Chapter Text

Hi, let's start with something simple, personal headcanons or my preference

I tried to not mega ship any of them (although they are way too obvious so I will not slander their dynamics--- ehem ehem, looking at you, Livion) but I will constantly joke and imply them (like the canon comic---)

I like the Dad and Mom of the groups tropes:

Charles and Albert (My die on hill duo)

Gion and Livio (especially with Anu on the few latest volumes K47, K48, etc)

 

I will put spoiler and note on each oneshot/chapters/all my fics if they contains spoilers from the canon comic

For example: 

"This oneshot will contain spoilers till K48"

"This fanfic will contain spoilers till K38" (I actually have this fanfic idea since last year; be aware Albert and Albert fans point at you) (Pls tell me other Prince Albert fans exist) 

 

I know some of you don't read Author Note (or this chapter thing) so I will put it at the beginning and summary of the fics/chapters incase some of you mind spoilers, I don't blame you, there are a lot of volumes.

What is skitfic you wonder?

Basically just interaction and chatfic but not done in social media. It is a term I made up myself because I heavily think my humours are based on Youtube skits.

 

I like them pranking and trolling each other. without much overreaction aftermath except comedic ways (K1-K20 vibe) (Albert and Ciel relationship beyond that cringes me)

 

 

Charles and Albert please come back to me, Albert and Alexis duo too

<<< Because this, I shall now insert these duos in lot of my fics, while also not making them steal the spotlight if it is another duo centric

 

Yes, most of my work in this fandom will be duo centric

Let's get into character headcanons or overwrite now:

The brightest skins to darkest skins (Main group only sorry)

Shintarou (lmao, nub, touch grass, you getting the Boboiboy Solar treatment from me, 100 diseases) <<< Ciel (bro has 7 (Boboiboy Elementals reference---) or six aircons in his room) <<< Albert (He doesn't look much of an outside person to me) <<< Leon (nerdddd but he did garden and stuff) <<< Alexis (average) <<< Gion (still fair skin, but darker tone) <<< Livio (he is bodyguard, I assume he had done many outside jobs) <<< Charles (maybe insert American golden tan trope since he is a stereotype in the first place) <<< Felix (he plays outside a lot plus he doesn't look the type to wear sunscreen or anything) 

To be honest, they are a lot characters, it is hard to keep track

Now personal characters headcanons and delulu:

Albert:

canon information first:

• 16 year old rn at September 2025
• a Prince of United Kingdom
• his birthday is on 19th September (SEPTEMBER BABYYYY, A VIRGO)
• have bright brown hair and deep purple eyes (In earlier volume, his purple eyes can be seen as grey or brown too, yes, I care and notice)
• his most screentime duo is with Ciel and canon shipped with Lilian (still is not in relationship or date yet so far) 
• He is superstitious and believe in bad luck, he even deny his friends' visit and call during New Year due to his belief (I AM GLAD THEY PUT THAT TRAIT BACK IN K41) 
• In earlier volumes, Albert is stubborn and mostly frowning, he has stranger issues (Aka he is skeptical of Lilian at first), and had been described "Albert always speaks what is on his mind so it is weird he is quiet now"  (yes that is Charles' line) but lately they turn him to be a more kind-hearted and gullible person, focusing on his nervousness to speak up (reverse character development ahh)
• His relationship with Ciel has also become more dramatic and emotional, and more developed in K34
• He lost his sassiness and troll (I am sad)
• SPOILER K35: In this volume, Merlin, Albert's current and new bodyguard makes an appearance. He is tall, big and have obvious red brownish/maroon hair and purple eyes, making it hard for him to sneak and stalk around the school, so he was given a secret identity and be the school PE teacher to keep a look out on Prince Albert. He is very affectionate and caring to Prince Albert, always offering helps to the point of Prince Albert accused of bullying a teacher to do his amends, he even had sneaked into Prince Albert's room somehow and tucked his blanket (R.I.P Prince Ciel that got accused). In K37, after Prince Albert being submitted to hospital due to K36, Merlin became a guide and also bodyguard to Albert in his dream when he was in a coma, helping him to escape from his sickness and boost his confidence to call for the last immune system to kill the germs (who were in the form of the main princes and Alexis, with Prince Ciel being the most noted).

Now the delulus:

• He takes turn to cook lunch for gang (Felix makes dinner)
• he is still Mum of the group (I am totally still not stuck in the past)
• he still hangs out with Charles and Alexis a lot, having Mum-Dad-Child trio (Guys, I---)
• he is cool and composed during individual performance or teamwork related projects with strangers but when paired up or teamed with his best friends and people he cares about he fumbles and becomes a nervous wreck (especially with Ciel, I wonder why)
• Charles and him have older brother and younger brother duo to me, especially in K9 and K12, hshshshshshs
• I love Albert and Alexis duo because back then Albert is portrayed as stubborn and sucked up know it all, Alex being there really balances his nature, and also develops him as a better person, while Albert priorities Alex and seems to remember Alex's favourites and personally cares him
• His backstory, I expect much more for him but eh this is still a teen comic series. I always see him being so caring about Alexis and Mum of the group because he had parents issues (which is technically true) and it is his nature to become the opposite of his home experience with or without realising (you can immediately what type of writer I am). In my fanon, his parents 'might' be more abusive. 
• His reputation and facade to his fanbase is remarkably as someone who is calm and well-behaved, polite, but inside his friend group we all know he is a dork and a boyfailure
• He used to have astrology and zodiac signs phrase, he is now quite ashamed by it, but it still didn't stop him from judging and going "oh, he is Cancer" in his head whenever someone told their birthday and stuff. 
• He also studies MBTI and silently judged and categoried people into those fields. And yes, he have a whole PDF file and notebook of his friends and other princes about it
• K39 does not exist.
• Due to K30, Albert has an irrational fear of being forgotten and having to restart relationships with his friends. He knew it would unlikely for his friends to gain amnesia, but he couldn’t help it. Blame it all on a certain Egypt prince, ehem ehem (Aw man, won't it be really terrible if an author decided to use that plot and make his two blonde friends lose memories of him? Oh sheesh)
• His love language (platonic and romantic( is definitely quality time together (ehem ehem, him making all excuses to meet Lilian)

The status thing:

Health: 7/8 (bro has a whole dedicated volume about his immune system, cannot give max)

Stamina: 6/8, 10/8 when angry at Ciel

Speed: 6/8 

Stealth : 4/8 (he's terrible)

Strength: 7/8 angry Strength: 8/8

Knowledge: 6/8 (you're kinda dumb)

(it is so funny writing Albert description and having my autocorrect trying to turn my English to American English)

Charles:

canon

• why are you a Gary Sue now
• 16 years old so far
• His birthday is on 2nd October (Funfact: 2nd October is the International Day of Non-Violence in honor of the birthday of Mahatma Ghandi, one of the most influential political activists of all time.)
• AMERICA!!! EAGLES EMOJI EAGLE EMOJI
• He was before a prince but changed into the president's son
• Blonde, bright blue eyes
• Usually he and Alexis are a duo, but recently they focus on his rivalry with Anubis
• He and Gion used to be rivals, but after K17, K18, K25, etc and K38, they started to trust each other and learning more to frenemies, claiming each other as good and observant opponents, Charles is more focused on Anubis now.
• He is shipped with Carla (Ciel's younger sister) canonly
• Before K16, Charles's two face mask was not displayed yet and started making a big change and development on him since. He put up naive and peaceful mask to lure others while actually being too observant and sharp minded, having a high detective skill and more aware than other princes, including SPOILER K23 figuring out his bodguard Raven's existence and making a conclusion that other princes and Alexis also have their bodyguards, in K38, he figured out Quentin and James' true identity, using their help to rat out Shao Long on his lies. Raven is a small man who has dark black sharp hair and eyes, he is usually dressed in black outfits, having no second identity and just hiding around the academy to keep an eye on Charles. He and Charles have phone contact of each other and Charles had called and messaged him on multiple occasions. Charles has also shown suspicion on Albert's bodyguard, Merlin, making him other bodyguards be alerted of him.
• I think bro has almost drowned a kid as a kid (K44)
• K16 spoiler: Most of his backstory comes in Shao Long debut volume, where it shows bro has been a self-made body shield and peacemaker maniac since he was a kid. Shao Long pretended to offer him a handkerchief, but he was actually there to snarl at Charles for stopping his fight with another person and caused him to get punished. (YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS PLOT TWIST WHEN IT CAME OUT, my friend thought this volume was not that good but it's definitely one of my fav (The cover carries too)) Technically, Shao Long was already about to punch him, Charles just finished the thing he was distracted from (I wonder what would have happened if the two passengers were not there, would they just bicker a bit then Shao Long would take his leave? hmm) Anyways, that is basically the main cause of any Shao Long related volume

fanon and delulu

• Idk if it is all a facade but you are still a dork to me, you still like reading and watching comics and cartoon to me, specifically the alien and space related
• You are smart alright, detective smart, not academic and street to me
• Your relationship with Albert definitely still exists (I am gonna be honest, it hurt me at K18 when he referred Albert as idiot, even if he called everyone including Alex that too). When not being trioed by Alexis or having to be the parents of the group, you two share the dynamic of older brother to younger brother. Although Prince Albert knows and friends with Prince Ciel longer, Charles is the first person he seeks out for opinion, advice and sharing secrets: Ciel is shown in his and Carla's backstory mini spoiler K23 to be ignorant and has lack of self and surrounding awareness, thus making Charles a more reliable option out of the two, whom Albert is most close with.
• ALBERT KNOWS ABOUT YOUR SECRET IDENTITY BEFORE CIEL AND EVERYONE AFTER ALEXIS AND GION, I DON'T CARE 
• Hamburgers, yum
• Charles is actually an OG gossiper, or at least he has so many gossip to him it is crazy. Ofc he used it to his advantage. With how judgemental he is, people found him to be very fun person to spill tea with
• Charles is also an OG prankster, Idk about you all, but that 'naive dumb' facade will be so good at trolling people (like in K33 where he trolled them into eating fruits he disliked taste of)
• Idk what to think of his backstory yet, but for my fics he is more spoiled by his family than other princes, he is the only son and prioritised by his family, his parents let him do whatever he wanted with lack of consequence which led him to his ideal and sense of justice. Charles also made too many friends with high royalty and presidents' that are fake, forced and had bad influence, making his bonds with the main princes and Alexis too genuine and special to him to be lost.
• This is my delulu, I think Charles has biased dislikes against Shao Long, so even if he doesn't do anything, he will continue to secretly despise him. It is like when you remember you hating this TV show so much and you don't EVER want to revisit it but you cannot tell exactly what make you so hate it without being biased when asked, I think that's familiar case here. Charles had spent his whole life disliking Shao Long that even IF (big emphasis on if) Shao Long's whole comeback was innocent in k16, he would always find a way to be doubtful of him.
• He is the safe friend, but has he ever felt safe? 
• With how he kept getting hit and attacked by his own best friends and used his body as a shield since he was a little kid, hella no way this man's body is not dying without him realising it

Status: 

Health: 7/8

Stamina: 8/8

Stealth : 10/8 get out of here (bro got a certain bird cheatcode)

Speed: 8/8

Strength: 8/8

Knowledge: 5/8 is what he told his friends, but it's probably 8/8 (not just academic)

(It will be scary to get chased by Charles ngl)

Alexis:

• His full name is Alexis Evan I think, called by everyone as Alex and SPOILER K31 his mother, Eudora as Alexis (correct me if I am wrong)
• 15 years old so far
• He has a duo moment with everyone what can I say. From K1 to somewhere K20, he was closest with Prince Albert and Charles, he had a duo screentime with Prince Ciel on K6, but a few times as rivals with Gion, nowadays he is often with Prince Charles with older and younger brother dynamic, Alex himself said he looked up to Charles.
• He is canonly shipped with Princess Han Su K12 Spoiler he canonly danced with Princess Han Su in a ball/event and they exchanged letters(?) with each other.
• Adoptable— what— I mean, friendly and hard to maintain a dislikeable relationship with
• Timid, but actually bold and have a way with his words, he is often the voice of reason for the group and does his best to provide and consider a solution that is fair and correct for everyone even if they are rivals, he is unlikely to give up, and believe goodness in people even if he didn't get to know or wounded by them (Principal Evan, Gion, Livio, and the list goes on)
• Dark brown hair with bright blue eyes, wear glasses and have hamster/rabbit teeth (does he still have that lately?)
• His birthday is 1st April (ON APRIL FOOL??? NOO ALEX)
• SHORTTT, YOU SHORT
• In K32, he can understand and read morse code in short time.
• His father is Principal Evan and also owner of Momosu Island
• The princes assume everyone knows Alex is the son of Evan, but literally somehow nobody did
• Spoiler for K11: the first appearance of his bodyguard Quentin, he has short black hair with a bang that covers one eye, his eyes are also black. It is revealed as the series continues that he is the leader of the bodyguard organasition for the princes and Alex. He also works as janitor in the Momos Academy for Boys as a diguise. He also can fly a helicopter as shown in K11. He has a formal but platonic love-hate (jk jk) with Principle Evan, who hires him. He and Alexis have met multiple times, but Alex is unaware of his identity. 

Fanon and delulu:

• He and Prince Albert still have Mum and Child dynamic, so bear with me
• If they get rid of his rabbit/hamster teeth, then he still has it here 
• Unlike Albert, I think he will do bad during solo and group presentation with strangers (usually because the strangers don't want to corporate) but very well with his best friends and the Princes (Prince Anu does not count)
• He understands a lot of languages, as he wants and is excited to make new friends, he is constantly learning new languages to overcome culture limit
• NERDDDDDDD
• He fears abandonment, but he also hates the thought of overdepending and being too clingy to the princes, so everytime those thought comes, self-loath and guilts come (ain't I so great)
• His parents kinda suck, ngl. Good couple, not good parents at all

Health: 7/8

Stamina: 5/8

Speed: 5/8

Strength: 6/8

Ciel:

Canon:

• 16 years old so far
• He is prince of France
• His birthday is on 29th February (crying, maybe this was also why Prince Albert was stressed to receive your call on New Year night)
• He is wimpy and overemotional nowadays
• His duo moments usually with Princes Albert; they bicker a lot, and lately with Prince Charles, getting the cool scenes
• He is shipped with Princess Gina (Gion's younger sister) Spoiler for K20: It is informed that Prince Ciel and Princess Gina had gone to a date (Albert could never) 
• He looks like a girl, like to dress up and make up, he has a long ponytail hair tied with red ribbon
• Long golden hair, bright blue eyes
• He is creative and does very well in art, design and fashion
• He also lost him complexity shown in K5 (I am bitter about that Idc) and sassiness
• They also make him more kind-hearted and gullible recently (no doubt to give Charles more cool scenes—)
• Say goodbye to his sassiness in recent volumes
• SPOILER FOR K27: Prince Ciel unawarely has a short (HAH, SHORT POINT AND LAUGH) bodyguard named Engel. Engel is a SHORT man with neckish height wavy orange, blonde haircut, he has long same colour eyelashes, bright blue eyes and usually dressed in black, he is good with weapons and needles. In this volume, he saved Prince Ciel who got kidnapped and almost straggled to death by his friend, Jayvyn (the prince of South Africa). IN K34, he appeared and pickpocketed the person who stole Prince Ciel's wallet, leading to their first meet. Ciel mistook Engel as a pickpocketer and let him have his wallet. IN K35, Engel started a false identity as a student in Momos Academy for Boys to keep closer eyes on Ciel and Merlin under Quentin's order, he became Prince Ciel's PE buddy in Merlin's first class. As of now, Ciel is still unaware of Engel's true identity.  

Fanon and delulus:

• This guy is born on spite and hatred, bro is throwing hands and shades at everyone Idc. Kindness? Screw that
• Bro is the most straighest and unstraighest person in the world
• I don't know it is just due to the comic panel, but Charles is taller than Prince Ciel in one of them, so I say "no". (I should probably make a height ccomparison too)
• I am not saying boys can't be emotional and sensitive, but I am following Albert and Ciel's dynamic from earlier volumes where they are free to bicker and snarl at eachother without exaggerated aftermath (Old Ciel and Albert relationship is more funny to me because it is not just Ciel being 'mean' to Albert, but Albert to Ciel too)
• I am gonna be honest; WHY DO YOU GET TO KNOW ABOUT CHARLES'S TWO FACE IDENTITY BEFORE ALBERT??? I AM SO MAD ABOUT THAT, I WAS SO BETRAYED, YOOUUUUUUUU
• I prefer his hair colour from earlier volumes, looks more unique compared to other blondes
• Bro is living on risk and "because I can" examples: posted his daydreaming and lovesick about Gina on social media where Prince Gion can clearly see, he probably even shared link of them to Gion 
• He is very lovesick of Gina, and everytime people tried to make fun of him for it (Aka Prince Albert getting revenge) he instead is flushed and likes it and demands them to talk about Gina more
• His love language is definitely giving and exchanging gifts, flirting and making time

Status:

Health: 8/8

Stamina: 6/8

Stealth: 6/8

Speed: 6/8

Strength: 6/8

Knowledge: 7/8 (he is shit in academic, but let give it for his fashion and art knowledge)

 

Author's note: FUCKKKK— MY MIND WENT "there are so many 6— 69— 67 NOOO"

I suck at making this if you can't tell

Leon:

canon:

• 16 years old
• Prince of Germany
• His birthday is 30th June (Smth about Prince Leon's birthday on 30th makes it cute)
• He is the walking encyclopedia, other words for NERDDDDDDD 
• He has light brown with black undercut hair (taken from wiki fandom cuz Idk) and his eyes colour are apparently brown? Looks purple or greyish too. His pupils are smaller than rest (which makes it hard to tell)
• His most best friend is totally Felix, no doubt about it they knew each other since preschool/kindergarten. (Before Givion, we have this). He started a trauma bonding/genuine friendship with Prince Shintarou since K10 and their relationship been implied and shown once a while since (what is the term similiar to trauma bonding without abuse and toxicity? Help, I forgot the name pls tell)
• His hobby involves gardening, even giving names to his plants (I forgot the names). He is not that bad in physical health and body. 
• Leon canonly sleepwalked, due to his trauma and stress of the past. Only Prince Felix used to know about this until K44.
• It was revealed in K48 he was not the smartest but Prince Shintarou is
• SPOILER FOR K45: Leon is colourblind implied red-green colour blindness, so far only Prince Charles and Prince Ciel know, not even Felix does (questionable choice but hey, more plots for fanwriters like me)
• He dislike the uses of AI and technology for something that humans should be able to do, especially overdependence of them (as someone who is addicted to gadgets, based af Leon)
• He is kinda creative too actually, he did well during art in K44
• So far his backstory have two different ways of him meeting Prince Felix; I prefer the first one in K14 because I like the way they became friends, however, spoiler for K22 Leon getting kidnapped for a month still applies, so does his trauma 
• SPOILER FOR K35, in this volume, Leon's bodyguard makes an official appearance and we got to know her name, Doctor Amy is her alias and she had been working as the school doctor since Volume 7, her real name is Jelena and she had tan skin, usually wearing doctor labcoat at school and black outfits during her duty outside, and bright blue eyes. In the past, she used to have a short ponytail blonde hair, now at K46 it was cut during her practice with Raven and she had a short cut hair now, still blonde. She was also the person who checked up Leon on his colourblindness.

