Author's Note
There's something bittersweet about writing an author's note. While it's a chance for me, personally, to get to say something, it also means that the story is over. Yes, the story of Cynthia getting whisked away into the Black Butler universe is finally complete. (There is no third story in the works, sad to say.)
These past 12 weeks have been a blessing. My readers…all of you are blessings. I can't express how happy it made me to see a new comment on this fanfiction every time uploaded a new chapter. To think that so many of you would follow me week after week...it just makes me so grateful. :') I'm so happy, I was able to, in a way, "whisk" you away with my story. ^^
Story Trivia
When I wrote the first part of this fanfiction, "Whisked Away Into the World of Black Butler" I did not expect it would get half the amount of attention it got. The same goes for this story. As of now it has 38 reviews, 18 favorites, and over 2,000 views.
There are 12 chapters in this story. There are also 12 episodes in the second season of Black Butler. This is not a coincidence. I intended this to be the "second season" of Cynthia's story, thus limiting the amount of chapters to 12. I'm very curious to know of any of you picked up on this…
Originally, the chess metaphor from chapter 10 did not exist…I added that later on. (As in, moments before I posted the chapter. Yes, it really was that last minute. ^^")
When I first started writing the sequel (May of 2015) I was concerned about using a Demon Ciel…I had never written him his demon POV before, and didn't want to make him too OOC. So my goal was to make him act like Ciel, only have darker motives. In a way, I wanted it to seem as if his humanity was truly lost.
The Future…
So what's next? Well, there won't be a third sequel for this…however, Cynthia's journey isn't over. I'm planning on bringing her back in a little tale called "The Story of Lady Trancy." That fanfiction won't have any connection to this story or Whisked Away Into the World of Black Butler, but Cynthia (me) will still be the main character. Since my username is Lady Trancy, I plan on owning up to the title by telling you a story based off my feelings for Alois. I didn't just choose this username randomly, after all. ;)
Now, I do have a question for you…would any of you be interested in reading one-shots between Cynthia and someone from Black Butler? (Perhaps to help tie you over until my next long fanfiction?) I have been debating on writing one for a while now…but I don't know how many of you would be interested in reading something like that…so please, let me know.
As of now, The Story of Lady Trancy is in the works…but it is not yet finished. I hope to start posting it by April 2016. Until then, you can follow me on an Instagram account I created. My username is ladytrancy. Even though I started the IG account a while back, I only have a few posts on there. (Though I plan on being more active as soon as I gain a few more followers. ^^")
Once more, I'd like to thank you all so, so, SO much for reading my fanfiction. It means the world to me.
Until the very end,
~Lady Trancy
