I do not own Kuroshitsuji or D. Grayman. They both go to the respectful owners. This is my second yaoi-ish story because my friend asked me to do this and is slowly turning me into a yaoi fan girl. I am doing this out of impulse and I updating will vary from time to time. I have a Sebastian and Allen thing going on. It would make me happy to see more of this crossover pairing. This will be a slight rewrite of the Kuroshitsuji anime with Allen Walker in it. (Since I lost my manga version and my computer is mean when reading online scans)
WARNINGS- This crossover will contain: Slight AU, mild cursing, dark romance, yaoi, angst, gore, violence, adult situations
PAIRINGS: MAIN: Allen/Sebastian
MINOR: Ciel/Sebas, Brotherly!Allen/Ciel
NOTE: There will be not a slight hint of Yullen in this story. Sorry all you Yullen fan girls, I hate that pairing with a fiery passion.
Enjoy Lords and Ladies
CHAPTER 5: That Butler and Exorcist, an Illusion
Allen stared at his reflection in the mirror. A pair of silver succors laid on the sink's edge. Sprawled all over the sink and floor was locks of trimmed white hair. He pushed back a fringe behind his ear, musing, "Hmm, my hair has grown rather long…what a pity…I cannot trim it as I please…" the teenage butler took up black silk ribbon and tied his currently mid-back length hair in an easy smooth ponytail.
"Now then, off we go," Allen motivated himself as he put on his gloves. He straightened his jacket, his brake over and used with grooming himself. He walked down the halls, seeing Sebastian dust the library. He stopped and admired him for a moment, but couldn't help noticing a closet door was slightly ajar. He shook his head; they were still going at it. He remembered the staff meeting Ciel called earlier, one excluding Sebastian.
Allen stood up straight calmly while the other four servants who stood beside him stood a bit anxiously. Like they were trying hard to appease their master. Allen, whom done this plenty before, was relaxed, ready to take out any order his master wished.
Ciel sat there in his chair silent for a moment, his eye closed in a moment of silence and thought. Being braver then all other servants in the room he asked, "So then, what was this matter you wanted to discuss with us?"
Ciel opened his eye and stated, "There is a job I want you four to do."
For the three incapable servants, this was glorious heavenly unbelievable news. "J-o-b?" they said in pure joy. In a joyful moment they joined in a group hug, Allen chuckling a bit amused."What a relief! Being called up to the young master, I thought we were going to be fired for sure!"
Ciel then took out what looked to be an old wooden camera."This is one of the items that Talbot is said to have collected; a camera with a past."Timcampy grinned as he sat on the Earl's shoulder loyally. "I heard this long-lost item had suddenly come up at auction, and I went to quite some trouble to acquire it."
"Talcum?" Finnie repeated obliviously, which the other servants were also clueless about.
Suddenly the spotlight was one 'Real' Tanaka who had made an appearance. With a stroke of his grey moustache, the Japanese steward began the lesson, "William Henry Fox Talbot. He was an English scientist, and one of the inventors of photographic technology. There is a strange rumor surrounding the final camera he used. It says that if you take a picture of someone with the camera, then the being most treasured by that person may also be revealed in the photograph.
"The thing most important to that person?" Maylene swooned.
"And this is that nifty camera?" Bard asked as Tanaka deflated back to normal chibi Tanaka.
Ciel got behind and into the camera, "Let's take one as a test." He said. He directed it to Finnie. "Don't move. The camera takes ten seconds for the negative exposure." Ciel quickled removed the lens as Finnian stood straight for his shot.
"What's negative exposure?" Allen asked aloud.
Bard answered, "Put simply, it reflects and burns Finnie's image."
"If you don't stay still for ten seconds, it will blur and won't come out properly." Finnian started to struggle keeping still. Ciel began counting the seconds "Eight. Nine. Ten." He then snapped the lens on. "Alright."
Finnie exhaled and relaxed."It was fine to breathe, though…" Ciel pointed out to the boy. In a red dark room, the photo was processed. After wetting it and drying it out, the image was coming in. In the background, there was a bird bear Finnie's head. "Ah!" Finnie cried, "That's my little bird!"
