From childhood’s hour I have not been
As others were—I have not seen
As others saw—I could not bring
My passions from a common spring—
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow—I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone—
And all I lov’d—I lov’d alone—
Then—in my childhood—in the dawn
Of a most stormy life—was drawn
From ev’ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still—
From the torrent, or the fountain—
From the red cliff of the mountain—
From the sun that ’round me roll’d
In its autumn tint of gold—
From the lightning in the sky
As it pass’d me flying by—
From the thunder, and the storm—
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view—

[ This was someone Shinou was looking forward to spoiling. In the past months, he has grown rather fond of Ciel. The boy definitely seems to understand him, or at least gives him the feeling of being understood. He was good person who just... has been dealt a difficult life.

Shinou didn't sign his name to the huge box that Ciel received, but the theme he'll notice from it, well... it might be obvious to Ciel just who gave him this box.

Inside he will find a long warm cloak, colored in yellow, and black. The back of the cloak has little bee wings that stick out and it even has a hood that was detachable. The hood resembled a cute bear, making the wearer of the clock resemble a terrifying creature. That isn't all that's in the box though. He'll also find a rather large stuffed animal of the terrifying creature, big enough to hug or sleep upon. ]

(The cloak will never be worn in public, but Ciel might be snuggling up in it when he goes to bed. The stuffed animal will also, curiously, find its way into his bed. It will replace Ciel's favorite pillow - his "guard" against nightmares.

Surely such terrifying creatures can protect him while he sleeps.

A few days later - not quite on Christmas - a box will be delivered to Shinou's door. It is filled with Funtom sweets and even a plush rabbit dressed like a certain little Earl.)
