I recently (FINALLY) got a copy of Kuromyu 2015 and have been watching the behind the scenes extras. Lycoris is such an important musical to me, even though Ciel and Sebastian aren't the focal point of its story which follows the Red Butler arc. I had to sketch something to put all my Big Emotions somewhere.
It was unintentional, but I ended up with going for a "tango of rejected intimacy" vibe, with Ciel almost pushing away (despite having given Sebastian a kiss), and Sebastian leaning fully into the smallest inclination of intimacy and capturing it. I also learned into the idea of Ciel falling away from his familial ties into a deeper corruption with the devil that we see at the end of the arc.
Anyway, this was a very lazy sketch. But I love them. ❤️
Adults: Okay, then don’t read properly tagged explicit or dark fics. Or perhaps don’t lie to the website that you are 18 or over and are mature enough to view that content when you’re clearly not.
Something I've been saying repeatedly over the past two weeks is that the Weston anime feels like a Big Fat Love Letter to the veterans of the fandom, many of whom are SebaCiel shippers or just lovers of Sebastian and Ciel. From the beautiful attention to every detail (quite literally down to the way strands of hair fall!) to the continual manga-accuracy; from the late-manga cameos of the opening song to the undeniable romance of the ending song, it just feels so full of life and a clear homage to Kuro's fanbase who has stuck with it despite long periods of waiting and many (many) different iterations.
I will die before I shut up about religion in Sebaciel.
Ciel who lost favor of the divine because damage done onto him had heavenly angels close their eyes and turn their heads away. Sebastian who picked up the pieces and drenched the cold-eyed statues in blood. Ciel who is too impure to belong among high heavens and who violently rejects God. Sebastian whose very existence is a disgrace to God; and who disregards the divine. Ciel who knows too little of the devil to worship him but who gets entangled into a web of demonic vices. Sebastian who falls on his knees before this sweet, wicked boy.
Ciel who has a demon worship the ground he walks on. Sebastian who will remain his domini canis as long as Ciel plays his part. Ciel who becomes Sebastian's altar, lamb, and the knife he guts the boy with. Sebastian who feasts on Ciel's essence as a holy eucharist. Ciel who will live a prey or die a martyr. Sebastian who will murder him in a church. Ciel whose name is a litany. Sebastian who is the priest. Ciel who is the corrupted skies overtaken by pitch-black clouds.
realistically, Sebastian wants to be in Ciel’s guts every chance he gets but the one thing stopping him is the fact that he’d probably accidentally kill him.
