Hana emerges from the lake like something out of a horror movie, sopping wet hair covering her face and hunched back. Under her arm is the limp figure of Ciel. Sebastian can only stare as she floats in eerie silence to the boat in which he is waiting.
"What have you done…" he murmurs quietly. She deposits the drowned boy onto one of the rowboat's seats. The demon trio row them to shore in what could have been an eternity for how long it feels. The boy isn't dead, but it almost seems like…
"OH MY GOD WHAHTH TFUCK IS—" Ciel sits up in a panic, unaware of his surroundings. He sucks in air and is confused. "I'm not… drowning."
"Young master."
Ciel sees Sebastian. "Sebastian! Wh…" he looks around some more.
"What the hell am I doing on this boat again, I thought we already— wait a minute."
He sees Hana and the three amigos.
"Oh no. Oh no no no no. Oh god. I thought that was a dream. That was real? That shit really happened?" His eyes are wide. He clutches Sebastian's shoulders and shakes them, looking up at him in distress.
"Is the seal still there, Sebastian? Is the contract still there?"
Sebastian sees the purple ring and pentagram still inscribed on Ciel's eyeball. "Yes, my lord." But…
"You're a demon now Ciel" Hana says. She's running her hand through the water. This shit makes no sense. How could it end like thi
"Umm…" Ciel looks from Hana to Sebastian, and back. "Excuse me? Did some shady deal go on behind my back or something?" Man I really need to stop passing out for these things...
"I did not go behind your back this time, sir." Sebastian responds politely. "Hana here and her… contractee… have requested the transformation."
Ciel chokes a little. "UM, but that means LAST TIME, you— "
"You might be wondering how this is possible?" Hana interrupts. She looks bored out of her mind.
"Well, I suppose so, among other things…"
"The process is actually simple!" Sebastian points out cheerfully. He loves explaining. "First, the—"
"Will you shut up!" Hana now looks more ired than tired. "God! Now, what I was going to say was—"
"—probably too inflammatory for the young master's ears. I cannot in good conscience allow him to be subjected to such language! As his butler, I am responsible for—"
"—nothing! Absolutely nothing! I don't know how that godforsaken contract is still in place, given how blasé both of you fuckers have been about the terms you set down, but I'M the one who—"
"—needs to stop it with this gag!" Ciel interjects, shaking his head furiously. "I don't even care anymore! I'm a demon now, so what? Not like anything else in my life makes any bleeding sense!"
With that, the boy rises to his feet and dives off the side of the boat. Sebastian catches him around the middle before he goes sleeping with the fishes and hauls him back on board.

Hana's glowing eyes fix Ciel in place. She speaks. "You're a demon, Ciel."
After a few stunned seconds, he responds. "I'm a what?"
"A demon, Ciel."
"A demon?"
"Yes, Ciel." She sighs. "You're a demon."
"No, I'm not. I'm… just Ciel."
"Well,'Just Ciel' . You're a demon!"
"But I'm just Ciel!"
"No!, 'Just Ciel,' you ARE a Demon!"
"Listen here Hana! I'm just Ciel!"
"NO! Ciel, you are a DEMON."

"Ciel, this music…" Lizzy is grimacing. "It's creepy…"
Ciel sweats. "Uhh! -hH!" He makes a slicing motion across his throat. Across the room, Sebastian kills the record player. "Well, you know what's always good and not creepy?! ..Cake!"
"Ciel…"
"Hmm? WhAt is it Lizzy?" his voice definitelydoesn't crack.
"You're acting really weird…"
"What are you talking about I always act this way there is absolutely no reason for alarm, and DEFINItely no reason to THINK that I, CIEL, PHANTOMHIVE, have been Magically Transformed,,, into,… a DEMON?! I ALWAYS ACT THIS WA?Y?"
Lizzy raises an eyebrow. "Like I said. Weird."
Ciel is really sweaty now. "S-Sebastian! Help!" he whisper-shouts.
"Ah." Sebastian glides across the room with the utmost grace. "I must apologize on the behalf of the young master. You see, when a boy reaches a certain age, strange things begin to happen to his—"
"OH!" Lizzy interjects. "I get it now." She smiles knowingly at Ciel, who looks about 10x as sweaty as he did before he called his butler over. "Puberty can be nasty, I know. I'm sorry I judged you. We can go do something else if you don't want to dance."
Ciel's violent perspiration is replaced by a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Lizzy." Whew.
"Do you think she bought it?" Ciel whispers to Sebastian as they exit the room.
"Honestly? Probably not." Sebastian never lies. "But I lampshaded it with all that puberty talk, so it should be fine."
"See, the thing about that is…" Ciel looks shifty. "What exactly IS puberty?"

"So," Ciel smirks, "how's it feel to be my eternal servant?"
"You're not the worst person to play butler to. Plus, I can do THIS:"
Sebastian picks Ciel up from the carriage doorstep and spins him around.
"AAAAGH! What the FUCK! You think I missed that shit the first time you did it, asshole?!" Ciel rages while being set down, face steaming in embarrassment. There are people around! People on the street! Staring! Laughing! Sebastian is laughing!
"No, no," his butler says, "it's just too good to not do it multiple times. Forgive me."
The small earl turns around grumbling. He stomps away, cane in hand. Sebastian follows.
