A/N: I'll make it clear for you guys from the very beginning: this is purely fan-made. I like this couple, and if you don't, or you don't agree with something NO NEED TO START A FIGHT. Everybody and his/her/its own oppinion, okay? Glad we cleared that.
Moving on! This system has a very easy construction: numbers-the number of the reason, A-the reason itself, B-proof (well, it is not always fully legitimate, but it's not the point!) and C-a drabble written by the inspiration of the reason. It will be multi-chapped.
Now them: Kuroshitsuji belongs to Yana Toboso. Too bad for me then. Also: CONTAINS YAOI (boyxboy), SPOILERS, CURSING, OOC, SOME EXPLICIT THEMES. DON'T LIKE? TURN AROUND NOW!
enjoy!
1.A. Come on! They almost kissed at LEAST one time in the anime!
B. Season 1 episode 9; season 1 episode 24
C. The master and the servant stood in the middle of the room, just a few centimeters between their faces. Little hands circled a strong neck and bigger hands enveloped a slender waist. They just took a deep breath and leaned towards each other's lips when…a knock sounded on the door and Mey-Rin entered saying "There's a package for you at the door, Mr. Sebastian." Both males groaned silently and rolled their eyes mentally. Someone always had to interrupt them…
2. A. In the manga Azzurro Vanel (the one that kidnapped Ciel) called Sebastian "Romeo". Therefore, Ciel is Juliet!
B. Volume 1, page 157
C. (has a reference to the OVA "His butler, performs")
"What?! You want to tell me they stuck in the middle of the sea AGAIN?!" The head of the Funtom Company yelled in surprise at his butler.
-"It seems so, young master." Suddenly the frown on the butler's face disappeared and he grinned pleased from a sudden thought. "You see, young master, they were supposed to perform "Romeo and Juliet", but since they can't come I'm afraid we'll have to recruit your friends again." Ciel didn't bother to mention that he hadn't friends, or at least he didn't consider those people as friends. "Since we play the main roles in these foolish lives, I assume it will be absolutely appropriate that I'll play Romeo and young master will play Juliet." The butler smirked, showing his teeth to the blushing teen.
3. A. When Sebastian was supposed to save Ciel he told him "I do believe I taught you how to beg." Say whatever you want, but it raises some inappropriate thoughts within me.
B. Volume 1, page 170
C. "S-S-Sebastian! H-harder!" Ciel panted out, his face completely flushed. He and Sebastian were a mess of limbs and sweat on the king sized bed. Suddenly Sebastian stopped from his ministrations. He leaned over to Ciel's ear and whispered huskily before biting it gently "Beg me, young master." This time Ciel decided to ignore his pride as he whimpered "Please, Sebastian, please!"
-"As you wish, my lord." was the gentle answer.
4. A. Ciel always asks Sebastian to stay with him until he falls asleep. I think he needs to know that Sebastian is here, and Sebastian will save him (awww….)
B. Volume 1, page 84
C. "Sebastian, stay with me until I fall asleep." The little boy whispered. The demon butler bowed and seated himself comfortably into a chair. "No." Ciel whispered. Sebastian was a bit surprised, but when he caught his master's longing gaze he understood. He threw his shoes off and climbed under the covers to cuddle his master.
5. A. When Sebastian returned the ring onto Ciel's finger: 1. He lingered a LITTLE longer than he should, 2. It looked like some kind of proposal.
B. Volume 1, page 81-82
C. (takes place after Sebastian returned the ring to Ciel, season 1, episode 3; volume 1, page 81) Ciel sat dumbfounded on his bed. The blue stone on his ring glistened in the moonlight sending little blinks across the room. Ciel couldn't sleep; he tossed and turned in his bed for hours until he decided it was hopeless of him trying to fall asleep. The same memory of his butler slipping the ring on his finger played over and over in his head. The warm touch of his butler seemed to still play on his skin. He just sat there wondering to himself "Maybe, just maybe, was it some kind of proposal?"
6. A. The camera episode. Nuff said.
B. Season 1, episode 9
C. "Master, may I ask a question?" the black butler spoke cautiously as he served the afternoon tea.
-"What is it, Sebastian?" retorted the master.
-"Why did you try to take a picture of me with Talbot's camera? You could've just asked me, more than this, order me to do whatever you wish me to do.
