Can you write Sebastian taking Ciel’s soul but make it as sad as you can? I need to cry 🖤
Well, I usually try to write things to make people happy, but if crying will make you feel better, then I’ll do my best. I also write requests in the order I get them, but I’ll get this one out ASAP. I hope you’re alright, Anon 💜

“Where are we?” Ciel asked as they approached the island.
“Somewhere far away from your world. I figured this would be the best place for everything to come to an end.” Sebastian said as he brought the boat to shore.
Sebastian stepped out of the boat before lifting Ciel into his arms. Had the contract still been in place, Ciel probably would have insisted that he could walk just fine and didn’t need to be coddled. However, these moments were his last, so if Sebastian wanted to carrying him, why not let him? Besides, he was so tired.
Ciel buried his face into the demon’s neck and decided to rest his eyes. He wasn’t sure if he was dreaming or not, but he thought he heard the demon say, ‘You’re still such a child,’ before using his free hand to hold the back of his head.
Part of Sebastian was glad Ciel had fallen asleep. There was a bit of a walk ahead of them, plus this gave him some time to think.
Sebastian had already decided he was going to be gentle when taking Ciel’s soul. The boy had done nothing to warrant his last moments being nothing but extreme pain and suffer that no human could even fathom. Sure, Ciel had been a brat, but he had never been cruel. Well, except for when he forbade Sebastian from keeping cats inside the manor, but Sebastian had mostly forgiven him for that.
‘Even without it, I’m still the head of the Phantomhives, and that won’t change!”
‘Stay with me… until I fall asleep.’
‘Sebastian!’
‘You can never betray me.’
‘Stay with me.’
What a child indeed.
~~~
“We’ve arrived, Young Master.”
Ciel was awoken by Sebastian voice, just like many other times. He turned his head to look at his surroundings, but kept his head resting on Sebastian’s shoulder. He hummed in response, but said nothing.
Sebastian moved to place Ciel down onto the couch-like stone, but Ciel tightened his hold around Sebastian’s neck.
“Young Master?” Sebastian asked as he straightened back up.
‘Oh no. Please, please don’t start begging for your life now. Don’t make this any harder than it already is.’ Sebastian silently pleaded.
“You didn’t tell me your name.” Ciel said, still holding Sebastian tight.
“What?” Sebastian asked, raising an eyebrow.
“On my 11th birthday, I asked you to tell me your real name and you said that you would tell me when I was older. Well, I’m not going to get any older, so will you tell me now?”
‘Well, I’m not going to get any older, so will you tell me now?’ rang in Sebastian’s head.
“What would you say to one last game, my lord?”
“I like games.” Ciel yawned. Sebastian chuckled.
“I know you do. Do you recall the poem you would ask me to read to you before bed?”
“Do you mean “The Raven?” Don’t act like you didn’t enjoy the poem too, Sebastian.”
“I never said I wasn’t fond of the poem as well, my lord. Now tell me, who was your favorite from said poem?”
“The raven.”
“And what form did I have when I first appeared to you?”
“… A raven.” Ciel answered, his eyes widening a bit. Sebastian smirk.
“Won’t you quote the raven for me?”
“Are you-?”
“Nevermore.” Sebastian and Ciel said in unison.
“Nevermore… I like Sebastian better.”
“That was rather rude of you, my lord. However, I suppose the name Sebastian as grown on me these past few years.” Sebastian said with a sad smile.
Ciel gave a small chuckle before relaxing onto Sebastian once again. Sebastian looked up at the moon. He placed his hand back on Ciel’s head.
“It’s time.”
Ciel sighed and let his grip on Sebastian loosen.
“Alright.”
Sebastian placed Ciel on the couch-like stone and knelt in front of him.
“I’m going to put you to sleep now, my lord. It will be easier that way.” Sebastian said. The ‘for both of us’ didn’t need to be said aloud. They both knew.
Sebastian removed Ciel’s eyepatch and let it fall to the ground. He brushed Ciel’s hair out of the way as he let his magic take hold of the boy.
