So I saw this post about how in the books, Dracula is actually an old man and I always imagined Dracula looked like older Christopher Lee, who played him while he was a kid. While looking him up I accidentally discovered that Christopher Lee was the coolest person in the universe and there is a non-zero chance he was actually Dracula in real life
Tumblr media
Sir Christopher Frank Carandini Lee CBE CStJ (May 27th 1922 - June 7th 2015), Sir because he was knighted in 2009 for his charity and his contributions to cinema
So first of all, I saw that he actually knew 8 LANGUAGES (English, Spanish, French, Swedish, Italian, German, Russian and Greek) and was also a staggering 6 feet 5 inches in height. Born in Belgravia in London, one of the most Dracula sounding places I’ve ever heard of, here’s some insane facts about him
•His father, Lieutenant Colonel Geoffrey Trollope Lee of the 60th King's Royal Rifle Corps, fought in the Boer War and World War 1
•His mother, Countess Estelle Marie (née Carandini di Sarzano) was an Edwardian beauty who was painted by Sir John Lavery, Oswald Birley, and Olive Snell, and sculpted by Clare Sheridan
•Lee's maternal great-grandfather, Jerome Carandini, the Marquis of Sarzano, was an Italian political refugee
•Jerome’s wife was English-born opera singer Marie Carandini (née Burgess), meaning that Lee is also related to famous opera singer Rosina Palmer
•His parents would divorce when he was four and his mother would marry Harcourt George St-Croix Rose, banker and uncle of Ian Fleming, making the author of the James Bond books Lee’s step cousin. Fleming would then offer him two roles as the antagonist in the film adaptations of his books, though he was only able to land the antagonist role in The Man With the Golden Gun. It’s believed his role in the film is significantly better and more complex than his book counterpart, played as “a dark side of Bond”
•His family would move and they lived next door to famous silent film actor Eric Maturin
•One night, before he was even 9 years old, he was introduced to Prince Yusupov and Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich, THE ASSASSINS OF GRIGORI RASPUTIN, WHOM LEE WOULD GO ON TO PLAY MANY YEARS LATER
•Lee applied for a scholarship to Eton, where his interview was in the presence of the ghost story author M.R. James, who is considered one of the best English language ghost story writers in history and who widely influenced modern horror
•He only missed by King’s Scholar by one place by being bad at math, one of the only flaws God gave him
•Due to lack of working opportunities, Lee was sent to the French Riviera and stayed with his sister and her friends while she was on holiday, and on the way there he stopped briefly in Paris with journalist Webb Miller, a friend of his step father. Webb Miller was an American journalist and war correspondent and was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the execution of the French serial killer Henri Désiré Landru, also known as BLUEBEARD. He also helped turn world opinion against British colonial rule of India
•While staying with Miller he witnessed Eugen Weidmann’s execution by guillotine, the last public execution ever performed in France
•Arriving in Menton, Lee stayed with the Russian Mazirov family, living among exiled princely families
•When World War 2 began, Lee volunteered to fight for the Finnish Army against the Soviet Union in the Winter War, and a year later, Lee would join the Home Guard. After his father died, he would join the Royal Air Force and was an intelligence officer and leading aircraft man and would later retire as a flight lieutenant in 1946
•While spending some time on leave in Naples, Lee climbed Mount Vesuvius, which erupted only three days later
•After nearly dying in an assault on Monte Cassino, Lee was able to visit Rome where he met his mother’s cousin Nicolò Carandini, who had fought in the Italian Resistance Movement. Nicolò would later go on to be the Italian Ambassador to Britain. Nicolò was actually the one to convince Lee to become an actor in the first place
•Oh yeah Christopher Lee was seconded to the Central Registry of War Criminals and Security Suspects where he was tasked with HELPING TRACK DOWN NAZI WAR CRIMINALS
•Lee’s stepfather served as a captain in the Intelligence Corps
•He was actually told he was too tall to be an actor, though that would honestly help him considering one of his first roles was as The Creature in The Curse of Frankenstein
•He was cast in Captain Horatio Hornblower R.N (1951) as a Spanish captain due to not only his fluency in Spanish but also he knew how to fence!
•Lee’s portrayal of Dracula had a crucial aspect of it which Bela Lugosi’s didn’t have: sexuality, a prime aspect of the original novels.
•While being trapped into playing Dracula under Hammer Film Productions, Lee actually hated the script so much that he would try his best to sneak actual lines from the original novel into the script
•Ironically, he was rejected from playing in The Longest Day because “he didn’t look like a military man”
•Christopher Lee was friends with author Dennis Wheatley, who “was responsible for bringing the occult into him”. He would go on to play in two film adaptations of his novels
•His biggest regret in his career is not taking the role of Sam Loomis from Halloween when offered to him
•Christopher Lee was the only person involved with the Lord of the Rings movies to have actually met J.R.R Tolkien
•When playing Count Dooku, he actually did most of the swordsmanship himself
•Christopher Lee was the second oldest living performer to enter the Billboard Top 100 charts with the song “Jingle Hell” at 91 years old. After media attention, he would get No. 18, and Lee became the oldest person to ever hit the Billboard Top 20 chart
I really am leaving some stuff out here and I may go on

Biden ‘quietly’ gives massive bombs to Israel — even as establishment voices say, Stop the genocide
The devastating news from Washington this week was that in spite of lip service against Israel’s war on the people of Gaza, the Biden administration “quietly” approved the transfer of more massive bombs to Israel.
