Listen. I lost my shit when i saw Rdj saying those lines.Don't make it harder on me dude 😂.

AAAAAH!!! imagine Rdj as Iron Man, trying to do the snap and Claes as Drac steps in, steals the glove and does the snap (SPOILER AHEAD IF SOMEONE HASN'T SEEN IT) so Iron Man wont die. "Do you think after all this time I'd let it hurt"

So, had a Claes dream last night.

I was watching Endgame and guess who was Iron Man. I'll give you a hint: NOT RDJ. Here's another hint (see picture below second paragraph).

So, if "I am Iron Man *snap*", the death that followed, and "love you 3000" made you tear up, imagine what itll do to you hearing CLAES FUCKING BANG says it!!! I mean, I'm about to cry just WRITING about it and IT WAS A FUCKING DREAM.

I love every single bit of this. I love how much they worked to get the story right (as a story, their script had some faults,but it's ok really). I love the fact that they put so many details to the story, to the little one- liners that at a first glimpse seem insignificant -to the clothes even. And i love that no matter how many times i watch it, i still figure new staff out. I'd love to see a bit of the warlord backstory in s2.

"..at least i don't like that person suffering" ughhh my heart but also YA THINK??

“I want something to eat, a bit of company. || I do sometimes wonder what it is that you actually want.”

The way Claes plays Dracula throughout – including as an old man – is that immense power is done as presumption. And the presumption come across as, “I don’t have to take you seriously. I can swat you like a fly anytime I like but for now, you‘re amusing me so let’s just carry on chatting.” And then at a certain point he doesn’t care anymore and just goes, “F**k it.” He’s just not bothering [with pretenses] anymore. That flippancy becomes menacing and sadistic. It’s a demonstration that he really doesn’t regard anybody as a threat. That’s quite difficult to deal with. And if he’s gonna kill you, he’d quite like to have a nice chat with you first. And when that’s done, he’ll snap your neck.

Dracula likes the Duchess. We had to cut it for time but there was a lovely bit where he says he couldn’t bear the idea of her going to England and living on benefits or some such. He didn’t like that idea, he was offended by it. It is sort of sentimental but it doesn’t mean he is kind. He is sentimental in the sense that, as we find out, he has met her before when she was 18 and he killed her mother. And then he finds her again and gives her a good death – he joins those two things up. To him, in a way, it’s like “Oh, I remember that, it was last week.” but in the intervening time she’s aged 70 years. But he takes her for one last dance. She wouldn’t necessarily agree that’s a good death but in his point of view, there are all these little mayflies around him clinging to their pointless lives far past their value: “What difference does it make if I kill you today or tomorrow. You die anyway.” He has genuine affection and appreciation for all her memories and the life she’s led. So he enjoys her company and then drinks her blood.

At some level, he feels condemned to life but he does attempt to entertain himself all the time and he’s capable of valuing entertainment. For instance, he never just jumps Agatha. At any point. He never does. He could just grab her but he’d rather have a chat first. He seizes any moment of stimulation and interest and excitement. But there are some sort of Groundhog Day things going on. Early stages we talked about, just as a sort of backstory, that maybe Dracula spent a century being good just to see what it’s like. Maybe – because he talks to Harker about it – he tried suicide but it doesn’t work. Maybe he absolutely reached the end thinking, “I can’t do this anymore.” but “oh God, I can’t die.” And then you make the decision to go on but then that must be fueled by something different: “I need more of me.” And then it becomes an obsession, it becomes a mission, and over centuries you forget where you came from. And so you forget that actually the sunlight is fine. It all becomes an armour of shame.

Dracula is obsessed with survival. Lucy is nihilistic. That’s a flavor he’s never really tasted before and he sort of envies the ability to be okay with death, which he isn’t. He certainly finds that flavor seductive but he wasn’t necessarily working out why. It’s Zoe/Agatha – “Zagatha” as we call her – who figures out the connection that binds all this together: he knows he is a warlord who’s afraid to die. And that means he is trying to hide from himself. He lives like a scuttling rat. He wouldn’t stand in the sunlight. He wouldn’t look himself in the mirror. He wants to be invited in, he does not wish to be despised. All those dreadful things he’s built around himself that aren’t even true – they are just in him. These rules and habits become fetishes. He’s forgotten himself and what [the rules are] all about. And in a way, we tried to give this a solution.

Fear of the cross was such a technical one. Dracula knows he is debasing himself to avoid death and there is the symbol of “die for your beliefs” and he can’t. He finds it hard to look at. He watched his own sons die in battle and he couldn’t. It’s a very powerful idea, what that might do to you. This mighty man, this amazing warlord defeated the Turk and did all these amazing things but he got this curse, this contagion, and the only thing he couldn’t do was to die a proper death. He just talks the talk. This is Agatha’s revelation while she is dying herself. He wants to have the courage to die. “Zagatha” says, “You want to defeat death but the only way to defeat death is to face it without fear.” Now that’s unfortunate. The only way to defeat death is to actually die. And that’s what he does at the end. He gets his act together, he goes into battle and he dies.

