#claude faustus is illegitimate

Wheezing. I should have added this into Whatever Happens, but it is what it is.

Ough, I love this. Genuinely it’s so… augh.

Love it.

Many years ago, I read a fic where Claude was Sebastian’s child with William. I still subscribe to that fic idea to this very day, and I came up with—what I believe to be—the greatest line,

“So, the child wants to eat from his mother’s plate instead of his own, does he?”

for when Sebastian’s talking about Claude’s intent to steal Ciel’s soul from him. Claude’s response,

“Well, I’m sure you’ve heard that there’s nothing quite like a loving mother’s home-cooked meal.”

Sebiam and Illegitimate Claude's... Drink choices.

It’s out. Finally. And at 12k, too

Summary:

A grim reaper and a demon meet. They fall in love. And then, together, they rear their child.

+ some nsfw mentions. Nothing too graphic, though.

+ one potentially sad Grelle arc and some otherwise purposefully OOC behaviour* from all involved

Semi-decent explanation of why William and Claude are two different characters damn it.

(no backstory/lore part included)

cause I can't with this anymore istg

William info:

Personality:

William is an aloof, dignified individual who strictly observes rules and formalities and expects the same from others. He performs his duties with diligence, precision, and impartiality. He does not take kindly to those who cause trouble, particularly if such trouble forces him to apologize for their actions and work overtime.

—

Appearance:

William is a tall man with short, neatly combed dark-brown hair. Like other Grim Reapers he has chartreuse phosphorescent eyes.

William wears rectangular glasses with four decorative lines on each temple. He often dresses in a dark suit, tie, black gloves, and dress shoes.

—

Claude info:

Personality:

Claude is distinctly apathetic; he speaks and acts virtually without emotion. He does not respond to direct taunts such as Alois Trancy undoing his buttons moments after Claude fixed them.

Claude's personality drastically changes after he tastes Ciel Phantomhive's blood. He begins to covet Ciel's soul and becomes erratic and bizarre; he would dance and make doilies. Having developed a strange obsession with Ciel's soul, Claude is determined to obtain it at any cost.

—

Appearance:

Claude is a tall, bespectacled, and handsome man with short, black hair and golden eyes. He dresses in a dark suit and wears white gloves. His tongue is remarkably long; he is able to lick the bridge of his nose

Ok so. With those mini paragraphs of information we can begin. (Creds to the Kuroshitsuji wiki for the info)

—

Personality

—

First of all, William is aloof and Claude is apathetic which doesn't mean the same thing. An aloof person can be apathetic or not, it depends, and even though he acts as he does I wouldn't describe William as apathetic.

—

William expects others to follow the same rules he follows meanwhile, in part for the work place and in part for his master, Claude tends to make others obey his rules and if Alois is not around tends to not obey the rules given him beforehand as he doesn't deem them necessary. Claude also bent the rules to achieve Ciel's soul etcetera etcetera

—

Claude is very much not as impartial as William is in general, which is one of the things that distinguishes them the most in my opinion.

—

William doesn't care for hobbies such as dancing, sewing, or anything else for that matter, in the slightest. Claude instead is seen practicing more than one of them quite a few times.

—

THEIR FUCKING SPECIES. WHICH MATTERS FFS. YOU CAN'T JUST SAY "Haha demon William haha" OKAY? JUST NO. AND ALSO WHY.

...Anyways.

—

Appearance

—

William's hair is dark-brown while Claude's is black.

—

Their eyes of course. Also why tf did I see Claude drawings with red eyes, you can make the a bright pink at max. I'd understand that.

—

T h e . G l a s s e s . THEY'RE SO DIFFERENT PLEASE. Square with lines, not square with lines. BOOM. Was that so hard 😭

Plus Claude doesn't need them while William does.

—

William has black gloves while Claude has white gloves.

—

Their suit look different from one another. While Claude's very much similar to Sebastian's, Will's attire is different and more formal than the one mentioned before for the job he does.

—

The Hairstyle is different. Claude's hair is clearly messier than William's. Claude also likes to slightly play with his hair in some scenes lol

The fact that you managed to get Will and Claude looking different-

Thank you so much! I love you and this post (/p).
