I have chosen to write about my wolves,
Sebastian and
Ciel, and Undead Renegade's wolf,
Grell. (Black Butler beach scene, anyone?
)
As per UndeadRenegade; Grell is definitely OOC in this story.Week 1 - Summer Prompt - List of Words Used: 8/8

1,102Tokens: ??? (Over 85, probably closer to 298 (149 doubled for writing about someone else's wolf, I think?) if I've done my calculations correctly - but I'm not 100% certain that this is correct.)
Ciel sighed, feeling exasperated. His paws were burning on the
sand. "Sebastian, why are we stuck on this hot beach? I thought we were supposed to be celebrating Winter!"
"My Young Master," Sebastian said quietly, a smirk on his face as he laid out a towel, "We ARE celebrating Winter. As you'll recall, we're here on a business trip, no longer are we confined to the cold winters of London."
"I thought it was cold everywhere," he grumbled. "Why can't it be cold?"
Sebastian smiled, handing the smaller wolf
a parasol. "You can use this for shade."
"An umbrella? For shade? Goodness, you're a moron."
Sebastian ignored his master's jab and set it up, propping it upright using a pile of
sand. "Master, why is it that the other servants did not come with us for this trip?"
"You darn well know, jerk. Must I spell everything out for you?"
"I was merely asking an inquiry, My Lord."
He rolled his eyes and fanned his face with a paw. "Fine then, I'll tell you what you already know, I suppose. Mey-Rin is a klutz, Finny is an idiot, and Bard burns everything his paws touch. Tanaka just drinks tea all day long. You're really the only servant worth having around here, Sebastian."
"I am flattered, Young Master."
"Don't be. You're here on business, not to have fun."
Silence stretched on, the only sounds reaching the two wolves' ears being the roar of
the ocean and the cries of
sea gulls.
Suddenly, a red blob appeared on the horizon on the farthest end of the beach. Ciel frowned. "Sebastian? What is that?"
Sebastian glanced over, and with an alarmed expression on his face, stood from his seated position. "Excuse me, My Lord. I have a pest to rid myself of."
Ciel rolled his eyes. "Not Grell again," he muttered sourly. "While you're up, get me an
ice cream, would you? I'm parched."
With a slight bow, Sebastian nodded. "Of course, My Lord."
Ciel slipped on his
sunglasses. With a dismissive wave of his paw, he shooed the demon off.
Sebastian raced forward, tucking his pocket-watch into his pocket. He stopped when he came less than a foot from the other demon. "Grell Sutcliff," he said quietly.
The other wolf started. "Goodness, Sebby! You startled me - not that I'm complaining." He batted his long eyelashes at the other wolf, nearly equal in height with him.
Sebastian sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose. "What are you doing here, Grell?"
"Why, Bassy, you little devil! Don't you know why I've followed you and your bratty little master here?"
Sebastian's eyes glowed magenta. "Speak ill of me if you wish, but leave the Young Lord out of our spat."
"Ooooh, have I irked you, Sebby?"
"And please, stop calling me that."
"Aw, and I was just starting to have some fun, too. Well, Sebby, if you really must know - I followed you here because of the lovely time of year! Winter, the time when lover's hearts are opened wide to the possibility of finding the right one for each other. Perhaps your heart is open to me now, Sebby?"
Sebastian shoved Grell over, burying his muzzle into the
sand. "If you try anything as utterly ridiculous as the stunt you've become so obsessed with performing, you will have dire consequences for your actions. Do you understand me?"
Grell nodded, mumbling something Sebastian couldn't catch.
He released the other wolf's skull.
He popped up, spat out
sand, and glanced up at Sebastian. "Goodness, you're so strong, Sebby! Do that again."
Sebastian groaned. "Please, don't speak like that," he muttered, turning tail on the other demon.
"Ooooh, have you decided to punish me, Sebby? I'd gladly take any pain you'd inflict, darling!"
Sebastian sighed. "Unless you truly irk me, no, I won't be laying a claw on you - particularly in the way you're so fond of thinking of."
"Come now - you know how I feel about you! Is there ever any hope for us?"
"Perhaps," Sebastian said sarcastically.
Grell swooned. "Oh, Sebby! Please, say that again!"
With a roll of his eyes, Sebastian quickened his pace. "I am here on a business trip, Grell. If you truly wish to be near me, you'll have to keep that mouth of yours shut."
"Of course, Sebby!" he said, not missing a beat as he kept pace with the other demon.
They reached Ciel once again. "This was the red dot we saw off in the distance. Unfortunately, I was unable to lose him."
"Lose me, Sebby?! You'd never lose me, darling!"
Sebastian pursed his lips, but said nothing. "Young Master, I neglected to give you a
sunhat. Allow me to tie one 'round your neck?"
"Certainly," Ciel said with a nod of his head.
Sebastian got to work putting on both
sunhats - one for himself and one for Ciel.
"Oh, I'd just hate to get sunburned, no matter how beautiful a shade of red it would be," Grell murmured. "Do you have a
sunhat for me as well, Sebby?"
"I merely packed enough for the Young Lord and myself."
Grell pouted. "Well, that's not very nice." Suddenly, something caught his attention and he darted off. "I'll be right back, Sebas-chan!"
Sebastian did his best to keep his fangs in his mouth.
Ciel noticed his discomfort. With a boyish smirk, he asked, "Something on your mind, Sebastian?"
"That absurd wolf will not leave me be. He knows full well I could grind him into
sand in a mere moment's notice...why, you remember the first time we fought - I nearly beat him, and would have, if it had not been for your Aunt interfering, My Young Lord."
Ciel nodded. "I remember it well. At least my Aunt is gone, now. She won't be bothering us for-"
Grell raced back, and threw a
beach ball in Ciel's direction.
Sebastian acted before the orb would strike his master. He hit it back at Grell so hard it toppled over the red and grey wolf. He spun head over paws as he tumbled through the air, landing with his paws sticking up out of the ground. Sebastian could just hear him say, "I could just eat you up, darling!"
With another sigh and a shake of his head, Sebastian turned back to Ciel. "My apologies, Young Master. I will fetch you some
ice cream now, if that would please you."
"Yes it would, Sebastian. Thank you. And...get something to put that idiot to sleep, would you?"
With a smirk of his lips and a flash of magenta in his eyes, Sebastian bowed. "Yes, My Lord."
