Since you compare them to Santhony...what’s Richiekisa?

HAHAHA just my otp to end all otps, the number one, the one all others are judged against, you know the deal. 

So, Richie and Kisa are characters in From Dusk Till Dawn, the series. It is... honestly, as different from Bridgerton as you could possibly get. I think I know five people, besides myself, that have watched both shows and there's good reason for that. I would never rec FDTD to Bridgerton fans or vice-versa. It's about two criminal brothers (Richie and Seth), running from the police, crossing the border into Mexico and getting involved with Mexican snake vampires (culebras). Kisa is one of those vampires, lmao. It's based on the Robert Rodriguez movie and it's everything you could expect, it's gritty, bloody, full of gore, unapologetically trashy at times, but also full of complex characters and relationships.

Now, about richiekisa, it's not that are that similar to santhony, it's more like there are elements in common to both ships that attract me. Except santhony is the fluff version and richiekisa is dark and twisty. I don't even know how to explain everything they go through without major spoilers that you probably don't care about. It starts with Kisa invading Richie's mind and making him hallucinate things in order to get him to Mexico because she has been imprisoned for centuries and he is the only one who can set her free. So, like, nothing to do with santhony, lol. But, if you're still with me, their first meeting in person is Kisa pole dancing and Richie watching her gobsmacked, not unlike Anthony and Siena in 1.04. And you get one my favorite parallels, which is that both these women are performers and they do so not only on the stage, but out of it too, in order to survive in a world dominated by men that see them as nothing more than things to be owned. And Kisa needs Richie (first to free herself and then to take down the man who imprisoned her) so her seduction of him is, in part, based on that, but at the same time you get these really sweet moments between them that show how much she cares for him and how pained she is that she has so much baggage and so many issues that she can't give him the type of relationship and commitment that he wants. Season two deals with them realizing that being together isn't easy and eventually, Richie betrays her to get what he wants (aka, the richiekisa equivalent of Anthony breaking up with Siena). But you see that, even though he betrayed her, he still loves her, and she also acknowledges that, but saying that what they had couldn't last forever. Season three doesn't deal much with them, but you still get Richie pining for Kisa from afar (Anthony much?) and understanding her without her even saying anything and she cries when she thinks he is dead! So, yeah, that's my otp.

I don't know if all I said makes sense, but maybe to understand where i'm coming from: my kisa and siena parallels gifset; richiekisa exile set x santhony exile set; and  this santhony set is based on a richiekisa quote.

im anon from last time about fdtd ITS SO GOOD and sethkate is so...Good like .... do you have any fanfic recs that you love? x

YESSSS im glad you love it!! i need to rewatch s3 tbh… anyway i can’t say I’ve read a lot of sethkate fic. partly bc of the age gap lol i think that may be the reason, i dont particularly like reading explicit fic of them (Yes i know they are now both consenting adults and I’m not shaming anyone who likes reading sethkate smut, it’s just not been my cup of tea)

but i firmly believe @wellamyblake characterizes them so so unerringly well in her drabble series Tales from a Mexican Honeymoon (set between s1 and s2, so if you havent finished s1 you might wanna wait).

Also read @mellamymake‘s drabble Is It Such a Problem? because it’s so IC and entertaining. She has a bunch of sethkate stories on her profile and she is a great writer in general so you really can’t go wrong there, if you want more.