"Huh? You had a little bird?" Bard asked.
"How cute!" Maylene squeaked.
"I gave it food every day and eventually it would come to eat from my hand,' Finnie explained picturing his little blue bird. "I was so happy, and when I pet to pet it nicely…" Finnie had used a wood sculpture of a bear as example, petting it, in which the head snapped off. "It stopped moving." He said sheepishly.
Allen was a bit disturbed. "Y-you mean it…?"
Tanaka chuckled and sipped his tea. Then in a quick spotlighted moment, Real Tanaka returned, "Ah, I forgot to mention something. The precious thing that is reflected is something that does not belong in this world." He added. "In other words, only the dead.
"Th-The dead?" Allen parroted. If he took a picture, who would come up. Perhaps a picture of Mana beside him smiling, or Lenalee waving. "By that…you mean…"
Ciel interrupted, "The most precious thing to that person which is not of this world. In other words, it means the dead will be transposed to the photograph." Allen stared at Ciel, while Bard and Maylene screamed in pure shock and fear.
"Do occult stories like that really exist in this 19th Century world?" Bard asked.
Maylene, who was into the occult, exclaimed, "How amazing! What an exceptional camera!"
Finnie, however, was in a corner, crying in remembrance of his dead bird, "Ah, my little birdie!"
Ciel handed Allen the camera, and ordered, "Take a picture of Sebastian with this camera. However, do it without him realizing."
"Eh? A sneak photo?" Allen asked, he pushed his bangs out of his eyes. "Exactly," Ciel nodded. Maylene got some steam out, and Allen blushed at a though that he and Maylene were thinking. "Wh-Who is the one that Sebastian cares most for?" he asked.
"I'd kind of like to know." Finnie added.
"That bastard is always finding flaws in my artistic cooking!" Bard growled ruefully. "He's human too!" Ciel and Allen smirked at the cook's ignorance of the truth, but continue listening to his ranting, "He must have a weak point or two! This is our chance!"
"You'll do it, right?"
The four servants gather in a straight line together, back straight, heads up, saying in a chorused unison, "Yes, my Lord!"
Then the servants chattered excitedly on saying one of Sebastian's catchphrases. "Ah, I've always wanted to say that!"
"I said it too!" Finnie cheered.
"I do it sometimes, it's really fun right?" Allen grinned. He thought wondered what the Earl was thinking, since his face was serious.
The Earl than smirked, "This will be something to see," he said softly.
The old grandfather clock chimed the sixth and the a quarter hour. The servants listened quietly as Ciel used a doll house as a way of planning. He opened it, using three toy soldiers to represent the servants, a black sheep for Sebastian, and a white horse for Allen. He had the horse and soldiers surround the sheep."At this time of day, Sebastian is normally in the library."
Thus we return to the present. Allen had taken off for his brake to finally fix the problem that was his bangs and hair. He knew it was the trio hiding in that closet spying on Sebastian. He sighed, knowing he had one option. The option of distraction. He prayed that the servants would take the hint when given.
He waltzed into the library and tossed his ponytail over his shoulder stroking it a bit. Sebastian noticed his presence and said, "You've cut your hair."
"Yes. It's been getting in the way as of late." He threw his ponytail back. "So I decided to give it a trim, before it reaches my rear." He winked, he swore he saw Sebastian blush at a dirty though that he immediately erased.
In truth, the servants were behind a bookshelf. The servants were silently chattering amongst themselves for what to do next. Allen continued to conversation, "So…um…d-do you like it like this? Long and tied up."
Sebastian smiled, "Yes, it is quite suiting you. I do like the ribbon in your hair." He complimented. Allen blushed and giggled.
Bard they realized what Allen was doing, "He's distracting him! Godspeed Allen! You're a genius! Ok guys, ten seconds."
"T-Ten seconds,"
"Ten seconds, Allen needs to keep it up for ten seconds*
"If you'll excuse me for a moment Allen," Sebastian said adjusting his glove. In a swift fast movement he began rapidly cleaning the library table. Allen and the other hidden servants gasped softly. "So fast!" He murmured as he began to quickly dust and clean the library.
