Women besting men in any way in TVC - non-exhaustive book quote compilation

[meerawrites]

Hey guys! I have never done this in this way before, but, some months back I submitted a historical fiction horror/true crime Marquis de Sade/Angela Carter/Octavia Butler/Anne Rice adjacent tonall short story in which the fictional (lesbian/sapphic) Lizzie Andrew Bordon, I cannot l say excuses outright she knows murder is still a horrifying thing to do cause the way evil of minimizing other peoples lives and humanity even your overbearing and abusive father figure, but does rationalize and attempt a justification not morally that is perspective and meta physically impossible, but legally (by 1860 American legal standards) and historiographic about how ones perspective on *evil women says more about you, or us as a society than the women in question.

A riveting collection of short stories about the crime and house that has fascinated America for over a century

*Juliette in Juliette, or: vice rewarded is a bisexual icon who has a moral compass, she just also happens to be the original textual 18th century victim of villain by necessity not choice, and unreliable narrator to everyone including herself, because, the alternative is death. Also I know it is highly unlikely that Lizzie did it in this case. But, that is far less interesting and do you have an issue with women who are self aware and have hobbies?

I haven't seen Nosferatu (2024) yet... (I caught Covid over winter break and it messed with my plans), but, things in Nosferatu (2024) that you noticed/things to look for (as an ovetrhinker about vampire allegories) <- with minimal spoilers, I have read Dracula (1897) multiple times and seen the proceeding Nosferatu movies?

Its been a little over a week so its not super fresh in my mind but:

There is a scene with the Romani that is a lot more classically folklore oriented that I really enjoyed

Bite location. Biting over the heart as opposed to the neck or the wrist

Emphasis of Orlok as Death or as a dead being. Repeated with his insistence that Ellen doesn't "belong to the living"

Female hysteria, concern about female desire, etc

Vampirism as a hunger and as obsession

Association with dogs/wolves and rats (no bats that I recall)

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your blog. That is all. Have a great timezone. <3

I am glad that this was only here a couple of days. I don't check this blog that much currently, and most of the content on it for the past few months have been things that have been sitting in the queue or drafts. I wish so much that I could maintain it again. Effing American Capitalism and Economy got me in a misery cycle. Thank you so much for a little bit of joy!!

Anne/Ann headcanons, mayhaps? / violetyorkshirelady

⚢ Thank you so much for this ask! I always love to talk about my sweet beloved Ann(e)s whom I miss and cherish so very much ;A; <;3

I think my favourite headcanons must be the ones that concern their day-to-day married life; the time they spend together; their shared little gestures; and most importantly the many things they do to improve each other's existence.

I live for them grooming and pampering each other. I am of the firm and unshakeable opinion that Anne frequently washes, combs and braids Ann's hair, and that Ann never wastes an opportunity to rub some nicely scented lotion into the work-roughened skin of Anne's hands in the evening.

Just as Anne is known to massage the anxiety knots out of Ann's poor shoulders, Ann has developed a special sense for deciphering the keenly-hidden failings of Anne's health. She always knows when Anne's knees are plagued by another arthritic flare, no matter how stubbornly Anne tries to conceal her discomfort. It's why Ann keeps knitting her fluffy knee pads to help against the hardships of those long, draughty winters at Shibden.

Ann has made herself perfectly, comfortably at home on Anne's lap and she occupies that proudly won space of hers whenever they're alone in the room together.

Anne keeps a close eye on Ann's physical and emotional health. She often tries to keep her busy by involving her in personal projects and shared ventures. And she always, always finds a way to make Ann eat, even on the days when she'd prefer to go hungry. (No self-punishing behaviour on Anne's watch!)

Anne's hands are always cool, Ann's hands are always warm. Anne also sticks her icy feet against Ann's shins when they're in bed together, and Ann never fails to gasp about it. But that's all right, because ...

Ann, in turn, drives Anne absolutely bonkers with her snoring. I love headcanons that are drawn from the historical records of their married life, and it never fails to crack me up that little Ann Walker had such an obnoxious snore that Anne frequently fled their bedroom to sleep in ever more ridiculous locations out of sheer desperation. (But she always returns to her wife's side in the wee hours of the morning, because she loves her.)

Now you must tell me some of your headcanons! <3
