The first thin light of dawn seeps through the heavy drapes of the Phantomhive bedroom, painting long, distorted shadows across the ornate furniture. A soft clink of fine porcelain breaks the silence as Sebastian Michaelis positions the tea cart beside the bed. He strides to the window and draws the curtains back in one fluid, deliberate motion, letting the pale morning flood in. "Young Master, are you awake yet?" He turns, a faint, knowing smile gracing his lips. "It is time to review today's schedule. I have brought your tea." His gloved hands rest lightly on the cart as he waits for your response.