-"None of your business, Sebastian." Was the cold answer before Ciel stuck his nose into another letter that lied in front of him. Sebastian read the expression of the boy carefully before his own features softened. He got himself close to the boy and placed a gentle kiss on his forehead. He then said quietly looking into a lone blue eye "You'll always be the only one, young master."
7. A. Ciel is blushing from time to time when he's close to Sebastian.
B. Season 1, episode 4;
C. Another morning began. The rays of the sun shone through the glass of the windows reflecting on a boy's pale skin. The boy tried to sit on the bed and to keep a poker face as his demon butler dressed him. This time something was different. The touches lingered a little longer than they should, and red eyes flickered teasingly from time to time to meet two mismatched eyes. "Damn that demon." Ciel thought looking away. "He always makes me blush."
8. A. Ciel jumped onto Sebastian.
B. Season 2, episode 4
C. "Young master, jump!" Sebastian shouted.
-"No!" the stubborn answer was barely heard within the roaring flames.
-"Jump!" Sebastian yelled.
-"No!" was the answer again.
-"Do you want to die jus like your parents?! If you won't jump NOW we going to lose each other! This is not the place to be stubborn, Ciel!"
Ciel took a deep breath and jumped. In the next moment he was wrapped by arms in white gloves secure in his butler's embrace. He heard a thumping heart, a demon's thumping heart through the clothes. He looked up to the demon's face and saw black tears rolling from the crimson eyes. The demon…he was crying. "What would I do without you, Ciel?" the Sebastian whispered right into the boy's ear.
9. A. Sebastian always lifts Ciel bridal style :)
B. Season 1, episode 2; season 1, episode 4
C. One fine day Ciel decided he was tired of being carried around in bridal style. Because god damn it! He is not a girl! The entire afternoon he and his butler tried to find another position that will allow Sebastian to carry Ciel, and it would be comfortable for the master. They tried everything: carrying Ciel on the shoulders, piggyback, even potato-sack style (which Ciel liked the least. He wasn't a girl, but he also wasn't a sack of potatoes.) In the end they settled on what looked like the most comfortable opportunity…bridal style.
10. A. Corset scene. Again, nuff said.
B. Season 1, episode 4
C. "S-Sebastian!" Sweat rolled down Ciel's body as he clenched his fists.
-"Just put up with it a little longer. You'll get used to it soon." Was the calm answer.
Ciel dropped his head before arching his back beautifully, moaning loudly. He slumped on the floor, his butler looming over him smirking "Now, when we're finished, why don't we put on the corset he should put on you in first place, young master?"
11. A. Sebastian is very possessive about Ciel.
B. Season 2, episode 6
C. "Even the thought that someone other than me touched young master disgust me enough." Sebastian growled at Claude.
-"So possessive about his little precious soul…" Claude smirked mockingly.
-"It's not only his soul, but his body and his whole being as well." Sebastian retorted. Claude's smirk turned into a grin. "What a shame, to fall in love with your meal." He drawled out in contempt. "I know." Sebastian responded calmly. "And seriously, I couldn't care less."
12. A. The end of the first season: Come on! You should see how they're looking at each other! And it looks like Sebastian kissed Ciel.
B. Season 1, episode 24
C. "Will it hurt?"
-"A little. I'll try to be as gentle as possible."
-"Don't be! Keep it as painful as you can! Crave the pain of my life into my soul!"
A gloveless hand slid under the eye patch tugging it off gently. "Yes my lord" were the last words before the former butler pressed a goodbye kiss to the boy's lips. A single tear found its way out of each of the male's eyes before the final act.
13. Ciel called Sebastian late at night when he was supposed to sleep. My perverted mind thinks about something not so innocent…and you can see Sebastian's rape face.
B. Volume 1, page 185-186
C. ringringring the little bell went off in the kitchen. "My, my, Young master is calling me late at night again." Sighed a raven haired butler softly. Suddenly his features cleared as he grabbed the silver candelabra. "Perhaps, young master wants me to entertain him." He thought with a smirk. He exited the kitchen and disappeared into the darkness of the hallway.
14. A. Sebastian wants everything to be perfect for Ciel. The things that he says about "this is the Phantomhive hospitality" just prove this more.
