A/N I recently spotted (yet to read it but I want to) a short piece where Ciel discusses or demonstrates how to manage your demon. You may take this as a response to that idea. I'll post the piece when I find it again-if I find it.

Sebastian's Ten Commandments

for Beguiling Your Bocchan

Aservis Roturier

1. Midst a power struggle or when called to account by your bocchan, if you have no sensible responde or logical retort, breathe on the back of his neck or into a dampened ear and change the subject.

2. Everything you say should be a double entendre. When in doubt remember: ambiguous and sexually suggestive but always with built-in deniability.

3. Suggest by your actions you can read his mind—just don't prove it. If you feel he is drifting away from you, give him plenty of horrid nightmares, then be there for him when he wakes screaming. At that point back rubs and saccharine words can be very rewarding for everyone concerned.

4. Tell him how much of a turn-on it was seeing him trussed up like a Sunday joint (roast), how it made your demon naughty-bits go all tingly. Suggest he might like to root through your bondage and sex toy collection.

5. Remind him how delicious he smells, how hungry for his (and only his!) soul you are and/or how current happenings are going to make him just that much more impossible to resist. Convince him the wild wood surrounding the mansion is simply stiff with slavering rogue demons who'd be only too willing to steal him for themselves—hire a friend to pretend to do so if he doesn't take you seriously. A cut of the eventual 'spoils' should be adequate inducement.

6. Make opportunities/excuses to touch. Brush your hands/fingertips/knuckles/head/hair/breath (see#1) over his skin or very close to sensitive, intimate areas. Linger a bit longer than strictly necessary when dressing and undressing. Loom. Hover. Physical proximity is always a useful distraction. At least close enough your infernal pheromones can muddle his thinking. Even better, close enough he'll be able to realise how gobsmackingly well-endowed you are. Initiate him into the joys of frottage.

7. Speak graphically and frequently about sexual matters as though they were nothing special. If he resists underscore the fact that only a child would react as he does, that it's his immaturity talking. Emphasize what things he doesn't yet know. Laugh ans sneer at his ignorance in this department every chance you get.

8. Make him feel disconcerted, fearful, out of his depth, ashamed, guilt-ridden, cowardly, ignorant, filthy, ruined, CHILDISH.

9. Smirk. Smirk all the time. It not only makes people wonder what you've been up to, it also makes them worry about what you're getting up to next and what you're thinking.

10. If all else fails, always remember to keep adequate amounts of laudanum, cocaine, belladonna and Spanish fly on hand.
