Who took the candy?
The preparations are swiftly done in no time, not a single mistake when both of Ciel's most skilled and competent servants work together. He comes down the stairs towards Lady Elizabeth. His clothing was the one she had gotten for him for the occasion, everything that is aside from his ring. Elizabeth coos and gushes about how adorable he looks, but comes to notice that he isn't wearing the ring she prepared for him. As he opted to continue wearing the ring he always wears
"Oh- Why aren't you wearing the ring I got you? It's so much cuter than that old thing!"
The girl complains, crying about how he doesn't appreciate her. The crocodile tears were all too obvious, but annoying enough for Ciel to try and reach out to calm her down somehow. Only for Lady Elizabeth to snatch his ring off, and calling it "un-cute" and not as nice as the one she got him
This angers Ciel greatly, however, as that particular ring she took from him is a family heirloom. Something of extremely significant value to him, as the now sole surviving member of the Phantomhive bloodline. A ring he holds dearly, as it was his late father's
"That just won't do, no no no!"
Ciel's eyes narrow as his patience begins to wane, his normally composed demeanor faltering in the face of Elizabeth's tantrum. The significance of the ring that she so carelessly dismissed cuts deep, a stark reminder of his family history and the weight he carries as the head of the Phantomhive family.
"Lady Elizabeth, I understand that you have your own preferences, but that ring you took holds great sentimental value to me," he states firmly, his voice tinged with an undercurrent of frustration. "That ring you just took from me, that holds immense value for me. I will not tolerate you disrespecting it in such a manner."
He takes a step closer to her, his gaze now firm and unwavering. "Return my ring immediately, and don't you dare touch it again. Give it back to me Elizabeth. Now."
For a brief moment, Ciel's expression softens, his eyes filled with a mixture of sadness and frustration. "I appreciate the thought and effort you put into the ring you gave me, but please understand that some things hold greater importance than aesthetics. I cannot simply abandon the memories associated with that ring."
Elizabeth's tears continue to flow, her face a mixture of hurt and frustration, though Ciel's words seem to strike a chord within her. His tone is still angered and unmistakably assertive, determined to assert his claim to what is rightfully his. The weight of the Phantomhive name and his responsibilities as the last surviving member of the family spur him on, demanding that he defend the precious heirlooms that hold the legacy of his bloodline.
"Why are you so angry at me...?"
"Why Ciel? Why?? I just want things to be cute, is that bad? How could you look at me so cruelly Ciel??"
Ciel's gaze remains fixed on Elizabeth, his eyes searching for any sign of understanding. "I understand your desire to see me wear the ring you chose for me. And while I appreciate your sentiment, I cannot simply discard the history and memories that are tied to my own ring."
"That makes no sense! How could this one be more important than something given to you by your FIANCE??"
Lady Elizabeth is not acting anymore, she is visibly upset at her fiancé's anger towards her. All for such a silly thing such as a ring that's not even his size. Thinking her fiancé doesn't love her more than a piece of jewelry. Her face turns from sadness to disgust, as she yells at him for being angry at her for no reason. Not knowing the value of the ring..
"This stupid thing, I hate it! Take it if you want it so much!!!"
The blonde lady throws the ring to the floor, the blue jewel upon it cracking and breaking off on impact. Shocking everyone, and angering Ciel even further. To the point that he flares up, and marches over to his fiancé ready to strike her with an open hand. Kept at bay by ______ as they get between him and Lady Elizabeth, Sebastian also coming in and taking him by the hand he was about to use to harm his fiancé with. _______ softly asking him to regain his calm, whispering in the same calming tone they spoke to him with earlier
