    // do we want it to be a hush hush thing from Ciel at first or do we want to just skip to where he finds out she knows? Or heck combine the ideas and have James try to attack lily and Sebastian has no choice but to phase to his demonic form in front of lily?

    // Hmm... I think keeping them separate would be better, to allow Lily the time to comprehend and come to terms with what she saw. Something like seeing a demon transform and attack someone isn't something that most people (especially in their day and age) would be so quick to accept. So keeping them separate would be more realistic. Say she accidentally sees him transform when dealing with something, talks with Sebastian about it trying to come to terms, and then later the Prince comes. So maybe we can start where the Prince comes and is attacking and angry and perhaps you can explain what happened with Sebastian as her explaining to Ciel why she wasn't freaked out or bothered?

    //that works. I’ll probably start before James attacks to get some replies going



    Lily was sat in Ciels study. They were discussing plans for the future and what lily wanted to work on once she became queen. “Again, Like my mother, I do not want an issue with drugs or anything like that. I want to keep the country as clean and pure as possible.” She sighed. She glanced at Sebastian, back to Ciel. Of course, now knowing the city had demons around. At first after finding out, she weirdly avoided Sebastian until recently. She looked to Ciel. “Am I being too much like my mother? While I want some things to be the same I want to be my own ruler as well..”

    How she felt about her future reign as Queen had little to do with him, but he knew she needed to be able to confide in someone about her thoughts and her worries. It was nice to see that she was taking her role as Princess more seriously than in the past. Even with a King at her side, he would only be the face of the country. She'd hold the real power, truly. He knew this and everyone in England was aware of it. "However you plan to rule, Princess, will be just fine."

    Evangeline shrugged. “I still want to run it by you.” She spoke gently. She bit her lip, glancing out the window behind him. She tilted her head. She looked back at Ciel. “anyway.. how’s Funtom coming? Any new items or expansion?” She hummed. “Just curious.” Though, just before she could answer, the door was slammed open and then closed. Lily stood and turned, only to be grabbed and a knife pointed at her throat. “I knew it! I knew you had a thing for him Princess! You ruined me! Now I shall ruin you!” The males voice spoke before removing his hood. It was James. Lily was tense as could be. While she was scared, she knew Ciel would protect her. Perhaps even order Sebastian to do something. She had spent countless hours late at night speaking with Sebastian with questions and such. She gulped. “Prince Ja-“ He put the knife closer to her throat. “Quiet..” He hissed

    Ciel didn't even blink. If he had made it into the manor, where were those annoying, troublesome servants of his? He took a sip of his tea and looked at the Prince. "Might I remind you, James, you are not only in England, but you are threatening the Princess's life. I have every right to kill you, and France has no choice but to accept my reasons." Deft fingers set down his tea cup. He sat up straight, and his eye met the Prince's gaze. "Of course Her Highness is meeting with her future watchdog about her ideals and desires for the future of her country. You would know nothing about such a thing." He knew he didn't need to tell Sebastian a thing. His words from before still stood. If that blade so much as moved to nick her neck, he was to attack. However, he would most definitely turn him over to the Queen for a public shaming and execution. This was a breach in the treaty between the two countries. "Though I suppose I ought to thank you. You see, marrying you is the last thing my Princess desires, and this recklessness of yours is exactly the thing she needed to have a solid reason for Her Majesty to allow her to choose an alternate suitor."

    //lmfao I just realized I used Evangeline and not Lily. Oof. This is what happens when I use the plot over and over



    James stared at Ciel. He frowned. “Ha! Weak Ciel Phantomhive! Please you wouldn’t be able to stop me in time.” He looked at Lily. “You little b*tch.. you’re mine! You won’t ever see Ciel again.” He chuckled. Lily whimpered. She desperately looked to Ciel. She was worried. James moved to pull her closer, keeping the knife to her throat before pulling a pistol and pointing it at Ciel. “I won’t have to deal with you..” he pulled the trigger. Sebastian, of course, right there to catch it. He frowned. “That was a mistake James.” He hissed. Unlike him. He twitched, his body forming. Lily, not phased st all. James on the other hand, dropped the gun and letting go of Lily. She moved and stood at Ciels side. She smirked lightly. James began to back up, but it didn’t do anything. Sebastian immediately chuckled, a deep chuckle. “I await your decision, my lord. Spare him? Or kill him?”

