Claudia Appreciation Week: "The Unholy Family"

Interview with the Vampire (2022) | Interview with the Vampire, Anne Rice | The Vampire Lestat, Anne Rice

[coyluvr]

shauna shipman is so tragic to me because like...the girl who you shared your very being with dies and each segment of you that holds her is slowly rotting away. You sit beside her corpse and while your guilt and malice and devotion can hold her form, it won't feed your hunger. So you eat her ear, because you will always be the first to consume her, then the other girls eat her too because nothing gets to be yours alone when it comes to her. But her flesh feeds your baby, and when you give birth, she becomes part of him too. Then he dies too, and you bury him in the snow, so he can be yours alone, so he can know the cold like Jackie did. And then your rescued, and you latch onto anything that remains of her. Her favorite flower covers your walls, you see her parents every week, her boyfriend is yours and your daughter is her. And then you realise, they can be taken too. So you isolate yourself, let that severing wound she left become necrotic, because you've tried healing it with others, but it just takes them too. Then you meet a guy. He's funny and makes you feel young, and he's devoted to you the way she was. And that rotting wound begins to seal up. But you grow suspicious, and those months of fear fog your mind, and your scared, so you do what you know best. You bite. And now he's dead. And the wound is open again.

me confidently: yeah I'm sort of like if Jackie was a loser even before the crash

lottienat as believer vs. non-believer gets even more interesting when you take into account their contrasting connection to drugs: nat takes them to detach herself from reality whereas lottie needs them to anchor herself in reality

i LOVE gut wrenching fics ; i love angst ; i love hurt/no comfort ; i love angst with no happy ending ESPECIALLY if those fics are jackieshauna or taivan, so if someone has any recommendation im here :)

thinking about how taissa saw that pen and immediately thought that van would like it. how many times has this happened over the years. how many times has taissa watched a new movie and caught herself thinking that van would say that it's complete crap. how many times has taissa seen something beautiful or funny and wished van could see it too. how many times has taissa thought of van's favorite soda or van's favorite flavor of chips or some gossip she could tell van if they were still talking. all these little things. and how much it must have hurt (she would never admit this to anyone)

[fearlesbian]

why do you guys think taissa and van broke up? and, especially, when did they break up? did it happen when they were in the wilderness? Or after they got rescued,

And also, why did they never hear from one another? Something devastating must have happened, let’s not forget that Taissa used to pay for Natalie’s rehab bc she cared for her and thought she would be lonely, however her ex girlfriend IS lonely and she never heard from her? Did Van ever try to reach out? How did Van react when she found out that Taissa was MARRIED with a KID?

OH I MUST KNOW 😭

As much as I get that the other Gallaghers have their own shit going on and the writers wanted to stay true to them being chaotic or whatever this whole scene and the following one still annoys me. Like Ians just got out of prison and they're all absent and disinterested...when Ian sits down in the house and realise he's alone (apart from a bunch of Mexican strangers) I get so sad (and mad). But I guess that's Ian all over, the forgotten middle child who they mostly ignored whenever he dissapeared or got sick. And then I think about if Ian was coming out of prison to a free Mickey, how different his experience would have been. His welcome home party was left up to Liam to organise, the youngest in a house full of adults. No way Mickey would have left Ian to come home to a house like that, he would have been planning his return for days, weeks, months. Just like he planned that anniversary party 😭❤😍

she was never subtle and i love her so much <3

thinking about how while jackie wasn’t the best player on the team, she was probably the most enthusiastic. like she was probably the first one to learn all of their names. she probably organized team sleepovers. maybe her footwork was not the best, but she could give a great pep talk! ofc she would do your face paint for you! ofc she would help you tie your hair or get out that knot! like this is the girl who stole her mom’s valium because, oh no, what if her best friend is too afraid to fly?? handed off her necklace immediately — here shauna, good luck charm! and like, ofc she didn’t do well in the wilderness. they are wolves, the rabbit is not like them. ofc she flinches at blood, ofc she doesn’t pick up the knife, ofc she can’t hold a gun. ofc, ofc, ofc! this is the girl calming allie’s nerves before a pep rally, helping misty feel pretty for the first time, offering shauna her last bit of food. this is the girl who had so little hate in her heart that she had to steal an insult from beaches, the girl who cried over shauna not being her friend anymore, the girl who would’ve come back inside if she heard an i love you.

Mickey Milkovich is the best thing to ever happen to that boy. In this essay, I will—

[alchely]

Mickey's type of friends are either very masc lesbians or aggressively gay guys like Cole, both kinds of people that see his shields and his posturing and are able to see past them.

Ian's type of friends are straight women, so he can yap about his dream kids and white picket fence house all he wants and he gets his fill of bitchy mean gossip.
