Ever hear a song that you KNOW is something someone you cut off is fucking playing to act all sad and mopey about you leaving? Follow up question: how do keep yourself from beating the shit out of someone without feeling like you're going to literally explode
#mud rambles#bad coping mechanism hours el oh el#just ruminating dw#I need to fucking sleep lmfao#anyway to indulge my paranoia a bit!#reminder to people I explicitly cut off and/or don't speak to for a reason that you're doing nothing but stroking your own bitchass ego by#'checking up on me' aka stalking my page#learn to not be such a self centered bitch and grow actual human decency <3 and sincerely fuck you#if I wanted your fucking concern i wouldn't have cut you off#it's kinda fucking late for it especially when i was literally fucking begging for it while we were still 'friends'!#you don't get to keep pretending you care!#and as much as you wanna delude yourself into thinking you actually do care trust me as someone who has actual delusions. you don't#you wouldn't have treated me the way you did if you actually had. especially when i literally. fucking begged you to work with me#stop making excuses. stop 'explaining.' i don't fucking care. it doesn't fucking matter#i've already gone over every possible fucking reason you would've done what you did. trying to 'offer an explanation' does nothing#except. again. stroke your own fucking ego#i've already recognized i'm at fault for letting myself be your fucking doormat and not standing up for myself sooner#however! lol! doesn't fucking mean i deserved what happened or that your 'reasons' matter#you assholes know i'm incredibly self aware. more self aware than y'all like to pretend i am#because to y'all i'm either a stinky dumb man who doesn't get it or just 'your boy' who apparently has just as much self reflection as y'al#which is to say. lol. absolutely fucking none#some advice. stop projecting and work on your motherfucking selves. i've been doing it since beffore i even met y'all#as much as y'all wanna ACT incompetent. you're not. grow the fuck up. you're both literally significantly older than me.#anyway that's enough for now I need to be normal. do something before i go to sleep so i don't just stay up thinking about this lol#because i'm at least actually putting effort into being a functional adult :-)

Vincent Sinclair HC
Tumblr media
Vincent Sinclair hc SFW and NSFW
I’ve haven’t  been seeing my boy get repped recently so I have to do it myself. My first time writing something on here or towards this character ,I promise I will get better y'al,l I made this super quickly not proofread oops.
SFW
-While he can be insecure about his face he definitely has an ego from being the favorite child and having perfected his craft.
Lester drags him out to go for a ride around town or force him to come to his place for some quality brother time (Bo joins every now and then but wants peace and quiet dammit )
‘I know a lot of people have him learn sign language but I think he either writes what he wants to say, speaks as best as he can, or gestures, ( he was born in the south to parents that I don't think cared about communicating with him too much but he could have picked it up later in life maybe in his teen years or middle school era)
More sadistic than Bo when it comes to killing, he doesn't care if they are dead or alive when working on them and takes satisfaction in the result of his work
He prefers to work in silence but you can catch him humming now and then some country song or a guilty pleasure pop song from the 80’s( I see you Vince)
I think he partakes in multiple forms of art besides wax work.We see he’s able to paint, draw, but he also  takes pictures, , sews, writes, makes videos, anything artistic he’s learning and keeping up with new techniques.
Since he takes video of the killings at times I think they sell them as snuff films to make extra cash on top of stealing and selling victims stuff. (At least that’s what I thought when I first watched the film anyone else or just me)
Rarely happens but will keep victims that interest him like Bo ,but dispose of them when they get boring  or no longer match up the ideal version of them in his head.
-Does want a lifelong partner, the white wedding and picket fence, kids,  but knows it might be difficult with the line of work he does.
- He can talk but only does when it’s important or to emphasize something. He does have a southern draw like Bo and I imagine his voice to sound similar but raspier, maybe deeper/ quieter from not using it as much.
-like I said earlier you have to really catch his attention and be able to hold it for more than a week, if that happens then he’s obsessed and protective maybe a little too over protective.
Does indeed have a hair care routine I believe this full throttle and no one can can tell me otherwise I'm not listening.
NSFW
I don't know if he’s a virgin, I don't think he is something is telling me he isn't, but i’m not sure
He has no problem with nudity, bodies are seen as art, there's not as much of a sexual connotation with them as with Bo and Lester .
He wants to be in love with the person he is intimate with, he wants to be worship and worship his muse.
