i dont mean to victim blame but why do these vampires keep talking to daniel molloy when they know he's daniel molloy

Please consider this as a Jekyll and Hyde adaptation.

Everyone actually loves Hyde, he's the life of the party, he's suave, confident, sociable, witty, perhaps a bit of a cheeky flirt, but *liked*. Sure, he doesn't have the doctorate and job reputation of Jekyll, but he charms people into buying him drinks and is good company nonetheless. He is all the things Jekyll wishes he could be, but doesn't have the confidence to be, for fear of tarnishing his reputation, or just anxieties themselves.

The classic understanding of Hyde is just how Jekyll sees him, hating him for being better at his life than he is. Jekyll is the only one that sees him like this, being an unreliable narrator in describing him as horrendous.

Hyde has such a zeal for being alive and is just thriving in Jekyll's place. They notice that people stop asking after Jekyll, but will interrogate Jekyll about Hyde's whereabouts. Jekyll increasingly characterizes Hyde as this gruesome creature through his jealousy and contempt, all the while falling into that familiar self loathing and despair over feeling selfish for wanting his life back.

We still get a final confrontation between the two that ends with Jekyll closing the book on their tale. It is a desperate act to remove Hyde from his life and regain control over *something*. It is a desperate fight to keep chasing the drug of being alive. It is a question of who we call the victim.

Polycrew but Ody is specifically kept out (and never let in)

I’ve had this doodle in mind for literal months and I decided to finally draw it since I have plans of drawing the 4 sillies again. Mourning them like usual. But this is too silly so it gets its own post.

Once a year, Penelope orders for a painter to come and make a painting of Telemachus.

So when Odysseus finally returns, there’s a gallery of 20 paintings, showing how year after year, Telemachus grew into the young man he was now.

In some of them, Telemachus is dressed properly as a prince of Ithaca. In others, he is doing some of his daily activities (reading, playing with Argos, writing, playing the lyre), as the painter came around so often that the prince stopped caring to pose for an entire day in an uncomfortable attire.

There is one, that Odysseus finds himself staring at the longest.

It’s the twelfth painting. Where Telemachus is accompanied by his mother.

The young boy sits at her side, as she carefully teaches him to weave. It was painted in their room, as a part of the olive tree that is their bed, is also captured in the back.

Odysseus sobs, and thanks his wife for bringing the lost years in such a beautiful form to him.

Even years after his return, the King often is found in the small gallery, watching his son slowly grow with each step.

Sam Reid saying that he has to find other jobs and characters to play to avoid being perpetually possessed by Lestat and having Least tics.

I'm afraid it's too late for that mi amor!

no but really i do think a lot about how assad zaman and bally gill already knew each other for AT LEAST 6 or 7 years prior to iwtv and how much funnier that makes the whole rashid situation. because imagine you audition for a minor character role as a servant in a horror series only to be told that no, actually, you’re playing one of the most major and important characters in it. and then you get to call your friend and go hey i have a role for you and it’s going to be really funny i promise.

Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly. Only if you do that can you hope to make the reader feel every particle of what you, the writer, have known and feel compelled to share.