Author's note (has spoiler for K10 and K22): Oh wait I just realised, both the genius Shintarou and Leon had been kidnapped in their past. LMAO. Actually, spoiler for K35 and K42 and K48: they both got kidnapped again (Shintarou three times,) with trauma bonding to the next level

Shintarou: You don't know how it feels like dramatic noise

Leon: Actually--- raises a finger and proceed to trauma dump with a straight face

Shintarou: .

Shintarou: what the fuck

Felix 

Canon

• 15 years old speaking of now
• He is the prince of Spain.
• His birthday is 24th November (huh, the same month as Gion's) 
• His hair is reddish brown or maroon, the same for his eyes except on the comic covers, where he has yellow eyes instead (marketing yes)
• Childish, playful and straightforward. He has extreme strength and physical attributes that makes him easily break stuff, even on accident and without intention, combined with his clumsy nature, he ends up being a hassle despite wanting to help, however, his honest and good characteristic make him a good and reliable ally to be with.
• His best friend since childhood is Leon ^^ 
• Like Alexis, he is also friendly and does not hold grudges, him continuously wanting to befriend and being nice to Prince Shintarou despite him being the most antisocial person ever and did bad to them before
• Due to his simple mind and trust nature, he is gullible and an idiot, easily trusting everything that was said to him, also taking any orders and instruction without a second thought (aka in K14, where Prince Felix worked as a train pusher and did all Leon said without a thought)
• He is always paired up with Leon and be a third wheel when Leon and Shintarou have interaction, usually he got hissed by Shintarou for no reason (R.I.P). Otherwise, he and Alexis had also duo screentime together.
• He has six older siblings; he is the youngest out of seven (Boboiboy Elemental---)
• SPOILER FOR K14 his backstory consisted of being forgotten and left behind by his family, his dream to become a toy fixer was also laughed and ridiculed by his siblings and father. And when I said forgotten--- to the point of celebrating his birthday alone with his servant and his bedroom being used as storage. We are led to believe his parents (at least his Mom said so) do it to discipline Felix and teach him to be independent (which I called terrible parenting btw: I hope the series will point out how shit that treatment and parenting is in the future instead of shrugging it off, it's okay to point out some parents just don't deserve having children in teens comics). In this same comic, we also got to know of Felix's cousin, who is also his bodyguard named James, blonde and blue eyes adult. His mother's name is Laura as called by James "Aunty Laura".
• His hobby and specialty are cooking and baking.

Fanon and Delulu

• He takes time cooking dinner for the team (Albert does lunch)
• More on personal delulu, I headcanon Felix has autism and ADHD 
• Although seemed impossible. Prince Felix secretly is jealous of Prince Leon; this is because in my AU(s) Prince Leon held a mutual guest relationship with Felix's family, whom they always compared and belittling Felix with. This is also expanded with (fanon, not canon) Leon keeping contact with Felix's Mom and told to look after her son, including telling on her things Felix didn't want to confine in like his bad academy grade and injuries he got from his recklessness, which put a strain to their bonds.
• He is the loudest, but the least memorable out of the gang (ain't that true?)
• Always get sick due to bad habits and diet but easily get healed back (is this actually the opposite from what is canon? I don't remember sorry)

Gion

Canon:

• He is 16 years old.
• The prince of Italy
• He is born on 11th Novembet (11/11, funfact: it is also Remembrance Day where people pay respect to the fallen soldiers during first world war; I have a fanfic idea now... smiles)
• He has a younger sister named Gina, their relativeness revealed in K6 his debut volume. He had a controlling and bad influential grandpa, who played a more lasting impact and role on nurturing Gion more than his parents, who are revealed still alive in K46 (I was just about to joke how they made zero appearance at all in Gion and Gina's backstory despite hem getting a lot). In K45, he is also revealed to have an older brother though he only made an appearance in K46 who is less remarkable and impressive than Gion, however will have the throne (read to see why)
• He is a big cat lover, a fanatic, he even went against his grandpa's rules and orders to continue playing and feeding them, which wounded him when his grandpa discovered and kicked them out. In K41, he proposed a cat adoption amongst students idea to Principal Evan after the complaints of many stray cats, he himself got to adopt one, whom he slept with, buying many toys and plushies for too.
• His most notable relationship is with Livio, his personal aide bodyguard and servant who is also his childhood friend. The only person that make him frustrated so much is Livio who the bodyguard himself said it meant he cared--- sorry not sorry to say, they had... very implied ship materials, with every prince shipped with a princess already but he, Prince Leon and Felix (who are ehem) and Prince Shintarou (we all know he would rather marry a robot). They both have undeniably high trust on each other, and despite how asshole--- I meant misunderstood Gion is towards Livio, Livio remains his most reliable bodyguard. Both show compassion and protectiveness of each other, and know a lot. They had two centric volumes where they went through a 'break up' and ended up with each other again, but focusing on their formal relationship as master and bodyguard (K25 and K40) In K25, Livio's backstory of meeting Gion is revealed, he was a homeless boy who lived in park and in deal for food and drink, he helped to take care of Gion's stray cat away from his grandpa. However, this plan backfired when Livio (literally) got kidnapped by Gion's grandpa to be made into Gion's bodyguard, which makes me realise that is very wrong--- 
• He is also very protective and as described by our lord and saviour Ciel has 'brother complex' (learnt by our saint Junta ofc can't forget) towards his sister, Gina, even as far SPOILER K6 kidnapping Prince Charles, Albert, Leon and Felix and trapped them in their own countries attraction spots, giving Prince Ciel and Alexis three days to find them or they will have to leave Momos Academy for boys, all because Princess Gina has a crush on Ciel and not giving him all attention; ignoring the fact that Prince Ciel literally saved his sister from a weird harasser. Gion literally moved into the academy to continue torturing Prince Ciel, Alex and other princes (tf the rest did) because Princess Gina has common sense and backed up Prince Ciel, who you know, innocent. He had since been opposed to Ciel dating his sister, Princess Gina and held a grudge on him.
• Due to reason above, he has a rivalry duo with Ciel. Another rivalry is with Prince Charles, making him learn and beware of Charles's two face masks, he had since seen him as a remarkable and noteworthy opponent to be alerted of. Another is with Alexis, whom he is jealous and bitter (probably still is) for 'stealing' role as the student council member president, making him be a vice president instead as shown in K7 and K8. (Yes, my spoiler warning is all over the room). They all have situational ally and frenemies volumes and moments with Prince Gion, he is no longer the main threat due to someone's permanent appearance.
• (WHY YOU MUST HAVE SO MANY NOTABLE RELATIONSHIP??? SHHSUWIWIWI) Anyways, the last one--- oh shit there is Prince Shintarou too, kill me--- this whole thing is basically a spoiler but on unspoiler like, due to Gion's resemblance like to Anu's big brother; Anubis has seen treated and obeyed every commands of Gion, even the ones he is unaware of (literally), he is literally a younger brother yandere for Gion Idk what to tell you. Prince Gion is enabling his behaviours by shrugging it off and taking advantages of Anubis' loyalty. (Ok, Mr. "Nothing major happened. He is just trying to pull a prank" from K47, I snorted when I read). Continuing this on Anubis's character sheet (SAVE ME, WHY ARE THERE SO MANY CHARACTERS)
• Although this is an important character information--- SPOILER FOR K40! Prince Gion is revealed to be deaf on one of his ears, which is the reason why SPOILER K45 and 46, his parents and grandpa is fine with him being sent to Momos Academy for boys and gave the future throne to his older brother instead, and also why Livio always stands guard and beside the deaf ear (I for the dead can't remember which side, I AM SORRY GION FAN). Charles seemed to have an idea because of course he does.
• He has an IQ of 160 at the age of 8 but seemed to go down as revealed in K16 to 140.
• He dislikes pineapple.
• Spoiler for K46, Prince Gion had been kidnapped and got straggled.

Fanon and delulu: 

• He and Livio are the parents of the antagonist group, Shintarou and Anubis are their children. Shintarou is the spoiled quiet beloved kid while Anubis is the street stray adopted kid that the father wanted to dump in the middle of the forest if not for another dad/mom. Shao Long is the forgotten middle child that neither remembered about.
• Idk tbh, what else does he need.
• If bro is not gay with Livio, he is asexual to me Ig.
• He doesn't know boundaries. In his whole life his boundaries had been crossed by others (his grandpa, Anubis, etc), he is shit now. Despite his cold and aloof personality, he doesn't know how to say no to people he really care about, both because he is scared and doesn't want to be hated. So he stayed quiet when things didn't go as he wanted at those people.

(The OG Gary Sue)

 

Author's note: At his point, who has not been kidnapped.

 

Author's note 2: Gion is a bodyguard and yandere magnet, what the hell. "The colder you are, the more protective of others to you" --- Gion Logic. Even Shintarou cared and protected Gion (look at k24)

 

Livio

Canon:

• Is 17 years old rn.
• Born on 1st May (fucking Labour Public Day in Malaysia, Gion better paid you good)
• Is the bodyguard and aide servant of Prince Gion the Italy, 
• He has neck length light grey haircut and bright blues eyes. 
• He is also a big cat lover.
• Spoiler background info from K25: His father is Italian, his mother is from Momosu Island, they gave born to Livio there. Livio's father left them to go to Italy, resulting in the mother killing herself leaving Livio orphanaged. Since Livio could speak Italian, a man brought him to Italy where he became homeless and met Gion and history was made (I am too lazy to retype). Her mother took her life on Halloween night, making Livio hate Halloween more than anything (are we sure about that now---). Livio made it his mission to return to Momosu Island and find her mother's rushed grave, where he had planted white flowers around, digging holes in the academy near the flowers to find her due to a rumour that the academy was build on a cemetery. Principal Evan eventually led him to the actual graveyard, where the son could finally visit his mother. I checked the fandom wiki and apparently his mother beat him too after his father left, pat Livio.
• Livio also has a notable and kind relationship with Alexis, with Alexis being trusty of him since Day 1 of him moving to the academy and Livio holding no personal grudge to any of them and be polite and kind back, they both have a genuine relationship and be the peacemaker between their two groups' rivalry. Alexis sometimes sought advice from Livio, who was always happy to help. In K13 when Alex faced a problem, he considered calling Livio for help but didn't because he was afraid of Gion; showing that they both have phone contact of each other and friendly terms even when the two groups had not forgiven and still untrustful at the time. 
• Do you really want me to yap about his relationship with Gion again? 
• YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH THAT TOOK ME OUT WHEN I CHECKED FANDOM WIKI AND SAW HIS DISLIKE, HAHAHHAA; Dislikes: Halloween, spicy food, Prince Anubis (piece of shit, that got me so goooood)
• I would like to point out in both SPOILER K44 AND K48 Livio had a nightmare where he saw Prince Anubis being the cause of death of Prince Gion, and bro has to put up with Anu's bullshit because Prince Gion is too sympathetic; I am crying. From the very first day of Livio knew Anubis, he got a bad vibe and suspicion about him, but he CAN'T get rid of him; I just, cannot 
• Spoiler spoiler but he got fired/quited twice as Prince Gion's bodyguard but he kept coming back.
• SPOILER FOR K25 AND K35; after Livio got 'fired' and 'expelled' from the academy, he came back a month later to continue his service to Prince Gion, it was revealed in K35 that he actually disappeared for a month to go undertraining and be in the academy bodyguard organisation under Principal Evan and Quentin's leads.

• . Question: If you were stranded on a deserted island and could only bring one thing with you, what would you bring and why?

  Livio's answer: I want to take Anu away from Gion. (Special Interview on 10th anniversary comic)

• In the same special comic btw, Livio and Gion had a short one-chapter interaction as two people in opposing magic world side, these people really be feeding the Livion nation. (literally enemies to ehem vibe, damn), and another chapter where they all became pop idols like, and Livio also hated Gion for betraying him or smth.

Fanon and delulu:

• At this point dude probably dreamt about escaping and isekai to a world with him and Gion only.
• With how he ended up being Prince Gion's bodyguard due to Gion's grandpa and with how cold Gion was at first, he might have Stockholm Syndrome Idk man, crying emoji. Let's all be honest, he would kill himself for Prince Gion, and Gion is done with his unnecessary self-sacrifice ("Who else is gonna organise my socks then?") He might learn a thing or two from spoiler spoiler Prince Shintarou's bodyguard.
• We need a fic where Livio had to take care of primary school kid Anubis (suffer, SUFFER WHITE BOY)
• Have I mentioned he is my second favourite after Albert?
• "Is Prince Shintarou not enough? How many bratty kids we need heartbroken emoji heartbroken emoji"
• Don't be surprised if Livio and Alexis duo comes back
• He doesn't seem the type to hold grudges but oh boy does he--- wait, this is just canon.
• I lowkey think he has abandonment issues... due to his backstory.
• "Remember your place, Anu, I am the OG Yandere"

Author's note: I just want you all to know that when I bought K25 and read it with my PS (Prince Series) friend none of us knew what remembrance means.

Shintarou

Canon:

• First of all, NERDDD
• He is 16 years old rn
• He is the oldest prince of Japan and has a younger brother named Hibino Junta (Shintarou full name is Hibino Shintarou)
• His birthday is 9th June (The same month as Leon...)
• He wears a pair of glasses, have dark navy blue short hair with bangs and dark navy blue eyes. He is also not tall and has health problem. 
• All volumes centric to this guys is banger, except for K48 which is eh. But damn K10 and K42, what the hell these writers smoked.
• In K8 on the island, Shintarou was theorised to have a fear of physical contact and touch, Haphephobia. IN SPOILER K10, the fear is confirmed with Prince's backstory of being kidnapped and buried by a father figure he trusted who was his private teacher and friend. Even since, Prince Shintarou became hateful of humans. He also met Prince Gion and Shintarou after the incident as Shintarou was at Italy at that time, these two being the ones who unburied him. His trauma got worse as he saw the father figure 'dying' and being brought away after rushing home.
• He respected and put Prince Gion's opinions over his in the early volumes (K7) but as days go on, he didn't do that anymore and became chill chill with him and Livio. Due to his trauma and hate of human, he still believed that robot companions make a better servant and friends than humans as he said to Gion twice, but that might have changed at the end of K48. They three had overcome many problems including personal home one, such as in K19, where these two helped Prince Shintarou to prepare a birthday gift to Prince Junta, amending their brotherhood they lost after Shintarou's trauma, although misunderstood by the other princes and Alexis.
• He had been called Shin Shin by Livio once in K20.
• Shintarou's most looked up and notably relationship is probably with Prince Leon, bonded since K10 and Leon being the first person out of the main prince group who can handshake Prince Shintarou volunteeringly. In K20, Prince Shintarou stole the library tile in monopoly from Prince Leon (yes, very important information). They had their agree and disagree from times to times, with them two being the genius and having the right knowledge to help; yet they could never agree on the technology vs manual argument (Prince Leon hates AI and robots, while Prince Shintarou is skilled on those fields and basically lives on them)
• He actually had a bodyguard to, his presence shown in K35 but his face and identity remained unknown. 
• He used to have two robots, one was named Dr. Pepper and another Honda, who is SPOILER named after Mr. Honda from K10, Shintarou's private tutor. Idk where they went, but in K48 he got a new one that he made himself, capable of him sending voice messages and calls although the princes were unaware, he used it to spy attend the meeting despite not being there physically. Funfact, he got kidnapped in this volume, claps hands.
• In K48, he is revealed to be smarter than all of the princes, Livio and Alexis, even more than Leon.
• He has a neutral view towards Prince Anubis, mostly because he doesn't give a fuck.
• He canonly had panic attacks, due to trauma, etc.
• He was given a special treatment to absent during PE class due to his physical attribute and health problems.
• In k38, he is said by complaints and Principal Evan to use clubrooms despite not being a club member (slayyy)
• SPOILER FOR K42, seriously: Prince Shintarou's bbackgroud identity was finally revealed; he went to meet Livio who recognised him as Mr. Honda (what the hell mannnnnn, what in the plot twist???). Mr. Honda turned out to very love and care Shintarou, but Shintarou's Dad despised their past relationship since he assumed Mr. Honda was making Shintarou weak and soft (HE WAS SIX YEAR OLD, 6 YEARS OLD). So he got Mr. Honda to fake his death and everything (turns out that not only author believed giving their OCs trauma make them stronger, but Shintarou's Dad too). Mr. Honda's service was supposed to end there, he got promoted to be the King's bodyguard instead but he pleaded to continue being Shintarou's bodyguard, earning him a scar on his head by Shintarou's dad (get them both out of here. If Shintarou's Dad is not the worst Idk what to say). So Mr. Honda got to stay being Shintarou's bodyguard, his real name is actually Iseya, the mysterious bodyguard that stays in vents. He realised that he still haunted Shintarou's life because trauma just worked like that, and yk what he did to help Shintarou overcome his trauma? Yes, he kidnapped him and trapped him again inside a small dark shelter with puzzles for him with the guarantee thata Livio would come to save him (Shintarou, I can understand why you hate humans, what is this plan). Shintarou's bodyguard awaited for Livio to finish him off and get the shelter key(Idk if Livio had ever killed anyone, but ain't that fucked up to make another minor to end your life, like how tough mentally you think these kids are) but surprisingly Shintarou solved the puzzle himself and chased Iseya (I am so proud of you, Honey, what the hell). He slapped Iseya and yelled at him then fainted. Livio came and gave Iseya a recording between Shintarou and his robot pepper during storm, he listed 10 happy memories and it included his and Mr. Honda's 10th years friends anniversary, he forgave him and wanted him to live on if he is still alive

Fanon and delulu:

• Ok, listen, in K10, Gion and Livio told Leon to not pat Shintarou's head cuz that's where all hell is broken, SO THAT MEANT THEY HAD PATTED HIM BEFORE, THEY PATTED HIM A LOT
• Livio shall now call you "Shin Shin" Idc.
• Bro is the most nitpicky person when it comes to food, but he doesn't mind eating ramen on floor or bed (with folded desk) despite his hygiene.
• He has asthma beside from panic attacks now (Suffer)
• Junta sent him anime clips and meme, no explanation needed.
• Bro easily changes side of teams in a fight depending on his mood, he didn't even need to gain anything from it but if he thought it was funny then he will change teams.
• You know he got "look who finally decides to come out of their room" treatment
• He secretly wanted Prince Gion's autograph.
• He probably forgot Shao Long live with them, and couldn't care enough when he does.

