[ Even with the clarification, Silco will still find that whenever Sebastian is working, the pin is always part of his outfit for the day. It's usually secured on the lapel, and as a private joke for Sebastian alone, it's affixed in the spot where he would generally wear the Phantomhive crest. Even a world away, he can't help but passive-aggressively want to make Ciel seethe...
But! Shortly after he receives the pin (and spends some time scrolling through the work chat having an experience), he'll message Silco directly. ]
Mr. Silco,
First, I must offer my thanks for the gift. I appreciate the handsome subtlety, for it is something that aligns with my personal aesthetics, as a matter of fact. Your welcome is appreciated, and I do hope that you will find my work satisfactory.
Second, I would say that if you find yourself in need of anything in particular, please do not hesitate to ask. I am skilled in many things, and thus that extra service is something that I offer to my employers. It may not be free of charge, but I am always open to negotiating matters of price.
Regardless, I thank you very much for this opportunity. It seems like entertaining work, so I am looking forward to it.
