"Are you sure it's okay, Arthur?"
"Of course, love. I already tested this spell with Alfred and he came back fine."
"Alright. So, how far back am I going, exactly?"
"Hmm...I guess around the late 1800s."
"Ah. Alright then..."

You stood in the middle of the magic circle, wearing a backpack filled with extra clothing and a few portable consoles incase you get bored, and a phone in your pants pocket. You quickly put on a return necklace that Arthur made. The return necklace is a big circle that has two triangles overlapping each other in different angles. You grew nervous each second your bushy-browed British friend is muttering the time travel spell. You then realised one thing.

You're a girl wearing pants, and own absolutely zero dresses. Your eyes widen in such a big realisation.

"Arthur, wait! I don't have any dre--"

POOF

~+~England, Late 1800s~+~

"--sses..."

You groaned in annoyance and looked around. Everything is old-fashioned. The women and girls are wearing fancy-looking dresses.

And then there's you.

The only female wearing trousers and a t-shirt. You backed away into the shadows before anyone could even see you and your clothing. You shifted slightly and started walking, making sure you're still unnoticable. 'I need. To find some place to stay.' You thought. You kept walking in the shadows until you're surrounded by nothing but trees. You sighed and ruffled your (Hair Length) (Hair Colour) hair tiredly. You plopped to the ground and took off your big backpack and threw it onto your lap. You opened it and started rummaging through, looking for your 3DS. "This is a really bad idea to just play around here but I'm sure I'm going to be fine." You muttered.

"What would be a bad idea?"

You almost instantly shrieked. You looked up to see a tall pale man with raven black hair and crimson red eyes. You blinked a few times and grinned in embarrassment. "Nothing, sir. I'm just talking to myself about nonsense." You laughed nervously. "I...have a lot of explaining to do, do I?" The man nodded. You sighed. 'Thought so.'

~+~Some sort of Mansion~+~

The man has introduced himself as Sebastian Michaelis, the butler of the Phantomhive estate. You introduced yourself in return. His eyes reminded you of Gilbert, which made you smile like a loser. Sebastian had escorted you all the way to the mansion, it's a fine mansion indeed. Bigger than the Vargas' mansion.

And now, here you are. In the Earl's office.

Looking completely unprofessional because you're a girl.

Wearing pants.

And slouching.

You didn't realised you're slouching, actually. "Lady (First Name), sit up straight, please." Sebastian said. You instantly stopped slouching. "Sorry." More silence. "I am Ciel Phantomhive, the Earl of the Phantomhive family. And I'm going to ask you questions." You slightly bowed. "I'm (First Name) (Last Name), and I'm more than happy to answer 'em...them." You shifted nervously, holding onto your backpack like it's a large stuffed animal.

"Where are you from?"
"(Country Name)."
"What can you do?"
"I can cook, clean, draw and play games."

~+~Few hours later~+~

"(First Name)!"

You blinked a few times and looked around. You thought you heard your friend's voice.

"(Nickname)! Can you hear me?"

...Oh.

"This is (First Name)." You said, completely confused.
"Oh good, it works. Love, how's the journey in the late 1800s so far?"
"I must say, Arthur. It's beautiful. And also I'm a maid now."
"Had anyone questioned your attire?"
"I stayed hidden. But I was caught by a butler who has the same eyes as Gilbert's. And I was asked many questions ranging from where I was from and why I'm wearing pants since I'm a lady."
"I should've borrowed one of Alice's dresses and gave it to you before I sent you off. Sorry about that, love."
"It's fine, bro. I got dresses here now. Since everyone is asleep now, I guess it's safe to play my video games, right?"
"As long as no one catches you. I guess I'll head off to sleep now. Good night, (First Name)."
"Night, Arthur."

You took off the magic Return Necklace and placed it gently on the nightstand. You took off your casual clothing and rummaged through your backpack and pulled out your pyjamas, which is a light pink over-sized t-shirt with the Pink Panther printed on it and black shorts. You put them on and rummaged through the backpack again. You yanked out your PSVita and turned it on. "I should not be even wearing this or playing these but the 1800s doesn't really have much entertaining things." You muttered as you play (Favourite PSVita Game) on mute. As you played your game, you thought about how you're going to act natural. Because you're from 2014 and your speech pattern might seem foreign to others. You feel rather unprepared mentally. 'Thanks Arthur, Thanks.' You thought with a sigh and kept playing.
