I'm using Dracula spoilers as my spoiler tag. This blog is full of untagged spoilers since I was part of Dracula daily last year. So new followers continue at your own risk!

Aside from the jokes about the begging for a kitten, this entry is really Seward again being at a new low and Renfield showing the consequences of said low. Neither of them are in the right mind right now to at least continue a semblance of a treatment, which is Jack's fault for continuously pushing doctor - patient separation.

Again, Seward encourages Renfield's madness and his experiments despite him knowing how it would end for the animals, and only refused Renfield's request for a kitten because Seward wanted to see how he would react. Not caring about how this situation is quickly spiraling into unethical treatment since Seward cares more for his own forming theory about his view on Renfield than Renfield's actual needs as his patient. And with this pushing, and pulling Renfield becomes more volatile to the detriment of his mental health, which will delay more his healing process, and it will keep him vulnerable under Seward's control.

#the whole thing is the reducing of a human being to a personal distraction and potential gold star for Seward to pin to himself#'Look what my maniac did! Isn't he so impressive! Aren't I for pulling more threads out of his sanity!' (tags by see-arcane)

Happy Do Not Give Renfield A Cat Day

[spikedru]

girl vampires are so cool we need more girl vampires in general

[spikedru]

and like. girl vampires who are given the same kind of depth as male vampires of reconciling their own monstrous desires with how human they still are or not. and not like. vapid sexy temptresses or whatever. they have their time and place but i want a girl vampire desperately gripping the sink looking into the mirror just to see what isnt there anymore

Something I absolutely love is not caving into the pressure of "you HAVE to watch popular gay show the writing is actually competent and they won't ruin it this time" and being like "hmmm I don't know... I watched popular gay show before and it turned bad..." only to much later get your door knocked on and it's your mutuals crestfallen and you get to be like "let me guess. it turned bad."

Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.

Let's finally solve this great question now with Seward's podcast on air.

Should Renfield get a kitten, a little kitten to feed?

Yes of course! 😀😙

NO! Fuck no! 💀❌

What if we give R. M. Renfield a bird-eating spider? Would that work or would it just get confusing?

Renfield: Ah yes, the faultless logic of the food chain shall not fail me. Insect devoured by spider, spider by bird, bird by cat, and on and on up the route until the great sum of consumed life is at its zenith and primed to feed me in turn--

Goliath birdeater spider, slurping down birds, rodents, and any other meaty little mammal it can: ::::)

Renfield: the fuck

[armandyke]

It's just crazy how from an actual Armand perspective his actions make sense because of course he's turning all this on Louis, the one person who never had any power to truly hurt him, but then Rolin Jones will stand up and look you dead in the eyes and say "yeah we just felt like Louis needed to be genuinely punished for his treatment of Armand" and I have no idea what the fuck to do with that

[armandyke]

I'll be like well yes because Armand was attempting to recreate the dynamic of marimand with Louis in a way that never put him in harms way, and now that all those emotions are crashing down on him he's blaming it all on the Fake Marius because Real Marius still has the power to hurt him! and then Rolin Jones will go "No. Louis deserved what happened to him" and suddenly all I can think about is whether we need to bring back the guillotine

At a certain point during watching a bunch of Dracula adaptations, you ask yourself: Is it me? Am I crazy? Did I miss the subtext? Am I bad at reading Dracula? Am I the world's greatest fraud?

And then you go back and reread some sections and feel immense relief.
