Description "No life that breathes with human breath
Has ever truly longed for death."

- Alfred, Lord Tennyson, 'The Two Voices'

Manga is by Yana Toboso. I cleaned the lines - including reconstructing his shirt that was lost from the chapter text - and then just colored and played with it.

This image turned very thought provoking after I added the quote. Suddenly, I had to wonder: since Sebastian is not human, would he eventually long for death, a finish to 'living', if that is what you can call it for a demon?

oh...Deep. I think the "living" and "death" for demons is different then for a human. Mainly because they're completely different beings. But it would also depend on the views of the afterlife of the human. But in my opinion, i think demons always wish to die.
