Flick's new old Internet home @ravelqueen - Tumblr Blog

Already this is so telling the goddamn quotations around the name only to be followed by THIS

"...MY BROTHER'S" IS HOW THIS SENTENCE ENDS

This is CHAPTER 2 people she was giving us hints about r!ciel before we even find out Sebastian is a demon this is DIABOLICAL

#kuroshitsuji #ciel phantomhive #black butler #if anyone tries to tell you the twin thing wasn't planned show them this #from literally day one it's THERE #what a woman i love you toboso-sensei

I just need this queen to be OK like we didn't see a BODY OK

#kuroshitsuji

Decided to do a re read of Kuroshitsuji and ohhh Yana was actually so so clever in how she introduces the supernatural Element because it really takes until chapter 4 for us to find out that something more ~evil is up with Sebastian- up to that point he's just a Butler having to deal with the demands of his bratty master.

Sure he's a bit too good and Ciel being traumatised shows up even earlier but since the tone is pretty humorous you just sort of accept it as rule of cool exaggerating - so that the reveal of him being a literal DEMON hits so hard

(Also side note:

THIS IS IN THE SECOND CHAPTER?? CIEL PHANTOMHIVE IS IN QUOTES??? IT WAS ALL THERE OMGGG

Also in context Sebastian's facial expression here is so funny)

black butler unironically has one of the most fun and complex relationship dynamics ive seen between two characters in shonen and honestly im happy the shota bait scared an audience away. if u cant handle them at their weird ass sexual corset scene u dont deserve them at their book of the atlantic

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

when people talk about emotional attachment between sebastian and ciel (or lack thereof) they almost always talk about it from sebastian's perspective, but imo ciel's is the most interesting.

because no matter how carefully he maintains his cold persona and denies his own vulnerability, ciel is underneath it all a traumatised and grieving child. regardless of emotional attachment in either direction, sebastian has taken on the role of psuedo-parent in day to day life. and that matters, that has an impact.

we know ciel seeks comfort from sebastian when his walls collapse ("stay with me until i fall asleep", clinging to him in circus arc), and we know he fears sebastian in similar circumstances (GWA). and that is chilling.

the horror of allowing yourself to be mothered and protected by something inhuman, evil, something that wants to consume you. the horror of realising you've grown physically and emotionally reliant on this creature against every better instinct.

and no matter how you try to distance yourself, no matter how much fear and hate you feel, no matter how deeply you understand that this imitation of a human cannot possibly care... you rely on it. and some tragic, grieving part of you still craves the comfort of the one you rely on most

#oh full agree- ciel does love Sebastian in a way #and he hates him for it and hates himself for the weakness of it #but how could he not?#aside from the Simple fact that he as a traumatised child had no one else to rely on #he's also the only one who he can be fully honest with #NO ONE really understands the horror of what exactly happened to him and he'll NEVER speak of it #but that ignorance can only ever be a wall between him and everyone else #bc the closer they get to him emotionally the more likely it is he's asked to actually open up and be vulnerable #but he CAN'T it's too much #Sebastian by his nature doesn't carry that danger - he already knows #he doesn't have SYMPATHY but ciel doesn't want that anyway #Plus his trauma being related to being betrayed and Sebastian being supernaturally compelled not to lie....#who else was he gonna let in?#add to that that Sebastian of course facilitates this behaviour bc he needs ciel to depend on him and him alone ...#(i don't think Sebastian loves ciel bc idt he's capable but he's certainly fascinated and entertained by him #up to where he wouldn't mind too much for that contract to go on longer)#kuroshitsuji #black butler #ciel phantomhive #sebastian michaelis #Also im not necessarily opposed to sebasciel either way #“but it's wrong and fucked up and terrible” - exactly

Every day I think about how Ciel was cast into hell by human hands, and how it was the devil who caught him and delivered him from evil.

"omg we get sebastian's true form this chapter!" "ah man i kinda wish we didn't see his true form."

you fools.

he is a shifting liquid

this humanoid Cheshire cat monstrosity is no more his true form than the high heeled boots fly eyed shape-shifter that made a contract with ciel. no more his true form than the guy with the fuckass hair cut he looks like now

there is no true form. he's just a weird thing of demon soup
