Notes: I haven’t read Black Butler since 2012, and I haven’t watched the anime, period. However, because I have a friend that keeps up with the series from time to time, I am aware of some plot insanity that makes this scenario completely impossible. C’est la vie.

College

A hollow sort of hush lay over the enormous house and all its grounds that hot August afternoon. The sun beat down on vacant flowerbeds and through the window panes into empty rooms. If any of the home’s usually raucous staff was there to see, none of them moved, none of them spoke. Their tasks were done, and what else was left but to wait for the inevitable? Wait they must. Being shouted at over their apathy was not much different than being shouted at for their enthusiasm.

Queen Aurora The Gentle, Aubepointe 1492

Aubepointine fashion in the late 15th century saw the rise in the use of ornamental metalworks juxtaposed with the increasing popularity of woolen-silk, a highly sought-after material developed by the Silk Empire two centuries prior, for use in court fashion.

The period of decadence that closely preceded her rise to power was known for elaborate metallic contraptions that served little actual purpose and excessive spending of metals that were not renewed and recycled had almost caused both an ecologic and an economic collapse of the great kingdom that so heavily relied on treaties with the Faefolk of Duboishire.

Although the Found Queen was known to wear simple silhouettes with delicate floral embroidery throughout her reign, her most famous gown was the Somber Briar Dress of 1492, an example of the fashions popularized during her father’s, Prince Erwin III, reign.

She wore said gown just moments before the enactment of Maleficent’s curse of La Sommeil D’mort. It was described to be made from custom double-lined woolen-silk that was dyed with winter roses and everblues and treated with ground titter stones that gave the dress a pinkish sheen in certain angles of light. It was then trimmed with wool that had undergone a special treatment known of the Westernlands, making it look like fur. The copper-gold over-stays and matching choker necklace and bracelets were noted to be crafted in the form of the writhing noctus briars held as a symbol of the House of Canthus and, in retrospect, the choking feeling of sobering captivity Queen Aurora had largely disambiguated in her memoirs at the time.

To this day, replicas and homages to the dress is common place in the Day of the Great Awakening, held every year in Aubepointe since 1493. It is a highly controversial dress with many citing how such statement of fashion should not be at the expense of the Great Queen’s horrid early memories of court. Moreover, such era of fashion excess had caused the greatest tension between the citizens of Aubepointe and the Faefolk of Duboishire. Many argue that her later regalia of looser gowns in vibrant greens and pastel rose, after her Restoration of the Duboishire Lands and Settlement with the Faefolk, should be what must represent the commemoration in light of Queen Aurora’s impact to the long-lasting peace between Fae and Man to this day.

What We’ve Learned About Succubi/Incubi

The first thing is that Succubi and Incubi (or at least the denizens of the Lust Ring) all seem to have X-shaped nipples, though because Kiki’s are heart-shaped and both Kiki and Verosika are wearing shirts, it is possible that for both of them, the chest markings are part of the shirt, and not what their nipples look like. So all we can really say with 100% certainty is that Incubi and male lust imps have X-shaped nipples.

There’s also clearly no set standard for horns among the Lust Ring denizens. Josh has the same horn types as Kiki and Apple, but then Ace’s horns are the same as Milky’s and Kat’s, and Coco’s horns are red at the tips unlike every other horns. But unless the crew comes forward to say that Milky and Josh are trans, the horns don’t seem to follow a gender binary like the imp horns do. Perhaps they indicate sexual preferences? Red with black tips for bi/pan, full black for likes boys, and full red for likes girls? Meanwhile, the bouncer has the white hair and horns like an imp, but he’s much taller than the imps inside. Up until now, Striker was the tallest imp we’d ever seen, but this one seems to be as tall as Striker. What’s more odd is that this imp has wings, but while all of Verosika’s crew have wings, their wings are all black. Only Verosika herself has wings like the bouncer, with wings that mostly match her skin tone. He also has the authority to choose who gets into a Prince’s private club/restaurant whatever. So, while he looks like an imp, it’s hard to say for certain if the bouncer is a standard imp, an incubus, or something else we haven’t been introduced to yet. But it seems like every demon from the lust ring might have wings? So, the shorter imps that serve tables inside may simply be immigrants from other rings. But if Lust Ring imps have wings, that sadly sort of shoots the Blitzo is a Lust Imp theory in the foot.

Horn and tail colors don’t seem to have any correlation. Ace, Milky, and Kat all have pure black horns, but Kat’s tail is pure black, Milky’s is pure red, and Ace’s is a gradient from red to black. It also doesn’t seem to be connected to gender, Coco, Apple, and Milky all have pure red tails, but Kiki’s tail is partially black. Now, again, it is possible that Kiki is trans, and only incubi have black on their tails, but again, this is not an established rule, and Verosika also has black at the tip of her tail. Now, Kiki and Verosika could both be trans, but we don’t currently have evidence of this.

The Bouncer again confuses matters, as his tail has a white tip, completely failing to follow the trend of other Lust Ring locals, though if he is an imp, then they could be wounds. But these are clearly more cream-colored compared to Blitzo’s stark white scar tissue. One thing I did notice however is that both the bouncer and Verosika are very similar in design. White hair, markings on the tips of their wings and tails that are the same color, and being of similar heights. So if the bouncer is not an imp, he may simply be the same type of incubus as Verosika is a sucubbus, such as if there’s different types or levels. However, Verosika does not have markings on her shoulders the same way the bouncer does, and she doesn’t have imp-like horns like he does either.