Drawings  of his partner naked as well as in the midst of a passionate night, he might tease them all night to make sure the sketch is as life like and accurate as possible
Good size and thick that's all I gotta say
Praise kink hard core, hearing his partner call him a good boy or how he makes them feel so good he will crumble
He starts slow and sensual, enjoys the control he has and having someone at his power.
I think he will edge you and leave you high and dry when you act out but he always caves by the end of the day and gives you what you need.
Can last a long time surprisingly
Mainly a giver but someone please for the love of god give this man the nastiest had he’s ever received will make the prettiest noises 
Is down to try anything new and more open about sex than you would think.
When he’s horny he comes up behind his partner and starts caressing every inch he can reach, while resting his chin on their shoulder acting as innocent as he can.

In Which Pennhung Has Friends, Is an Angel And Deserves Better
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I really am glad that Maki and White found their way to visit Pennhung, even if did mean that the school had actually punished him for, you know, being innocent (again, issues with this lesson y'al). But his instant assumptions that they came to visit him because they're also being punished broke my heart.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pennhung and his croissant make the world a better place.
Tumblr media
That is a very loaded phrase.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The boy with the perfect memory who can remember every single duckling and tell them apart but can't hold a grudge, who can't bear to be locked up alone but barely knows how to talk to people, who holds deep knowledge but struggles to share it in a way people listen to or respect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally. He gets the chance to speak and people listen. Thank fuck that anyone is still listening to him because at least that lets them start to do what they need to do to actually help him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
White is absolutely my second favorite character in this show. You go. Tell them off! Go yell at those adults some more! You understand what's going on.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pennhung Protection Squad is go!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hope the guilt of this eats her alive for the rest of her life. But also tiny Pennhung in the corner just trying to make it through (though I have some suspicions that he wasn't as isolated as we're lead to believe since he truly wasn't supposed to be punished... but we may never know.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You know what's even better in a society? If the people in charge don't unjustly punish the innocent in the first place? Or let other people argue for them? Or listen to people when they say they know someone is innocent?
Yeah.
All of that.
Also, this is just such a bad way to teach this. Because what lesson did Pennhung learn in this? Be punished for being who you are? Other people will blame you for their issues? Forgive people no matter what they do to you?
Tumblr media
Happy Pennhung is back!
Tumblr media
And then instantly breaks my heart again, this baby boy. Look at him! Startled and nervous because, you know, he just spent several days isolated and locked up because of the people walking up to him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The single most forgiving person in the entire universe. An actual angel. No one can ever come close to being as forgiving as this. Look at him! His smile! His forgiveness! Their completely shock! Yeah, you learn to be a better person from Pennhung. Go ahead and even try to be half as good as him!
Tumblr media
I hope they make the same mistake and he never forgives them.
... I am being very petty but they deserve so much worse than him instantly forgiving them.

• Oh I can tell you how! First, we're gonna walk in there and start marveling at every single thing in the room, specifically the bed, even though we've already been in there. Then, bet y'all won't see this coming, we're gonna find a box filled with naughty things😱😱😱 After that, we get to work and all that can be registered is the feeling of our partner's soft lips and how their hands caress our body in every place possible and then after a while we both reach our climax at the same time. Then our partner says they love us blah blah blah, we get some text about what's happening tomorrow and it's prolly the baby challenge or something equally stupid and ridiculous, and then we cuddle up and go to bed.
• If everything I just said is in next week's hideaway scene, everyone who likes this post owes me $10. I'm just playing, we all know everything I said is definitely happening. Keep your money💖

nocturne review, ramblings
obvs spoilers for the show down below.
so, i'm gonna be real with y'all; i dont think i would have watched this if not for one of my mutuals spilling the beans about alucard making an appearance 💀 s4 was ok and a fine conclusion to the og castlevania that started this animated franchise, but i dont think i will ever get over the absolute fumble and frankly, insulting way they wrapped up s3. even s4 had its cringe moments, like lenore getting a peaceful sendoff and carmilla getting to kill herself. but, i digress. i was going into nocturne with an already negative mindset and that may have made me more critical of the show. can u blame me though? lmao
i had seen a few clips and screenshots on twitter when they dropped the first 3 eps early and... they only helped solidify my decision to remain skeptical of the staff's writing capabilities. shit was already a little hazy and wishy-washy with their portrayal of isaac in s2 and how they treated hector thruought the show (not to mention the two asian-coded characters in s3). let's just say, the netflix castlevania team doesnt have the greatest track record when it comes to writing poc characters. so, when i saw screengrabs just outright stating that this show was going to deal with historically accurate racism? hm.
