edge of the couch, wanting to stay close if the other man needed him during the night. Turning all the lights off... he knew he wouldn't have managed to get the big man to his bed... so it was beter this way. And he just allowed himself to doze off.
