The last version of my guide is 2 years old, and doesn't account for some new features, new competition, and some rebrands, so once again;

Here's a purchase guide for when RPG Maker is on sale, as well as the Visual Novel makers available.

Listen, sometimes a ship is less about wanting them to kiss or have sex or whatever, and more about needing them to be so endlessly intertwined and connected to the point where they might as well be one creature.

I'm slowly realising that my parents probably don't intend to financially contribute to my wedding and it's heartbreaking in a way I didn't expect

New aesthetic: Arctic hares when they're coat is only half done shedding and they look a little fucked up

social media has got twenty year old women thinking they have to be a "clean girl" at university with a morning routine and face masks and expensive water bottles and a 9pm bedtime. I am begging the world to let young women go through a crucial developmental stage of being disgusting messy little rats. for feminism.

who in MSF/DD is most likely to let a snake (animal) bite their dick

It would've been V because he's aware of the risks and know they have all the anti venoms on hand and a team in case something goes wrong, plus he has a good pain tolerance... but i dont think he would let a snake anywhere near him after what happened so maybe no. I think BB would bc he's built different, he just wants to know what it would be like to get bit by one and he also has a really good pain tolerance. Ocelot wouldn't unless there was something in it for him, like if you told him bb is gonna make out with him sloppy style if he did then he would. kaz wouldnt, i think the only way you could get him to do it is if you offered him a million dollars. huey also wouldnt and would throw a mug at your head. i think quiet might after some convincing, or not, she might just do it to assert dominance and honestly what a queen

One perk of having a car is that if you’re an insane person you can basically use your vehicle as free advertising for what’s wrong with you and drive around town with the message you want to spread painted all over it

I... I don't think the patient's weight got entered correctly. Just a hunch

i think i've mentioned it before in passing but it still fucks me up how Orlok is a physical manifestation of every "wrong and sinful" desire that Ellen tries to repress, as well as the panic that is associated with them.

the first sexual urges of her puberty (he claims her "ever-eternally"). the desire to dominate her husband (he dominates Thomas at the castle, demanding the subservience she never could). her queerness (he drinks from Anna, long and deep, and destroys Harding's family). the desperate longing for companionship, regardless of how dark and abnormal she believes herself to be (he answers her call from miles away, crosses an ocean for her, wants her, wants her, wants her - but she cannot imagine being wanted without repercussions, and so he brings the plague with him, a punishment for the sin of receiving what she craves).

Ellen is a mess of crushing guilt. she only ever sees ugliness in herself and i think it's so compelling to see her being desired above all else - not despite, but because of that ugliness, y'know?..

[danceofchaos]

Nosferatu (2024) is unquestionably a multifaceted work, but what I personally consider to be the unifying idea behind its facets is that, for Ellen, Orlok represents validation.

Her fears are dismissed and called childish?.. He's a nightmarish manifestation of them.

She is consistently disrespected by everyone around her?.. He considers her his only equal. She never uses his title, it's permitted.

She is told to fix herself, misunderstood, and always isolated?.. He knows all the darkest parts of her and is delighted by them. He wants her just as she is, so much that he will lie, kill, and cross the ocean to find her.

The scene in their death/wedding bed is a direct parallel to the scene of her waking in that bed at the beginning of the film. She complains to Thomas that the "honeymoon is yet too short" and tries to pull him down with a kiss - however, he is worried about being late for work, and so he extricates himself and leaves. Cut forward to her sharing the same bed with Orlok, similarly early in the morning; he is startled by cock-crow and begins to rise, but she guides his head back down - and, even though he knows that he will die, he stays. He is her sexual and emotional desire, realized.

Given that there is a plethora of emotions Ellen is forced to suppress on daily basis, there is no singular correct interpretation of her relationship with Orlok. To erase any one of them is to render it shallower than it actually is; but there is no doubt as to why their attachment is mutual. To each, the other is something they’ve never had before.