“Goodnight, ‘Bastian.” Ciel muttered as his eyes closed for the last time. Sebastian felt a stab in his chest at those words.
~~~
“Sleep well, my lord.” Sebastian said as placed “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe on the bedside table and tucked the newly turned 11 year old into bed. The irony of the duo’s favorite poem for now lost on the younger.
“Good night, ‘Bastian.” The young Earl muttered as he feel asleep. Sebastian brushed Ciel’s hair away from his closed eyes before collecting the candelabra and walking out of Ciel’s bedroom. Tomorrow was a new day with new adventures awaiting them. There was never a dull day in the Phantomhive Manor.
~~~
“Sleep well, my little lord.” Sebastian whispered.
This day will forever mark the end of both Ciel Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis.
~~~
Well, Anon, I hope this helps. If it makes you feel any better, it made me cry. Maybe this is why I stick to fluff with light angst. 🥲
(Just to be safe, I don’t own “The Raven” or Black Butler)
Reblog to give your mutuals one of each
AO3 is back up now!! Thank goodness 😭
NOOOOOOOOOO I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIC
What am I supposed to do now??
Going back to my mixed feelings on season 2, I love the idea of Ciel becoming a demon and Sebastian being like “Well, shit, I guess I have a kid now” and them becoming a duo.
Anyways, can you imagine them making contracts now? You can’t tell me that it wouldn't be entertaining.
Sebastian: So, you wish to make a contract with us? Very well, what do you wish?
Random Person: Yeah, cool. I just want to pass my math test tomorrow.
Sebastian and Ciel: What?
Random Person: Yeah, so… I lowkey forgot that math was a thing for awhile and my brother bet $10 that I would fail and I want my $10. So can you make me pass or no?
Ciel: Well, back in my day we didn’t make contracts for such pointless things. Don’t you want revenge on anyone??
Sebastian: Not everyone can be Ciel Phantomhive. But, seriously, you’re wasting your life over a math test? Just study.
Random Person: I don’t have enough time. Do you want to eat or not.
Ciel: Kids these days.
I have so many ideas for these to a point it's not even funny.
so i made a bsd and sk8 infinity crossover...
Tik tok ATE part of my video. But you guys get the full version (oooo). You’re my favorite platform, don’t tell the others
modern AU for convenience, also long post warning
- sebastian listens to the most pretentious classical music ever created. he also only listens to music in the car. made ciel learn to play the violin or something. he hates modern music with a burning passion
-ciel says he listens to classical music to keep his dignity, but he actually listens to nightcore versions of fnaf fan songs. he would not admit this under any circumstances
-alois is very open about listening to nightcore versions of fnaf songs, however he does not have headphones and plays music everywhere. when claude got him headphones he started singing along. badly
-claude has never willingly listened to music in his life, and he does not plan on starting ever. he probably thinks alois’s fansongs are all that exists. once he listened to dubstep and it gave him a seizure
-undertaker listens to old, old rock music. the shit on your moms cassete tape in the 70s. he is the biggest music nerd you have ever seen, but he has never willingly listened to a song from after 1995 and will keep it that way
-grelle listens to the horniest pop music ever made. she listens to anime character tiktok edit audio songs. that and musicals. so, so many musicals. she probably also sings along, but sings better than alois
-william says he doesn’t listen to music, but he’s secretly a huge music nerd, especially about old music. my guy would be in band in high school. probably not a band kid, though. he hung out with the calculus kids
-ronald just listens to the radio. taylor swift fan, but only when she made pop music in like 2015. his entire playlist consists of top 40 hits. he doesn’t know what music genres are
Oh my gosh YAY!!! Can’t wait to read it
(BSD Chapter 114)
Now that it is canon that Dazai apparently was known to (at least by Chuuya) roll around on the floor when "fretting," we must act quickly and either add this crucial detail to either our on-going or future fics! Slow burns, fluffs, one-shots, everything- especially angst!!! I fully expect the next angst fic I read to have Dazai stop, drop, and roll. I will certainly be adding this to my current fic. I don't know when, but the time will come. That is all. Thank you *bows out, curtains close, etc.*
Dadbastian request: wasp in the house wasp in the house wasp in the house oh god kill it Sebastian hurry it's SWOOPING-
I cackled when I read this request 😂
~~~
Buzz… Buzz… Buzz
Ciel looked up from his paperwork, annoyed at the sound that caused him to loose his focus. A few seconds later, he heard the servants running outside of his study. The door was slightly cracked, so their voices carried into the study.
