Will you feed me to your void?
i love this "with mama" meme. mm yes give me more baby animals with mmama.
I know how the current relationship between r!Ciel and o!Ciel looks like, but here is a sentimental theory on our little twins’ relationship:
They used to be inseparable, two peas in a pod, and our Ciel seems to be the more sensitive one compared to his older brother, but if you look closely, r!Ciel was the one more deeply attached to his younger twin.
Now, from our point of view, this older twin rises up from the dead in such a disconcerting manner; leaving piles of dead bodies sacrificed for his resurrection. Since he was supposed to be the sacrificial lamb required to summon the demon, it becomes a question of whether r!Ciel even still has a soul, or if he has become something else entirely. This “soulless” brother killed Agni then proceed to frame o!Ciel for his crimes and ousted his twin brother and the servants from the manor.
But what was it like from r!Ciel’s point of view? After being cruelly murdered on the altar, his body was butchered to retrieve the Phantomhive ring from his stomach. His younger brother was consorting with the very same demon who ate his soul. Not only does o!Ciel not seem to resent Sebastian at all, he trusts and relies on the demon, treating him like a most trusted confidant, the only person o!Ciel allows to carry and touch him in such a familiar manner. From all manners of appearance, it seems almost like his younger twin has been coveting his position from the start, using the chance given through his demise to usurp his rank, steal his name, his position as the heir, and even his fiancé.
From our Ciel’s point of view, Sebastian is merely a demon summoned by the people who killed his brother: he does not begrudge Sebastian for being what he is. He negotiates a fair contract with terms of service clearly defined and a promise for the payment to be delivered at the end. Our Ciel cannot trust other people, but he can trust the contract; thus making Sebastian the only person worthy of his trust, the only one who can’t abandon him, can’t betray him, and will definitely stay by his side until the very end. From r!Ciel’s point of view, this is the demon who consumed his soul and stole his younger brother. After all, before Sebastian was there, they used to be each other’s closest confidante.
His little brother has changed so much, and he seems to be living happily as the Earl of Phantomhive with this filthy demon by his side tending to him, catering to him, touching him so familiarly with the same hands which ripped Ciel’s stomach apart to dig for that ring; the ring that was supposed to be their promise to return home together. His little brother left him behind on that altar and told the demon to reduce everything to ashes. He couldn’t even be bothered to give him a proper burial. He acted like he never had a twin brother in the first place: nobody aside from their closest family friends and relatives even knows that the Earl of Phantomhive had been born with a brother.
While he was left for dead, forced to become an undead abomination prolonging his miserable existence by stealing the life and blood of other people, his twin took his place and denied him of his existence. It was the pain of betrayal like no other, from his most trusted and beloved brother.
But therein lies the paradox: who was it that our Ciel truly buried, with no sentimental feelings left, given that he took the name of his brother?
We don’t even know the birth name of our Ciel. Rather than Ciel Phantomhive has disappeared, it was more like his brother has disappeared. Almost without a single trace.
Why did the little brother choose to take his older brother’s name? The readers know that it was not only for the inheritance; but this is because we read what was going on in his head. The real Ciel does not necessarily know the reason why his brother chose to take his identity; and by saying that he does not intend to pursue it, he likely does not dare to hear the reason why.
Our Ciel was haunted with the guilt of being the only one who survived. The spare should have died in the place of the heir, not the other way around. Even when making the deal with Sebastian, he constantly thought of ‘what would Ciel do?’—but Ciel is gone, and he’s the only one left. No matter how difficult and insurmountable it seems, he had to live in the place of his twin, acting like it was Ciel Phantomhive who had survived.
So he has killed himself and removed all traces of his existence; all for the sake of revenge—in order to let Ciel Phantomhive rise from the ashes and restore honor to the name of the Earl of Phantomhive. There is no use for the spare, there is only place for Earl Ciel Phantomhive. The only remnant left of the person who used to be Ciel Phantomhive’s spare was the toy company. It was a silly childhood dream, and our Ciel has accomplished it true to his words… in the place of his brother.