"He's so fast I'm having trouble keeping track of him with my eyes!" Maylene cried quietly.
"Damn it! There's no way we can snap him like this. Allen's got to stop him somehow."
"Ah. He stopped!" Finnie pointed out as Sebastian stopped to inspect a vase of flowers.
"W-What is missing Sebastian?" Allen asked, quickly glancing at the bookcase. 'Come on you guys, take the picture.'
"Mmm…" He hummed in response. He took out a handkerchief and in a cliché magician's trick; he turned it in a snap into a red rose and placed it in the vase. He then took another cloth and made another rose, placing it into Allen's bound hair, behind his ear. He caressed his blushing cheek quickly before saying, "Excuse me Allen, I have other chores to attend to. You should also." Allen nodded, feeling a bit faint. Sebastian smiled leaving the white haired butler into a sparkling spotless library.
"Well, you guy's got it?" Allen asked moving a few books to see his companions.
"I forgot to take it." Bard admitted in a daze.
"How wonderful," Maylene swooned. Allen groaned and rolled his eyes. It would be a long day.
"Next up is cleaning various rooms."
Sebastian was replacing the tablecloth in the parlor room. Finnie's attempt was charging in with the pool table from the game room, Allen cried, "Watch out!"
In an effortless movement, like a matador of Spain, used the table cloth to make Finnie miss him, stepping to the side. Thus the pool table was crashed out of the wall with Finnie into the courtyard. Sebastian thanked Allen as he put the cloth on the table.
"Then come his daily duties in the butler room."
Sebastian was working the accounting in the butler room. The bell rang suddenly for the Ciel's office. He arrived soon later, "Come in."
"Was there something you wanted?" Sebastian asked.
"It's untied." Ciel said. Sebastian tilted his head. "Huh?" Ciel raised his head, showing his neck tie was undone.. "Understood." Sebastian then began tying his ribbon, from the outside window Bard, Maylene, and Allen (whom still had the rose from earlier in his hair), were readying the camera.
"Sebastian, your face looks wonderful in profile as well," Maylene sighed blissfully.
"Yeah, every side of him is lovely," Allen agreed. Below, Finnian was holding the latter that they were stepping on to get a good view. "All right! Now, just like that!"
Finnie counted up to 10 for the camera to be taken. Sebastian glanced out the window, which made Maylene and Bard instinctively duck. Except for Allen, who panicked and spouted, "O-Oh don't mind me! Just doing my chores like you said! Ha-Ha! La-di-dum!" he took out a cloth from his jacket and pretending to wash the window.
Sebastian opened the window and Allen backed up. Their noses nearly touched as his red eyes examined the surrounding. Allen's cheek went red. "Keep up the good work Allen." He smiled, "Let's let some air in, though." He offered. Allen glanced down to see his comrades dangling from the ladder.
The four sat outside the office, defeated. "Why do we have to go to all this trouble just to take a single photo?" Bard complained. The four sighed.
The doors opened revealing Sebastian, "There is a job I'd ask all of you to do." He began.
"Wh-What is it?" Maylene asked.
"That." The servants looked to see Pluto in dog form, pressing his enormous muzzle against the window. Allen sweat dropped, as the dog whined for him.
"What's up with the pooch?" Bard asked as Finnie smiled brightly at the beast.
"In the afternoon, we shall be receiving a guest. Please move that somewhere out of sight before then, that it will not offend our guest's eyes. Allen, it likes you best so you should contribute the most.
"Somewhere out of sight being…" Allen said as he pressed a hand to the window where Pluto's face was, with Finnie giggled up to the dog. Pluto mewled, rubbing his furry head against the window, for he beloved white-haired master.
"I will leave that up to you," Sebastian replied simply turning on heel.
"Hey, we have our own jobs to do as well," Bard piped up.
Sebastian smiled, "You can do it in between your other jobs. Just make sure it is done before out guest arrives." With that he left. Pluto yawned a bit as he left the servants naïve.
