‘ello, don’t make yerselves comfortable.
Well! That’s certainly not very polite of you… I merely wanted to introduce myself.
When have I ever been polite? If that’s what ya’ want then who are ya’?
Hm. I’m Lord William Kirkland. It’s…nice to meet you, I suppose.
Same. Captain Kirkland, *he held out his hand*
[hesitantly takes his hand, shaking it] Captain?

Hm. I’m Lord William Kirkland. It’s…nice to meet you, I suppose.
“Ah, hello. Welcome to Kirkland Manor.”
*Giggles* Hey~ Kirkland is my last name too~! <3
Really? [eyes him] That is interesting… You do rather resemble my younger brother… Hm.
And you look like MY big brother! What a small world~
Indeed. What is your older brother’s name, if I may ask.

When my tea isn’t prepared properly. Of course, I don’t have to worry about that with Nathaniel around.
William couldn’t help but be interested by this. “A King? King of where, may I ask?”
“Hells yeah!” Alfred grinned, leaning on his hand. “Spades. I’m the King of Spades.”
“The King of Spades? That’s…interesting.” He trailed off, looking the other up and down. He didn’t look very much like a king at all, in William’s opinion.
Nathaniel shot him a small smile. “I’m assuming you’ll want tea with that.” Afterwards, the butler made his way to the shed to gather some materials. Once done, he went on with his midnight rose harvest for a few minutes. He effortlessly trims about three rose blooms and when he finished, he placed back the tools in the shed and started to make his way to William’s bedroom. He made a mental note to himself not to forget his young Master’s midnight cup of tea.
As Nathaniel went through the necessary steps of getting William his roses, the young Lord once again closed his eyes, letting the sounds of the night wash over him. As expected, it took the butler almost no time at all to complete his task and soon William was sipping tea in his garden, his butler standing faithfully by his side. “I should do this more often…” William mused. It was hard to tell if he was talking to himself of Nathaniel.
The butler chuckled silently in amusement as his Master murmured his thoughts out loud. It was a rather rare occasion. “Yes, perhaps. It’s a rather nice night, don’t you think?” He remarked, shifting slightly on his legs and peering up at the dark sky dotted with stars. The light breeze wafted in the air, rustling the blooms and tree leaves nearby.
“Mm…” William murmured, nodding once in agreement. It was a very lovely night. Although he would never admit it aloud, he was glad Nathaniel was here with him. In fact, he was almost always glad when Nathaniel was with him. In addition to being an excellent butler, he was a good companion. “Nathaniel, you don’t have to remain standing. You may sit if you wish.”
“Ah, hello. Welcome to Kirkland Manor.”
*Giggles* Hey~ Kirkland is my last name too~! <3
Really? [eyes him] That is interesting… You do rather resemble my younger brother… Hm.
“Ah, hello sir. Welcome to Kirkland Manor. Is there something you require?”
“Mm, no. Not really. I’m jus’ lookin’ ‘round. Why, what’s it ta you?”
“I was simply wondering why you’re here. I’ve never seen you before. …Although you do look a tad familiar.”
“Well, you look familiar, too, but you don’ see me askin’ what’cha fuckin’ want from me or askin’ what you’re doin’ nowhere.” Alfred made a face, already annoyed. That didn’t take long.
William stared at him with wide eyes, sputtering indignantly. “I was only trying to be polite!”
Alfred scoffed. “Polite, Schmolite. I’m a King so my words overpower yours.”
William couldn’t help but be interested by this. “A King? King of where, may I ask?”
“Ah, hello. Welcome to Kirkland Manor.”