Author's note: I just want you all to know I reread K42 and that shit makes me cry. No matter how dick you are, Shintarou, you will be my secret adopted child, come let's eat sushi or do whatever you want. 

Anubis

Canon:

• Is aged 15 currently.
• He is the prince of Egypt
• His birthday is unknown (or fandom wiki is not updated yet)
• He has brownish tan skin, white creamy hair and brown eyes.
• He knew morse codes and probably other languges like that too.
• He looked up, adored and treated Prince Gion as his older brother, whom Gion shared resemblance with. Despite Gion taking advantages and using Anubis as tools, Anubis also mistreated and even portrayed abusiveness to him since they were children. Minor spoiler for K46, upon first few times meeting Prince Gion, Anubis held on and became clingy to him, such as gripping his wrist too hard he left red mark, this abusiveness did not just last in childhood but till now as shown Prince Anu having no care towards Prince Gion's personal boundaries, always wanting to know everything about him, holding him, and still leaving red mark on his wrist. Gion at first put up with Anubis due to his grandpa's interest in him until eventually he became caring and sympathetic of Anubis.
• K24 spoiler! About Prince Anubis's older brother; he was dead, that why was why is so clingy to Prince Gion, sworn to protect and see his new older brother into his adulthood. His father had placed and thrown Anubis and his blood brother onto an island, forcing them to live and overcome obstacles independently and fight for the crown. However his plan backfired when the two princes teamed up; with Anubis killing and getting food while his brother set up shelter and make traps, this happened after Anubis got attacked by a beast (animal) and heavily injured on leg, his older brother came and save him. Then, the king sent his tropes to shoot the first prince he saw, Anubis who was fell into the bait, but his older brother saved him instead and died getting shot. After, he was brought home to the ill king who wanted to give him the throne, that was when Anubis told him the truth.
• Anubis also held a special relationship with Princess Neelam from India; having been stunned and watching her dance performance after given a handscaft to treat his hand wound in K12, where they first met. Then, their relationship expanded in spoiler K24 as he is very interested in Neelam since she was immune to his poison and had many knowledges about the island herbs and plants, bonding with her as they both got trapped inside the island and always wants her to know about his past since, telling her about his older brother in a fairy tale-like and also in K36 where he spared Neelam and brought her to see his older brother's favourite homecountry attraction spot. In K32, he got caught by Alexis when trying to send a letter in morse code asking is Neelam ignoring him showing how much he found attraction and wanted attention from her. (This iis another case of Stockholm Syndrome but eh)
• In K46 it was revealed Anubis could not return home due to heiretage issues, since Anubis is still too young, his throne was stole by a relative who sent tropes to hunt him down to get the throne forever and destroyed the threat after the death of king, Anu's death.
• SPOILER TO K46 AND K47: Anubis's bodyguard made the first appearance in K46, where he appeared in the villa where Gion was kidnapped and fought and met with Livio and Iseya for a brief moment. His connection with Anu was revealed in K47 where Anubis ordered his bodyguard to 'avenge' his brother Gion and terrorize a few innocent orphanage places and the prince while also injure and cause a fight between the bodyguard, he tried to poison Charles but accidently poisoned himself instead (L + Ratio). His bodyguard is named Ran, have black hair and eyes with many scars all over his faces and hands. Ran was an assassin paid to kill Anubis at first, but was put to a stop by the boy himself (somehow) and became Anu's slave bodyguard instead (Imagine losing to a 15 years old or younger teen, big L)
• Spoiler to K48: In the later chapter of the volume, Anu sent Ran to stalk and save kidnapped Shintarou since Gion was worried about him.
• Almost everything about this guy is a spoiler, lmao

 

 

Fanon and delulu:

• He has a beef with the family cat because Prince Gion gave too much attention to it, tell me I am wrong
• He is lowkey jealous of Shintarou, but thankfully the NERD is an introvert who couldn't bother about other people's business, so he escaped from a lot of problem.
• He tried to flame and blame Livio for wrong reasons and false accusations to get rid of him, but Gion is not stupid sooo
• I personally like to hc that since he is so obsessed with Gion and stuff, he doesn't pay attention in his study at all. His academic are far from failing, but he is not excellent too. I hc that he also used to test the drugs on himself, which wrecked his brain memory capacity, making him not smart in academy. If only Anubis cares a bit about this stuff, he could use that as an excuse to have Gion teaching him.

(Tbh, I am kinda confused about this guy, in K16 he can cook up a lot and I mean A LOT of food in an hour or so and cleaned the princes' dorm all by himself, but in K38, bro whined and complained about having to rake leaves like he had never any of those works. Ig there is a big difference between doing it to work on your revenge and another as a punishment but still)

 

If we have a trauma status, Leon and Shintaou (and Anubis) would get 99999 out of 8.

So height comparison! (This is fanon purely because I am too lazy to check with fandom wiki)

Alexis (154 cm) <<< Felix (164 cm) <<< Anubis (165ish cm) <<< Shintarou (170 cm) <<< Albert & Shao Long (174 cm) (Oh hi Shao Long)  <<< Gion (177 cm) <<< Charles (180 cm)<<< Livio (182.smthsmth cm) <<< Ciel (185 cm) <<< Leon (190 cm)

 

American version (I touch no grass) (I use a converter for this)

Alexis (5 feet and 0.63 inches) <<< Felix (5 feet and 4.57 inches) <<< Anubis (5 feet and 4.96 inches-ish) <<< Shintarou (5 feet and 6.93 inches) <<< Albert & Shao Long (5 feet and 8.5 inches) (Oh hi Shao Long)  <<< Gion (5 feet and 9.69 inches) <<< Charles (5 feet and 10.87 inches)<<< Livio (5 feet and 11.65 inches) (you are not getting that 6 feet lmao) <<< Ciel (6 feet and 0.83 inches) <<< Leon (6 feet and 2.8 inches)

 

Yes, I purposely make Albert and Shao Long have same height, LMAO

 

These specific heights are probably not permanent, will change on my mood

 

I AM DONE. I AM FINALLY DONE

IT TOOK ME A CONTINOUS WHOLE DAY AND BUNCH MORE TIME TO EDIT, ADD AND CHECK INFO TO GET THIS DONE IT IS 1 AM NOW AND I HAVE COLLEGE

And, I refuse to acknowledge the princes and Livio have full and surname names, tysm

If I forgot anything and constantly edit this part, I am sorry.

Edit: I lowkey want to see someone started a power scale debate for the bodyguards

Chapter Text

So, trends

I will mostly use TikTok trends, coming from a person who rarely used TikTok but to keep the pet streaks, lmao (Edit: Idk mate, I don't follow trends)

I am so boomer how the hell am I gonna do this

Let's start with Albert because:

1. He is my fav

PRINCE ALBERT

1. Trends

• Zodiac and MBTI test phrase

Continuing this, I now headcanon Albert can memorise and draw fast from what he saw, which would be very helpful for his people characterization obsession. When he was around 12 (ah yes), he used to be a Zodiac star nerd, following it closely and the horoscope around it, social media he saw about it; he ate them.

Then he got to learn about MBTI test and he never became the same.

He made the Zodiac charts and notes of his friends before the MBTI, his first victim subject was Charles, he lured him in with space and stars facts (I delulu Charles like space topic) and Ciel was like "How dare you all have fun without me hmph!" they died out of boredom later. 

So when they sensed Albert was interested in MBTI, they both ran and that left Albert making Leon his first victim subject. It was torturous getting Leon to use his phone to take the MBTI test, even more to teach him how and hearing his opinion on technology, but 12 yo Albert thought it was worth it (Dawg, why am I making a fanfic out of this)

He made a tiny note about his friends and peers, the strangers he met in the balls and parties.

And of course! Of his butler Paul too (Pls tell me that is his name).

Albert wanted to make ones for his parents and big brother but... he abandoned it 🙂

Onto the latest trends,

2. Content creators.

Continuing my awkward Albert half-canon propaganda, I think he does want to make social media celebrity accounts too, maybe focusing on his music and elegant stuff but he never went ahead with it. Despite that, his many abandoned accounts still got followed by his fanbase because that is just a fan's power to know.

 

He is Ciel's first TikTok, Intragram, etc video and pictures buddy, but usually only the pictures made it out alive because he got cringed by his own voice and movement in the videos. He and Ciel would constantly fight about that, and Charles will get dragged into it somehow. Eventually, Ciel starts leaning to Felix more as his social media buddy. Albert would say "finally you leave me alone" but he was actually minded.

 

He didn't know how to delete drafts. So countless of videos and posts he didn't want to send just end being in storage, and he cancelled a lot of stuff he wanted to post which eventually led him to abandon the accounts or update once a month.

 

I will make the therapist list following rank after.

Albert is done, next

(It feels suck Shao Long was not here last time so yee haa)

SHAO LONG

1. Trends

(Me trying to make a long headcanon about a character who got Thanos snapped as a non-Shao Long fan 🧐🤔)

(I wrote this after making his content creator delulu lmao)

You know about those Gacha (Yes, that Gacha) and triangle faces anime art style contenrs? He would join that trend. LMAO, I AM CRYING, IMAGINE ALL THOSE CRACK GACHA PRINCE SERIES VIDEOS ARE MADE BY SHAO LONG, AHHAHAHA

Bro's hatred for the princes so strong he redownloaded Gacha and made Gacha videos to ruin their reputations and made them a laugh for commoners.

 

2. Content Creator

From how his whole ordeal seemed to be about rumour and reputation, it is seen like a Shao Long's thing to have celebetries 'fan' accounts where he creates false personalities and images to make up hoaxes and drama (and not, he won't use AI, freak off, bro is the ultimate photoshop and editor king). He would definitely make those presidents and rulers ships posts for jokes and ragebaiting. Posting propaganda and stuff that shits on everyone)

AND

He made those fake contents and fanmade trailers for the fandoms that he is in that has been dead for decades old and stuff, prequel and sequel trailers for the movies he loves that is never coming back. He made those Chinese short fanfics for the fandom that is gone and lacked contents and discontinued. He makes those long appreciated but never known community and fandom service. He is learning languages and translating small underrated Chinese novels in Wattpad into multiple languages for more people to come and read, staying up till midnight to give the shows that deserve much more. "Sorry for terrible grammar, English is not my first language" --- 11 years old Shao Long on author's note. He is that one fancreator you are grateful of but never gets to meet and chat with.

 Ok, I am loving this too much. I hope this makes up for the fact that I don't do his character sheet 

 

PRINCE CIEL

1. Trends.

• Labubu

He is the prince that saw beauty in beasts Ig. Ngl, labubu are not that ugly, I searched them up on Google and they looked pretty cute. He is the type to show them and goes "Albert look! This labubu is glowering, it reminds me of you!" proceeds to buy it

You see my vision, right?

Another point is that he would absolutely get freaked out by them during midnight and turned their faces to look at wall (he will continue to buy new ones). Bonus point when other princes and Alexis found his labubu around the dorm and got weirded out.

Lmao, imagine Leon who had no idea what Labubu (or TikTok) is finding it on the couch.

• Lip stains

He would follow and subscribe to a lot of content creators about these, babbling and yapping about them at ChatGPT (look at K48) because other princes and Alexis didn't want to hear it. He would of course wear and test them out during free time, purposely using tissue and give them kiss mark.

 

2. Content Creators

Inhales

Lost breathes before being able to mention all social media Ciel has.

Low key a big reason why Albert even wanted to be a content creator.

He is mostly active in Instagram and TikTok, still also using and constantly updating Facebook for his old and loyal fans there cuz he is caring like that. If he wants drama or read hot opinion for fun, he will doom scroll Twitter. 

Prince Ciel is not just a fashion and make up content creator, but a walk-through-my-life creator.

He is always livestreaming, opening QnA, advice in fields he knew and stuff.

Despite using ChatGPT for fashion advice and a makeup buddy, he still let his fans give suggestion and take parts in his life to show he cares.

His current content buddy is Felix. He occasionally let Leon stay in background because he knew that will increase his viewership due to the simps.

If Albert has shown and said he was not that uncomfortable making contents with him, he will always ask if he wants to join firsthand with him and Felix. If Albert said no, he respected, if Albert showed he was interested, he would make room.

(I am supposed to hate you, want you to be that sarcastic meanie, what am I doing) (why are you so green flag the hell)

 

PRINCE CHARLES 

(I know Charles is no longer a prince, he is the president's son but it feels weird)

1. Trend

I for the dead cannot see Charles being a TikTok and modern social media addict, he gives me such a boomer dad vibe. But at the same time, skibidi toilet

Smiling, eyes closed, in chibi mode "Skibidi toilet sigma helicopter" --- Charles (CRIES)

 

2, Content Creator

I also personally don't see Charles as a content creator, as he is someone who wants to be average and view himself as the reliable side character in the main character's life, he would want to stay quiet. That being said, he has many private and side accounts. He would totally use them to stalk and support his friends's social media and contents (Maybe it is not just Kaoru who likes her characters stalking, but me)

He is always there, in someone's livestream, every day and moment.

Every time Prince Ciel did a livestream Charles would hop in as a viewer, pluck in his airpods and leave his phone on somewhere until its battery drained while he went on God knows where doing student council member stuff. Or, he would put it on mini and split screen, listened to music while walking home. Once a while he checked his phone and went "Oh, he is still livestreaming" then did his business without leaving online.

And I mean every single time. Prince Ciel could be doing livestreaming at 4 am wearing face mask laying on bed looking just staring at camera and Charles would there staring back from his own bedroom.

Charles: What is this guy doing now

Ciel: Why is he awake

Bonus point if Ciel was too self-centric and forgot his own friend's acc and thought that was super mega fan of him, or Charles using his alt acc. Bonus bonus point if Ciel found out and went "Mon Dieu Charles! I don't know you are such a big fan of me, I am so fluttered!" (OK, I can understand why you guys ship them (I am defeated by my own headcanons))

When Albert accidently doing livestream or opening cams somewhere (my fear, I am giving it to him lmao) Charles is also there watching. Since Albert is less social media creator than Ciel, Charles would be more curious and pay more attention, getting confused why he is barely saying anything and just silent awkwardly. Then Albert turned off the livestream or cam and send "Fuck you Charles" to him.

WHAT DID I DO??? --- Charles

Charles never knew what he did wrong (or maybe he did)

 

PRINCE LEON

1. Trend

• BookTok 

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NEVER LET HIM FIND OUT ABOUT BOOKTOK

PLEASE, HE WOULD BE SO DISAPOINTED

Therapist: And tell me what is bothering you so bad this week?

Leon: And then they said, this book page has too many words Leon covered his face

Therapist: Wow

 

(You don't know how much I am avoiding using dots (.) to not seem mean 😭)

2. Content creator

Does Leon even have a phone now? I forgot

Even if he does, he would let Felix has it to control his screentime and dependence on it

The clumsier Felix is with his phone, the better

 

If he does become a content creator, he would use his influence to post and remind people to read more books. Posting and promoting book days, reading and library.

 

Gardening too yes.

 

Huh, does Leon know about lofi girl music?  Hmm

🤔 🧐

(Yes, I am using emojis to seem friendly too. AM I LEON)

Naturally after Leon there would be Felix---

PRINCE FELIX

1. Trend

• FoodTok (is there one? Idk actually)

CIel introduced him to TikTok, since then he just swiped and scrolled whatever on his for your page (until he learnt how to use search bar). Then he started checking out food and place to go. He would open cooking or mukbang videos to watch in background while he is cooking. He always goes hungry when opened social media and saw smoothies and trendy food.

He joined and followed many FoodTok creators, hearting all the video but NEVER actually watch them to the end before scrolling down (if you do this too, yes I am calling you out)

He could be a brainrot like Charles too Ig, but seemed too quizless to me to do that

 

• DIY DIY DIY DIY, DO-IT-YOURSELF

"Being excluded by people feels terrible... I don't want to be alone... will you be my friend?"

HAH, BET YOU DON'T EXPECT ME TO PULL THAT FROM NOWHERE

Felix, Felix, you gotta stop buying furniture from Ikea thinking you can pull it off and have quality time with Leon building it

Stop practising building and crafting Ikea furniture so you can fix that toy you broke and show your family you are serious about your ambition (and not being seen as a disappointment)

Oh Felix,

You would eat up those five minutes craft contents, won't you?

Show and share the videos to your friends? Say that you will make them?

You want to be seen smart?

Anything?

 

2. Content creator

• Chef videos

Yk those peaceful and calming videos of someone just cooking and making food, baking? I think Felix will be that. Although he is usually loud and noisy (you think he is noisy?) he is quiet and calm in his cooking videos. Still the normal excited Felix, just dedicated and respectful chef to his cooking.

Other princes would constantly walk and use the kitchen while he is making the videos, maybe stop to check on his progress, bicker in the back (Albert and Ciel), grabbing food and stuff.

Sometimes Prince Leon is there too, as a cooking buddy, but Felix has a countless video of just him cooking in silence. The great kind of silence. Peace.

• Food vlogger

After checking reviews and watched mukbang or other food vloggers, of course Felix would want to taste it too! Prince Ciel would usually join in these kinds of stuff, raiding from place to place to eat and enjoy food, ordering the whole menu. Of course after having a dine they gave enormous tips to the cookers and waiters.

Prince Leon would accompany Felix to the store and shopping mall, then separated to go the bookstore.

After he and Ciel were done, he then was forced by the blonde to follow him shopping clothes. Felix, who would too busy checking the videos they just recorded or checking out the new restaurant online, would be tricked to carry Ciel's stuff and bags mindlessly.

 

Funfact: he tried to be a DIY creator, sending videos of him working on the Ikea furniture, but it never worked ;)

 

After Leon and Felix, there is Shintarou

PRINCE SHINTAROU

1. Trend

• He knew every existence of latest trends, he just dgaf

Look at him, you really think he is going to join a TikTok trend?

