How do you think Dracula and Hawkins met? He refers to the man as a friend, but he also refers to Jonathan, who he just met, as a friend...which I assume is a disarming tactic to make people feel more comfortable.
The most likely scenario is that Dracula simply did his research about estate law in England, contacted somebody and got a referral to Peter Hawkins, and that was that. Which of course leads to the question of who Dracula's contact in England is...
.... so uh. How much do we know about the life of Renfield before he ended up in the asylum?

I talk a lot about Nathalie on this blog but I don't mention Placide much
I have this headcanon that they're best friends. Like. Super close. Which I think is really funny given the different backgrounds, but also you can't work for Gabe for 15+ years and not make fun of him behind his back with someone.
Also I have a headcanon that they're both autistic and Placide is nonverbal but they can communicate basically just by raising their eyebrows at each other.
Idk I just think they're really cute in a platonic/sibling way.

Thank you for the tag @littlehen ❤️
Last song: the bf has been arranging music for his work pantomime and choir, so an equal split between a Hunchback of Notre Dame medley and Made You Look by Meghan Traynor
Currently watching: Mad Men from the beginning (now three episodes into the second series). The production design continues to be 💯💯💯
Currently reading: Molotov's Magic Lantern, with a slight digression into the History of England that Jane Austen wrote when she was 15
Current obsession: Obsession isn't quite the right word but I'm working as the costume supervisor on three operas (Fedora, Alice in Wonderland, and Iolanta), and I'm gearing up for them to completely take over my life for a bit

In February 1529, Campeggio was to say that Henry's love was 'something amazing, and in fact he sees nothing and thinks nothing but Anne. He cannot stay away from her for an hour; it is really quite pitiable, and on it depends his life, and indeed the destruction or survival of this kingdom.' Surely Campeggio had got to the heart of the matter, for without the intensity of that love [...] it is difficult to see how Henry could have sustained the campaign for the five and half years that were needed, or that he would have jeopradized so much in order to do so.
The King’s Cardinal (2002), Peter Gwyn