“Mey-Rin! Wait! It’s too tiny for you to use your weapons!” Finny yelled as he ran after Mey-Rin.
“But Mr. Sebastian said to kill it.” Mey-Rin replied from down the hall.
“Come on! How hard is it to catch a bloody wasp?!” Bard yelled, running past Ciel’s study to catch up with the other two.
Wasp? Wasp?! There’s a wasp in the manor?! Ciel looked to the left, then to the right. Alright, maybe the wasp isn’t-
Buzzz
Ciel looked down. The wasp was on his stack of paper work, staring right at him.
~~~
"We're so sorry! We couldn't find it!" Mey-Rin and Finny exclaimed apologetically. Bard said nothing while scratching the back of his head.
"Keep looking. It's important that the wasp doesn't come in contact with the young master. He's deathly afraid of-" Sebastian was interrupted by said young master's screaming.
“Sebastian! Sebastian, get in here! Sebastian!”
Sebastian sighed.
"Wasps. He's afraid of wasps." Sebastian said before making his way towards Ciel's study.
~~~
As Sebastian approached Ciel's study, he heard a manner of crashes and objects being thrown about. He knocked on the door.
"My lord? May I-"
"Sebastian! Get this tiny devil out of here."
"A wasp is an Earth creature, my lord."
"You know what I meant! Do something!"
Sebastian opened the door and entered Ciel's study. However, Ciel was nowhere in his line of sight.
"My lord?"
"I'm right here." Ciel said, moving from behind the now open door to stand behind his butler.
"Ah, there you are. I was beginning to worry you decided to escape through the window." Sebastian said with a smirk.
"You're not funny." Ciel said with a glare.
"It's not good to lie, my lord. Now, where is this little devil of yours?"
Ciel continued to glare at Sebastian. Slowly, Ciel lifted his arm and pointed to the wall left of the window.
"It's right there." Ciel said before quickly moving his arm back, safely grasping his butler's tailcoat.
"Oh dear, what a terrifying creature. Had it managed to sting you, I'm sure you would be in pain for days. How unfortunate that would be."
"Stop stalling and kill the little demon already!"
"Now, my lord, there's no need to drag my kind into this." Sebastian scolded as he reached for a nearby dart.
"I'm not the one who placed this fear of wasps in you. You did that all on your own." Sebastian said as he threw the dart at the wasp.
Ciel let out a breath he hadn't known he'd been holding when the dart met it's target.
"There now, my lord. Now that I've slain the ferocious beast, perhaps you would like to continue your studies? You may want to focus on your German. I'm afraid your last score wasn't up to par."
"Perhaps you would like to spend the rest of the day with Pluto. Apparently, he's been quite lonely lately."
"Really now? I'll have to have Finny visit him more often."
"You and I both know Finny visits Pluto multiple times a day. He says Pluto wants to see you."
"Well, Pluto will just have to get over it." Sebastian said, leading Ciel back to his desk.
"I'll be back in an hour to fetch you for tea. If you can show improvement on your German, perhaps I can arrange for a chocolate dessert to be served after dinner." Sebastian said.
Ciel perked up at the mention of chocolate.
"If I finish the vocabulary you gave me, I get the chocolate dessert and milk with honey."
"I thought we agreed that milk with honey was reserved for nightmares?"
"You could at least consider it." Ciel said, crossing his arms. Sebastian sighed.
"Let's see how well you do on the vocabulary first, then we'll see."
Ciel rolled his eyes, but made no further complaints.

How did I do, Anon? I hope this was close to what you wanted! <3
