[ Unfortunately for Sebastian, Mey-Rin has been trying to reach him ever since the communicators went down. Partially because her own Dominant was trapped and missing in the Down, but also because she'd noticed that the butler seemed to be missing in action as well...
While she wasn't worried about his safety, per se, she was worried about the situation in general... about how all of the guards completely disregarded her questions and worries in favor of just trying to force horrible festivities onto her. In fact, she was worried enough to send literally a hundred or so text messages of concern and attempts to get information to him. There's even voicemails (which are completely novel to learn even though she hadn't figured out how to check those on her own communicator just yet). And once Riza is finally home safely she decides to try and reach Sebastian again. ]
Mister Sebastian! You're alright!? I was so worried! Where are you?
[Typically Sebastian is excellent - no, more than excellent - at keeping track of incoming and outgoing messages. Unfortunately, nearly getting killed by a most unpleasant demonstration of Anduin's "Light" (and oh yes, being shot by some strange weapon), means that the butler has fallen out of contact. He's still moving gingerly, minding the ugly burn that he carefully drapes his tailcoat over to hide, when he registers the comm device going off.
...Oh dear. It seems as if Mey-Rin has completely flooded the inbox, forming a wall of her username.
Eventually Sebastian replies back]
Apologies, Mey-Rin. I'm still in the Down, but I assure you that I am alive and will be well enough to work soon.
[If he wasn't a demon, he would've been touched at the fact she cared this much about her boss]
I'm glad to hear your voice... I hadn't been able to reach you or Miss Riza so I was worried something had happened.
[ She feels a bit bad about how many messages she sent, even if a lot of them hadn't completely but the Up was acting so dismissive that it felt off. The sudden increase of SIN guards, the festival out of nowhere that was clearly a distraction. Now that the trains seemed to be back up she'd been seeing rather haggardly making their way back from the window of the apartment. ]
[Sebastian is both irritated at Mey-Rin's lacking conduct and also impressed at her incredible obstinate follow-through. Perhaps he will swallow the cost of some of her debt regarding the broken dishes - a modest amount, mind you.]
I appreciate your concern, as I'm sure your Dominant does as well.
Right now... I could use a healing salve of sorts, if you are able to procure such a thing.

[ Someone was actually able to injure Sebastian? Enough to make him need time to rest? That's a surprise. She's even silent for a brief moment. ]
I'll see what I can do. There are so many shops here, I'm positive I can find something. Is it a large injury? I can drop off some bandages--I've got plenty.
[ But she did feel it was something that Ciel would want to know. If something could actually hurt Sebastian of all people, it was important, but as Sebastian is her superior she knows to follow his lead. ]
A large burn... I can certainly find something for that. Are you able to dress it yourself?
[He doubts he'd have scarring, but that was with typical weapons. Being burned by the Light might actually prove the exception to the rule and so Mey-Rin may be correct]
Thank you. I would appreciate any help you can provide.
It's most pleasing to hear that your Dominant came back safely and I'm sure she'll be glad for the care you provide.
[Mey-Rin would do well to look after her money-ticket in Duplicity - or, perhaps, a better way to put it would be a valuable asset in the form of a Dominant who seems to be quite protective of her]
Thank you, Mey-Rin. I believe I may be able to attempt heading up in the next few days, and I will leave you a voice message when I'm on my way.

Naturally I would appreciate it if you exercise discretion about this mishap around the young Master, whenever we see him again.

no subject
Mostly, but I may require assistance.
no subject
I can help. I've dressed wounds enough in the past... though with large burns you'll likely have a bit of scarring.
no subject
Thank you. I would appreciate any help you can provide.
no subject
[ And Mey-Rin had already addressed her minimal wounds. ]
I'll gather supplies. When you make it back to the Up just let me know... I'll come by. I'll fill you in on the situation of the Up when I do.
