giving credit where credit is due yana's attempts at distracting us from the abysmal pacing have been impressive. 217 was dadbastian central. 218 gave us ciel in his most dapper fit yet and seb looking positively climbable. even fixed his shitty haircut too. incredible execution. we must stay focused brothers

I love how versatile dadbastian is a concept. like I think a lot of ppl look down on it because they think its a fluffy, wholesome interpretation of sebastian and ciel's dynamic which sanitises the dark tones of the manga. but in my experience Wholesome Dadbastian is mostly just a thing in memes and art/fics which are set in modern AUs. there are so many ways to portray dadbastian that aren't just strictly wholesome. for example:

Manipulative dadbastian, where Sebastian is deliberately performing a fatherly role to make ciel trust him.

toxic dadbastian, where Sebastian is raising ciel to be evil like him.

accidental dadbastian, where Sebastian has a sudden realistiation of 'oh shit I've basically become this kids father how did that happen'. I especially love the idea of this dynamic during the early days of their contract

reluctant dadbastian, where Sebastian is very much aware he's acting like a dad and doesn't really want to

angsty dadbastian, where Sebastian becomes attached to ciel and acknowledges paternal feelings, but knows that he will eat his soul anyway and feels guilt/regret over it

One sided dadbastian, which could be from either character's perspective and can tie in really well with the other interpretations. such as ciel subconsciously starting to see sebastian as a father figure, not realising that it's all just manipulation. or sebastian harbouring genuine paternal feelings for ciel while ciel doesn't see their relationship that way at all

in conclusion, dadbastian can be as dark or as wholesome as you want it to be, so it's completely fine to enjoy certain interpretations of it and discard others. but personally I will eat up absolutely any portrayal of this dynamic because I love the endless possibilities with it

May I request Ciel getting a nice Finny hug? Finny practiced "gentle" just so he can hug his favorite person! :) (And sometimes Ciel needs a nice hug)

yaah that shit cute

Opinion: the manga would be better if the boy could swear

hope I made it in the nick of time with this one! I am not certain that this makes sense in canon, but if you'll give me some space to air out the headcanons I'm starting to have about finny- such as the fact that he has a superhuman type of metabolism to go along with his strength and needs a ton of food- then I'd be happy.

so here's @blackbutlerfanweek prompt 5: food!