There could be a Computer and Robotic club in Momos Academy for Boys and he won't join because th-there would be people there *trembles*

(I love being cringe)

The only person who can combat Ciel with his chronic online, in fact, he is the OG and more chronic than him

What is bro's glasses power, I need to know

I can imagine Shintarou secretly joining this trend, found out someone he knew join it too, and silently whimpered leaving the fandom/trend 

Shintarou: covers face and sighed the loudest Why would you do this to me? Now I have to go back to the shadow and find another thing I like which will take me a decade 

Other: ...what

2. Content Creator

A prince who hates humans and absolutely value his personal space and has fear of touch making contents video for those people?

Heh, I won't be surprised if his main account is a private account that has never been made it into public once and took years and hundred attempts before he allowed Prince Gion and Livio to follow and see his posts, while also having absolutely private other accounts likewise.

Here is a thought to give you:

Prince Shintarou considered giving Leon access (as a follower) to his private account before realising what he was thinking and called himself stupid. Plus with the fact that "That idiot probably doesn't even have a social media." thing

 

Alexis

(I am sorry for not doing yours earlier, sobs)

1. Trends

Alexis is constantly aware of social media trends, but he never got obsessed or became a fan to any lof them like Prince Shintarou, with the difference is that his opinions on them as less mocking and proudful, being fans and supporting anyone to have their own preferences and liking if they make them happy

(Ehem ehem)

Sometimes Alex looked at people's status and posts and thought about how everyone had their own trends and favouriteness, while he was just there with almost zero post on social media that got a banger post and followed thing that convenient to him at that time

Sometimes he imagined himself being the content creators or the commenter dressed in cool and trendy outfits, visiting vacation places, clicking and taking pictures of food they went out with their friends

Sometimes he thought about it, and then he continued his duty as the SC president.

As a humble commoner.

2. Content Creator

He and Charles would hold a joint account where they posted about charities and student council members stuff. School stuff. Sometimes he broke the formality and posted he and Principal Evan dinner and lunch pictures together. Pictures of the books and novels he bought.

And then those thoughts come again

What if Alex just had an account about himself and his preference instead?

What if he is a popular podcaster (Alex is not aware of their bad reputation) that just wants to talk about his interests. Or simply a teenager yapping and once a while updated about their happy family and slice of life stuff?

And he never makes these thoughts become real, because in Alex's mind, he was just not that charming and prince-like enough to chase that dream.

 

PRINCE GION

(I am writing this in car trip on my laptop and it feels so calming)

1. Trends

What does Prince Gion the brilliant elegant perfect son of King Italy needs trends for?

What such an interesting thing for commoners to be invested in that you associated it with such royalty.

Of course these idiot princes will be engaged in these kinds of stuff too.

Aurafarms leaving the room.

2. Content Creator.

Prince Gion's contents will be about talking and showing his accomplishments and participate in compatitions in third point of views you would think it was the news or another reporters and stuff posting it.

8 years old prince of Italy wins in the bee spelling competition national. --- Youtube recommedations 8 years later.

Huh, I wonder who posted this--- wait, Prince Gion???

 

Plus, he got his fanbase to post videos about him already.

 

In the sheer formal and professional videos, there is suddenly a 10 minute video of Prince Gion and his bodyguard and friends walking around town feeding stray cats. No music, rarely any edits except to cut some walking, no subtitles, just Gion/Livio holding the camera and feeding cats.

 

LIVIO

1. Trends

Servants cannot use phone to follow trends and check media socials ahhh

 

2. Content Creator.

Same reasonings.

 

But he is the editor and the person who posted Gion's videos on Youtube and social media too (mostly only Youtube they did)

 

This is not fair, let my boy Livio skibidi toilet sigma alpha rizzes helicopter fire emoji slay chairs bombastic sideeyes sybau---

 

PRINCE ANUBIS

(It is kinda funny how Anubis is after Livio)

1. Trend.

His whole trend is Prince Gion, don't talk to me about it.

 

He followed and scrolled down so long ago he made it to the first mention of Prince's Gion not revealed yet name birthy post by royalty news Facebook account.

 

What the hell is bro doing before he became a student? This. This was what he doing.

 

He will also just watch and read Princess Neelam's social media posts... without following and leaving likes.

 

I genuinely couldn't imagine Anu watching TikTok videos with slangs and Gen Alpha humours without blank and eyes wide face.

 

Wait,

wait wait wait

What happens if Anu saw someone else who looks even more like his brother including from the skin colour and country on social media?

 

huh...

 

Do you think he will join drug and herbs community Idk

 

2. Content Creator

Following my brother walking home and this India princess I have strange connection with--- jk jk

 

Prince Anu looks like the type person who watches Youtube and uses Google on guest account man, Idk

 

From the school library and computer rooms, Internet cafe

 

Doesn't strike me as someone who wants to build fan community and be known by others

Oh damn, I already reached the end?

JK JK, TIME TO OG PRINCES THAT GOT KICKED OUT FROM ACADEMY

PRINCE UTHMAN

1. TRENDS 

• Friends

Wait, is Prince Uthman allowed to use a phone? His older brother has a phone, right? Wait, does he? Do them?

 

Who cares

 

For Uthman, I think his definition of 'trend' is whatever his friends are doing and posted about. If he saw Junta yapped and bought manga, he would make a wish and to buy list of the same manga. If he saw Vladimir and others buy specific food and desserts, he would want to buy and daydreaming eating them too

 

That is also why he protested and fought against animal cruelty very hard too, he always saw Jayvyn did 

• #yourmonthyourthing

I think Prince Uthman would eat them up, or at least highly enjoy them. If they all have one giant groupchat, Uthman would just share and send links to these kinds of TikTok trend. The first one is the sad harsh but true video where it goes "Your Month, Your Brutal Truth/Sad Reality" or something, he found it relatable and hit home. He started getting more of these posts on his fyp and he wondered what the months said about their friends are true too. He let it affect his thought and friendship. If the video say someone who was born in this month always feels lonely and underappreciated, then Uthman would find out who in his friendgroup is born in that month to avoid them from feeling the same. Even if he knows not all of them can be accurate, better safe than sorry

 

But cheer up! There are also funny side of this trend too, like what animals, what meme and flower you are! Prince Uthman enjoyed all types of video in this trend.

 

2. Content Creator

I always see Uthman as a gentle, quiet and introvert prince, with his upbringing too, yeah, it suits him

 

When I thought Uthman being a content creator, he is definitely the one to do 'aesthetic vibes" contents. Library aesthetic, restaurant aesthetic, studying aesthetic

 

He would also make an album of calming and soft music for people to listen to, and not mind if they don't give many viewers because he just wanna fulfill anyone's need of them and one person is enough

 

Yeah, too much green flag

 

PRINCE JAYVYN

1. Trend

I think Prince Jayvyn's most favourite trend is fighting and arguing with fake rescuing animal videos and also those cool tip pet tricks which just end up harming the animals in long term. Which is honestly, based. He totally would loudly disagree with owners would make their pets wear clothes

 

Like Prince Leon with books, Jayvan would use his social media to promote and increase animals and wildlife awareness

 

Now, the real questions if what does Jayvyn think of furry and would he join them---

 

2. Content creators

• Animals

He would definitely use his power and statues to promote animal shelters, taking videos and making shorts of cats and dogs who needed to be adopted, which animals' organization to donate, teach people about his country wildfire, the endangered animals

 

He would only reply to comments who fund him or ask for animals' information 

 

• Mukbang

I think he and Vladimir would create and make mukbang videos, then Felix would find it, get excited and bring his phone and tablet to show to everyone. Then he would pretend he is eating with them

 

(sorry if I detail less and the effort drop; I want to get this done already)

PRINCE JUNTA

1.Trends

In all of highness to Prince Junta, bro is one an oddball

HE DEFINITELY HAS SONA AND OCS; FIGHT ME

HE WOULD JOIN ALL FAKE COLLAB (gacha or not) AND MAKE ANIMATION MEME AND STUFF

His trends is not really a trend, but he likes those anime edits and stuff too yk

He definitely had Hanako-Kun Toilet art style phrase, if it is not in present

 

2. Content Creator

OCs and yumeshippers videos. Duh, do I really need to explain?

If you think he will be embarrassed if his friends and brother found out his Youtube acc, you are wrong, bro might look innocent, but he is cheeky and dgaf about the world's opinions (unless they are from his parents, and I can see why ehem ehem, point at Shintarou)

Plot twist, Shintarou moved into the academy because he didn't want his brother to yap about his animation meme, OCs, and yumeships when Junta returned home.

 

PRINCE VLADIMIR

1. Trend

Raises finger

Lower it

 

Hmmmmm

uhhhhh

 

?????

(don't kill me Vladimir fans)

 

2, Content Creator

All I have is that I believe Prince Vladimir is a hardcore happy ending romance novels fan

Bro doesn't read smut or anything like that. In fact, he started reading it because Maria did and she kept blushing and squealing and Vladimir wanted to understand what's up

Past years later, he is still reading ones, he doesn't really a collection of his own, but he borrowed and read any that is abandoned by Maria and other people.

His face is still blank and expressionless but he is actually very invested and squirm at the dialogus.

Pulled up his phone and texted Maria of those scenes happened 

 

I saw him being a content 'creator' who posted a collection of the book he had read and then dumped it there. He doesn't even bother to post hashtags or anything like that, just post and dip (Rip anyone who asked "where can I get the book?" Vladimir is never replying)

Ok, princress first

PRINCESS GINA

1. Trends

• Labubu

Bish, gets this couple out of here. Remember in K5 Gina decided to buy a pair of matching accessories? Yeah, that's my reasoning

 

I think Gina would definitely be a Hello Kitty and Labubu girl (Ciel, she might be a risk, but you like taking risk on my AUs soooo)

 

Gina would also collect and buy accessories that reminds her of her friends and family (BISH, WHY ARE YOU AND CIEL SO COUPLING WHAT THE HELL)

 

Gion will definitely take 100001 screenshots and hang out the picture of the labubu Gina sent to him with the caption "Remind me of you!"

 

While Ciel would just send 282828 Labubu and other plushies to Gina if she sent a similiar picture

 

• Soft pink aesthetic 

I don't actually know about this trend but I bet it exists. It definitely includes wearing fashion style that Gina does and also Hello Kitty franchise

 

2. Content Creator 

I think she and the girls would have podcast tbh, where they talk about what is going with their academy, the expectations and lives on a princess, girls tips and advices stuff like that. Meanwhile there Gina would promote and show her accessories, jeweleries and fashion stuff.

PRINCESS HAN SU JUNG

1. Trend

She joined writer community and novels side of the social media. She is apart of BookTok and like smut and spicy novels, romantasy, etc

She wrote her own diary and journalism

 

She also makes poems and poetry.

Tbh, I don't really Han Su as a trend hopper.

 

2. Content Creator

She made her own work and author page and base because she can. There she sent her WIP, writitng advice, dialogues, and poems and poerty.

 

She had a schedule for what she sent.

 

Example: Poems on Monday

Podcast with friends at Friday night

Book review on Thurday

Writing Advice on Wednesday 

Work sneakpeak on Sunday

Etc

Etc

 

PRINCESS NEELAM

1. Trends

Matcha. She likes drinking matcha. She would make homemade matcha drinks and ice cream. She can also make other drink and ice cream for herself and friends.

 

2. Content Creator

I see Neelam also making cooking videos too, but with India dishes and food that involves herbs and spice.

 

She will also make shorts and TikTok video, etc of matcha and other popular drink she made. She would present them in glasses dishwares.

 

(Yes, Anubis is gonna watch them all)

 

PRINCESS MARIA

1. Trends

• BookTok

I think Maria would like BookTok too.  She is more a paranormal romance reader rather than a romantasy and yes BookTok mostly consists of Romantasy but that still doesn't stop her from doom scrolling on that page

 

Maria knows that despite being nonchalant, Vladimir wanted to know more about her interest, so she only let the pure and safe romance novels to be in his hands, while her non-safe books are hidden

 

 

• Jewelry and diamonds

Maria is definitely a jewelry girls, she probably also has knowledge on diamonds and those kinds of gems they used in jewelry making. Beside from the obvious thing, she learnt about the gems' symbolism, meaning, birthday association with, character designs, etc

 

Her go to buddy to yap about this is Gina

 

2. Content Creator

Sorry not sorry but Maria definitely feels like the type to record her love and marriage life with Vladimir and posts them on Youtube, make a join couple social media account with Vladimir.

 

If Vladimir is not a royalty, they would have somewhere peaceful and don't have many neighbours, then they could focus and make these family/lover videoes following and keeping up with new trends and stuff.

PRINCESS CARLA

1. Trends

Do you know those fairytale rewrite, fairytale made into real life, fairytale etc trends?

Well, heavily inspired by the cover in K24, I think that is what Carla is interested herself. Despite having self-esteem problems, that still doesn't stop her from thinking certaiin fairytale gowns, dressed and aesthetic are so cute and collectable.

 

She would save them in gallery with its own section and buy them but only wore it in a very special occassion or when she was cosplaying with her close friends (doesn't mean they will go to a cosplay con, they can just do it inside dorm and stuff during girls night)

 

2. Content Creator

Yeah, no.

 

I don't think Carla would be a content creator

 

She would rather not

 

I would like to make one for the bodyguards, other prince, etc too but I ran out of ideas

Ok, done! Now let's get into who needs therapist the most (I only make rank for three then others are just eh, you can place them yourself)

So naturally spoilers (I am lazy to list off)

1. PRINCE SHINTAROU/LEON

It is so hard to know which one should be rushed to the therapist first, one of my side said Prince Shintarou, BUT, K42 kinda already put a conclusion on his story. Yes, he still needed time to heal and deserve so much more, but I will say it ends pretty neatly. However, due to his tendency of making enemies and poor health, I still think he really need to meet therapist.

And then there is Leon

Charles might be the team's punching, but mf Leon is the whole writer team's experiment subject

 

At the age of 6 (what the hell is it always 6 yo for you all) Leon was kidnapped for a month, got sick and hospitalized many times then back to his prison and developed a Stockholm Syndrome on his kidnapper whom he still trusted 10 years later and visited in K22 (I am glad Kaoru pointed out Leon's backstory again and said that is Stockholm Syndrome because there is just so much you can forgive and move on)

Then he developed a sleepwalking habit due to his trauma

And now at K45 bro was revealed to be red-green colourblind?!

Bro Kaoru calm the fuck down

 

That's why I call this duo Traumabonding Duo , they both got kidnapped and KIDNAPPED AGAIN. AND, they both also went to meet their own kidnappers and forgave them, Jesus

 

Leon, honey, not telling Felix you one best friend since 6 years old about your colourblindness is not the healthiest thing to do

 

And someone pointed out that means that Leon couldn't even see Felix's red hair and that makes me realise neither Felix's favourite colour. Thank you so much for doing that, I hope your most favourite non-bald character becomes bald (unless they are mine too)

 

Also, does Shintarou still break hell if someone pats and tousles his head? Has anyone tried to do that since Leon?

 

1. Shintarou's story almost is completed; 'almost'. For freak sake it is hard but set a boundary and explain to the main Prince group and Alexis that you are afraid of dark and small cramped places, that you had a terrible trauma during childhood that make you incapable of some tasks and going through panic attacks. It will be okay, Shintarou, it is for your own need and safety too. (Tell them to not cramp the room and be noisy during that too, send only one or two people to check on Shintarou)
2. Meet a fucking therapist Idk what to tell you, Leon
3. TELL FELIX!!! WHY DOESN'T HE KNOW??? IK YOU ARE THE WELL-KNOWN EXPRESSIONLESS LEON BUT HOW DO YOU COPE WHEN FELIX SHOW YOU COLOURFUL STUFF YOU CAN'T SEE??? 

 

2. PRINCE ANUBIS

Yk what, I realised Anu's whole life is more fucked but I am biased, Anu can take one more fuck in his life

 

So let's see

1. Mother is dead
2. Older brother is dead in front of your own very eyes due to your innocence and father
3. Your father is dead 
4. Your remaining relative stole your throne and sent a trope of army to assassinate you making you unable to live in your own country
5. Your only buddy is an assassin who tried to kill you at first (now your bodyguard)
6. The only person whom you very love is due to an unhealthy coping mechanism, and they no longer approve your beast nature and techniques after making sure taking advantage of your loyalty for a very long time

Wow, what a perfect character 

If Leon is Kaoru's punching bag, then Anubis is her 12 yo's OC who got all the trauma 'to make a character stronger'

Kid has a life of a villain and he decided to be one to those who are against his brother, which is a lot (In his head)

Now, let's go list 'minors' things:

1. Your 'brother' whom you very much adored is becoming distant from you by not telling you stuff
2. Tried to drown someone but almost got drowned  by that person instead
3. Tried to drug the same someone but got drugged by him again and sent to a hospital

"Where tf is kid's parents" Dead. They all die

 

Anubis, please don't drug your therapist

Anubis, we are living in two different reality; you cannot drug me too

 

(Skip advice here because I am not touching THAT)

 

     3. LIVIO

Breathe if you have Stockholm Syndrome and abandonment issues, Livio, because you do, you do

 

Your relationship with Gion are starting to get healthy but that still doesn't stop the fact that it is built on kidnapping and abusement

 

Gion might not abuse Livio, but what the fuck could have ever happened during the ages when kid Livio went training (not even double digits age yet)

 

The fact that Livio ends up not hating or feeling any bitterment at Gion after that only means two possible:

1. Stockholm Syndrome
2. Free food, shelter, and clothes Ig

Tbh, number 2 can work under 1 too.

 

Every time I wanna ship them I can't stop thinking about this fact and that literally nobody else pointed it out (I still think Gion and Livio relationship are still the best at what they can do with their situationship)

 

AND THEN,

In K42, Iseya easily just ordered Livio to finish him off. Can you not just like... jump off a cliff? Why you need Livio to do it? Left the key at an obvious place or outside the shelter puzzle room for Livio and be done with it. Not only that, Iseya also kidnapped Prince Shintarou a few days after giving Livio the choice, Livio got to feel guilty for that especially since he also grew up with him and that they had lived inside the same dorm for a while

His mother was also dead when he was a kid and was abusing him prior that 

 

I am not saying you cannot like these ships and characters btw, I like complex and flawed fictional humans too, but this is a therapist needed rank, I need to fully be honest

 

1. Get yourself a hobby bro, Idc that you are a servant, but one day let's just say you (And Gion) are free from these hell get yourself a personality that is not just dedicated for Gion and do your own stuff. Chill. Make new friends, interacted with the friends (Like Alexis!)

