SHOW US ALL OF YOUR DEEP DARK SECRETS!!!!

(Your Ocs 🥺)

YAY YIPPIE HOORAY!!!

This is Ciel and his sentient book named Book.

I haven't made an official reference for either yet BUT time to talk about them!!!!

Ciel is 21 and transmasc who has been sorta on the road investigating his mother's disappearance since he was around 16. He had a shaky relationship with her but he's trying his best to find her. He named himself after the protagonist in his mother's unfinished story.

He's pretty stoic emotionally and has difficulty talking to others. He's got almost no social skills from being an outcast in school and then his only companion being a literal talking book.

He tends to do things in a dangerous way, frequently breaking into confidential places and stealing information that could help him find his mother.

He found Book shortly after his mother disappeared.

Book is... annoying. He yaps alot. He's the complete opposite of Ciel. He goes by many names, even going so far as to call himself Einstein or Edison because he believes he's just that smart.

And he is smart, but that's only because when he consumes other books, he gains the knowledge from them and can recite anything he eats perfectly. He's like a library in a single book. But because of this ability he believes himself to be the smartest being on the planet. Ciel often makes fun of him for it.

He has a preference for rare and antique books.

He often bickers with Ciel, but has come to care about him and sometimes even acts as a caretaker. He doesn't USUALLY eat people but if Ciel were in trouble....

He also talks like an old man

They love eachother dont worry

gah I love how their relationship is a performance, toxic but kind of sweet, so fake yet so real all at once

The scene with the meeting with Jamil in book 4🐍

Jamil would be very careful when using his magic next to the Professor☝️

Finding this image so interesting because Sebastian lets himself be photographed.

Ciel does not see Sebastian as his father.

He is actively repulsed by the idea and Yana has shown this explicitly at least twice: once in the Circus Arc and again in the Murder Arc.

I know there’s a significant segment of the fandom who genuinely believes that Ciel wanted to have Sebastian to replace his dead father, but I disagree strongly, not only because of the above, but also because Yana has shown us that OC was much closer with Tanaka than Vincent.

Besides, if you look at the revisited contract scene from ch 138, it almost seems as if Ciel is not thinking of replacing Vincent when he makes the decision to accept Sebastian’s offer, but in fact is looking for a new protector to replace RC, his dead twin.

It’s impossible to talk about this moment without the gorgeous full-page series from the chapter.

Sebastian offers the contract. Ciel recalls his brother promising to protect him. He gazes out at his brother’s corpse and realizes that his only way forward now is through making a pact with the demon. His brother’s soul is gone already, as is his life.

So Ciel becomes his twin. He takes Sebastian on as his new shield for his revenge. Sebastian may be someone that Ciel relies on, but he is absolutely not his new father figure.

The Book of Atlantic is so great!!! Literally the best Black Butler animated content so far (I haven't seen the boarding school arc yet, but I'm pretty sure it can't surpass that).

Lizzy is the best girl. I liked her before, but this is a whole different level.