Outside in the courtyard where Pluto lived, Allen beckoned nervously, "PluPlu, come here!" Finnie tugged the leash furiously as Allen tried to console the dog. Using his strength, Finnie dragged the demon dog back, his claws digging into dirt for the tiny human to stop.
"Here, now!" Finnie said flipping the dog over. Allen gasped as he saw the dog spit fire at Finnie and grab him into his paws. Pluto then licked him and nuzzled him, Allen petted his muzzle and said, "PluPlu, be a good boy and come with Finnie…We have to…" Pluto took him in his mouth and leapt off, free from leash. Allen screamed as he was abducted.
"W-Wow! Plu can breathe fire, too!" Maylene exclaimed amazed.
"That's a Devil Dog for you." Bard shrugged."Wait. This is not time to be dawdling! Allen's been kidnapped by that dog!" Finnie was sobbing over his burn while Tanaka chuckled roasting fish over the flames.
Sebastian sat the top of the stairs that looked over the courtyard. He saw Pluto had finished chewing and licking Allen, who was now napping with the also who passed out due to stress. It was adorable to see the ex-exorcist sleep and cuddle up to that horrid beast's silver hair.
Sebastian glared at the beast who dared to use what's his as a chew toy. Even in affection. That and the servants failed in their task. "Good grief. Those three…and him…" he rubbed his head. "It would probably be better if those three were just eaten by him, as me and Allen watch from afar." He smiled at the pleasing thought of those three idiots getting eaten by the demon dog, Allen giggled as se sat on his lap as they watch them getting devoured. He could almost hear the clang of glasses filled with fine champagne as they laughed while the fire roasted the three servants.
Sebastian was taken out of his musings by a soft meow. A black cat had wandered into the courtyard, walked pass behind Sebastian. Sebastian gave a lusty smile. "Oh, my."
Another mewl awoke Pluto who nuzzle Allen. The Pluto looked up to see Sebastian caressing and playing with the cat. He chuckled in delight. He ran his fingers down the cat's furry breast, "What a supple body, and soft paws," he gave the paws a nice squeeze. He was in pure bliss, "Ah. Cats are so sublime."
In that moment, Pluto transform in a flame back to his human form. Allen shot up awake at the heat of the transformation, "Hot!" he squeaked. The naked male grabbed the dazed teen by the arm and dragged him to Sebastian, throwing the groggy boy on his lap. Pluto threw the cat out of his grip and hugged Sebastian's arm pathetically. Allen groaned, blushing, as he was sandwiched between Pluto and Sebastian's chest.
Sebastian sighed, "Why does something always interrupt?"
Meanwhile, Ciel stared disapprovingly at all the blurry failed pictures of each try. "I'm sorry, Young Master." Finnie bowed.
"But Bard has thought up a cunning plan!" Maylene squawked.
"It came to me after seeing the pooch breathe fire." Bard explained.
"Don't go using any flamethrowers." Ciel said suddenly.
"How depressing."
The door then opened, and in came Lau. "Earl!" he waved cheerily.
"Master Lau!"
"What did you come here for?" The earl asked curiously.
"I heard something interesting was going on." The oriental man grinned.
"Go home." Ciel snorted.
"Don't say such cold things. Leave this to me. I may also need the assistance of Allen Walker-san." Ciel looked to him inquiringly. "The spider's web has already been woven" he pet the figurine of the sheep. "The more you struggle, the harder it becomes to escape from those bonds." He said portentously. "Whatever the prey, once they get involved with me, catching them is only a matter of time."
Ciel glared at the Chinese lord. "All right. You may go, and you have permission to use Allen as well. However, I will not tolerate failure. No matter what."
Lau grinned, "But of course. If I sullied the Phantomhive name, I'd be ejected from this country, after all." Then in a moment of obliviousness "So, what are we doing?" Groans of defeat were heard.
A carriage pulled up, the guest had arrived. Waiting for him at the door was Sebastian, who welcomed him dutifully. He bowed as the guest introduced himself, "I am Paul Jones of the Brit Business Company."
"Mr. Jones, we have been awaiting you arrival. This way please," Sebastian led him inside. Behind a pillar was Lau and Ciel. "And so it begins," Lau said calmly.