        PRINCE CIEL

 Ok, nobody really knows much about Ciel's past except in K5, K23 and K37

 

In K37 Albert said "until I met someone who was considered more "useless" than me" (smth smth) So we can assume Prince Ciel also got overshadowed and overlooked by his parents. Not to mention in K45 his older sister is going to take the throne despite him being the only male so his relationship with his parents are probably as distanced as Albert's (or not as bad since Ciel seemed hostile to them, Idk???)

 

But what I actually want to point out is that WHY IS PEOPLE JUST GLAZED OVER K26??? Ciel was kidnapped by the person whom he saw as best friend who then proceeded to almost strangle him to death

Ik they both got along, and Jayvyn apologized in the end, but holy damn

 

And I have a love and hate relationship with them making Ciel the kindhearted emotional person of the main characters but the fact he continued to be loving and having trusts in people after that is amazing, but my guy does not need a round of applause, he needs a therapist

 

(I genuinely just have issues with good guys whose flaws are only about being gullible and too kind, especially when Ciel was not that much since K1)

 

PRINCE CHARLES

My guy, stop playing God and start meeting relationship therapist or something

 

Dawg, it has been revealed since k16 and only Prince Ciel and Alexis know out of the team but even then, Prince Ciel doesn't actually really know

 

This is lowkey just the misunderstanding trope

 

You are the embodiment of the group therapy that never meets therapy or has a comfort friend

 

You spend your whole life trying to protect others, but do you ever feel safe?

 

Also, your health is probably not the greatest with how you constantly use it as a shield and a punching bag since you are six years old or younger

 

Non-suicidal self-harm be like

 

And control your anger issues in the recent volumes too, although tbf everyone is just angry

 

1. Learn how to be yourself and in your own space without others, stop being dedicated to your friends and find yourself a hobby

2. Stop keeping secrets that you can discuss and have your friends help with and stop being the secret keepers of others

3. PLS keep a back-up plan and tell someone else of your risky plan before jumping into it like that, like your bodyguard Raven and Alex (and maybe Albert pls pls)

 

PRINCE FELIX

The worst thing is that when you meet a therapist, you probably don't think you need it and go through the whole session confused and not understanding

 

Your parents are shit, genuinely shit

 

You deserve better

 

 

PRINCE ALBERT

Ah yes, living 16 years old believing that you are not enough for your parents and living under your older brother's shadow, and all you got are some notes

 

"come back home" 

 

I agree, only because Albert's home is everywhere Alexis, Charles, Ciel, Leon and Felix are, nothing to do with you

 

This is basically like if Harry Potter's aunt and uncle sent him a Christmas card note

 

It doesn't make up for anything at all.

 

Albert running away from home at the age of 18 is always a delulu of mine even before his backstory is revealed

 

Then, his whole ordeal with Lilian

 

All my man wants is a cute romcom plot, but bro got drama after another drama

 

Imagine finally gaining courage to confess and suddenly she lost all her memories of you and hates you for a reason she couldn't even tell--- oh wait, that did happen

 

I want Charles and Ciel to forget Albert too

 

What, who said that

 

Idk, but I think he has 'a little bit tiny' self-loath with how okay he is that with Lilian's treatment in K30, like maybe he was used to that

 

 

 

PRINCE GION

Oh, Prince Gion,

Where do I start with you?

For my whole time of being a reader, I headcanon your parents are dead because they never show up a single time at all until K46, and they play as just many roles as dead parents do

 

For your whole life, bad behaviours and mindset had been enabled. Your boundaries were constantly crossed by your grandpa, media, Anubis, etc

 

You became overprotective of your sister, Gina, and be desperate when she didn't give you attention.

 

Funnily, you met an exact same person like that towards you

 

Maybe if you are born in a commoner family, your life would be perfect, you can play with stray cats all you want and be freed from your grandpa

 

But what?

You won't let go of your current life?

Is it because you had been spoiled by royalty life or are there just too many special bonded people who you met at wrong time but can't let go?

 

Make up your mind, Gion.

 

ALEXIS

The most normal out of them all and yet still not free.

You never get to meet your father until you are 15, while your own Mom avoided you

 

Evan constantly switches between "It is an adult matter" and "You are not a kid anymore" depending on what is good to him, and you are needed to obey them each time

 

In your whole life, you never get a proper explanation for why your father was gone, why your mom 'hates' and doesn't want to spend time with you, why this and that just happens; you don't get a proper explanation why you enrolled into this academy too

 

Life just seemed to keep throwing stuff at you expecting you to adjust and get worse when you don't at first try

 

Why life sounds a lot like your father?

 

1. Meet a family (because your mother needs to be here too) counselling
2. Maybe it is time to admit your two idols (Evan & Charles) are not the greatest, and that you don't need to fix their mistakes

 

SHAO LONG

Dear Shao Long,

     it is time to let go of that 10 years old grudge. It hurts, and it will feel empty moving on to new stuff because that has been your life

You spent majority of your childhood life hating, planning revenge and wishing the downfall of that person who caused yours. Either you just exaggerated when you said you whole life was destroyed because you punched a prince once as a kid, or it is your own mentality that trapped you, it's time to let go

 

You don't need to forgive, or forget, but you need to move on

 

You are a successful person who started your own business and company at the age of 12. You can cook, you can clean, and you can get along and fake-it-till-you-make-it in real world. So why are you letting a thing that happened 10 years ago haunted you? You moved into the academy of that very person you know you hate, forced yourself to get along and pretended to be his friend. This is not just revenge.

 

You are coping.

 

You could have just burnt or overcooked the food in K16, steal, break or mess up their stuff when you were cleaning, but you chose to stick with your reputation plan instead, you had a standard clearly

 

Your 18th birthday is in two years. Stop wasting your life.

 

I think that's all, yay!

Chapter Text

So yeah, Prince Leon x Felix or Prince Leon x Shintarou

If you ask me which I love and pick more, I can't actually tell 😅

Ik I said "point at two obvious implied gay ships" Livion and Lelix (Idk the ship name) but LeonShin is something I really adore too

Ok, let's me make it obvious, beside Livion, I am not looking up to the ideas of reading any ship fics or anything, sticking to duo and friendship only (In my other fandom I don't ship anyone too). I can see and agree to shipping some of them. but for me personally I don't really do it. I don't ship straight ships too except the ones that seemed to be end goals and have many volumes together like Albert x Lilian (thank God they let go of the misunderstanding trope already) and Ciel x Gina (Gion coming to academy literally happens because them two).

But even if they both are canon, I am not gonna read any ships contents of them lmao. Will insert and mention their relationship in my fics and AUs as background information, maybe I will write some fluff and couple moments just like in the canon comic too but you are not gonna see any romantic centric fics from me anytime

(Except Livion, bro, get the fuck out of my brain. I was literally reading a K42 rewrite by Symphonxx and I was skimming some parts and my heart literally squealed and had to take a pause when I saw Livio called Gion "my prince". The thing is that, I can't even tell if that was taken from the actual comic or not because it sounded so fucking them and I want them to burn. That shit jumpscared me, get away from me white boys!)

So, despite being ehem ehem about them, I actually saw Leon and Felix as cute childhood to death friends instead.

You know what is the best part about being me?

When I saw Leon and Felix being paired up together and showing affection, I cheered, because awww, that's so cute! I love their childhood sweetheart relationship so much, they are the kinds of friend who will sacrifice anything for each other, the type of person who one doesn't even need to tell for another to realise he was hiding something or feeling unwell or some sorts. They always know and believe each other.

And when I saw Leon and Shintarou being paired up in latest K48 during the orphanage activites, my heart did a "yes!"  and fistbump because holy hell these two's relationship was too pure and underrated (Underrated is wrong, this is like, the second most shipped or loved duo beside Livion, but everytime I looked at them I thought to myself "This is not enough". So basically, I mean peak). Every single time they both interacted and have scenes together my mouth lifted up and grinned. Every single bullshit they did I eat up. (Yes, Symphonxx, I agree with you, I did not expect to see such little interaction between them in K48, if only we can have more pages without raise of price)

Now, do you know what other thing is the best part about being me?

Noticing Felix being a thirdwheel on these guys, yes.

If I ever see anyone making Felix as an obstacle and a total jerk prick person to Shintarou just so LeonShin can exist, I am sorry, but we can't be friends, because boy can be the most oblivious person.

Prince Leon and Shintarou could make out all I care inside a closet and Felix would still be oblivious as fuck.

They both can come out holding hands to him flushing (Shintarou) and Felix will blur and say "Congratulations! (?)" (emphasis on question mark)

He can be their wedding man and Leon's groomman peaching and making annoucement for them and he walked out of their wedding aisle and still doesn't quite understand what it really meant.

"Oh well, they both happy so what!" His brain ahhh

Felix is supportive alright, but he blurred. Every time someone asked who is Shintarou to Leon he would say "Oh yeah, they are good friends now! Why?" with no malicious attempt forgetting they are married.

Ok, more on canon facts: As an enjoyer of each character and see all duo potential, Felix and Shintarou bonding up is one of the things I wanna see. It is always funny seeing Felix wanting to be nice and friendly to Shintarou like Leon did and got pushed away or 'bullied' by him cuz babyboy still emo. Eventually, we all know they will be good friends with each other (I already see them as friends tbh) with they are already used and well of each other. When I see Leon and Shintarou pop up, I also wanna see Felix and where he and Shintarou's next friendshipness will go. They three are so healthy I can't.

And for Leonlix shippers, Ik I yapped about LeonShin for the first half, but I definitely love the appeal in this first Leon ship too, and remembered every gay joke Kaoru inserted in them lmao

Spoiler In K12 where we are informed same sex dances on ball are frowned upon, but Felix happily dragged Leon down to the centre dancing merrily

Spoiler In K15 where Felix talked about how hand placement on cutting cake meant the hand above the bride(the hand below)'s is the dominant one, and demonstrating it with Leon's hand being above his and Leon reacting later flushed and hitting Felix's head (Felix like usual don't mind)

Spoiler In K19 where they are at Japan trying to spy on Prince Gion, Shintarou and Livio and Leon got idea to send Felix, Ciel and Alexis inside dressing up as girls with little blushes on his face.

And not to mention Felix always looking for Leon's approval and being flushed when praised by him (And Leon always being genuine in his praises)

I can't, you fuckers awwwww

Some ships are just too fluff you will want to make angst crushing fics out of them, enemies to lover to enemies or killing each other style ahh but I genuinely cannot see it in LeonLix.

From all ships in Prince series, LeonLix, LeonShin, and LeonFelixShin got to be the most pausible WHILE also the most healthiest, like holy damn.

Funnily enough, them three got God horrifying princes backstories out all the main characters and still be the healthiest out of them all.

I will repeat again, Leon and Shintarou are basically traumabonding (The healthy one plsss) over getting kidnapped

Spoiler for K22, K35, K42, and K48

I am still waiting for Leon to drop lores about his childhood to Shintarou, like dawg, you can't have them both be so familiar and yet so different and not expand on it. I need to see them comforting each other and for Shintarou to feel sorry for Leon like cmon.

 

With how many times they both keep getting kidnapped, you would expect for them to talk and tell each other about it.

 

(Can't complain, fic ideas)

 

Lowkey, okay maybe high key, I feel like Shintarou would also feel very bad for Prince Felix if he knew the other's upbringing. The idea of them both being alone with each other and Felix broke out crying and Shintarou questioning what to do--- if he should just leave or try to comfort but how can he comfort? He doesn't know how to comfort--- feels so real in my head. Plus point with Leon knowing aftermath or/and Shintarou thought of Leon at the time and tcched about it.

You guys can see my vision, right?

 Plot twist: Felix mega rizzed them both and they all ended up being in a poly relationship due to Felix

The End.

Chapter Text

I hate them.

Them.

If you are reading this, this was when I was in the middle of making part 2 of this collection, that Delulu Part 2.

I was charging my phone and devices, waiting to shower and I decided to reread old Prince Series comics

Volume or K16

This is not a slander for Shao Long or the antagonists in any ways at all, you will be surprised

It came when I love old series so much from its comic cover to comic art style to how cute and teenagerish they look and the colours and Ig just everything with how I can smile love and laugh and then there were them

I didn't remember K16 has so much Albert and Charles moments, I just reread because it was one of my fav and expanded on Charles's backstory and Shao Long

Not even halfway in and Charles already tousled Albert's hair twice, Albert being so apologetic and keeps saying sorry to Charles, Albert owning up by letting him and Ciel did Charles' work in the student council

I can't do this

I can't do this

Every single time there is a new volume, and I am buying it searching it online I hope wishing there is them in it

Accidently found a spoiler of K49 on TikTok comment about how Charles is lifting Ciel/Anu I don't care enough to remember who it was but I think that is when it hits me

Like it had before and over and over again

I was waiting for K49 in hope that Charles and Albert will make a comeback and then that is where I realise that they are never coming back

They are long dead--- I am idiot for thinking they will appear again

If the author and the artist team themselves don't want them come back then why do I?

Where was the last time they ever had the same chemistry as in K1 to K20ish? When was it?

Why am I severely hoping for something that is more dead than a dead horse?

How can I blame this fandom for only having six (6) CharlBert and even less platonic ship fanfics when even the creator had forgotten them? 

Sick, sick I was

I really thought and really hoped I am not the only CharlAlbert and Charles & Albert fan out and that it is an overrated duo because I need to cope with the lack of their contents together in the new volumes with the fan contents

I was so shocked when Albert and Charles were an underrated duo, the parents of the group--- the younger and older brother --- the whatever they are, a bickering but loving couple--- the most healthy shit ever--- go unnoticed, overlooked, gone

Both by fans and creators

They are gone

My comfort and favourite duo

Is this just how it is gonna be?

Loving the first few dozens of the Prince Series comics and then get hurt every time I see them alive and next to each other to fill in nostalgia?

How many fucking time has Charles pat and tousle Albert's hair? That Albert said sorry to Charles? The time they be with each other

They both being the closest and most caring about Alex always alerted about him

Oh yeah, Albert and Alex duo doesn't even exist anymore

Oh

Oh

This is why I hate Charles

This is why I hate Ciel

The older and younger brother dynamic of Charles and Alex before was not enough apparently, they need to take some (or all) of Albert and Alex's to give to the Dad and Son duo I mean--- older bro and younger bro

Who cared about the America & British stereotype duo? Everyone wants a Blonde & blonde duo, it is so much better and has a ring to it

Charles and Albert are too boring, we need more fun

Enemies to friends or enemies to lovers  or frenemies all the way, am I right?

Charles and Gion

Charles and Anubis

I don't care that they exist, I don't care that they want to mature Charles more and let him have his MC moment for the 92283399 times, I just want them both back

I can't stop looking back and remembering their lines even when I had not reread them recently

"Atta boy, Albert" tousling his hair

"Albert is always so outspoke; he rarely keeps his thought to himself"

"He likes to play as peacemaker and smiles but even he won't keep quiet if it is not right" Albert to rest when Shintarou insulted Charles. Him being mad and punching Charles when he acted oblivious. And then when Charles lost temper, Albert was the only who could stop him and drag him away

Ciel: Charles is scary when he is angry he and Felix shook his legs

Leon: No, I am more afraid of Albert

Yeah, Ik, I got some dialogues wrong, but they never left my mind, I remember the panel, the drawing

K12, Charles and Albert leaning to wall next to each other and Charles could immediately tell what was in his friend's head. Then when Albert came back distressed Charles was the one to respond and give advice, the patting and "atta boy" scene came later. And when he realised Albert didn't come back, he went to search for him

In K14, they went to do a part time jobs together as a tour guide and translator. There is no way Kaoru doesn't know what she is doing right?

In K19, Albert was asking angrily at Charles to pay attention when the disguise team failed and Charles just plucked one of his earpods to Albert's ear, and the other immediately shut up and listen

I am listing down from my memory, I had not reread them all in a while

In K34 Ig there is that time where they had to teach Charles, Felix and Ciel and Charles went out coming back to Albert crying

Huh... have they had any moment like that after?

Oh right... K44

hah

My life is a joke

I remember reading K44 and thought "Omg, Albert is getting screentime again and he is a dork" and then it was Charles's turn to sleepwalk and Albert and Alex follow the blonde outside (my heart) and I cheered

I was cheering in my mind

I really truly believed Albert would be the first after Alex to know

"They are together again! Albert and Alex! Albert and Charles! He is about to know!"

What

A

Joke

Albert monologued himself too much that they missed on Charles

He missed Charles' facade reveal because he was monologing to himself

Yay, we got more Charles and Anubis moment instead! Look at their rivalry, ain't it awesome?!

Oh wow, look at that, Anubis's name even started with A like Albert

Step aside Charles and Abert fans, we have a new C and A duo here!

Fuck them

Friend duo is too boring and dull, we need spice, we need teens angst and fun, enemies and frenemies, that's what we need

And that's why Albert and Charles were discarded

Too green flag of a relationship

The vanilla type one

Basic

Inhales

Exhales

In k14, Albert rested his head on Charles' lap, heh. I remember because Albert was having black lines under his eyes and that made me thought of punk or goth Albert, and I genuinely just love their relationship

In K1 to K4, they always share the same lines and dialogues. Ofc, it was just the old humour and stuff with the too many MCs too, but

Hah... Leon compared them to Nobita's parents in Chapter 1 of K2 when Albert made breakfast for him and Alex but not Charles and they bickered

In K2 too, Albert is taking pictures of Alex while Charles supported his speech

Aww, Albert and Alex took selfies together I miss them

In K3, Albert and Charles were playing the bad cop and good cop roles against Collin. Albert as the aggresive cop while Charles was the smart and composed detective, and of course Alex, the OG trio

In K16, Charles seemed so caring towards him and Ciel

He tousled his hair twice there. I had to pause reading somewhere when they reached to eating with Shao Long part because it hurt so bad

They are never coming back.

Cool overthinking observation btw,

When Shao Long's first day there, Albert was wearing a white shirt, Ciel had a black shirt and Charles with grey

It is kinda like Albert is pure and angel while Ciel is demon and dark-hearted and Charles is grey morale and in between. Cool observation, right?

Another observation, they sat in order of Charles, Albert and Ciel at the circle table

That is like Albert the pure being the piece holder in the trio and between Charles and Ciel, reason why they are all together in the first place

I wonder if Albert was the reason why Charles and Ciel met, we never got to know that, have not we?

It will be ironic if they got together due to Albert since they are now a duo and Albert was discarded somewhere

Wdym? Albert and Ciel still existed!