    "Do as you wish. He DID attempt to assassinate myself and kidnap the Princess. I was going to hand him over to the Queen to deal with, but now I may have changed my mind. That may be too soft." For a moment he didn't even think about the fact that Lily was unafraid of Sebastian. He simply was focused on the task at hand.



    //sorry it is short

    Sebastian smirked. He nodded. “As you wish..” He chuckled. “My lord, it would be wrong for you to see my true form. Please.. close your eyes. You too, Princess.” He waited, then did what he pleased. James screamed bloody murder, but just as soon as it started, it was over. Sebastian cleared his throat, pouring some tea. “You May uncover your eyes now, my lord.” He spoke. Lily hadn’t shut her eyes. She wanted to see what he could do. She bit her lip, taking the cup of tea Sebastian handed her. “Wel.. at least I won’t have to deal with him anymore..” she muttered, taking a sip of her tea.

    Ciel, already aware of the things his butler could do, looked away. It wasn't worth it to watch them. He let out a sigh and then opened his eyes as soon as it was over. "That took longer than usual. Putting on a show for someone?" He huffed.

    Sebastian sighed. “Apologies my lord. I will do better to not take so long..” he glanced to lily. “Are you alright Princess?” He asked. Lily bit her lip. “For the most part..” She shrugged. “My ears are ringing from the gunshot..” She sighed. She looked to Ciel. “Are you alright?”

    It only took Ciel a few more moments to realize what felt innately wrong. His eye snapped to Princess Lily. "You...?" He wanted to smack Sebastian. She had to know, if she wasn't freaking out. "What is going on with the two of you?" The young Earl asked, rather suspicious of the whole ordeal. He was attempting to mask his unease.

    Lily tensed. “You didn’t tell him..?” She asked. She looked to Sebastian, who shook his head. Lily sighed. She turned to Ciel. “I’ve.. known about Sebastian. For.. quite a long time now. I’d say several weeks.” She bit her lip. “I.. thought Sebastian would’ve told you.” She began. “I don’t remember the day but.. I was coming here to apologize for the way id been acting.” She bit her lip. “But.. the manor was being attacked and.. Sebastian changed.. and..” She took a deep breath. “It was.. terrifying at first. That’s why I avoided him originally.. but we’ve since then had a chat and..” She bit her lip. She looked up. “I know about.. why you cover your eye. And.. I know..” She took a deep breath. “That you want revenge and what happens after. I’ve.. accepted that.” She mumbled. She hadn’t entirely. She was scared. She didn’t want to lose Ciel. She looked to Ciel.

    Ciel was completely shocked at first. No amount of a poker face could have hidden the way he felt when she told him she had seen the true form of his demonic butler. After the shock subsided, her fixated his gaze to Sebastian and glared at him. He'd ordered him to never lie to him, but to completely keep such an important bit of information from him was another thing he ought to order him to never do. "I don't recall giving you any permission to tell anyone of our contract, demon." Princess or not, Lily or not, it did not matter to him. Such information was classified and private information that was his to tell, not Sebastian's. His butler was merely a tool for his revenge. A servant. If Lily was not in their presence, his temper may have snapped much more than his cold response. Deciding he'd have to deal with that at a later time and date, he looked to Lily. "It seems as though you now know pretty much everything. Even so, it does not change anything, Your Highness. If we do not get my revenge before you are on the throne, you will still have your Watchdog, and this demon to do your bidding."
