June 25: Dead or Asleep

My MCR-poisoned brain couldn’t help but make this chapter into fan fiction one shot to Famous Last Words:

Dracula: Now I know that I can't make you stay… and that’s why I sent letters in your name to let everyone believe you’re alright while I keep you hostage… I am not afraid to keep on living…I am not afraid to walk this world alone…Honey, if you stay, I'll be forgiven…Nothing you can say can stop me going… to London

Jonathan: I see you lying in a coffin in your cellar…With words I thought I'd never speak…Awake and unafraid, asleep or dead!

Jonathan: Nothing you can say can stop me going home to marry my fiancé Mina!

i personally am loving collectively watching jon harker be mystified by paprika, ignore every warning given to him, and ready to fuck (his life up) in real time.

Dracula is clearly a cooking blog--we just have to get through the long story before the recipes.

Dracula Daily posting starts in 3 - 2 - 1

(Also need to get into it for research about serialized novels)

May 8 - Our mutual friend Jonathan experiences a panic attack

[sophielovesbooks]

Actual hot take:

I think maybe a big part of Dracula Daily's success (and perhaps also the success of all those Netflix reality tv shows like Love Is Blind??) is that media has become so asynchronous. You can never really talk to your friends about any shows because either it's "Oh, I haven't seen that but it's on my list" or "I watched that ages ago, I barely remember it, remind me who [character X] was?" or "STOP TALKING, I'm on Season 2, no spoilers!!"

And it's kind of upsetting, because we cannot really discuss media anymore the way people were able to when a show was on TV and everyone kind of experienced it together. Synchronous media is an event, it's fun, everybody can participate! Now we're drowning in recommendations of what we "should watch", and the list gets longer and longer, but even when we do get around to a particular show, we almost never properly discuss it with the friend who recommended it and it's just frustrating.

So yeah. My take is that humans actually kind of really enjoy synchronous media consumption, which has been greatly reduced by streaming, and perhaps Dracula Daily is filling that gap for us right now, you know?

I love that while Jonathan is now aware he is imprisoned at the spooky castle and very clearly afraid for his life, he also still nerds out about the stories the count tells him. He definitely doesn’t let fear spoil the fun for him

[glueblade]

I appreciate the realism of Jonathan’s travel journal being mostly about food and train delays and occasional complaints about sleeping badly

@thekidsmaybealright tagged me and I guess you didn’t expect me to do this so soon, ha gottcha!

The last celebrity saved in your camera roll is who you’ll be quarantined with

Guess I have to spend my quarantine with young Stephen Sondheim: We would write musicals and maybe a play together and walk around the house in our dressing gowns.

I‘m only tagging @queer-is-the-universe because it’s all her fault (and I am kinda thankful for that :)

Look at him, he’s so cute. He turned 90 a few days ago

[snufkind]

everybody loves to talk about velma and daphne but y’all seem to forget that velma and hot dog water from mystery incorporated were obviously gay

[friendraichu]

h-hot dog water?

[jimhensonreject]

Her name was hot dog water because her father was a carnival owner and they were so poor she had to bath with the used hot dog water. Also she was murdered by Nazi robots under the command of a Hannibal lector bird Scooby Doo influenced by a cosmic embodiment of horror but then brought back to life when Scooby Doo killed it

one thing i love about queen is that 80% of the time, they never look like they’re dressed for the same event