Yeah, and I hate them, they are so stupidly wimpy

Fucking Ciel texted about Lilian to Albert in K31 and bish was so helpless and wimpy about it

I quite noticed that Albert actually bullied Ciel more in the earlier volumes than Ciel bullying, or both equally, but now it is

Yeah

This is shit

A carbon paste of what their old dynamic is like

I don't mind guys having emotions. but they are just so anxious and dumb now

What happened to old stubborn dickhead Albert? The cool one

I called him dick cuz he had a personality back then and it's more than to have a dick prince as your MC in a kid and teen comics (considering they are royalty)

I have always believed that K9 existed because Kaoru wanna showed us that the always frowning and arguing Albert is actually a nice person inside, considering how it started with Albert did not trust Lilian a literally girl younger than him at first and fooled her into thinking he was a poor servant, it really did feel so

Albert was stubborn, in winning an argument and everything even, but also stubborn in fixing his mistakes. I always thought that was his characterisitc

A prince who was always described having a smile and polite manner by others but absolutely flawed and angry boy in his own friend group

Oh yeah, fun fact about that, I always think Albert looked handsome when he was serious or frowning, but cute when he was smiling and happy

I thought that made him special

His eyes used to be deep purple it looked like grey or brown

That was unique too (now no more, they are gone)

Oh yeah, his tsudereness too. Heh, you can say it was almost gone 

Almost because K42 had Albert being a tsundere moment near the end where he said it was not that Ciel was being dramatic but he burnt the dinner last night due to him being concerned

Yeah, I am holding on to that moment, that thread of hope

Before K42, they don't really show Albert cooking for the team anymore

Why can I say?

Even the copycats in K4 of Albert and Charles always spoke and close to each other. You remember that? I do

All Albert's closeness and realisation on Charles was erased so that Charles could have his MC and cool secret side

Fuck K7 I guess

And every volume where they shared bonds and connection with each other, when they existed

So much for Mr. Who Just Wants To Be A Side Character, bro stole every trait and took the lead from Albert, Albert is so dumb now I think Charles stole his brain and IQ

He is so dumb

H eis so dumb

HE IS SO DUMB

Damn, do you remember that evil smirks Albert had in K1 where he trolled bullied Ciel with China made suit?

Or at K3 comic cover

What is up with that?

Pfff.

Wow

What are you talking about?

You have such a HIGH IMAGINATION, that NEVER happened

Albert HAS ALWAYS been a sweetheart kind-hearted person who will help everyone even strangesr and that makes him pretty oblivious and clueless to his surrounding which will invite trouble onto him because good guys NEVER INVENT TROUBELS THEMSELVES, THERE ALWAYS THE OBVIOUS BAD GUYS so his bodyguard Merlin could make an appearance, have a work to do, and that's why Merlin looked up to him so much

Whattttttt

Wdym Albert tricked a homeless girl into thinking he was a poor servant from a wealthy family just because he had a stranger issue and didn't want to fall victim to scammers and gave one bread away?

Don't you realise just how much that contradict the current Albert???

The good MC idol for children and teenagers who are reading this?

He is supposed to be this sweet caring nice weak prince with soft heart that needed guidance and protection because he is the GOOD GUY

Your memory of him is so wrong you must have gotten the wrong prince with brown haired and purple eyes that is named Albert!

Albert didn't mock Ciel, it was all the opposite! Only Ciel made fun of Albert, Albert is only the reactive kind of MC

Wdym he was always outspoken and already so sure of himself? That he could make cruel jokes too?

Dude, he literally had a peak character development + backstory where it focused on his self-confidence and needed to call for help and be stronger! His backstory made sense, expected, and combined with an interesting creative plotline so that excused everything else! I don't understand why you are complaining!

You are so silly

Or maybe you are nostalgia-filled and you hate and can't stand changes

Maybe you are just me

In case you need a fucking reminder that this is a teen audience comic series where it educated people about morales and shit then all fucking MCs will be goodified and turned into a perfect inflawed humans except with some shit like they are super dumb and oblivious and too trustful as flaws except ofc Charles Mr. The Know It All

Yk what I missed about the old Prince Series?

That some plots and problem back then existed because the MCs themselves caused it instead of just fully depending on the bad guys to stir up the plot

Whole k1 is just princes being ignorant and themselves, causing a conflict between

k2 is literally about them being from different cultures and understanding on time and punctuality

K9 happened cuz the princes spent so many shit money on expense that Alex brought them to eat a hotdog which got rich people saw gossiped and made Evan cut down their montly allowance. Albert meeting and bonding Lilian? Yeah, that literally happened on his own self and selfish stubborn attitude. Him chasing and having strong bond with Lilian due to his stubbornness to make up for it. K9 won't never be as good as it is now if we are led to believe that Albert had always been this sweet lending hand prince who helped even strangers--- literally

Ig it hurt me so fucking bad that Charles and Albert duo doesn't exist because that is not the only thing they robbed out of Albert but:

1. His duo with Alex.
2. His tsundere and aloof attitude, that 'Villain' Albert time
3. His superstitious and belief except for a few times 
4. His friendship with Ciel are different now
5. He is not the Mum of the group anymore, the second prince of whatsoever--- it is all Charles and Alex
6. that literally erased Charles, Albert and Alex trio
7. Charles, Albert and Ciel trio are also gone too
8. Albert having so many misunderstandings trope with Lilian he became sexist in K39--- urgh, why am I the only one bothered by this 
9. His reduced screentime. It is always just about Lilian these days whenever he popped out, I mean, they got rid all of his previous duos so yeah, I can see why
10. His active roles had now become very passive and reactive character. No more the Main Main character, just supporting Main character like Felix and Leon
11. His fucking non-bland personality, bish

He is

Charles is with everyone but Albert these days

You want an brothers duo?

Charles and Albert---lexis!

Friends duo who teased and helped each other?

Charles and Albert Ciel!

Friends with a stubborn tsundere?

Charles and Albert Gion!

And just a toxic but hot frenemies or pure enemies?

Charles and Anubis!

There we go! Here is a cover of them here, here are them together in many scenes and panel! Go make edits! Go make a ship! Go go go!

Funnily, I don't Anubis for that, what I hate is Charles and Ciel

Why in the fuck, from the fucker fuck, from the fuck fuck fuck, fuck fuck fuck fuck fcuckc ufcckfukcufuxs that Ciel from all of his main friend beside Alex got to know it first? Why the fuck mf fcuk8ng Ciel is the first person beside Alex for his serious mode to partner up and beat bad guy with? Why Ciel? Why him?

This is a some God damn trash writing that ignored every established relationship of Charles and Albert before, and this series tbh

I am not gonna lie, even I get swayyed away by the epic fight scene and mature topics that I turned a bat eye on it

I got my food, I can't complain

Except I will

Because I am tired, and I am so tired

I am so tired

So here is it, a full rant

A dumb stupid fool on whiny rant

And guess what?

Every time I have this thought about Prince Charles and Ciel's random close friendship I will remember that I used to know this one Charles x Ciel shipper artist in Twitter and I will feel very bad for hating this God damn ship

It is not their fault, neither the characters

Prince Charles x Ciel is a very good ship, it really is. A good duo too, and it will continue to be with the direction the writer is taking

So hey, if you like that ship, you can check that artist out on Twitter, I don't remember the username but yeah

They made Albert x Ciel too if I am not wrong?

So yeah, take your meal

Because I will be here whimpering for all the loss I just went through

My Albert

My two favourite duos

My fav trio

All gone

They all gone

.

(I came back here because of them, I am writing this and everything before, during and after for them. If it was not for Albert, I won't be here. It is for those CharlBert fanfics I won't be here. Thank you for all the six CharlBert fics and the commenters there, you all are the best. The shipper and duo artists and editors in TikTok too. Thank you.

I come here making a promise that I will spread this duo nation and make it a popular duo in this fandom, I come here promosing I will make a long lasting impression and provide more than just good level, me having all the energy and motivation to yap and make this first Prince Series collection due to them

Them them them

And I will make it to the end of my promise.)

Edit: I AM A FAKE FAN, I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT K16 HAS SO MANY CHARLES AND ALBERT MOMENT, AHHHHHHHH

Yeah, I finish reading it lol

Yeah, my tantrum is over

My love for the old art style, damn (except for the side view mouths, that hurts my eyes to see)

Hehheehhe, I finished rereading K12 too

Ahhh, Livio

It is even better than I remember

I MISS OLD ANUBIS SO MUCH

HE LOOKS SO INNOCENT AND LOST???

He was a quiet kid back then (The shock of old readers must have when Anubis called Gion "big brother" LMAO)

Wait, I am supposed to simp for Albert & Charles

Yes, Shintarou, mark that loser G's face

Livio and Gion >>>>>>

Ig Anubis hired the old OG princes that got kicked out because he assumed they would want to take a revenge, but got defeated by power of friendship

Felix being too loud that Shintarou ran away, my guy, rip

Right now, I have like 8 chapters draft in this collection, at 23k words, this is the most patience I have, before this I just finish one draft of a chapter and immediately post but I want to make it right this time

Also, apologies to any Prince Charles/ or & Ceil/Gion/Anubis/Alexis/anyone lovers. Again, I have no issues or problems with you at all, I just don't think Kaoru should just push aside Charles & Albert all time for them (Please give crumbs, I need it, Kaoru)

Also, Albert merches when---

Today as a self-claimed writer who can draw and have lenient parents, I shall make my own Prince Albert merch/bookmark/poster/whatever

Nahh, imagine as a Prince Series fan of a character who doesn't have a merch so you just bring all the character centric volumes into the airport or cafe

Chapter Text

DIDN'T NEED TO TELL ME

 

It was a rare time for Prince England to visit his friend in America, usually it was the other way around.

The day was peaceful and the sun was still up ambering.

Charles brought Albert to a local expensive cafe he enjoyed, wanting him to experience an American coffee pick-up style.

When they were ordering, they already faced trouble as there was no tea option.

Albert: What do you mean there is smoothie but not tea in a coffee shop? Is all American cafe like this?

Charles: No... it is just this particular cafe like that. Also, keep your voice down.

Albert: Oops, sorry.

Soon, the boys made it to the counters.

Charles: The usual, thanks. What do you want?

Albert: I, uhh

Charles: Bro, you just start reading the menu now?

Albert: What, no, I— I...

Albert: Just never have coffee before so I don't know.

Charles: You never drink coffee?

Albert: Non-British ones? Yeah

Charles: Just order, dude

Albert: I will have black coffee then

Cashier: Please wait at the seat

Charles: Ok, thanks!

He waved at the lady then brought Albert to a seat, they fell into the cozy armchairs-like.

Albert: You had been here before?

Charles: A regular customer. Always order the same thing.

Albert: And they recognised you?

Charles: Of course! Sometimes my Dad pick me up too

Albert: That's crazy!

Charles: It is just called bonding with neighbors. This shop is close to my home so why not?

The cashier called their order number.

Albert took out his golden card but Charles paid for them both.

Albert looked at the number tag on Charles's drink.

Albert: They didn't use that name calling they messed up with?

Charles: This is not Starbuck.

Charles: Come, let's walk outside.

Albert: Oh? Uh sure.

Quickly, ten minute was lost in their idle chat and walking around the shop street. Charles' servant eventually called him to get back (inside the car they rented). As they were turning back, Albert realised something.

Albert: Where is my drink?

Charles: What? 

Albert: My black coffee, where is it?

Charles: Is it not with you?

Albert: I thought you will carry it--- I left it at the counter, oh no.

Charles: Why would I be carrying it?

Albert: I forgot. I am sorry, I am too used to my servants carrying it around for me I thought---

Albert paused

Albert: No, that's wrong. I don't mean it in that way. I am not saying that you are my servant--- By Joves, I am sorry.

Albert: I will go get that coffee. That costs $35, I am so sorry, Charles, I---

Charles: Dude

Albert: Don't worry, you can go. It is really my fault, I forgot. Again, I am sorry

Charles: Dude.

Charles: Albert, it's okay. 

Albert: No, it's $35, I need to go and get it

Charles: It's too late, our transport is here already

Albert looked at where Charles pointed. Albert didn't look more calm.

Albert: Again, I am so sorry, let me just, I swear I will not---

Charles grabbed Albert's arm.

Charles: You are being a worrywart. It's just a drink, it's okay.

Albert: But... it is your money.

Charles sighed.

Charles: You care too much, you know?

Albert was taken back.

Albert: Now what is that supposed to mean?

Charles: Let's just go home. 

His hand slipped to Albert's hand and now they were holding.

Albert: But---

Charles: We got my house to go! I have not shown you my newly renovated room!

Albert: Your room got renovated?

Charles: Yeah! That's what I wanted to show you! Let's go now.

Albert's mind was distracted from the drink and he let the blonde took him to the rented car. The chauffeur guided them inside.

As Albert and Charles took different side doors with their own servants, Albert asked 

Albert: Is there any drink?

Servant: Sorry, Prince Albert, but we ran out of one.

Albert: It's okay.

Charles watched. The car started moving.

Albert was looking down at himself not wanting to be tempted and ask for Charles' coffee if he was drinking it.

Charles: You want some?

Albert: Want what?

Charles: My drink

Albert: But it's your

Charles: Yeah, that's what I said

Albert: What?

...

Albert: Can I really---?

Charles: Yeah, just take it, don't finish it all

Albert: Yeah, of course

Charles: Hold it for me, I need to call my Mom

Albert: Oh okay

Albert took it nervously.

Charles: Yeah, Mom, it's me.

Charles looked at window, continuing: Can you prepare our guest some black coffee? The finest one? Yeah, it is for my friend, the Prince of England. You will get it done? Ok, thanks Mom!

He hung up the call and looked beside him. Albert was still holding the cup undrunk. The ice was melting. Charles wanted to point out but Albert cut.

Albert: It is yours, so you should take the first drink. It is manner.

Why do you have to be so dedicated to manner? --- Charles

Charles: Ok, fine. 

Charles took a drink, leaving Albert to take the second gulp.

And did he take some big one. Charles didn't want Albert to overreact again, so he just let him silently. When Albert returned it, it was half drunk already.

 My drink --- His poor heart said.

Albert: Thank you. Now, what is the bedroom renovation you having?

Oh yeah, I made that up. How to explain? --- Charles

Eh, might just let it be--- Charles

.

.

.

Albert: Thank you very much, Mrs

Charles' Mom: You are welcome, you two can take it to upstairs

Albert: Oh, we can?

Charles was already grabbing the tray of desserts and coffee.

Charles' Mom: Of course. You are my son's friend.

The two boys took it to Charles's bedroom (Well, Charles did, Albert just walked)

Charles: Here is it, dude.

Charles suffered having to open the door while carrying a tray--- Albert thought it would be rude for him to enter first.

Charles: What do you think?

Albert: What do I think... It looks exactly the same!

Charles: No, it doesn't! Look again!

Albert narrowed his eyes.

Albert: I really can't see...

Charles placed the drink first knowing what would happen.

Charles: It is the window! It is not closed the last time you were here, remember?

Albert: ...

Here it comes... --- Charles

Albert: What kind of renovation is that?!

Albert hit Charles.

Charles: Ow!

Albert: You and your dry joke...

Be patient, Charles --- Charles' mentality

This time, Albert didn't wait for Charles to sit himself at his bed.

Charles immediately took the opportunity to serve Albert the black coffee.

He waited patiently for Albert's reaction. Albert digested.

Albert: It's good, but I prefer Earl Grey Tea better.

He said mindlessly, throwing off Charles with his attitude.

But at least he was back to his usual self.

Albert: Hey... why are you watching me like that?

Charles: Nothing, it is just, there has been a crumb on your face all this time.

He pointed.

Albert: There is WHAT?

He quickly took off his handkerchief to wipe his face, looking at the clothes after every wipe to the see the leftover. There was none.

Albert: But we have not eaten food yet?

Charles just smiled usually with his eyes closed, giving flower field vibe.

Albert: You.. you are just as bad as that Ciel! Urgh!

It is not my fault you are so easily tricked --- Charles thought in a way that surely would award him a hit.

Albert didn't notice when it exactly happened, but Charles had grown bigger, and he hated it.

 

(This is the part where it has cursing (humour))

 

All his life he was pretty sure Charles was just a bunch tiny inches taller than him, now it felt like there was a hand difference.

Still, that didn't stop Charles from being the prankster he was!

That memory from eight years ago slowly came back...

Albert was hovering to the kitchen top shelf, it was already open but the prince struggled to take it.

It's all that Prince Ciel's fault! What kind of prank to hide my chocolate in tall places! --- Albert, on his toe

Charles came into the kitchen.

Charles: Albert? What's chu doing?

Albert: It's Ciel! He...

Albert quickly explained.

Charles: Ooo. Want me to help you?

Albert: Yes, please do!

Albert stepped aside to let Charles to take the chocolate for him, nonstop complaining about Ciel.

Charles: Here, dude

Albert: Thanks---

Charles's hand batted away and the chocolate raised above his head, full arm length.

Albert blinked.

Charles: But you got to let me take a bite.

Albert: Wh-wha- what

Charles: I want a bite

Albert: And what make you think I will give you! Go buy yourself one, you nitwit!

Charles: Because I help you and returning kindness is nice

Albert: Not with you! You sly old fox!

Albert: I am just getting bullied by you two.

Charles: Aww, don't be mad about it, Alb, it's just a chocolate.

Albert: What?

Charles: I mean, you must have many copies of this chocolate around the house.

Albert: No, I mean, what did you just call me?

Charles: Alb?

Albert: Yes, that! What's up with that?

Charles: Oh, it's just a nickname. I don't know *shrug*

Albert: Nickname...?

Charles: ... Don't tell me you don't know what a nickname is...?

Albert: Of course I know! It is a short form or a new name you give to someone!

Charles: That's right. So why are you surprised?

Albert: I am not surprised, it's just, my Mum calls me Bert. Not Alb.

Charles blinked.

Charles: Bert? B-E-R-T?

Albert: Yeah, that. 

Charles: That sounds...

Albert: I know, I hate it. But Mum won't stop calling me that in front of guests.

Charles: Well... if you don't like it, I can call you Albert, or Alb.

Albert: Don't you hear me? I told you my Mum calls me Bert.

Charles: Yeah, and I am calling you Alb.

There was a pause like the universe had rearranged in Albert's brain.

You can do that???  --- Albert

Charles: You ok?

He lowered his arm, starting to feel tired.

Albert wasted no time and grabbed it.

Charles: Hey!

Albert: Don't hey me! It is my chocolate after all.

Albert hmphed, turning and walking around to the door.

Was that planned all along? No way, right? --- Charles questioned.

Now, back to eight years later, both princes were now 16 and students of Momos Academy for Boys. Feeling intruded by Prince Charles chatting with Alex, he hit him in the head. 

Charles: Ow! Was what that about?

Albert: For stealing my chocolate, that's it!

Charles: Since when I...