We were very happy with that as an ending. Dracula is a very hard character to kill but he certainly found a resolution, let’s put it that way. It felt very moving when he was lying across “Zagatha” on the table, drinking her blood. There was a sort of full-stop-ness to “You didn’t think I’d let it hurt, did you?” It was such an iron process of not revealing that that story is happening. I think everyone who watches goes, “Hang on. Those two. Those two, there is something weird there.” But it’s not acknowledged, really, until the very end. And indeed when he says it, “After all this time, did you think I’d let it hurt?”, you know. Of course he wouldn’t. So it’s rather sweet. I like it. He finally does actually bend a little. Claes does a lovely delivery on the line “You’re in pain.” And she says, “I’m equal to it.” But she doesn’t notice that what he says is, “You’re in pain.” He’s aware of somebody else’s pain for the first time as a bad idea. And being aware of somebody else’s pain is surely the gateway drug to morality. It’s not morality itself but it’s just the beginning of “somebody else suffering? I don’t like it. At least I don’t like that person suffering.” We liked that. We are sentimental. Love can redeem anyone.

Thank you’s are due when thank you’s are due

With my recurring obsession with dracula these past couple of days, i was wondering how long has it been since i’ve become obsessed with the whole thing and as it turns out, i’ve opened this blog on the 27th of January, which makes it 4 months ago.

--Queue me @ me 4 months and 1 week ago: Come on, he is not ~that~ good looking. who was i kidding dude?

Anyway, what i wanted to say is that in those 4 months, with 3/4 of them being in isolation, you guys helped me a lot to cope with the whole thing. I mean i don’t mind being inside the house, but you actually kept me entertained and with making those gifsets myself i felt like i was doing something rather than stare at the ceiling, you know? All in all you guys put a smile on my face when i come here. So thank you very much for brightening my dull days!

And i’ve seen so many creative people in here, with your gifs and humorous posts and your art and your stories..

omg, did you know that before this fandom i had never ever read fanfiction? (my brain: of course not, how would they know, can they read your mind?) Not because i didn’t believe in fanfic, but i had never found any story to keep me interested. Now..well..ffs bring more for me to read.

or that i’ve never called anyone “daddy” before, but you thirsty people showed me the way to corruption and i thank you for that.

last but not least. the mf kinks this fandom shares. ooof you guys. Sometimes it feels like you’ve read my mind when i see you comments and tags and just..never stop thirsting

-- Is2g this is one of the nicest, kindest and not judgy fandoms i’ve ever come across off, and i hope that it will continue being like this. Ok yes, it’s not that i talk on the daily with everyone in here and i guess sometimes I, myself seem distant?! ( i don’t know, i don’t feel like that,but hey i’m shy too sometimes) but you can tell that this fandom has a lot of kind souls within it.  I can only wish this fandom will continue to grow and that more people will find out about Claes cause he deserves everything (honestly, i mean come on.. everyone should know about him) but like also i can’t help myself feeling really content with the “small” amount of people who are thirsting over him right now cause it feels like i know everyone. which i don’t.obviously

ok, this is long enough already, so i’m gonna leave it at that.

Thank you again for being here and sharing my thirst, and kinks and love for this gorgeous tall dark handsome dude :-)

#i ain't gonna tag it with his name #cause i don't wan to clog the tag #but this goes out to every single one of you #like really thank you so so much dudes #and know that my inbox is always open if you want to thirst over ~him~ #or just talk tbh #have a great evening/day #rumblings

[lets-talk-about-claes-baby]

Dracula as series and Claes as an actor are nominated. No Dolly Wells for some incoherable reason.

Will this make a difference for making season 2? Well i don't know.. but since someone decided that no interviews from the cast were to happen and with minimal post series advertising, this might help?!

Hey people, vote here for our baby boy claes ❤️ and for the show (Dracula BBC). And please spread the link

#vote people vote #are those awards mean something? #lol #idc really #just give me season 2

-I like you, but in a I will gladly hang you way!

Both: omg soulmate!

“Agatha is super bright and there’s a little reckless mad bit of her that likes the challenge: ‘Can I talk my way out of this noose?’ There’s also an element which is hard to miss, a conversation taking place over the heads of everyone between Agatha and Dracula. Dracula is going, ‘Oh nice. Good one. Oh, *you* are a vampire?” and she says, ‘a foul, stinking monstrosity’ and he goes, “oohh!” It’s the most ridiculous flirtation you’ve ever seen, especially as it ends with him trying to hang her. There’s no question that he’s fond of her and endlessly entertained by her, but it won’t stop him hanging her. And it doesn’t stop her setting him alight later.”