Sitting on the railing of the top of the stairs was Ran-Mao and Allen. Ran-Mao on one side, and Allen sitting on the other side of the symmetrical staircases. Allen was in a sexy red Chinese peony dress, black thigh length stockings, his long white hair in buns, his legs crossed. Paul Jones had his attention of Ran-Mao, drooling over he sexiness.
Sebastian was about to snap Paul out of it from his blushing daze, before he noticed Allen. A blush appeared on his pale cheeks and he took in the sight. Those shapely lean legs, that short peony dress, that pale neck just ready be kissed and made red by his teeth and lips. Allen blushed as he felt the lustful gaze upon him, he wondered
"What is with that? Making my butler dress up so obscenely, only to find out…" Ciel growled blushing a bit.
"Oh, how strange. To find out your head butler plays for the other team, and has an interest in Walker-san." Lau sighed. "At least it made that butler stop and look at him for a second."
I am an idiot for believing in you for even a moment. I do not need to know my most trusted butler has a thing for my other butler. This is unwanted information."
"It's too early to give up yet." Lau stepped over and made hand signals to the servants. Finnian and Maylene started fanning them both, making their skirts rise up while Bard readied the camera. Paul blushed and Sebastian felt his body tingle, trying to tear away his gaze from Allen.
Bard tore his own gaze from Ran-Mao and aimed the camera at Sebastian who finally snapped out of his lust. He quickly Allen threw him over his shoulder, Allen was blushing, he then called out, "Mr. Jones?"
Jones turned tore his gaze as well, "Oh. Oh, yes!" he sprinted up to the black butler.
"Ah, how strange," Lau hummed.
"What a waste of time," Ciel growled shaking his head.
"At least we found out your butlers are g-"
"Shut the hell up!"
Inside the dining room, Sebastian stood by Jones with Allen who was still embarrassed on still wearing the dress Lau forced him into. "There is the Executive Director of Funtom Company Mr. Tanaka." Sebastian said.
Across the table was 'Real' Tanaka, who chuckled. The man smiled, "Well then, I shall begin my questions immediately."
Outside, the three servants and Lau sat waiting for the dealings to be over.
"You got to admit Walker-san looks as cute as a girl in that outfit." Lau said randomly. The servants looked to the Chinese man oddly, but remained silent. "I wonder what the earl is doing all on his own." He piped up again. "Is he sulking?"
"He said he wanted to think on his own for a while but…" Maylene mumbled worried.
"The young master is pretty serious this time." Bard sighed.
Sebastian turned for a moment, Allen looked at him strangely. Had he sensed something out of place, because the demon butler smirked. Allen felt his pentagram on his forehead throb a bit, he pressed it numbly, hidden under fringes of white.
"Next, can you please tell me what the Funtom Company's business strategy is from here on out?" Jones said suddenly. Sebastian looked to man. Allen looked to Tanaka, who was struggling to keep his 'real' form.
Sebastian answered for Tanaka, "Currently, our company specializes in toy manufacturing and confectionery as its principal business. However, from here on out, we will expand into other areas as well." The man scribbled what Sebastian said. In a puff of smoke, Tanaka went chibi, Allen sighed.
Sebastian slammed his hands on the table. Making Jones and Allen give him all their attention. "At the present moment, our company…"
"Yes?"
"…is proceeding with its plan to widen its business within Europe. To begin with, we will expand with new branches in Paris, Vienna, Berlin, Rome, Amsterdam, and Athens. In addition, within the next five years, including those in North America, we plan to have a presence in 30 countries." Sebastian explained. The man struggled to keep up writing what Sebastian was saying. Allen's head was spinning with all this business talk. "Also, in Provence, in the south of France, we plan to have a sweet factory, and in Salzburg, in Austria, we will build a toy factory. We are working very hard to ensure there are ample quantities of all products."
Tanaka chuckled calmly. Then epically Sebastian announced with determination, "The Funtom Company is always striving to maintain and improve the quality of all products under out brand! Using stale materials or reusing unsold products is blasphemy!" Allen applauded, tears in his eyes. "Only products that have gone through rigorous testing multiple times are allowed to be part of the Phantom line and released into the cities." Jones kept on writing as fast as he could.
