My IWTV Monster High opinions

. Armand would have very strong opinions about all the changes (both good & bad) throughout the generations & would passionately bully educate the youth online on why they're wrong

. He would collect his favourite dolls (spending a lot of time fixing the unfoccused eyes & glue seepage issues on the older models)

. Armand's favourite characters are -

1. Gholia - She's the president of the comic book club + an inventor & Armand is a nerd

2. Victor - Dude's an orphan with zero friends, who does crazy unauthorised experiments, you can't tell me Armand wouldn't stan him

3. Frankie - Litrually made up from the torn up parts of different long dead people, which I could definitely see working as a metaphor for Armand/Arun/Amedao

4. Rebbeca Steam - Was made by a man she misses terribly, + he just loves her esthetic/character design (especially her bronze skin, googles & jet boots)

5. Elle Eedee - Likes that she's a DJ & a street artist + just loves the idea of anything technologic being alive (hate to say it but if it weren't for Daniel, Armand would 1000% be addicted to everything AI)

. Armand assumes Lestat would claim kinship with Cleo, but belives if she was real she'd curse him with one of her ancient artifacts (& he may or may not have posted a fanfic with that very plot to AO3 leading to a year long argument between him & Lestat that Daniel & Louis only barely managed to stop from going to court)

. However I think Lestat (if he knew/cared about MH at all) would probably actually view himself more like Kieran, after he reformed & started daiting Spelldon Claudronello (& yes its because he'd remind him of Louis 🥰) but would also have an appreciation for Kitty Nior & Operetta because they're both musical divas (& one of them has psychic powers & a southern accent which we know he's fond of lol)

. I belive Armand would view Louie as a mix between Draculaura & Twyla due to he's beauty & popularity (*cough* Vampire Helen of Troy *cough*) as well as he's shy and intellectual nature and the shared issues around consuming what is natural for both to survive

. Daniel (jealous of the level of thought Armand has put into this when it comes to his ex-husband) asks he's maker which character he thinks Daniel would be and genuinely gets offended when Armand admits that he can't decide on one yet (ok so you caught me, this is only partly about creating drama, I genuinely can't seem to think of a MH character that fits Daniel so please help me out in the comments), Armand however defends himself by explaining that the Daniel of the past might remind him of a mix between Keith, Claude & Duce (none of which Daniel knows as he only memories Armand's favourite characters via how they look so he knows which ones to buy him online), in his twilight years his beloved has way too much bite & brains for Armand to feel it appropriate to compare him to such dunces (this, thankfully, does manages to ease a little of Daniel's insecurity lol)

. If asked Louie, at first, would be incredulous & ask why he would give a damn about an animated children's show only to later decide that if everyone was going to continue obsessing over this then he would at least make sure to ride for his fellow New Orleans photographer, Miss Honey Swamp

. Sybelle is fond of Scarha Screams - for her use of telepathy, Twyla Boogeyman for the austistic representation & Operetta because of her love of music

. Benji is fond of Spectra Vonderghiest - for the fact that she's confident & sneaky (without being mean) & jokes that he low-key got the idea for his radio show from her running a gossip blog

. I think Madeline would have liked Wydowna Spider - I mean beautiful, productive, red head with a talent for sewing? That's Madeline down to a T.

. I'm pretty sure we can all agree that Claudia would 100% have stanned the diva that is OG Clawdeen, no explanation needed (she would also low-key view Louis a bit like Claude & lament he's type being dramatic cry babies lol)

. They would all hate Gil (Idk if he's cool in G3, but OG him needed to fuck all the way off)

I don't think children should be turned into vampires but because they just haven't tried a whole variety of human food. Like imagine going your entire eternal life without knowing what pho tastes like because your parents just never got you that. Never drank a little aam panna. And not even food from cultures foreign to you just like. Never tasted butterscotch icecream. Different pickels. Someone got turned into a vampire and never ate Lotus root in anything. Like let that beast out in the world to eat varied food and expand their palate before trapping them in a blood only diet.

Ok. Armand and Benji's first meeting but it's online and Armand gets bullied by Benji over being shit at a game and he has beef with this 8 year old