obvs as a white woman, i can only go so far on this criticism of the writing, but i dont really understand why they needed to include this? the comparisons and allegory of freedom from indentured servitude to the french revolution, was very weak and bare bones at best. you can keep the motif of the church existing on exploitation and blood of the people-- a whole cross section of the world was involved in the crusades, which is the priests & his entourages whole deal--but, why couldnt annette just be a witch? why did this "historical accuracy" need to get involved with the time period? bcuz the french revolution was name dropped? your main villain is a hungarian countess from the 16th century that made a pact with an EGYPTIAN goddess to become all powerful. like.
and also..... why the FUCK are vampires getting involved with the intercontinental slave trade bro??? 😭 theyre immortal beings that have seen the rise and fall of empires and can do whatever tf they want and go wherever tf they want and they choose to..... own a plantation? give af abut the economy? with selling goods??? okkkkk. also, this line of dialogue is insane to me:
Tumblr media
you cant have a central theme of your story be standing up against the oppressors and then make said oppressors fantastical monsters. what kills me is that they've delved into the monstrosity of humanity in s1 and s2, and yet, when you bring in one of the most monstrous things humanity has ever done in its history for the sake of historical accuracy, you turn the very perpetrators into something mythical, and evil that the common folk had no chance of ever defeating even if they tried. its just overall, very messy and they certainly were not the creative team to try and tackle something like this.
speaking of, the writing, again, it definitely left something to be desired. there are moments that are good, don't get me wrong. episode 6 is a particular favorite of mine, shining through with its wonderful character moments b/w annette's soul searching with her ancestors, richter and juste's heart to heart, and olrox's confessions to mizrak. tera's sacrifice to ensure maria's safety is also really well done, as well as maria's final confrontation with her father in the church. however, these were fewer and farther between than i would have liked. a lot of the scenes that played out just fine, were ultimately sullied by this series' incessant need to insert swearing into every other sentence. its something that bothered me nearing the end of s4 especially, and i've just grown tired of it. it honestly takes me out of the scene to constantly hear fuck thrown out every 2 seconds for literally... no reason. i promise y'all can write meaningful and impactful dialogue without having your characters swear lmao
the writing itself is what unfortunately makes the first half of the show kind of drag a bit. the story doesn't really know what it wants to do. none of these new characters are really given time to breathe and be really fleshed out, bcuz every time things settle down and we're given the chance to learn more about their motivations, its like they're almost scared they'll lose your attention and any down time is immediately followed up with an intense action sequence. which, dont get me wrong, if theres one thing they dont disappoint with--its the action. but, i dont think that was ever up for debate to begin with. however, i believe that the characters really suffer bcuz of this. if you've never played the games, which, i believe most people tuning in to watch these series never have, you would have no idea who maria or richter are, and, i really don't think they were given enough time to be fleshed out. half the time, richter's dialogue just ends up being naive, walmart trevor belmont sarcastic one-liners and poor maria ping-pongs b/w the blandest, generic, wonderbread toutings of 'revolution' or calling richter a dick, wanker, or anything in b/w. episode 6, one of the better episodes as mentioned previously, is where we really get to see some actual growth around richter especially. there were moments where his trauma could have been further explored earlier, but they kind of got shoved to the wayside in favor of dragging out the interworking bw all the villains. which.....
if i'm gonna talk about the villains. my initial thoughts were that nocturne was going to be a one-and-done, standalone series with its own self contained story that would be wrapped up in these 8 episodes. i was wrong. and i really dont know how they're going to keep this story going. erzsebet is already a very weak and uninteresting and, honestly, confusing ? villain? for more than half of the series, she's talked about as the mysterious and all powerful Messiah and theyre gathering all these sacrifices for her to bring her back and create an army of night creatures. why is she considered powerful? bcause she made a pact with Sekhmet, an egyptian goddess. why did she do this? who knows! why does she have such a devoted cult of loyal followers when she hasnt done anything but kill a lot of people? again, who knows. why did maria's father think that a VAMPIRE would keep him in cahoots during this whole plan and not immediately fuck him over once she got what she wanted...? who fucking knows. olrox is the most interesting of the villains but even he isnt fully explored. the motivations are just not really explained very well and the buildup to erzsebet's arrival was so sudden that i literally thought i missed an entire episode. one minute, shes hiding in the shadows and the next ? waltzing in on a golden chariot and being heralded as the people's savior?? so damn messy and honestly? i really could not have cared less about her. which is insane to say, bcuz shes literally based off of a real countess who's case and life were a special interest of mine. i just... why an EGYPTIAN goddess?? shes from HUNGARY. were there no goddesses in europe to pull from she could have made a pact with? idk man it just makes no damn sense.
