Oh God Yessss! You've just made my day that much better, and it hasn't really even begun yet. I loved Ciel in this; he was much closer to his manga self (which I prefer) and, it seemed, with the constant comparison to a demon, or 'demon-child' really made me smirk on the inside, because, really, it's so true. I would have given anything for Sebastain to have heard that...XO But that's just me and my personal bias...
Favourite line was this:Adult baby boy slides around Aberline, a lurking demon, tracing a hand down the cheek so softly that if Aberline, with his rapid breath, closes his eyes, he can imagine a woman caressing his cheek. A smooth voice, crackling like a fire in his ear, lulls him in like a siren’s song as his eyes open wide, murmuring to him, confiding to him, “We are so, so easy to break Inspector. Humans are so fragile, and we cannot do anything to change that.
Thank you! I was trying to sort of allude that Ciel is a pretty pretty boy (because even in the manga they say so), and emphasize how Ciel is both an adult and a child. I feel that in a lot of ways, Ciel can't truly be identified by either; he's really truly stuck in an in-between state.
I remember also feeling a little irked that Ciel was so easily swayed by what Aberline was saying in Ep 20. If it's one thing that anime does that I don't like, it's the tendency to make every characters softer and a little more romanticist.
Please, give some more criticism. :D There's always room to improve! I'm glad you like it though! It was hard for me to express the point Ciel was getting at.
I meant that I try to give criticism but fail to see beyond the awesomeness of it. It comes from reading too much badfic. When you read the good ones, you don't see anything wrong with it anymore because of al lthe crap you've been through XD

That just...oh God. It completely blew me away.

I want to give deeper criticism, but I'm just glued to my chair.

Oh god. I read badfic, but I don't know why I read it. It's like there's nothing else to read. ><