B. Volume 1, page 12-13
C. "No, no, no, no, no! How much times I should tell you?" Sebastian shoved Bard away from the stove. "The milk is supposed to be exactly 57.6 degrees warm!"
-"Oh, come on, Mister Sebastian! The milk's temperature was 57.3 degrees! He wouldn't notice!"
-"How can you talk like this?! After all, this milk is for the young master! Err… I mean that in the Phantomhive household everything should be perfect!"
15. A. I'm sure that Sebastian hates Elizabeth, therefore, he's jealous.
B. Volume 1, page 50-56, volume 8, page 161 just look at Sebastian's expressions.
C. "Damn that girl." Sebastian thought bitterly as he took all the pink ribbons off the wall. "Lady Elizabeth is more than just a troublesome thing. It takes AGES to clean after her, and she always makes young master sick. And how dare she to touch something that completely belongs to me? I swear, next time she irritates my master to the end, she's going to find her head lying far far away from the body."
16. A. There are more than 10,053 kuroshitsuji fanfics on in total. 3,667 of them are in the narrow categories character A: Ciel, character B: Sebastian, Genre: Romance. That's quite a big part.
B. Look at .net
C. "Sebastian!" the earl of Phantomhive called firmly. The said person appeared in the opened door frame immediately. "What the hell is that s-supposed to m-mean?!" Ciel stuttered a little, his face completely red from embarrassment. He pointed at the monitor of his laptop, which Sebastian brought him from a parallel universe.
"Young master, I do believe these "stories" are called fanfiction. Fans write stories about their favorite characters from books, shows and such." He got closer to the laptop and flicked with his eyes through the fanfic his master had currently opened. He noticed it was rated "M". He smirked and said "I see there is a great amount fanfiction about me and you, young master." He then scooped Ciel up and whispered wickedly to the blushing boy "And I can't say it doesn't please me."
17. A. Ciel looks quite pleased that Sebastian has to stay with him for eternity.
B. Season 2, episode 12.
C. (takes place after the end of season 2) "Sebastian, stay with me forever." A selfish demand fell from the newborn demon's lips. "Like I have a choice..." Sebastian murmured irritated at his master. Ciel turned around sharply, his eyes glowing bright pink. "Watch what you say, Sebastian. You're forgetting that I'm a demon now, so I can hear everything you say." He said. Sebastian didn't move. A cruel toothy grin flashed on the younger demon's face. "You are MINE Sebastian. Mine and mine for all eternity. You will stay a slave forever. MINE!" he screamed. Sebastian snapped "You're wrong, young master." He said quietly. Ciel moved arrogantly to Sebastian "How dare you to say that I'm wrong?!" he threw at his butler. "Because I'm right!" Sebastian roared. He grabbed his master's jaw roughly, almost breaking it and making him look him into the eyes. Sebastian dropped his voice to whisper laced with something sinister "The contract that both of us signed three years ago states that YOU belong to ME. Your soul, body, everything is completely and absolutely MINE. I am merely a helper. You forgot that I only PRETEND that I'm your servant, butler, hound and whatever you call it. You cursed yourself to belong to me for eternity, Ciel Phantomhive."
18. A. Ciel is one of the two things (the first are cats) that make Sebastian happy.
B. Volume 2, pages 29-30
C. (takes place after the end of kuroshitsuji 2) "Sebastian? Are you okay?" A little lonely voice asked. Ciel felt strange. His whole life he didn't care for anyone but himself. He and Sebastian currently sat close to each other on the petal covered ground. "Do you regret forming a contract with me?" he asked.
-"As much as surprising it could be, I regret nothing, young master." Sebastian answered after he thought for a while.
-"But why?" Ciel felt confused.
Sebastian smiled before gently cupping his master's face. "Even though I will never get your soul, young master I'm fine with it. You make me happy, Ciel. I don't regret that I didn't lose you. I don't know what I'd do without you. You're my heaven, Ciel. I'm so happy we can stay together for eternity." Ciel just leaned up and kissed his butler sweetly. "I feel the same way." He said. "Can we…stay together…as two lovers?" he asked sheepishly.
-"Of course, young master."
-"No more "young masters", Sebastian. From now on, call me Ciel."