Allen stood by Sebastian side as he continued, "Also, our company motto is: "The customer is always right". No matter what remote land they hail from, we shall be there to assit them with our products at a moment's notice! That is the Phantomhive way! Right?" he smiled charmingly and winked at Allen.
Allen blushed and yipped, "Right! The Phantomhive way!" Jones rushed to match the speed of Sebastian's writing.
"That is all." Sebastian finished. Tanaka chuckled once the speech was done. Jones wiped the sweat from his brow. "Th-Thank you very much. The last thing I need now is a single picture."
"A picture?"
Jones took out a camera. "If possible, with you included as well. And maybe the little white haired girl."
"Boy." Allen immediately corrected Jones. "I'm a boy."
"I must decline." Sebastian said, he pulled Allen close into an embrace. "I am just one hell of a butler, after all."
Jones left that day, feeling empty inside. That and he noticed that the one hell of a butler liked a little white haired boy who was wearing dress.
"Today, I have prepared the Devil Dog Cake from out trip to Houndsworth," Sebastian presented. Allen had changed back into his butler clothes, much to Sebastian disappointment. Allen placed the tea by the plate of cake.
Ciel picked up a piece of the cake with his fork, "Why is there something like this…" he took a bite of it.
"It seems that Bard and the others bought an insane quantity of it," Allen shrugged. "They're quite yummy.
"How did the article go?"
"Tanaka showed his formidable strengths as company president," Sebastian informed.
Ciel smirked. "I see. Well, it's not like I can be the face of the company at present."
"Yes. There was a photograph taken at the end as well." Sebastian grinned.
"A photograph?"
Allen nodded, "Yes. Lately, it seems that having a photographic portrait accompany as article is the fashion."
"I see."
"Young Master, how about having one taken as well?" Sebastian asked. Allen stared surprised at him.
Ciel scoffed, "Nonsense." He took another bite of cake.
Sebastian softly chuckled.
The night came soon, and one could hear Pluto howling to the full moon. Outside, bushes were moving strangely. Ciel was outside as well. Finnie, outside, held a large marble statue of a headless angel. "Is this really all right?" he asked Ciel.
"It's fine. Just do it!"
"Yes!" Finnie began spinning the statue, launching it high into the air. "Allen, get into position!" Ciel ordered.
"Right!" Allen said rushing to Ciel's side, wrapping his arms around him in an embrace. Finnie crouched down and covered himself, nervous; the statue was a gleam in the sky. The angel statue came straight down, hurdling for Allen and Ciel. Ciel kept perfectly straight while his teen butler shivered.
"Young Master! Allen!"Finnie yelled. Finnie rushed to stop the statue, which were merely inches away from them. A loud crash on contact. Ciel met the ground; he looked to see Allen shielding him. Above Allen was Sebastian, whom shielded whom, on top of them. Allen's eyes widened, the statue made it appear Sebastian had the wings of a pure white angel. He giggled a bit, amused and relived him and Ciel were alright. In a split second the wings crumbled, Allen flushed realizing their face we're inches apart.
Allen felt his eyes go heavy to close, waiting for that brush of a kiss that never came. His eyes widened when sparks began to fly like a firecracker. Some of Lau's dragon statues were spitting sparks from their mouths, making it look they breathed fire.
Lau and Ran-Mao appeared from the woods, "Isn't this a wonderful scene?"
"You're late." Ciel said. The camera focused them.
"I'm sorry." Sebastian apologized. "I was making preparations for tonight's dinner." From the bushes the Maylene and Bard who was taking the picture waiting. "Today's main dish is a Rouen-style roast duck."
"I see." Allen licked his lips in delight.
"You should have ordered me to let you take it." Sebastian grinned to Ciel.
"What?" Ciel and Allen gasped in disbelief.
"Whatever you order me to do, I will do right away," Sebastian said proudly with a kind yet snide grin.
Allen was flustered as Ciel pouted and looked away, "What are you talking about? He was in denial.
Lau smiled, "Aren't you going to go and see, Earl?" he swore he could smell smoke from here.
