Winter Pleasures - Contest Entry

If It Makes You Happy (Kuroshitsuji)Lizzie pulled harder at Ciel's arm, nearly cutting off the circulation. "Cielllll," she protested, in that whine that made his teeth hurt. "He must be freezing up there without a blanket! Why didn't you give him one?"
Ciel sighed. "Sebastian's fine, he doesn't need one."
Her expression went from pleading to shock to reproval in 0.25 seconds flat. "Of course he needs one! It's so cold out here, and he's a person, too! Why would you say such a horrible thing??"
Ciel cringed at her tone; it was going to be a huge hassle to calm her down if she really got going. "Don't worry about it, Lizzie, the cold doesn't bother him, I promise!"
"Ci-elllll! Just because he's a servant doesn't mean you can just leave him be in freezing weather! What if he gets ill?" She squeezed his bicep so hard he thought she might actually amputate the limb then and there. "Sebastian is so nice, and you're being so meeeeeeaaaann!"

Well yes, a winter scene. I just love those, and it´s actually the very first time I drew Lizzie!

The sleigh was a bit hard to draw, but I had a neat reference, so that was okay.

It was more difficult to draw the horse; I have never drawn a sleigh harness before.

And I reused a reference that I had already used before (therefor no Kaaring points for Summer Wine because I already used it for a Cavitto). Had to redraw the pose from scraps to fit the harness – good practice for me!

So Ciel and Lizzie enjoying a sleigh ride. Although I think that Lizzie is enjoying this far more than Ciel…
