Late Xmas present for my very good friend - sorry I've been so hard on you this year ^^;
I hope you like this series of drabbles that was originally meant to be done in July (I think) if only I'd found it sooner xD
Enjoy!
Prompt: Light/Dark
The world is full of opposites. Light and dark are just one example of opposites.
Just like two very well known earls settled in London. Phantomhive and Trancy. About as opposite as you could get.
Of course the two had similarities with a few variations here and there, but other than that there were easy differences.
Phantomhive had grown up a nobleman, obtaining a place as head of household at a young age after a family tragedy, owning his own company and being waited on by servants who very much cared about his wellbeing. Trancy had grown up first in a small village in the country with his younger brother, who sadly died alongside the entire village in a fire. He had then been found and taken into a noble household and 'cared for' there. Soon he, too, had taken over as head of the household though he owned no company. As for his servants, well, there was really only one who truly wanted the attention of - the others either didn't matter or greatly displeased him.
Even their appearances and personalities came down to being the opposite.
Phantomhive was more closed off, steady-paced and broodish. He often wore dark colouring - including his hair of being that of a darkish blue near to black, his eyes being that of a dark blue as well. Trancy was excitable and easily intrigued by the most nonsensical of subjects or objects. He craved for love - romantic, platonic, it didn't matter to him so long as he got it and received it well enough. His bright blue eyes and blond hair complimented his usual dressing of a long purple jacket quite affectionately.
And above all, the two had somehow miraculously found themselves together. Together in a romantic relationship that was promised to last through the ages. They each had their issues, their pasts and unsuspecting futures. Yet they understood one another. Understood the underlying pain and soothed it the best they could manage.
But, as they do say; opposite attract.
