[foolsocracy]

thinking about pete's exact age again and whats implied by these panels

Frankenstein was released November 21, 1931. The first noir volume takes place January 1933. It's been a generous 14 months since he's seen this movie but with how its written here it sounds like he's talking about an instance when he was a kid. or at least... younger than however old he was just over a year ago.

Either Pete is on the younger side of his teenage years or he's very sensitive to 'horror'/disturbing scenes, or both. I'd get it if he's sensitive to that stuff cause who knows what heinous shit he's seen but damn does that make me feel really awful for him. Peter The Horrors Parker, known for being subjected to The Horrors,.. it just makes me sad

#the urge to accept all the implications that hes LITTLE little vs ..... ewoaf sex scene #pete: well its 1933 and i saw that in 1931... yeah i was such a scaredy-cat a couple years back. im better now tho #(1 year ago) #tbh there are some disturbing scenes in that movie i get him #its on vimeo lol i did a scrub through #collapses to my knees ooohhh hes trying to be so brave #peter benjamin parker #spider noir #spiderman noir #comic writers probably; oblivious: google show me a movie written in the 1930s. haha yes. click. frankenstein canon #me 17 years later: damn that shit just came out in noirs time thats crazy fr. wait . what did u mean by that

i scribbled this out after watching Frankenstein (1931), i thought it would be interesting if the creature('s brain) had a sense that he was alive before...

#frankenstein #frankenstein 1931 #fortis arbor's art #traditional #comic #fanart #image described #second part kept coming out blurry no matter how many photographs i took -__- oh well. #they spend so much time in this movie talking about the origins of the creatures brain and then its like... okay did that even matter? #i have no idea. #but you know what? movies dont have to be good. this comic doesnt have to be good. i can draw anything and so can you. ::-] #and yeah his name is henry in this movie.

1931 Vampire AU!

For those unaware, I wrote a bit of a neat Linked Universe setting AU last year that I haven't done much with, but I really like it and want to share a bit more about it! Links to the existing fics where relevant.

The series on AO3 is here!

(It would also be fun to develop this AU a little more, and I'd like to draw some stuff for it, so if you send in an ask about it, I might answer with a doodle. ;) )

AU basics: a hidden magic world in America, the year 1931 after WWI. None of the boys are human (except Twilight, at least at first), but they all think they're hiding magic from everyone else, at least for a time. :) There are a lot of magical peoples in this world, organized in their own ways, e.g. merfolk kingdoms, fae courts, the vampire councils, entire hidden cults, and hunter organizations. Ganon exists, but he's a hidden threat that they've all faced in one way or another.

Character summaries!

Wind: the focus of this AU. (The original fic was an excuse to make him very cool.) He was born 1696 in Florida ish, at the height of the golden age of piracy. He was turned into a vampire by Tetra in about 1710 and is eternally physically 14. He sailed with her crew (all pirates) for a few decades. She was invited to the western vampire council in Spain in 1750 as the vampire pirate queen, but... stuff went down. (fic: Body and Soul Marooned) She and her whole crew died, along with a lot of vampires. Wind survived, getting a nice angsty scene in there where they said wedding vows as she died, and went on to try and warn other councils about the upcoming massacres. Because most vampires died during that time, Wind is one of the oldest vampires still alive, and most who survived that time owe their lives to him.

Warriors: the secondary focus of this AU. He was a legitimate soldier during WWI, proper age and everything. When Wind enlisted, Wars took it upon himself to guide this seemingly young kid, and got killed doing so. Wind turned him into a vampire, not wanting him to die. (fic: In the Chill of Battle) He has a fun relationship with Wind, both of them taking the big-brother role in turns. Wars is a younger vampire, but his brain and body was able to mature more, so. Before Wars knew Wind, he was also captain of a division with Time, not that Time remembers that right off. Wars acts the responsible adult, so he gets them both hired as part of Time's team.

Time: he's Twilight and Wild's uncle. When he was a kid, he was whisked away to Faerie and replaced by a changeling for a few years. He fought his way back to find that time had passed differently for him, so he's mentally older than he appears. He didn't get out without being touched by the fae, and is beholden to some of their rules. He's the only one old enough to have enlisted in the military at a legal age, and used his status as a veteran to get a job at a local police station as a sort of detective. That's how he collects all the boys. :)

Wild: half-vampire. He's aging slowly, but still aging. He's close to Twilight, but always felt like he didn't exactly belong. Vampires as an organization don't believe there are many dhampirs out there, and don't like them, but a few underground cells have been organizing. Wild had a few run-ins with them. He's aware of a lot more magic than people think he is, having networked out to several kinds of magical peoples. The Yiga are a cult of shapeshifters that are out for his blood. (fic: Caged) He joined the team when the existing members came to save him and Twilight from them, later in the "story." Wild is one of those in the group willing to do Mad Science. :)

Twilight: is human. He dealt with Wild his whole life, so he's aware of vampires, but not much else. Over the course of the "story," he gets turned into a werewolf, so all of the boys get to deal with that.