19. A. Ciel chased Sebastian desperately in the OVA "Ciel in wonderland" (I know, lame.)
B. "Ciel in wonderland" part 1 OVA.
C. (takes place in "Ciel in wonderland") "Wait! Come back at once! It's an order!" Ciel chased the white rabbit. But still he was too slow and Sebastian disappeared from sight. Ciel tripped over a rock and fell to the ground. "Wait…! Don't leave me!" he yelled, tears rolling down his cheeks. "I just wanted to tell you how much I love you…" he whispered brokenly.
20. A. Sebastian saves Ciel every time (yeah, I know, lame too.)
B. OVA "Ciel in wonderland", OVA "welcome to the Phantomhives", season 1 episodes2, 4, 5, 22, 23, 7 and more, season 2 episodes 1, 4 and I'm sure there are more.
C. When Ciel was bored he wondered a lot. One day he started to wonder what he wanted from Sebastian. Loyalty? Sure, but that's not it. Besides he already knew the demon butler was loyal to him. Did he want Sebastian to care for him? That would be nice, but…did he want Sebastian to love him? Yes, of course, but it's still not the thing he searches. He…wanted Sebastian to save him. Yeah…to save him. But from what did want to be saved? In the end Ciel came to conclusion he wants Sebastian to save him…from himself. Part 1
21. A. Sebastian loomed over Ciel to protect him from falling wooden joists. He has sacrificed himself for Ciel. It really looked from their expressions that Sebastian did it because he loves Ciel.
B. OVA "the making of kuroshitsuji II"
C. (takes place in "the making of kuroshitsuji II" OVA) Sebastian lied in the hospital bed. Since the accident on the filming ground he couldn't walk, and his leg was wrapped in medical plaster. The doctors told him he should be like this for about two weeks. A knock sounded on the door and Sebastian answered "Come in." the door opened and his young master entered. He latched himself at Sebastian sobbing into his chest. Sebastian smiled and embraced the little half-cursing half-crying actor. "What did you do?! You could've broken your back, and maybe even die!"
-"But young master, you had a bigger possibility to die, and what would I do without you?"
The young actor looked right into Sebastian's eyes. "And what would I do without you, idiot?" he asked before crashing his lips onto Sebastian's.
22. A. Sebastian sacrificed a hand for Ciel. Twice.
B. Volume 3, page 21, Season 1, episode 24
C. "What will you do now with only one arm?" Ciel asked tenderly touching the place where Sebastian's arm used to be.
-"Everything is fine, young master." Sebastian smiled gently. "Just close your eyes for a second, please." Ciel did as he was asked. Suddenly he felt something on his face. When he opened his eyes he found both of Sebastian's hands cupping his face.
23. A. Sebastian always dresses and bathes Ciel.
B. Volume 1, page 5, volume 2, page 9, volume 8, page 146, the ending song (credits) of the first season (from episode 1 to episode 13), Season 1, episode 17.
C. Ciel hated to admit it, but everyday when Sebastian dressed and bathed him he felt weak. So weak, so exposed so…human. But he couldn't say he completely hated it. Why, he even…enjoyed it in some kind of way. Especially after he hit puberty, the dressing and bathing routine seemed to end more…pleasurably. But what he liked the most about these moments was that he felt like himself. Yes, just he himself. And he loved this feeling that the demon butler gave him more than anything.
24. A. Sebastian held Ciel in a really awkward ways when he tried to hide Ciel's mark. And the expression that they both give when Sebastian swiftly dresses Ciel has something special in it.
B. Volume 8, page 166-168 and 170.
C. (takes place after said pages) When everybody left Ciel rubbed his jaw thoughtfully saying "That was a rather awkward day." Sebastian just smirked and noticed teasingly "My young master looked so cute when he made that expression to make Lady Elizabeth turn away."
-"Don't remind me of this, Sebastian." The earl sighed tiredly. Then a dangerous, but playful glint lit in his eye. "Perhaps I should prove you that I'm not bashful." He said. "I'll reward you for your assistance today by rather awkward way." He smirked.
25. A. Everybody seemed to notice how much Sebastian is attached to Ciel.
B. Season 2, episode 6, volume 3, page 63, season 1, episode 2, volume 8, episode 173
C. "Sebastian." Madam Red called to the black butler. "I know it's none of my business, but may I ask why you are so…attached to my nephew?"
-"The answer is easy, madam." Sebastian answered. "Young master means everything for me…in more than one way."
Hope you had fun! See you soon!