Alexis panicked between them, vouching for Charles' innocence. Tho, the two princes knew it was unneeded.

Ceh, that Alb nickname was just a joke and I took the bait --- Albert as Charles never called him that since.

After dinner, Charles caught Albert.

Charles: What is it?

Albert: What what?

Charles: For earlier

Albert: Oh, I just feel like punching you

Charles got into thinking

Charles: Is it because I bought the wrong movie tape the other day for movie night?

Albert: I still don't know how you get that wrong

Charles: Because I discarded all the fish bones under the table?

Albert: You did what?

Charles: Jk, that was a lie

Albert checked under the dining table. The spot was empty

Albert: Tell me what you want

Charles: Is it not me who supposed to say that?

...

Charles & Albert: Pff...

Charles: Wanna grab a drink?

Albert: Sure

They both grabbed themselves coffee and walked to the living room (with no intention of staying up the night, they were just an idiot)

Felix was vacuuming the room; they just ignored him and sat down.

Charles: So, why are you mad about?

Albert: You are not gonna believe it

Charles: Oh wait, are you going to tell? Let me guess

Albert: Guess?

Charles: Yeah, hmm, is it because I hid Ciel's make up box and he thought that was you?

Albert: I know that was you who did it! Just a lack of evidence

Charles: Ay

He pointed two-gun hands

Felix: Do you mind?

Charles: Oh, no, go ahead

Felix lifted the table unevenly and spilled the drink and glasses to the floor

They both just zoned out at the usedness of this

Albert: I am gonna be honest to you

Albert: I still don't like American coffee brand; they just taste bad

Charles: Woah okay, you should apologize now

Albert: Why? For having a taste?

Charles: Did you even try? They both tasted the same for me!

Albert gasped

Albert: You need to apologise for objectively having a shit tastebud

Charles: Apologize for the objective bad temper then

Albert: Two words

Albert: Shao Long

Charles: Fuck you

Charles: I said "mind you" btw---

Albert: I am not deaf yet

Charles: Emphasis on the yet

Albert: It is going to be you first before me with that eating

Charles: Dude, that's too far

Albert: Ok, sorry

Albert:

Albert >:0

Albert: Apologise for making me say sorry

Charles: No

Albert: Apologise!

Charles: No, that's actually wounded my heart

Albert: Ok, sarcasms aside, did that actually get you?

Charles: Nah, I am just pulling your leg

Albert: Bish, fuck you

Charles drank air cup

Albert: What are you doing

Charles: I am going to be airholic by the amount of time you curse at me

Charles: It is a joke

Albert: Air sign you

Charles: Like, middle finger?

Albert: Anything

Albert: Screw your mother

Charles: Hey! That mother gave you drinks while you are at my home

Albert: Yeah, and they were pretty bad, Charles

Charles: I remember you keep drinking one after another one

Albert: It is called manner

Charles: Where is your manner when you are with me?

Albert: You are the one who told me to break it off

Charles: Fuck! 

He slammed the air cup on the imaginary table

Charles: Where is our table

Felix: With me. You want it back?

Charles: Yeah sure

Felix: What about the cup?

Charles: Yes yes

Felix: Here

He pushed the table with the glasses back to the center, but his power scale was too strong it slipped and crashed to the window instead, the glasses didn't break

Charles: Felix,

Charles: Thank you

Felix: No problem!

...

Charles: You wanna watch a movie?

Albert: This is so brainrot

Charles: Canon Albert won't say that

Albert: Would we curse?

Charles: Absolutely!

Albert: Of course you will say that!

...

Charles: Did I dress wrong?

Albert: No

Charles: Is it because I am American, Albert? Are you racist?

Albert: What? No!

Charles: Well, if you are not racist you will accept my apology because hatred is a no to world peace

Albert: That doesn't even make any sense!

Charles: It does

Albert: I have to put up with this for 10 years --- And you had not even apologised to me yet!

Charles: Hey, look, I always considering you punching me at the head is my way of apologising

Albert: Then why do you want to know so much?

Albert: Are you talking behind my back with Ciel?

Charles: Your overthinking is amazing

Albert: I should go get an Oscar

Charles: Go buy one

Albert: Good idea!

Albert: Hey Paul, this is Albert, I got a request

Albert: Do you know remember Charles' sixth grade textbooks? Throw it out please

Charles: Why do you still have my sixth grade's stuff

Albert: It is called creating myself a paradox

Albert: By not telling you much earlier but rather waiting for you to be at my house at convenient time I can save myself from awkwardness by you just saying, "Hey you forgot your stuff at my place last time" and brought you the room. But because I am so focused on the abstract of the plan I forgot my intention and I needed to wait for the next time you came again, and it will be a repeat

Charles: Or you can call me the next day and tell me I left some stuff

Albert texted

Charles read

Albert; You left your burger at my room want to throw it?

Charles: You are just bored, aren't you?

Albert: Well, I can say the same for you

Charles: Give me a hint

Albert: For what?

Charles: You know what

Albert: It happened a long time ago

Charles: So anything between yesterday and 10 years ago, how helpful

Albert: Ok, it is really really long time ago

Charles: Any specific range?

Albert: When we were kids, long before

Charles: Is the chocolate related---?

Charles sat upright

Charles: You are mad cause I called you Alb and never again?

Charles: That was why you were mad?!

Albert: How--- why do you still remember?!

Charles: Because

Charles: I am pleading my innocence 

Charles: I had called you Alb more than once

Albert: You--- you had?

Charles: Yeah! You were just deaf!

Albert : O

Felix: Ok, hold up, Albert, just to clarify, is it because I took a giant bite of your cake this morning?

Albert: You what?!

Felix: And that Ciel also took a bite?

Albert: WHAT?

Felix: Oh, that's good then! I am going to continue vacuum

Albert: Alright

They both went back to their awkwardness

Charles: You want me to continue calling you Alb?

Albert: You don't need to, the name was outdated

Charles: Pff, your face is so red

Albert: Sh---shut up

Charles: Alright, I understand

Albert: What do you understand?

Charles: That you don't need to tell me

He pressed a finger to his mouth, keeping it low

Albert just stared flushing.

(Author's note: Yeah, I got sidetracked from the height thing, LMAO. Also, if you feel like you had seen a 'Charles and Albert chocolate thing where the former pretended to help but wanted a bite and Albert hit him 10 years later for that' video on Youtube--- you might have, because I did send that video on Youtube--- with my own voice acting and beginner drawing (no regret, at all))

Albert: It is not like I like you

Charles: Mm

(A brotherhood rewrite of It's Not Like I Like You!! by Static-P) (Go ahead and listen to that song in Youtube while reading this)

Charles' experience befriending from little kids to before Momos Academy to during 

A few weeks before Momos Academy, 16-year-old Albert was practising his piano alone in his music room, having just done a lesson with his tutor.

The door was left open and Charles, dazzled by the music came inside.

Charles: Yo, that's pretty good!

Albert: What--- No one asked you!

(Albert: What are you doing here?!)

Charles: I've got myself just a little bit of time that I wanna spend with you

Charles: But maybe I'll never get that chance to dance that advance with you, oh no

Charles: Cause you're always hitting and kicking and putting me down 

*Insert thousands comic panels of Charles abuse in background*

Albert from K1 laughing at Ciel: Ehehehe~

Charles: I really hope you are not a bad guy

Charles & Albert growing up: But I keep seeing you sticking around like you can't get enough so I stay, and I wonder how our lives would feel if I am attracted with you

Charles: As of now though, 

Albert: Why are you following me?

Nothing but closed doors --- Charles

(Charles: I thought we are going to canteen?)

Charles: My bro's a dere, tsun-tsundere

Charles: Just agreeing with him gets me a punch in the head

Charles: But if I should be against him, he starts to chase (during Albert & Ciel's fighting)

(Charles: Why do I still get it?)

Albert: Hey! You are supposed to take my side!

(they were arguing inside elevator with other friends there)

Charles: Oh no, the wild cat has started to be mad again

Albert: Stupid nitwit! Take it back

Ciel was snickering in the back, Albert turned to him

.

.

. 

Charles as they were walking towards their usual split up spot in the shopping street: Hey, so... how am I a nitwit again?

Albert: How am I cat?

Charles: Well, uh,

Ciel: Because cats are self-centered! Like you!

(Albert: Are you making fun of Elsa?

Ciel: Gasp, how did he know? Run!

Albert: Come here!)

Albert was standing in front of the grocery store, holding a letter as a girl cashier was working

Charles: Can you not just go ahead? You are so headstrong

Albert: Tch! You don't understand! Go away! So just leave!

Ciel in teasing tone: Just talk to her, then you will see

Albert: That's not fair! It is not easy, you idiot!

Charles just smiled at them both

Albert: I got myself just a little bit of time that I wanna spend... ON NOT YOU!! 

He glared at Charles and Ciel, the latter whom was smirking at him

Albert: Cause maybe I am afraid you will say that it is not okay with you

He started reminiscing the days they went through together at the island

Albert:Oh-oh, cause you two, always laughing and joking, you guys act like a clown!

Albert: And I hope you mean what you said

Charles: I do

Albert blushed

Albert: And I wonder what they (parents) would think if I let my pride down, let it sink--- could we stay like this forever and live our lives in gentle bliss?

Charles: We could!

Albert: Gah! I am not talking about you---! I don't need a prince charming.

Albert: I am not a dere! A tsun-tsundere! I have a golden heart I am not that mean!

Him helping Lilian and giving charities.

Albert: I am not blushing, I was just sweating, and got extra Vitamin D!

His excuse as Ciel and Charles watched him turned red talking to Lilian

*Insert random fact about sun giving Vitamin D, but that information couldn't be used now because it is afternoon already and it only lasted in morning*

Lilian: Hehehe, your smile is really cute though!

Albert: You will never see it behind my punching bags 

Hiding behind Charles and Ciel.

Ciel walked away, knowing he was failing again

Ciel: I guess nothing happens again today

Charles went away with Ciel and Albert who noticed followed them both home

(I skip the stuttering part because don't really see it in them, instead it has a scene of them just walking home with music and orange sky in the background)

They arrived dorm and it was after dinner.

Everyone was sitting in the living room and Albert went to Charles

Albert: Hey hey, are you free during New Year ?

Charles: Yeah but ho, why do you want to know?

Albert: It's not like it's about you, okay...?

Charles: Alright cool, where do you want to go?

*Comic panels being comic panels and they explored*

Charles: We could ride a rocket and fly, fight an alien and go land on the moon

Albert: No, that sounds really stupid

Albert stabbed Charles with his bubble speech

Charles: Okay, well, how about a... Classy horror cinema experience? Or a haunted house till midnight? So then we can test our friendship point!

Charles half-hugged Albert from the back

Albert: And risk seven years of bad luck? No way!!

Charles: Ba da ba da ba

Albert: O-kay, I think you're a little dense--- I really do not like all this talk you have about friendship and peace.

Albert: Bla bla bla!

Albert's hand mimicked

Albert: So listen here, mate--- It is all just a big fantasy you see inside of your head! No! So just forget it!

Charles: But... nevermind

Albert: Bla bla bla bla!

He turned and folded his arms.

Alexis stole Albert's attention, noticing Charles' downspirited. Meanwhile, Charles found a letter at the dining table where Albert had seated before.

Is not this love letter for Lilian? --- Charles, opening it without second thought.

Alex, who saw, stared, making Albert looked back and sped off to Charles.

Dear brother Charles Washington, 

     On XXth next year, would you like to come to England and celebrate New Year Eve with me at xxxx palace?

       Signed, 

        Albert xxxxx

Charles immediately thought of Albert's older brother, Nolan, at the greeting, unrealising Albert had arrived behind him and smacked the hell out of him. Alex immediately panicked, while Felix and Ciel just rooted for him.

Albert: I am not a dere---

Charles: My bro is a dere--- & Ciel: Dude is a dere! (started laughing)

Ciel: Tsun-tsundere!

Albert: Hey, I can hit your head even from here!

Albert smackdowned Ciel to floor, Felix cheering for him while Charles and Alexis watched unapprovingly.

K.O

Albert: Where did we leave? <<< murderous aura

Charles: I suggest---! (changing topic)

Charles: Why don't we just have a sleepover at your place when it is holiday?

Charles asked, including Alexis

Albert: Pff, you will end up just being lost!

Charles: Oh please, can't you just say yes already?

He and Alexis made sad puppy faces.

Albert; Ok, fine! I will just be your two's tour guidance, head-aching...

Albert glanced and saw Ciel was still on floor, pulled on a marker by Felix earning Albert to smirk-laughed.

Later,

Felix: Woo! Next holiday we will have a sleepover at Albert's place!

Albert: Hey! Since when you are invited?!

Leon: It is still too early to plan... two weeks... Please focus on study!

Ciel was left forgotten on floor.

(Author's note, this song brotherhood version has been in my head for so long! I wanted to make an animatic music video with just subtitle and in video lyric change (the song is still same) but it never comes, so I am glad I can put it here, hehe. A year or so.)

This was the last one.

 

He called.

 

Prince Albert was going outside, he was dressed from head to boots in brown, all different shades.

Leaves had fallen, tree had grown dark, it was autumn.

His steps were scrunching the deserted marble leaves, making a manmade path across the ground of the school yard, like a snow trail.

In what a somewhat glittered afternoon, Albert's heart was shivering, his breath was carbon mist, the scarf wrapping his neck did nothing to help.

He was not alone.

Worse.

He felt lonely.

The icy of the autumn and soon December had taken and squeezed the warmth of humans from his heart like a lemon.

Presenting it in a glass cup and half-filled ice.

In the loneliest days, he was whom Albert called,

So he called,

There was a note of delay in the act of picking up the call

Albert: Hey

Charles: Hey

Albert: Where are you?

Charles: Nowhere, just walking out with Ciel

Albert: Oh

Charles: Still taking your evening walk?

Albert: Yeah

...

"Be back before dinner", was what Charles supposed to say after

 

There was just static noise filling up on either of their phones.

Albert: You can tell me

Charles: What?

Albert: I said you can tell me, you should have long time ago, to be honest

Charles: Is it because my and Ciel's relationship is becoming closer

Albert: Yeah, honestly

Albert: But I just want somebody to blame. I think it is really us

Albert: We have not talked to each other so much anymore. We have not done anything

Charles: Why? Would you prefer us fighting and arguing?

Albert: Yeah, we have always been like that

Charles: That does not suit anymore. The direction of our life has changed. We can't just keep depending on that nothing will change

Albert: But what if I don't want it to change? I mean, why do we need to change?

Charles: Because life is getting tougher, we need to show better examples

Albert: To who?

Charles: You know who

Albert: Because we are princes? But since when being a prince stop us from lacking?

Charles: You don't get it

Charles: I am wrong for thinking you will, and the worst is that it is not your fault

Charles: How can I blame you?

Charles: Are you crying already?

Albert: No

Charles: Heh, I always know you are wimpy inside

Albert: Charles...

Albert: Tell me.

Scratches of walking and clothes meddling. Albert halted.

Charles: I don't know, can I? It is not really up to me who makes that decision. Besides, do you think that if I told you earlier anything would have changed, that we won't grow apart?

Albert: We won't be this at least

Charles: What is this this?

Albert: A shadow of what we once be, a part

Albert: Am I even calling Charles? All this time I have been talking to you, and is it you?

Charles: I can say the same. Are you Albert, or are you just a voice of someone else?

Albert: Well

Charles closed his eyes at the other side; it was the face of someone who had accepted.

Charles: We are still friends, Albert, we just don't talk to each other that much anymore and that's ok.

Albert: Is it really tho? Is it all really going to be okay?

Charles: Of course

Charles: You have grown into your own path, and I have grown into mine. We hardly met each other, but we are still from the same track

Albert: It's just that

Albert: I don't feel like it was all going to be worth it

Albert: What is the point of us doing all of these if we are just going to be different later?

Charles: Albert, everyone will drift. It is not the end result that matters, it is the progress

Albert: We lose the progress halfway, and soon enough it would be a quarter if we don't do anything about it

Charles: Do what?

Albert: Stop the drifting away!

Charles: Nobody is running away. We are here, and we will appear when you need help

Albert: I don't want to be just your friends when in trouble! I want to be your end game. I am tired of us just being in the same dorm and classroom but not talking; I am tired of us being friends but not showing! I want us to be best friend ever! Again! Like old times!

Charles: ...

Charles: Then I am afraid I can't do that

Charles: You too can't

Charles: You know we didn't have any power to do anything about it.

Albert: And why can't we? We have done it before

Charles: Because the ultimate choice is not in the hand of us. Never been. We are lucky enough to have the chances over and over again but now it is time to let go because these feeding hands are gone

Charles: Hey, look up

Albert looked up.

Charles: I am not saying it is God, but there is a hand up there that is controlling us, and they made the choice. They are invincible, while we are uncovered. They made us. They overlooked us.

Charles: We are gone.

Albert: Then, could we at least be together together here?

Charles: We can't, because it makes no difference

Albert: And what if I say it will make all the difference? It makes all the difference to me.

Charles: Then it won't at the end. We are not just meant together you know? You got your Lilian, and I got my hero complex thing

Albert: That's the first time you tell me

Charles: I won't even need to tell you if you are not overwritten, Albert. You would figure it out soon enough

Albert: But I never get to

Charles: Because it is not meant to be

There was a tearjerking inhaled from the brown.

Albert: I miss...

us.

Charles: I miss all of us too, but you don't need me anymore. There is no part of you that needs me

Charles: I need to be there for someone who needs me, like Ciel

Albert: But I need you

Charles: You know what type of needs I mean. If it is just for nostalgia and showing how much friendship we have, then that is not a reason

Albert: Why?

Charles: Because I am too busy for all of those things now

Albert: Are you even with Ciel right now?

Charles: I don't know. What are you able to know?

Albert: I am afraid

Albert: What if one day I get to know but it is nothing like i expected

Albert: No more brothers us, no more Albert and Charles, what if we don't even get our own special time and we are just mashed with others? 

What if there is really no more of us? What if that is the plot they have stored for us and it's bad? What if Charles and Albert are never the same ever again?

What if we are running out time? Ink? Script? What if...

Do you miss the old you, Charles? I do

Charles: ...

Albert: That childish dumb you?

Albert: You tried so hard to play as a peacemaker, and we would beat you up for that, we still love you of course

Albert: Have you stopped playing and now chasing it? Is that why you are so busy?

Albert: Has the world really become dark, or are you just handling it alone?

Albert: Don't you ever feel like it was too much? That this is just too much for one good guy to beat? Why don't you tell us?

