    Summary

    Beneath the polished surface of Christ Church College, something ferments.

    Ciel Phantomhive arrives under the guise of academia, tasked with keeping a low profile, and uncovering what's gone quietly and violently wrong.
    As he digs for secrets beneath the collge's impeccable facade, he finds himself toeing the line between neutrality and falling victim to anger.

    With Sebastian always one step behind - or ahead - it's hard to tell wether he's being protected, provoked, or played.

    --------------
    ira - the sin of wrath: the red bloom behind the eyes that bursts into a wildfire, consuming reasoning and leaving behind only the sharp ache of ashes and ruin.

    Summary

    “You can’t run from it now,” he said. “You have a reputation.”

    “I poisoned a creek and set a field on fire. That’s not something to earn ladyship for.” Verily, last she checked, it was not.

    He hummed. “It won us the battle.”

    Maomao clicked her tongue. “That’s just chaotic improvisation.”

    She glanced down at her hands. Still trembling. Still stained with nightshade and the explosive powder from the bombs. The bowstring had left a red, angry welt on her wrist at the final shot. She hadn't even noticed.

    “You’re not the first warlord to start that way,” Gaoshun said. There was something steady in his voice, something oddly kind.

    Summary

    “He sleeps through fevers,” the caretaker said with a warble in his voice that had nothing to do with age. “Then wakes speaking in riddles.”

    “That could describe half the nobility,” Maomao muttered and took in the freckles on the boy’s nose.

    Summary

    Suddenly, out of nowhere, she hears it. One person's soft voice, barely audible against all the noise. She hears it a little more clearly when the person approaches where she's standing.

    "Have to get something to write on," the person mumbles, more to herself than anyone else. It's a young girl's voice, calm and steady in a way Inner Court personnels' aren't usually. "Then, how to send it..."

    In another version of reality, Loulan meets Maomao first. An AU with spoilers for LN 4.

    (May 2025 edit: this one has a chapter 2, now!)

    Summary

    Haruto freezes just as Theo does, and for a long, long minute, they just stare at each other. Theo can hear his heartbeat thumping wildly in his chest. He wonders if this is what it feels like to have a crush, or care about someone in that sense.

    (or, Theo thinking about Haruto during that first month in the Giad Federacy.)