i am definitely more than a little peeved that this wasn't even the complete story, bcuz they did such a poor job establishing erzsebet as a villain, that i really dont give af what crazy shit they come up with to extend the story. you show her being a big badass in the very last episode. ok, you as an audience member, are immediately shown why dracula is so feared within the first 10 minutes of the first episode. and all of that wasnt even HIM fighting!!! the worst thing i've seen miss countess bathory do over here is summon a crazy orb and turn into a furry. like, where is the story going to go from here? they fight tera? save edouard and have a night creature alliance? make maria or alucard (yes, i'll get to him) summon the portal again? which btw... machine from HELL? im not even gonna touch that can of worms. somehow bring olrox back to.....? help kill bathory? idfk
and man...... i was hoping against hope that when i found out alucard was going to make an appearance, that it was just going to be some neat little cameo at the v end of the series after the main story had concluded. a little nod, a little treat to the audience that the next series would be encompassing the events of symphony of the night. maybe we'd even get a depiction of maria and richter when theyre older, i dont know, anything but throwing him in there as an overpowered hail mary to save the day. we couldnt just let these new characters figure it out and triumph in their own way? we had to drag him into this, now? i cant even tell you how disappointed i was when i saw that sword pierce drolta. ME! the resident alucard fan since i was like mf elementary school!!! ugh.
i think this is it for me and netflix castlevania lmao im a grumpy old man and miss when it was mainly fun easter eggs to the games, like how they brought in juste or how olrox turns into a big green monster and has an attack that sends flying skulls your way, or the REMIX of RICHTER'S THEME!!! but its just gotten so silly and the writing hasnt gotten any better..... from now on, im going to simply stick to the games that made me fall in love with this series in the first place & let this be the last time i ever feel the need to bitch about new 'netflixvania' content.

excusing violence against a character is not okay either, you know;; because it starts with one punch and just because it was buck this time;; even though he didn't deserve it;; doesn't mean it won't be maddie the next
i speak 4 languages fluently and 3 at a meh level, what language do you want me to use to explain that we're not excusing chim punching buck but that doesn't mean we have to coddle buck or immediately put down chim, either???
the thing this fandom entirely struggles with is seeing that every situation has layers, and the whole mcfreaking point of s5 (especially 5b) is to break all these characters down to their worst bits because they're going through horrible things. chim, at the time of said punch, was going out of his mind because a) he didn't know where maddie - who was already struggling with ppd - was b) he didn't know about jee's accident c) he had too many puzzle pieces and no way to put them together and d) buck had known about jee's accident and didn't tell him.
this isn't as easy as "oh chim's wrong because he punched buck" or "buck's wrong because he didn't tell chim." there is no right answer because there's no damn question - it's entirely a gray situation.
yes, you're right that many times, it does start with one punch that you don't see coming, and it would be naive and unfair of me to deny that - but that is not the case here. The whole point of them putting that scene in there is exactly because we know chim would never lay a hand on anyone — it's not ooc, it's him reacting with a base urge because he hit his own breaking point. was it right? absolutely not. is anyone with braincells saying that? also absolutely not.
chim's not an abuser, and maddie isn't "next" and to simply use/allude to those terms as you see fit isn't okay because it completely invalidates the struggles of people who are going through domestic violence - and a character who has gone through domestic violence - did you not hear her conviction that chim wouldn't hurt her in 5x12? for her to say that even after all these months and in the middle of her own mental health struggles is literally all the proof you need.
i don't know how y'al get the rhetoric that this man who flipped his whole life upside down to live in a stranger city with a newborn baby for his mentally-struggling partner is an abuser but it's gotta stop.