The toy company was perhaps the last remnant of his selfish desire; the wish that if his brother had been the one to survive, he would fulfill the childish dream of his dead younger brother. If the real Ciel was truly the one who survived that night, maybe he would also think to remember his little brother this way. Even if the spare was to disappear without a trace, with his soul gone into the bowels of the demon, surely his older brother will commemorate him so, letting him leave their mark in the world; symbolized by the rabbits that were their tenth birthday present.
It’s just such a shame that the spare was not the one who died and the dead does not remain dead, so both were left hurting each other; each thinking the other wants him to be gone, leaving their brotherly affections broken beyond repair.
Fancy Tuna and Frantic Texts
Fandom: Ouran High School Host Club
Characters: regressor!Haruhi Fujioka, caregivers!Tamaki Suoh and Kyoya Ootori
Words: 3,000
Summary: Haruhi regresses after a hard day at school, finding herself dissociating in the hallway, waiting for Tamaki to text her back. Luckily, Kyoya is there to take care of her as they wait for Tamaki to arrive.
Warnings: Involuntary regression, themes of accidentally missed meals and hunger, canon cglre terminology (Tamaki as Daddy, Kyoya as Mommy), accidental regression reveal, brief argument between Tamaki and Kyoya, which causes Haruhi stress.
Note: Haruhi and Tamaki’s relationship is continued from this fic that I wrote previously! Reading it first isn’t necessary, though ^-^

the fan survey brought it to mind but I really do appreciate how good black butler is about knowing where to fade to black/strongly imply/cut scenes re gore/torture/rape
there's a lot of death in the series and a lot of heavy topics and events, but none of the assault is onscreen, nor are there drawn out torture scenes or anything else that would be pushing from emotional intensity into gratuitous depiction (the later half of book of circus with the kidnapped children dying as they were performing is the worst we get in this vein of things, but even then their deaths were quick and the scene itself is intense but short)
as someone who does have triggers regarding some of these things, I've never actually felt unsafe watching or reading black butler even given how front and center Ciel's backstory and trauma is. There's plenty of other media that would have had the assault on screen (I can't watch GoT) or that does have torture sessions, but we don't need any of the grisly details to have the full emotional impact and to understand what happened to Ciel
the indirect method is also incredibly emotionally effective anyway:
showing a body being dragged away in the emerald witch flashback with a comment of something like "damn nobles don't know how to reign in their fun" makes it perfectly clear what happened and the horror of what Ciel feels in the moment and has been through is abundant, but we didn't need to witness it (reminds me of how people have talked about the Mad Max movie and how the implications of what the wives have been through is clear, but it's never shown and doesn't need to be)
yet, it's also not watered down. the mind can fill in the blanks on the spot and have the same revulsion without a specific scene
I just feel like the balance struck is usually not discussed but I find it to be perfect, as I don't want to shy away from the full brunt of things, but I also don't enjoy having torture onscreen that leans more into the gore/trauma purely for the spectacle side
His name is Dips-In-Blood (I call him Dippy)
It’s pride month
ciel is a great character because he’s a massive bitch and the smallest little tragic baby that’s ever existed. three apples tall and they’re all laced with cyanide
While finny was learning how to talk, ciel decided to teach him a few essential words. Sebastian would have to try to undo it, but ciel still, let's finny express himself freely.
Manipulative and cheeky? Yes. Heartless? Never.

One of my favorite things about lawlight is how L is the person who knows Light the best, but this is framed as something sinister. The fear and loss of privacy Light experiences during the Kira investigation intersects so neatly with the idea that Light is someone who fundamentally lives in fear of being known.
L puts cameras in Light’s bedroom, locks him up in solitary confinement, handcuffs him to his side. Light is dehumanized, inspected. And L knows that Light is Kira but he also knows how Light interacts with his family, what he looks like when he’s sleeping, and how his well-mannered facade cracks when he loses his patience and punches L in the face.
L knows that Light looks at porn magazines with an uncomfortable clinical gaze, he knows that Light is queer, he knows that Light is not the perfect son, that Light is selfish and flawed and weak and not a god at all but a human being
and maybe deep down Light doesn’t want to be worshipped; he wants to be loved but to be loved is to be known and he’s so fucking scared of being known. The closest thing he experiences to intimacy is an attempt to destroy him
Ciel riding on Bard's shoulders is now forever ingrained into my brain he's literally just a child
