What Trauma Behaviors Do You Want Explored?

So I already have a list of different behaviors I want to experiment with when it comes to writing Ciel, including some that either are looked over often or are seen as 'disgusting' so they're often seen as something taboo, something to not be talked about.

There's a decent amount that I'm planning to put in that is meant to reflect my own personal experiences, but I figured I'd ask those who are checking out PWMI if you had some suggestions. I make no promises about including them, but if I see an overlap of something I already have planned or an idea that never came to mind, I may take that in account.

Remembering that Ciel is currently only ten, and that this is a modern AU without him having to be an earl cursed with a demonic pact, what childhood behaviors that stem from trauma would you want to see addressed? What is a behavior you would find cathartic to see written?

PWMI Chapt.2 Update

The first draft has officially passed 9k and I am still not finished with it. I have at least three, maybe four, sections left to go.

2. I have most of the connections planned out; it's been very helpful. Here's a censored version.

I still have more to add to this, actually... but it's enough for now.

Convincing myself the scenario here is it's Sebastian's wedding or something with a bouquet like that... and o!ciel, his son, is the ring bearer.

PWMI Chapt.2 Out of Context

[a-glitch-in-the-shattered-stars]

Ciel is already suffering emotionally, but sometimes his suffering can just be genuine cringe, as a treat.

I'm not even a third through the chapter's first draft yet... and I'm at 6k words.

Mind you, the starting chapter's first draft? That was only 7.5k, which I turned to 14k.

Whoops.

HOLY SHIT?

(sb/cl and the like pls DNI)

I absolutely did not expect this much support, I cannot thank each and every single one of you enough!

Paved with Malicious Intent has reached over 230 hits, over 30 kudos, 12 bookmarks, and—not counting my replies—9 comments!

(fanfiction link)

And the original post, which you can find here? Also over 230 notes!

I have never gotten such support or feedback on anything I've created before, I'm genuinely blown away. Everyone has been so kind in both comments, notes, and tags ;A;

I was so worried about it but it seems a decent amount of people are excited to see where Paved with Malicious Intent will go; and I have some news!

So the goal will to be, hopefully, posting a chapter a month. I already know what I am writing for Chapter Two (so this month's) through Chapter Two (so December's)! I'm drafting Chapt.2 now, I'm outlining Chapt.3, and I've spent a good few hours making a graph to connect all the characters together.

I'm so excited to show everyone what I have in store, so please stay patient for the next chapters! Again, thank you so, so much, I've had a really rough past two weeks and this has really made me feel better.

I'll see you at the end of this month!

Out of Context quote from the second chapter.

Ciel, looking at Sebastian: I think we should bring back public executions just for you

The draft of the first chapter of Paved with Malicious Intent has been finished! I just need my beta to go over it, do whatever changes must be done, and should be posting it by Sunday!

My original goal was 13k words. I beat that by over a thousand.

Exited to share my writing with the Dadbastian part of the fandom!
