'Vampirisation' has been seen as 'reverse colonisation,' and a Slavic counterpart to Christianity's the Devil, although even dead alcoholics could commonly be vampire suspects in Russia. The west-east and east-west movements (with an original pre-history in the east) in the plotting of Bram Stoker's Dracula serve as an effective emblem of the whole process.

Sebastian crashing the girls Valentine's day be like:

How it started:

How it ended:

Based on this video, this guy is literally Sebastian when he crashed the girls' Galentine's day:

But i figured since the girls all have different ethnic origins, I decided to also draw what ethnic foods they would all make :D

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Poppy - the game doesn't say where she is from, but I figured she might have learned how to make Cornish pasteries from her granny :)

🇿🇼 Natty - according to the game lore, she is originally from Matabeleland which is today, a region that belongs to Zimbabwe. An appetizer they have there is the pilchard stuffed tomatoes. It looks good so I feel like that's what Natty would make for the event.

🇪🇸 Imelda - She's from Spain and one thing I found that they serve as appetizer is a thing call Croquetas de Jamón Serrano. So she made it. Even if she's sporty, it doesn't mean she doesn't know to make dishes she likes.

🇬🇹 Iñaki - Being half Guatemalan, she made two appetizers (with help from her mom) for her two ethnic roots; she made Chuchitos, which is like a small tamale.

🇪🇨 Iñaki -Being half Ecuadorian, this is the other appetizer she made for Galentine's day: Chifles. Essentially plantain chips. but it's soooo good. I remember eating these as an appetizer growing up at family reunions or at an Ecuadorian restaurant. It's good 🤤

I honestly couldn't help but think of Sebastian when I saw that video and how that girls' night probably ended (in a modern teen AU of them). They're all gonna end the night bloated from eating so much and hitting that food coma in the Room of Requirements after game night. 😴

He might not be a born officer, but by God he was a born soldier. He was the son of a whore, bereft of God, but a God-damned soldier.

Bernard Cornwell, Sharpe's Rifles

What better way to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo than to watch a couple of episodes of Sharpe television series with Sean Bean in the titular title role of the gritty swashbucking Richard Sharpe of the 95th Rifles with your downstairs neighbour, a retired French army general and Napoleonic warfare history buff.