Albert: I don't know what you have done, I didn't get to know, not yet, hopefully one day I will, but I can already tell you are not a bad guy. I know you, you are my friend

Albert: Friend, we are friends forever, right?

Albert: Charles?:

...

Albert: Can you at least answer me this?

Albert looked out the branches of the nest, bird rising, blending in with the colour of environment.

Albert: It always feels like it is only me who is one holding all of our memories together. Do I need to let go?

Albert had to stop himself from crying.

Charles: Well, if that is what we need, then yes, let it go

The brown took multiple breath, each getting razor sharp.

Albert closed his mouth, bitter questions incoming.

He had to hold himself. 

Albert: Charles...

The blonde should have said :"Yeah?"

 

Albert: Do you wanna grab a coffee?

THE END.

Chapter Text

Chapter Text

Albert likes drinking tea, but he also has cat's tongue; how does he drink the tea hot then? Does his British gene stabilise it or what? I never saw him drinking tea with ice and they are always hot

Wait a minute

Albert can't stand hot food, and Charles can't stand cold shower. Omg, they are literally opposite temperature-likers duo 

Do they assert dominance against each other by drinking hot coffee and taking cold shower

Tululu they both fought with each other and Charles bought a present and it was a hot extra hot hot hot hot tea as an apology gift and everyone else is confused why Albert is choking him instead of being grateful

Does Albert use a microwave to heat his tea (That Reddit argument reference yes)

My brain is so amazing

If both Ciel and Gina went to a haunted house and both end up being lost then back to each other then got jumpscared by a crowd of ghosts and and Gina called Gion and they are one (1) hour away from the exit, would Gion save Gina first or throw Ciel onto the ghosts first? Would the ghosts be afraid of Ciel?

Is Albert becoming more London because he said he would bring a knife to the island in special 10th anniversary comic

Do you think when the main princes went to a camping Prince Ciel would shout first because there are bugs or would Prince Ciel shout first because there is no Wifi and data or would Prince Ciel shouts first because

Do you think Prince Uthman has ever gone to America and asked Charles why is it not snowing when it is 10th August

In case if any of you thought I am having a midnight thought right now I would you all to know it is 5:34 pm in my place right now and that there are no such things as mistakes, only happy accidents

Do you think Prince Ciel ever has 100 moments where he is just talking to himself because his gut instinct told him that we, the readers are seeing and reading them at that moment, but the gut lied?

Do you think Prince Ciel--- why the heck most of them are just Prince Ciel--- ever expected to get kidnapped by his own friend, like in K5 he was most normalised by this and could get through ropes easily, that must be quite a shock

Do you ever think he looks at a rope and think...

Do you ever wonder what if all the OG Princes have a WhatsApp groupchat for the top floor dorm because Alex proposed that idea and everyone just forgot about it after

"Oh man, if only there is one way to contact with my friends again" Check your WhatsApp dude

Prince Shintarou is the type to join thousands of Discord servers to lurk and then gets mad when he got tagged with everyone tag for server annoucement that he never ever reads but also don't want to leave any of the servers--- yeah, that is not a question

Do you ever think that Prince Albert had done a fucked up in his childhood and he just put the blame on Prince Ciel and Prince Ciel who was so used to doing the fucked up to Albert just thought "oh yeah, I did that" and nobody ever found out it was Albert

Do you think Albert has more "Mum instinct" or sharp ears because he could recognize Vladimir's voice through his disguise in K12 or others just have a deaf ear

ALSO, DO YOU GUYS REALISE THAT IN K25 WHEN LIVIO WAS SUPPOSEDLY HAD TO LEAVE THE ACADEMY FOREVER HE WAS WEARING THE SAME OUTFIT AS THE FIRST TIME HE APPEARED IN K6?

I NOTICED IT RIGHT AWAY FIRST READING K25

Seriously, take a look and compare your K25 and K6, the clothes are basically same except K25 has Livio's shoulder fur lighter gray

Something about that is so clever detailed and bittersweet to me

The outfit you wore for your first day is also your last day's

I missed Livio's hairstyle from earlier volume, cute!

In K19, Shintarou was wearing full on white clothes from head to toes while Junta has black outfit--- again, symbolism for 'angel vs devil' except their places are swapped and revert the expectation

Sure, those kinds of stuff could always just be coincidence, but artists, writers and story makers tend to put this detail and symbolisms in these characters designs and story

Now I am gonna yap about my favourite books and comics covers, ones that I found absolutely pretty and just easily carries the storyline to be my favourite volumes:

1. K19

This K absolutely wins my heart

When I first saw this I was like "SOOO PRETTYYY" and I just knew this is gonna be one of my most favourite and rereadable volume (And I am right!)

No matter what or how long now, the cover never fails to make me just grab this book admire its beauty and reread

The story and topic inside being sweet, funny and cute also help a lot (and I love the old art style so much, you will forever be in my heart) 

I seriously love these kinds of story and volumes Kaoru wrote, my heart

This volume never left my mind

No matter what, this still is the gorgeous volume I have ever seen

2. K16

Said it in the "I hate them." and would say it again, my friend thought it was pretty dull, but this still is a banger to me

They both have culture exploration and difference, I think I know my pattern

3. K3

Not as pretty as others but it still so good looking, you can say I am just being biased cuz it has Prince Albert and you are probably right; but it also has the aspects of history and cultures

I think i just like the ideas of princes exploring and discovering new

Guess my favourite school subjects

4 is K9

It is an Albert centric, it is not related to culture and history now but it still focused on the how the princes live vs commoners, and I found the plots to be simple but intriguing and humorous to follow through. Again, the art style really helps, they just look teenagarish for me and that fits their shenanigans

5. K25

Then there is also K25, I remember me and my friend didn't even know what remembrance means and think it just looked absolutely cute, ahh, good days

I wonder just how many people got baited by the cute cover and didn't expect the dark topic inside, like it is the first time you bought from the series and that is what you saw

In short, I very like the volumes where them being teenagers are highlighted, and I don't mean teenagers as like stupid, just still have not explored and experienced a variety in the world yet (tho undeniably they are rich and had gone vacation overseas).

If we could have another cultures diverse volume, I would to see Kaoru to indulge in Korean culture, in that way we could get Han Su Jung centric too and learnt about her backstory

Ok, continuing on;

Nobody asked this but to answer the question "Which character would you like to bring to real world with you?"

It depends on, does the character has to live with me for the rest of eternity because if so--- I don't want neither quite frankly they are all asshole (except Alexis but I still don't want)

But if it is only for half a day or two hours, I would like to meet Prince Albert and have him as a house guest!

He seemed to have a house manner (without Ciel around) and I would like to just watch him drinking tea and speak in polished heaviest stereotypical British accent. With my deafness and inability to speak a fluent English, I wanna confuse this man

And tea drinkers we both are, just I expect him to have a strong and bitter one while I have tehpeng (milk tea with ice which is sweet)

And if he didn't disappear after a few hours or days then I would just bait him to go to a bridge or a police station and skedaddle to my house; Yes, I am abandoning a fictional prince

He would probably die

If I miss him I would just turn on the news and see if he is there or not, if not, eh

Theorical question: When I think about K9, I just remember how Prince Ciel and Prince Albert are already so calm about a citizen wanting to attack Albert because they both knew as a prince, they already have their own bodyguards to protect them from danger (and I just remember Quentin is already in this volume). Does that make it possible for the princes to ever figure that they have a bodyguard disguising themselves as the school staff and members and also form a prince bodyguard organisation secretly? Especially Albert and Ciel themselves with how much contact they made with their bodyguards; I mean, Engel is a very suspicious man even before he becomes a school student and the encounter in the dorm bathroom with Ciel, that got to alert his mind one day. Then, there is Merlin with how much he just wanted to stick close and offered help to Albert; like he is keeping an eye and following him

Their identity being spilled meant that they can no longer work for the princes, but knowing how this series works, it won't stop the bodyguard from being loyal and caring, a sign of protests against the princes' parents like Iseya to Shintarou's dad

Imagine if one of the princes got into trouble and the bodyguard came there to protect them again as usual and the prince just went "[Name], are you..."

Then they would probably black out

Then the volume would reset

Then nobody mentioned about it anymore

Quentin would probably go "Be more careful next time they almost discovered our identity." But the princes actually forgot it all

But what if...

What if Shintarou had a somewhat idea that Iseya was his bodyguard and the main taboo about a bodyguard is that they cannot reveal their identity and would be fired instantly so he pretended to not remember Iseya after K42 because he didn't want to lose him again

Would he constantly be thinking that Iseya is watching him or is nearby as he walked to dorm and study

Would any of the princes be purposely alone to rattle out their bodyguards?

It would probably more sense with the direction of the series for Alex to discover Quentin's identity before the other princes with their own bodyguards. From Charles to Alex in order of the rest of the main group

Gion already had a heavy suspicion on Livio and his whereabout— luckily that man had cooled down and more neutral because if this was K7 Gion he would have used that for his own good

It is a really nice character development, even if it feels more a rewrite, that Gion went from making villain noise "bah!", "gah!"; bratty and quick to plot to a plan to just let thing happened now and only stepped up if he got involved. He used to be making scenes, now he is mostly quiet and had that cool aura.

In an alternate universe, where the princes are older or the same ages and they found little children of the bodyguards, and each started a bond with them highlighting why each bodyguard had fallen in love with the prince's kind and unique personality and made a vow to protect them forever in another world (canon story)

In an alternate universe where Gion met Anubis, Shintarou and Livio in a much free-trauma and peaceful ways

Has either Albert or Lilian realised that both of them eating together in cafeteria can be interpreted as dating by other students? Just one picture all it takes to be spread anddddd

Ciel will definitely comment on their posts and confirm their relationship 

"Yeah, it's real bud. Trust me, I am England prince's friend"

The repliers will probably be "Prince Ciel??" (shocked that a literal prince responded to them)

Quick question: Do you guys ever realise that Albert can have a mini "harem" with the irredeemable antagonists? I don't mean actually romance harem, but I like writing stories and making AUs of  what if' and I thought that Albert can pressure Shao Long to change with their connection to Charles. Albert actually made a solid plot device for the irredeemable antagonist (so far) to have an actual development arch and became neutral (fuck being good guys, neutral the way)

Shao Long and him have many similiarity and potential that I saw literally nobody talked about it. What a better way for Shao Long to get over his hatred for Charles other than to be meddled by Charles’ since childhood best friends? This is due to stereotype, which is tied to Prince Series a lot with the characterization, but both Chinese and England are talked with to tea, and I can see them both having a kettle somewhere in their dorm/house drinking tea. It started with me remembering about Alex's dream (or nightmare) in K8 where they were in their own countries cultural clothes having an afternoon tea party. I would like to see Shao Long in his own Chinese custom having a tea too. I think, unlike Ciel, Albert would have a thing or two with how far Charles went with his facade and mindset, I think he might feel betrayed or rejected, which could cause a rift between them both, and the worst or best person to increase the gap is Shao Long. Why would Shao Long ignore the chance to make the princes realise the true Charles? The Charles who got him expelled and bullied in his life instead of the self claimed peace lover? He won't.

And Albert frankly wouldn't believe Shao Long first, but he won't also defend Charles 100% too, he was loyal, but he had his own love language to do it (tsundere— or tbh, just blunt and bold)

Shao Long would be surprised, but hated how Charles got it all, from friends and loveable surrounding who defended him even when Charles had done something wrong

Maybe I am biased cuz I read that Midnight title smth fanfic with 22k words of all princes including Shao Long making cookies together and Albert was shown caring towards Shao Long but I think from all princes beside Felix, Albert was actually very forgiving

I think he would care, would get taken out by Shao Long's outburst and the way his goodie mask fell off so quickly

I think Shao Long would probably run away, but slowly their understanding of each other would bloom

Albert seemed like the kind of person who would tattletale child Charles’s bluff to make Shao Long came out of his shell, and even if he was judgemental, he would care

It wouldn't be far to assume Albert could teach Shao Long to 'forgive' but not necessarily forget and have to befriend

I don't expect them to be friends, but I expected him to fill the lasting grudge in Shao Long's heart and make him one day to be able to look at Charles without feeling any bitterment anymore

And considering this all happened because Albert found out Charles was hiding secrets from them, he wouldn't also tell Charles what he knew of Shao Long and this could be a secret between the United Kingdom prince and the successful family's Chinese son

Another dynamic between them is that, Albert had an obsession with manners and behaviours; and Shao Long always pretended and talked in high air, keeping his intention hiding although we all knew he meant bad. Albert’s moody face and Shao Long's fake smile would be a good match together.

And that makes me realise, Albert could do that with others too

For example, Hans

Hans' whole life had been about his parents being rich and luxurious but never provided him with love and attention until it got bad and could ruin their family reputation. The most he ever felt loved and taken care of was his moment with his private tutor, Godfreg 

Ever make the connection with another backstory?

In K37, Albert's life has also been familiar, mostly overshadowed by his older brother and not given attention by his parents. It had gotten so bad he cried at getting letter by his dad after making it out alive from a coma btw. It took his parents 16 years and for him to get hospitalised to show them gave a fuck

Hans' parents also only gave a fuck when his reputation was at line and proceeded to get bish slapped/scolded or both by Godfreg (get rid)

They both were born in luxurious and high reputation family

They both also had good memorable relationship with their tutors

In K34, Albert was very worried and even teared up when his piano tutor got hospitalised, with his memory and stuff and what we knew of hus parents and brother in K37, Albert probably felt most affection from his tutor too

Like how Leon and Shintarou traumabonding (or what the hell ever the healthy bond term is), Albert and Hans could also share a same connection

They both also got the high tension and rich vibes, and Hans like Shao Long kept a goodie two masks too

With Albert’s tendecy to be bold but also cared about manner, he would clash with them perfectly.

Then there is Anubis, damn, they actually had a volume together and shown hostility or smth

I always forgot because Albert got dismissed so easily when he tried to speak up about Anubis in K43 (he deserved better /hj /Imeantruebutitisfortheplot) and I don't see other people talking about it much too

But when people did, I saw someone in TikTok said Anubis was being a hypocrite in his cowardice speech to Albert, and is not that just a way a person cope or put their fault and weakness onto others? To run away from having to change?

And again, Albert despite being bold and hot-tempered let the case rest too peacefully when Anubis came back and in front of him without a problem, he also didn't bat an eye to Neelam dismissing Anubis as not a threat despite what he literally did to Lilian (erasing another prince's love interest's memory cuz because he got ghosted by his own crush, Anubis Instagram story would be wild)

His determination and loyalty could move the icy rock in Anubis' heart, no matter how impossible it sounded.

It might not be forgiveness, but Albert didn't hold much grudge and actually was very easy going and understanding 

If I forget any other antagonist (Dhaluu and Jamil don't count), you are wrong

And with that, I would to talk about another duo of Albert that had both contrast and charm

Charles and Albert

Charles is not an antagonist, he is legitimately the main character, but he and Albert played so much contrasting characteristic to point it out

The reason why I am obsessed in this duo is because they are both completing each other, with their behaviours, personal and motives

Charles's whole character by now is a self claimed peace lover who is calm and rational outside, forgiving, naive and dumb, but from inside, he is secretly observing everyone and plotting to send justice after people who had a thing against the princes and his friends

He pretended to be fine with everything and moving along with everyone’s ideas but he was the one mostly bothered and did his own thing behind the mask

Meanwhile Albert is the short-tempered guy who resorted to violence aka punching and wanting to beat up someone when things didn't go to his way and when someone teased and insulted him, either it is his own best friends or the rivals, he both could not keep his facade and became easily angry despite his manner obsession and reputation of being a polite polished guy of the main characters to other students.

But, behind that nature of him was undeniably someone who was very sensitive and had good intentions for everyone, even if he was angry, he would hold himself back immediately if he could sense the other member was in danger or bad mood. He was very bold in his words and confrontation, but that didn't make him an asshole, just someone who didn't have a limit to his opinion 

I think they both contrast each other like that:

1. Outside, Charles is the naive peacemaker while Albert is the aggressive responder
2. Inside, Charles actually observed, plot and holds on to things while Albert was forgiving and understanding and that let his anger be subsided
3. Charles did not let his true feelings came out, making him bottle up emotions which led to outburst later on while Albert barely kept quiet (unless if situations needed him to) and let out his feelings so it didn't get bottled up and carry on later

And that's why, I truly think they are a complementing duo and deserved each other.

So when K44 came, I was truly expecting and was disappointed when Kaoru did not use the chance to move Charles' character development and let it be another volume where another one of his friend's figured out his true identity. If Albert knew by then, then we could finally have a continuation from K16, K17 and K18 where Alex and Gion found out about Charles, seeing other character (Albert)'s reaction to his friend's true facade, and we could move the plots.

Albert knowing about Charles' two faces personality meant two things:

1. Charles will finally have an actual character development. Maybe we could get an hindsight of his past, what led and pursued him to be this way, like in K25 where Gion and Livio told us the reader Livio's life. It meant the story and future volumes would stop being repetitive and Charles could be another thing than just the solution.
2. It meant that the power and active characters in the main group to change, and overall, the lead of the story. Unlike Ciel, Albert definitely won't let it go and constantly mention it, forcing Charles to do something about it instead of keeping quiet. The direction of the new volumes would be very different. It won’t be Charles vs Anubis anymore, because Albert would make sure the idiot won't do it alone. And maybe Kaoru doesn't like that idea, and that's why despite everything, Albert was not the first person to figure it out. It would change too much things

I don't just like the ship, I was their bromance and dynamic fan before. Even since I reread the early volumes and continued, I realised they had many potential together and looking up more to them, when the canon no longer provided I went to AO3 (the place everyone goes when unsatisfied with the canon lol) and was doomscrolling having a breakdown trying to find a single centric fics of them. The first fic I found was a ship fanfic 'Just a bit curious' or 'Prince Charming, Prince Charmed' series and started shipping due to that.

Now I am bloodthirsty of them (don't help)

With all that being said, unconfirmed or dismissed theories that will never come that true just means another fanfic and AUs idea for me, and I don't realise till now just how much I like the ideas of "what if...?" AUs

What if... one day I will edit the summary or the author note of the fanfic to say "It is canon now! This was made before K?? but still, enjoy!"

One could dream.

Anyways, I wanna make a volume guideline for this series; if you only buy a certain volume centric around this character or a ship/dynamic only then that could be helpful. Idk when that is but soon but I am also busy too 

Again, I am not proofreading this again too lazy

This is made before author reads K49 and K50, my local bookstore still have not sold it

(It is crazy to think one day you would look at this and remember K50 used to the most recent volume, and not whatever it is now)