Ciel said nothing looking out the window.
Pluto, in human form ran down the halls after doing his masters' bidding. Burning the servants and ruining the taken photo. The demon man-dog sat in front of Sebastian, who had Allen clinging to his side. Allen smiled and kneeled down to Pluto petting him, cooing, "That's a good boy." He gave Pluto a treat, which made the demon man-dog content. He began chomping the big biscuit as Allen got up and clung to the demon butler's side smiling. "Just as you asked, I got Pluto to destroy it. After all the trouble I went through," he play pouting.
"I'm sorry you went through so many obstacles," Sebastian adjusted the rose in the boy's white hair. "Such a tedious task the master has given you, you were such a good sport though, it was worth seeing you in that adorable outfit," He looked back. "He was once again concocted a most elaborate prank."
"Sleep outside at night," Sebastian instructed Pluto. Allen nodded to the demon dog as his approval and Sebastian led him away. Pluto whined as he saw his masters' go.
It was ten, and the butlers came into their master's office. "Excuse us, it is time for bed," Sebastian informed. Allen smiled softly as he saw Ciel had dozed off in his chair again. "Sleeping out here like this…How sloppy," Sebastian critiqued. "That aside, it would seem that the number of unnecessary jobs has increased again."
"I think it's kind of cute," Allen said. He noticed that accursed camera on the desk. He smiled to Sebastian, "You want to…?" he offered.
Outside, Pluto in human form clung to Ciel's office window, howling and whining to get in.
The staff gasped in a messy kitchen. "Sebastian got transposed!" Finnie said. Bard was holding a fully printed and imaged picture of a sleeping Ciel, a smiling Allen and Sebastian at both of Ciel's sides, Pluto clinging to the window in the background, and Timcampy on Ciel's head.
"So the, the one who is most important to the young master is Sebastian, Allen, and Timcampy?" Maylene guessed.
"So, that's how it is," Bard commented.
"They're really close friends!" Finnie exclaimed innocently.
"The young master and Allen are my rivals," Maylene muttered determinedly. "What should I do?"
"Ah! PluPlu!" Finnie pointed out the man-dog that was sticking to the window in the picture.
Bard pressed a finger to his temple, "Which means…"
"So, the one Sebastian cares for the most is Plu?" Maylene cried rubbing her head.
"Is that true?"
"Or is it really the young master? Or maybe even Allen!"
"Ah! That's right we haven't though about who's precious to Allen…maybe Timcampy?"
"M-Maybe! But perhaps Allen is the young master's precious one, or Sebastian. Or Sebastian is Allen precious one or the young master is his precious one!"
Outside, Pluto yawned sadly from a bad night's rest.
"Which is it?" Bards asked confused.
Inside the dining hall, Ciel was having breakfast with his two butlers, who were catering to his every whim. "I'm honored," Sebastian said cheerily.
"Shut up,"
Allen smiled, "It is your own fault for leaving yourself defenseless while asleep."
"You bastards,"
Sebastian then said calmly, "The image reflected in a picture is but an illusion. However, even if it is an illusion, wishing to hold onto it is one of the hollow dreams humans have." Ciel said nothing for a moment, glaring at Sebastian. Allen smiled calmly, pouring more tea for his master.
Outside, Pluto was chasing Maylene and Bard around, spitting fire at them. Finnie was sitting by a tree, relooking at the photo. He realized something, "But wait. Wasn't that camera only supposed to transpose things like my little birdie?" he titled his head baffled. "Why is Sebastian transposed?"
He stopped his wondered to by the call of his coworkers who were still being chased by a ferocious demon dog. Finnie got up and pile drove Pluto into the ground. He smiled blissfully, "Well, whatever!"
And done! Just before the new year! Yay for filler chapters! Especially one filled with fan-service. I'm going by the anime so fillers are to be expected. I always wondered what Allen would look like in a Ran-Mao outfit. Which was the kind of outfit he wore. And a good look of average days in the Phantomhive manor with Allen.
I WANT FANART!
THAT IS ALL
*RIDES OF ON CHARIOT OF YAOI*
