I pretty much knew what was going to happen. But that's the thing: you love people because you know their story. You have sympathy for people even when they do stupid things because you know where they're coming from, you understand where they're at in their head. (x)

Some shots from Ciel Phantomhive cosplay photo shoot! Super happy with how these came out even with all the technical difficulties that came along the way. Both costumes designed and sewn by me (i.e. many hours of suffering). The tailcoat is a mix of several of Ciel’s outfits (mainly the volume 6 cover outfit and his tailcoat from the Campania arc) and the second outfit is the best I could do to recreate his miasma dream sequence outfit from the Emerald Witch arc! Photos also by me, shot on 35mm with a Canon FT QL and a 55mm Canon lens at f/1.2.

“Since these scarlet flowers usually bloom near cemeteries around the autumnal equinox, they are described in Chinese and Japanese translations of the Lotus Sutra as ominous flowers that grow in Diyu (also known as Hell), and guide the dead into the next reincarnation.” x 

“The transience of the [cherry] blossoms, the exquisite beauty and volatility, has often been associated with mortality and graceful and readily acceptance of destiny and karma.” x

Ciel is my favorite excuse for drawing flowers ok.
