what gets me about every instance of clubbing/partying discourse on here is the Jughead complex people bring to it. Oh I'm weird I'm a weirdo of course I've never been to a party or the club only cool normal people have access to those things. Which is just completely false the biggest freaks I know are partying harder than anyone you just have to pluck up the courage to go the first time and then you'll see there's nothing special about these spaces and nobody at a party when you're an adult is going to care if you're socially awkward
fundamentally armand is a guy whose first answer to every problem is well what if we murdered them about it. this has been true of him since long before he was a vampire. it's the 15th century upbringing I think. fling getting too intense? got kidnapped? coven out of control? fling got too intense: this time with daughter? ex boyfriend comes back? fledglings existing in your vicinity? first vampire ever wakes up? aliens exist? Have We Tried Killing It
