I am so proud of this one. Undertaker is awesome in the manga, he shows a side of him that is yummy. So enjoy reading it as much as i enjoyed writing it!
For the love of Casket
Undertaker's smile split his face as he caressed his newly arrived mahogany casket. He was amongst his many, many boxes that would hold lifeless bodies and it pleased him to no end. He liked surreptitiously measuring people the way cat burglars case a house. The varnishing on the fine, wooden box gleamed, honey smooth and dark, and Undertaker pit his cheek to it, 'ufufu' he muttered and his sleeve passed back and forth gently.
Many thought he was mad, many knew he wasn't but he kept his reputation on like a mask. From legendary death god to funeral director but working for the queen had soured – even indirectly. He was still lethal, still had the pink book mark but in addition he liked a good laugh – quite literally - a laugh that killed the mundane life, a tickly feeling, the best thing in the world.
The door swung open to the chime of a bell.
"Ufufu, Earl Phantomhive and his butler, what do you grace this humble establishment for? Hehe, can I recommend a casket, I just received a lovely new casket that would fit your excellent butler perfectly fufu."
Sebastian eyes gleamed silently, Ciel spoke, "I'm sure my butler is flattered but no undertaker, I need some information regarding a matter."
Undertaker ducked his head inanely in the semblance of a bow – the diagonal scar across his face grey against pale skin, one lime green eye showing for a brief instant as the bangs of white hair part for an instant.
"You know my price, earl."
"Sebastian!"
"Yes, my lord – shall you wait outside young master."
Ciel stepped out and shut the door.
A second later howling laughter echoed. Ciel stepped back into see Undertaker shaking and heaving with laughter.
"Your …. Man …. Is funny ….. as usual …I'll tell you what you want," More heaving,"Fufu but first what about a casket?"
Rate and review. What do you think is Ciel's favorite thing, I was thinking tea for some reason.