Sky: he's a lynchpin of the team! Without Sky, not everyone would be there. He's an air elemental by birth, fairly important in those familial circles but mostly separated from them these days. His natural form is not exactly... physical. He knows Time from the war (he enlisted at too young an age near the end, and didn't see much combat, but made connections), Legend from some of what Legend did (aka everything, but specifically some merchant connections in this case), and found Four on his own. Sky doesn't count as fae at all, but he's in-tune with the environment and flow of magic around him. (He's not happy about the dust bowl.) He is pretty oblivious to the others being magical, though.

Four: he's rather disconnected from the others, in terms of backstory. To understand him, you have to know that there are six courts of the fae: one for each season in the wheel, with a light and a dark in the center and outside. Four grew up in the Light Court, full fae. One of the princess's Minish advisors betrayed the Light Court and gave power to the Dark (hi Vaati), and Four helped to restore balance. In the process, he had to change. The courts didnt generally trust each other, so Four split into four fae with the help of magic, one for each seasonal court. More magic and betrayal happened, and Four is semi-stuck as a Dark fae now. He can become a shadow and hide in other shadows, but he's vulnerable to light in general. When he left Faerie for the mortal world, he found Sky, who pretty much adopted him as a little brother. He's very protective of Sky.

Legend: is a prince of one of the merfolk kingdoms. He saved each of the underwater kingdoms at least once, then ventured to the surface to find more wrongs that needed righting. He isn't obvious about it, but he has a good heart. He's kind of sort of employed as a spy and informant, but he focuses on supernatural issues. He's more of a special ops agent than anything, though he does like to find people who'll pay him for doing what he wants to do anyway. He's been practically everywhere and done practically everything. He definitely heard of Wind, but didn't connect the dots right off. Merfolk aren't considered fae, but his particular family line made contracts with fae long ago, and he has some of their geases in a lightened form. He figured out pretty quickly that everyone was magic and trying to hide it.

Hyrule: is full fae, like Four, but of the Spring Court. He lived in the human world his whole life, a street kid who had to keep his fae nature tightly under wraps, which could get difficult around the promises and names and iron of daily life. He moved around a lot. He was captured for a year or two by unscrupulous scientists and rescued by Legend, who took him to Sky and Time. (fic: EPISODE SEVEN: Lost and Found) He's the resident healer and mad scientist.

Other Fics

More Than You Can Chew: the beginning of the "story." Starts with Wars confessing he's a vampire, and then they go rescue Wind, who's been captured by wannabe hunters.

Council: sort-of ongoing fic about Wind taking the rest of the Chain to the latest vampire council meeting. >:)

At the beginning of the 1931 Dracula the Hungarian spoken is authentic and is one of my favourite parts of it. I don’t know if it was ever translated, because every time I had subtitles on it usually just said something along the lines as “speaking Hungarian”. Decided to try my best at translating it, even though I feel like anyone could guess what they are saying, but it did catch me off guard when I first watched the movie and heard the language of my home country... it did feel nice though.

Itt a Földön is, mindennapi kenyerünket add mi nékünk ma… / Here on Earth, give us our everyday bread… (As I’m not Christian I just mirror translated it as best as I could. The rest of the prayer is obscured by the other conversation.)

Édesapám! Jön a postakocsi és a nap is lemenőben! / Father! The postal car is coming and the sun is setting as well!

A gyerekre vigyázz édesem. / Watch the child my dear.

Gyün már a postakocsi! / The postal car is comin’! (In the Hungarian I wrote it with the accent as it is said.)

Ó, megjöttek öregem, megjöttek! Hála az Istennek hát megjöttek, öregem! Itt jönnek már! / Oh, they have arrived my old pal, they have arrived! Thank God they have arrived, my old friend! Here they come! (A lot of it is obscured as everyone is talking and cheering at the same time that the postal car has arrived safely.)

After Renfield says that he wants to go to Borgo Pass.

Borgó szorosba? Ma este? A Borgó szorosba ma este? / To Borgo Pass? Tonight? To Borgo Pass tonight?

Te, még ma a Borgó-i szorosokba akar menni… és én félek. / You, he wants to go to the Borgo Passes tonight… and I’m afraid. (I love that the driver stutters as he says he lines.)

After the innkeeper tries to warn Renfield.

Esteledik! Nyugszik le a nap! / Night is coming! The sun’s setting!

After Renfield leaves.

Ó, Istenem segíts! Segíts! Istenem az égben a mindenható… / Oh, God help! Help! God in Heaven, almighty… (Again a lot of it is obscured, but the townsfolk are praying for the safety of the driver and Renfield.)
