I know the locked tomb is bible fanfic, but i still enjoy how religious the fanart gets.

Like every fanart is like...what if everyone had a halo.

(Not to mention that Cam always looks like Joan of arc)

This is why no matter what, Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula and every tv show and musical out there will never be hated close to enough actually

Sure, you know how to self-flagellate, but do you know how to apologize? Saying "I'm a stupid idiot" is not the same thing as saying "I did something wrong."

Taigen when he finds out Mizu is a woman

- the bone people, Keri Hulme

This book was published in 1984

We have this perception that David Jay invented asexuality in 2001 and that aromanticism came even later, but aros and aces (and aroaces) have always existed and will always exist and i think this book proves it.

Im not sure if Keri Hulme had the words to describe herself as aroace at this time (she certainly did later), but regardless this is definitely a description of aroace-ness.

*Nothing in Bram Stoker's research notes for Dracula indicates that the Count was based off of Vlad Dracula. In fact, nothing indicates that Stoker was aware of Vlad Dracula. Stoker originally planned to call his antagonist "Count Wampyr" before he noted that the Romanian word "dracula" meant "devil." (In Vlad Dracula's time, it meant "son of the dragon," but the meaning had since evolved.)

The current scholarly consensus is that Sir Henry Irving was the chief inspiration for Count Dracula. However, in the time before Stoker's notes were available, people understandably assumed that the fictional Romanian nobleman named Dracula who fought the Turks was based on the real Romanian nobleman named Dracula who fought the Turks. These days, it's common pop culture knowledge that "Dracula is Vlad the Impaler" and so much media portrays them as the same man that he kind of is Vlad the Impaler, no matter Stoker's intentions.