February 16, 2008
Big Bend National Park, Texas
"Ian, why are we going the ass-end of the desert in the middle of February?" "Because it's this or when it's 115 in the shade." "Ian?" "Yes, Gav?" "Why did we rent this Jeep, anyway?" "Because the Aston Martin is not a desert back country vehicle." Anders slumped against Kazuo, snoring.  "Do we have to share a tent with our snoring son?" "No, we have two tents…" "Ian snores, too, Kaz." "Oh god, we're surrounded!" "I can drop all of you out here in no man's land."
"We'll be good!" 
They turned onto the Pine Canyon trail, bouncing over rocks as the road turned from asphalt to dirt.  Anders woke with a start, "What century is it?!" "It's 2008, kid.  Also, you snore." Anders leaned dramatically on Kazuo, mock snoring.  "Get off!". Anders leaned harder into Kazuo, mashing him against the window.  "Ian, help." "Nah." Kazuo groaned while Anders grinned.  Gav focused his attention out the window, watching the desert roll by.  Ian leaned out his window, looking for the campsite.
"Gav, keep an eye out...Kazuo's….preoccupied…"
Gav grinned, drumming his fingers on the dashboard, fascinated.  He'd never seen desert before - his trip from Detroit to Austin had been cities, plains, and forests.  Ian grinned, pulling into one site, "Here we are!" "Gav.  Lemme out." The redhead opened the door and Kazuo scrambled out, away from his son.  Ian stretched languidly, surveying their campground.  Mountains were visible under a slate grey sky, clouds hanging low, threatening rain.
"It's perfect."
"It looks like it's gonna storm."
"Oh good, we can be electrocuted in a dusty hellscape."
"So dramatic.  Well then, we'd best get our tents up, lads." He went to the back of the Jeep, opening it up, and two tents immediately fell down, surrounded by duffel bags, grocery bags, and a large cooler.  "My god.  There's so much." "Well, there are four of us.  We definitely need the groceries.  And clothes." Gav laid out one tent, studying it while Ian grabbed a beer.  "Alright, I'll help Gav, Kazuo you help Anders with his tent."
"Oh, this tent is never getting done," Anders muttered.  "It's easy!  Lay it out like so...add the supports, stakes through the loops, and…" "OW!" "Kazuo, please don't break our son's fingers." "I'm workin' with one hand, honey...HEY!  Ian, your son's throwing tiny rocks at me!" "They're called pebbles." "You two behave or I'll make you share a tent.  Alright, add on the rain cover so we don't get soaked...then throw in the sleeping bags, duffel bags in, and flashlights so when we get up to piss in the night we don't fall in a pit."
As he said that, the first drops of rain began to fall.  "Ah, damn," Anders said, grabbing his duffel bag and sleeping bag and throwing it in his tent, "I'll see you dads when the rain stops," and jumped in his tent,  zipping it up.  "He's gone." "We can lure him out later with dinner," Kazuo said, lugging out his bag and crawling into the tent.  Gav grabbed his and Kazuo's sleeping bags, while Ian grabbed the rest of the bags and locked the food and cooler in a large, metal box.
"Why'd you lock it in that?" "Bears." "BEARS?!" "You said nothing about BEARS." "WHAT'S THAT ABOUT BEARS?!" Anders poked his head from the tent. "Don't keep any food in the tent and you'll be fine.  Car, too, pretty sure the insurance doesn't cover damage done by bear." "Oh Jesus, we're all going to die.  Mauled to death by Gentle Ben." "Furious Ben?" "Malicious Ben." "Brutal Ben," Ian ducked into the tent, straightening the sleeping bags.  "And tomorrow we can go hiking!"
"Hooray."
"You love walking around Town Lake!"
"Yes, but that's pretty easy, it's nice, it's shaded and the paletas man comes around.  Also, no bears." "....and mountain lions," Ian added quietly. "What was that?" "MOUNTAIN LIONS?!" Anders stuck his head out of the tent again.  "Yeah," Ian admitted. Gav fell to his knees, "We're all gonna die!  We'll have to use Kazuo as bait." "JUST ONE SECOND THERE."
"Oh my god, y'all are so god damn dramatic!  It's a PARK!  Nobody's dying, and we're not sacrificing anyone to the bears!" "Promise?" "Yes, Kazuo." "Okay then.  Good.". At that moment, the heavens opened up, drenching all four men immediately.  "Dad Ian?" "Yes, son?"
"If I'm ever a dad….I'm never making my kid go camping."
