"What do I call you?" Ciel asks, sidestepping the question Sebastian had so carefully aimed at the soft part of his belly.

The man tilts his head. "Sebastian works well enough. No need to concern yourself with 'misters' or 'sirs'. I do not care."

Ciel glowers at him over his cup of Chamomile. "Seriously? Most adults are pressed if you speak of them without the expected respect."

Sebastian smirks. "And your vocabulary continues to surprise me. I would like to believe I'm unlike other adults, but such a phrase is so often used by those with foul intentions. So, I shall simply say I am not one who cares for such trifles."

The boy's glare doesn't fade. If anything, it intensifies. Sebastian sighs, taking a slow sip out of his own cup. "If you are, to repeat the word, 'pressed' about sticking me with some label… I suppose you could address me as Count Michaelis."

Ciel rolls his eye. "Because you're a vampire?"

I wanted to get this tag started, and I'll link this to my pinned.

FIRST CHAPTER IS OUT NOW! CHECK IT OUT!

Fanfic Summary:

Sebastian Michaelis, in an attempt to sate the lulls between worthwhile contracts, has had many jobs in the human world; chef, butler, assassin, jockey, the list goes on. Each one has helped him learn more about the intricacies of mankind, which in turns helps him manipulate them better.

Some years ago he decided to try fostering; helping broken children gave him better insight of modern man, and how best to manipulate them once they reach adulthood (as children souls are tasteless and lacking). He plans to find them as adults, many years down the line, to break their trust with him and devour their souls the moment they shatter. But then he’s placed with the most complicated boy he’s ever seen—a boy named Ciel—everything changes. Why does he genuinely want this child to heal? To succeed? To smile, to laugh, to live a long life and pass away peacefully.

Is this what humans call feeling “paternal”?

Oh. Oh, oh no.

Modern Days with Demonic Solutions! Consider it an Alternative History of modern day, as I would rather die than try to have it be exactly like the present. If I was forced to put an idea of a "year"... the Switch 2 has not been announced yet but Repo and Peak, the multiplier games, exist.

I hope that is as confusing for you as it is me. I am not here for super mega realism. I want to have fun and hopefully other people will have fun as well <3

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This was a doozy to start, and woo boy am I already having fun planning out the next chapters!

Chapter Two is currently being drafted.

Chapters Three to Six are planned, but need to be outlined.

Goal is a chapter a month. They will be long. I would apologize but honestly? It's good practice for me and I'm having fun which is what matters most to me.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My goal with this story is to show the nastier aspects of the trauma stemming from CSA, especially when seen in children. I noticed that many fanfictions tend to shy away from the more "messy" reactions or are more careful when discussing the horrors Ciel went through.

I love those fanfiction, I truly do, but sometimes I need something that punches me in the gut. Too many of the ones that might take a more messy route end up being seb//ciel... and I hate that.

To give a clear explanation on how this will work... every chapter will have their own content warnings in the author's note, so take heed. Depending on how the trauma is being discussed, it will either be in a "you should read or else you're missing out" way or it will be a "this is an optional read, skipping won't make you miss anything" way.

When it comes to the second way, there will be a divider that specifically states the next portion of writing is completely optional, and it will have a clear end so you can get to the next part.

If the characters are talking about the abuse in real time, such as Ciel and Sebastian talking about an aspect of the CSA, that counts as the first way. If it's during a nightmare or flashback, it will be the second way and they will ALWAYS BE OPTIONAL TO READ!

I will never write anything super explicit; I will use metaphors and similes that get across more horrific events. That is the approach I take when it comes to my own poetry. It will still be a gut-punch, however. Please, please, please focus on your own mental health, okay?

Finny surprised at how Sebastian is with cats compared to other animals. He's often scolded for bringing snails or squirrels in the manor. and yet with cats, It feels more like a secret they share.

Sebastian is clueless to how easily he just melts around cats. He has no idea how much doing this together means to Finny. He just couldn't expect to hide his daily cat breaks from everyone forever. Especially with the feral cats population in the woods growing due to his care.

Finny has names for each one. Sebastian wasn't too fond of the names at first but lets him have his fun. He started giving Finny books to find names from and helps to give them less random names. Teaching him about common traits in cats, tho admits that they are rather unreadable creatures, they still have personalities. now instead of him naming them "egg" "leaf" "shoehorn" at the drop of a hat, they now are often plant related and fit their personalities better "lavender" "rosemary" "clove" these names now fit both of their tastes.

I feel like Sebastian didn't really consider naming the cats, finding his own name being connected to an animal already upsetting enough....but that's a dog. He likes that cats are independent and nameless (like he used to be) but he cant stop himself from calling them by their names after a while. It gives him an odd feeling of familiarity. This wasn't just the mother cat with her black and white kits, they were now Mother daffodil and her kits rosey, daisy and lily. He finds a simple, storybook like whimsy in that. and that just makes cats even cuter.
