worried that thing you put in your art or writing or game or music is too self-indulgent, too self-referential, too niche for anyone but yourself? fear not! you can do whatever you want forever. and you should.
how dare adaptations make dracula/mina the ship when first of all, jonathan is the obvious gothic heroine of the book, and second of all mina would put the fear of God in dracula for touching her man. she proposed to him as soon as he woke up from his coma and MARRIED him while he was in the sick bed of a catholic hospital, this girl is Not Normal either
I love how in the Dracula Daily fandom, we don’t say that we are beginning once again on May 3rd.
Rather, we say “my dear friend Johnathan is preparing for his upcoming trip. I hope he has such a wonderful time and that he brings back some delicious recipes :)”
Trying to remember the last time I played hide and seek. The last time I said hi to everyone on the street or saw the girls I spent every day of six years with. The last time my dad picked me up, or my mum brushed my hair. When was the last time I dressed without consideration? There is so much to think about now. I remember falling on the grass at school and making stories with the clouds. Hanging upside down from the swing and realising how big the world was. I wonder on the path of growing when we stop feeling big. I am taller now, smaller still.
AITA for being annoyed my client/host threw my only mirror out of a window?
I (22M) am a solicitor and currently staying at a client’s castle in Transylvania. As I was shaving this morning my client (??M) grabbed my mirror, got mad at me for bleeding, called the mirror a “foul bauble of man’s vanity” and threw it out of the castle window. I was annoyed and was going to say something but then I noticed he was making my bed even though he says he has servants(?? I have yet to see one)
Edit: is it strange that I didn’t see his reflection in the mirror??
Mina and Jonathan Harker are such good examples of the fact evil can never really know who it is up against.
Jonathan Harker is a mild mannered junior solicitor. Mina Harker is a former etiquette teacher turned housewife. There is nothing to distinguish them from anybody else but they're this great nobleman-turned- monster's greatest foes. They're ordinary people living ordinary lives, until when confronted with great evil their strength of character becomes all that stands between him and victory. You can't target them in preparation because you'd have to target the whole world. They don't stand out. They're not seeking greatness. They simply stand for love, and they don't stop.
