Dimension 20: City Council of Darkness - “A Fraternal Order and an Author of Horror”

One of my favorite things is modern adaptations that leave people with the same careers they had in the original material, because unless you’re a cop or a doctor that practically never happens.

Irene Adler’s an opera singer. We still have those! They don’t have the same subtext exactly, but nothing is going to because we aren’t the Victorians. She could continue to be an opera singer. I have never seen this happen.

Jonathan Harker can still be in real estate. That’s a job people have. A modern story that still involves Dracula contacting his firm to help him purchase property sounds amazing actually.

A modern adaptation of Dracula where you keep seeing Jonathan Harker’s face on bus stop bench ads for his realtor office.

I was about to joke about Quincey Morris still being a cowboy, but then it occurred to me that he’s not actually a cowboy in the source material, is he? He’s the wealthy heir of a Texas ranch-owning family who just acts like an Old West cowboy. If anything, that’s even more plausible today than it was in 1897.

let’s see dracula shrug off getting hit with one of these country cosplay motherfuckers

No, cause this is funnier and always needs to be reblogged with the full context.

On that note, I don’t think we should ever shame the youth for not knowing things. However, there is a serious problem with how self-congratulatory the lack of research before making an observation is these days.

first few months of alectopause: damn can't wait until atn comes out

2023 alectopause: you know it's ok we can wait. i got some fics to write

2024 alectopause: here is 30,000 words on how john's characterization as emperor and lyctorhood interplays with colonialism, imperialism, sexual assault, and misogyny, featuring a full bibliography, a reading list, and peer reviewed by three mutuals

2025 alectopause: gideon would not fucking say that

2026 alectopause: what is everyone's blood pressure headcanons for the characters. i think harrow is orthostatic and gets a regular 90/50

[haleyusesherwords]

Nancy Danderhoof uncovering a half trillion dollar white collar crime in Hong Kong for the Omaha Sunday Scoop is one end of the spectrum of the Intrepid Heroes always heightening a bit for comedic purposes

The opposite end of that spectrum is Gilear

absolutely incomprehensible screenshot

[urgunnamissmebymytaco]

Anna using 'Paul Robalino' as a non-famous person name to his FACE was so sick, twisted, and hilarious. I'm still laughing about it 10 minutes later.

i love game changer because the most incomprehensible bits will come outta there and i just know im NEVER going to be able to explain “Sepia tone. I’m gonna kill him so much. Al Pacino” to ANYONE

i mean i KNEW people were gonna miss the point when the phm movie came out and start shipping stratt x grace but it doesn’t mean it’s not disappointing to see in 2026 that we’re still incapable of seeing a woman and a man make eye contact as equals without reading it as romantic
