LeTS GoOOO

1. Ever since his twin brother disappeared (which is quite recently, might I add) Ciel has been under constant stress, but tries not to show it and goes out of his way to meet new people to give him something to think about other than 'omg my bro might be dead i hope not i gon cry now'. One of his methods of coping are to place those who vaguely remind him of or have traits belonging to his brother way up there on a pedestal, and tries to hang out with them as much as possible. Little does he know, this is actually making him miss his brother more. What a sad shortie.

2. Also because of his brother, Ciel has a hard time trusting pegasi. It doesn't mean he doesn't like them, which he does, but he can't find their words to be honest unless he knows them well or it's a compliment. Anything to feed his ego, I guess. Anyway, he thinks that any pegasus in question may be manipulating him or will betray him one day, since he saw how sad his brother was when his winged girlfriend cheated on him with the sky. He had to even give his brother the whole 'there are plenty of fish in the ocean' speech, after which he'd hoped his brother didn't think he was saying 'go get yourself a piece of hippocampus rump'. Pegasi that remind him of his bro, though, are a whole different story, because he trusts them blindly without ever knowing he is.

3. Also on the subject of racism, there is one breed of Hireath that Ciel has a really misguided opinion on. And those are zebras. Because he hasn't seen one before, he doesn't think they exist. Even if he does see one, he thinks those with stripes are just born with a weird gene that stripes the coat or something like that. The reason why he doesn't like the 'non-existent' zebras is because of all the hassle he's gotten from his friends when they're talking about their zebra friend, and he buts in and says that zebras aren't real. His friends were in so much pain trying to prove their existence, so they even scheduled a trip to Aodh with him where they know there's zebras. But, being Ciel, he thought it was a prank and retaliated by snorting and going home to eat something.

4. Ciel, with his father being half War-Forged and half Breiman, has quite a few family members in Onea (despite claiming with his air-tight logic that he's a pure Breiman). Whenever he's like 'oh this tunnel stinks i wanna go visit mah half-cuzzies' he packs up, asks a friend to look after his surgery to make sure no hermit takes it over, and just leaves. Of course he takes a few meat shields well-built friends with him, because he can't fight. He can try to kick, but it will most definitely be wonky and be a miracle if it hits the intended target. Anyhoo, one such cousin is Hershey, who he visits about every second year or so, depending on how much he made that year and if the cost of travelling supplies has dropped or risen, as well as the price of rent-a-bodyguard. Because of a few trips to the farmlands sightseeing with his family when he was young, he had also made a lot of childhood friends there, his closest being Tem- and not just because of his height.

5. Though Ciel will eat almost anything (wasting precious nutrients is always out of the question for him), his favourite food flavour is 'salty'. It could just be because horses have a natural craving for salt, but he thinks he's 'addicted' to the stuff. He loves its flavour, texture, and he often smells it, which more often than not leads to the little grains being inhaled and him bending over the sink trying to snort it out. He often puts it on foods to enhance their taste- his favourite quality- and if no food is available, he'll just eat it on its own. He hates how expensive the stuff is, too, especially considering he needs it for medical uses.

6. Ciel's attitude towards the smooth criminal Jamais Vu is actually a lot more complicated than just 'hate'. It's like they were predestined to butt heads; With Ciel's goal to mend the herd just like a true doctor would, and Vu's to break the herd apart, it's only natural it'd get slightly violent, considering they clash quite a lot. You see, here's the real juicy part. Ciel actually gets so angry with Vu's behaviour and ideals that it translates into frustration. Sexual frustration. Yes, that's right, folks, but don't get too excited. His body may want in on that goldilocks but his heart and mind have more control. Well, some of the time. He thinks that if he sleeps with this maniac, the tall guy's gonna kill him while he sleeps, as he's just one of the things getting in the silver dapple's way.

7. Ciel actually got his accent from his father, as when his father was young, he wasn't taught how to speak very well and often missed out the Ts and Gs and it eventually evolved into his unique way of speaking. So when he grew up and had foals of his own, he actually did try to speak normally, but often his voice would slip back into its natural state and the foals would just drink up the lovely accent juice. The accent was so contagious, that even their step mother had a very slight one from just spending years with the three of them. Deep down, Ciel's actually quite embarrassed of his accent. At first he thought it was cool that he had a different sounding voice from the rest of the foals, but now he gets bullied for it and it doesn't sound formal at all. He does have his proud moments, though, so don't you worry.

8. To wrap up our little invasion of Ciel's privacy, here's one last fact. One of the only reasons Ciel keeps his tail long is because of one of his constant patients, Cecilia. She was born blind, and Ciel was assigned to help find a cure for her blindness. It seems like an impossible feat, but with Ciel's doctoral skills, combined with the skills of some scientists he teamed up with, he believed he could do it. And who knows? No dream is too big for this little shetland. Back on topic, he keeps it long to guide around the little royal when she stays with him, allowing her to not bump into his desk or trip over the bandages on the floor. He has actually made most of the corners on the furniture slightly rounded to combat most injuries if she decides to walk blind around the surgery without his help, which is actually quite often. The story of how a foal actually became his patient is quite weird. But when the two royals first turned up with a little filly, he was quick to deny helping the filly, who seemed physically fine. But the two kept pushing him, and seeing a saddening resemblance to his niece, he reluctantly accepted the task. Ironically, the resemblance to his niece is why he denied them in the first place. Anyway, he doesn't regret a thing. Not yet, at least. He keeps his findings on the topic in his little book. 

I hope you enjoyed knowing a little more about Ciel without feeling like a stalker ;u;