Biden is sending along more than 2000 one-ton bombs and 500-pound bombs, the Washington Post reported (per Common Dreams).
“This is cowardly,” Yousef Munayyer wrote. “If you are going to be full backers of genocide, own it. We see you and history sees you as well.”
“This is obscene,” Bernie Sanders wrote. “We must end our complicity: No more bombs to Israel. The U.S. cannot beg Netanyahu to stop bombing civilians one day and the next send him thousands more 2,000 lb. bombs that can level entire city blocks.”
We can only imagine how horrifying such armaments are here in the West. Gazans don’t have to imagine. These instruments of annihilation have generated a neverending nightmare. Even the Washington Post says these bombs “are almost never used any more by Western militaries in densely populated locations due to the risk of civilian casualties.” But Israel has used them extensively.
Which is why more than 31,000 Palestinians have been killed, the vast majority women and children. Israel justifies the slaughter of civilians by arguing that a majority of Palestinians approve of Hamas’s attack of last October. So, collective punishment is policy.
At least Biden’s hypocrisy is being reported in the Washington Post. And we are seeing a broad movement in progressive circles to end Israel’s immunity to international law.
Harvard Law School’s student government voted for the university to divest from Israel. The global activist network Avaaz has got half a million signatures calling for a cutoff of U.S. aid to Israel.
America is Israel’s biggest arms dealer. You are giving American weapons to a government that is blocking life-saving aid and violating international law. This will only stop when you demand it stops.“
Public opinion is also horrified. A Gallup poll finds that 55 percent of Americans oppose Israel’s months-long military campaign (while 36 percent approve). “A mere 18% of Democratic voters approve of Israel’s effort.” And 75 percent disapprove.
Tumblr media
Gallup poll published March 27 shows that American Democrats’ support for Israeli actions is plummeting over three months.
Biden is not only defying his base. The liberal political establishment has now turned against Israel’s war. The head of the Democratic party think tank, the Center for American Progress, called for a cutoff of aid.
The United States, by its own imposed standards, cannot heedlessly deliver offensive weapons as the Israeli government continues to bombard and starve innocents on a mass scale. These actions have nothing to do with self defense; they are clearly intended as collective punishment and are resulting in the complete devastation of Palestinians as a people.
The former top State Department human rights officer told NPR that it is time to apply the same rules to Israel as other countries. Charles Blaha:
[T]he State Department has said publicly that the same policy applies to Israel as apply to every other country. In practice, Israel gets special treatment…. You may recall the Biden administration suspended items that could be used in offensive air-to-ground operations for Saudi Arabia because they were causing civilian casualties. Those civilian casualties are nowhere near the civilian casualties that Israeli air-to-ground operations have caused so far. Yet unconditional transfers of air-to-ground munitions continue.
Joe Rogan called it “genocide” and a “holocaust” this week. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Israel was going too far. Atlantic Editor Jeffrey Goldberg, trying to run from his own past, ran a piece saying, “U.S. Support for Israel’s War Has Become Indefensible.”
And at the Stimson Center this week, when Barbara Slavin said it’s not genocide because it’s not equivalent to the Hutus and the Tutsis in Rwanda or the Nazis killing 6 million Jews, Lara Friedman of the Foundation for Middle East Peace shot down that defense.
The definition of genocide under international law does not require it to meet that bar… It does not have to rise to, Trying to kill every member of a race in the world [to be a genocide. The idea that] ‘it can’t be genocide if it doesn’t kill everybody.’ That isn’t what it means under international law.
So the genocide is having consequences, even in the cowardly seat of empire.

Little queer story:
It's one of the few memories I'm very fond of, so there is that :)
Between the ages of 10-14 you can apply for a camp in my village. In German it's called "Zeltlager" and it's an annual event that lasts for 10 days.
However, in some cases, when for example your parents both work at the camp, you can come with sooner. I've known only one of those kids and he was 8 in my first year (I was obviously 10).
This is my Buddyfriend Christian. That's the name I called him during that time based on a Coldmirror Joke (Coldmirror is a German youtuber, known for her satire videos, especially in regards to the HP universe). His name isn't actually Christian but that's precisely why I'm using it.
He kept following me around the entire time on that trip and I thought him a very good friend because people never really sought me out at that time. Even my ex-bff kept abandoning me (she had not applied that year). Of course, we'd receive a lot of comments, like: he's obviously into you, and stuff like that. I think that's why he later distanced himself from me, or his first girlfriend made him do it. The comments made me really insecure but I wouldn't have been mad had he had a crush on me. I mean, we were eight and ten. I just hoped he hung around because we clicked, and not because he found me atrractive (again, never understood the part of relationships where appearance matter, so... I didn't want it to be the reason at that time either.)
I did think it was weird that he was so attached to me but I thought he was lonely until the possibility was brought to my attention. He was very well liked by everyone around him, it was just that he was younger than most. I thought perhaps he hung around because neither of us really fit in, although for different reasons.
As you may know, today I identify as aro/ace (spectrum) and am in a qpr with a female friend.
Today, Christian is friends with my older brother. They reconnected through work and my brother was one of the first people he came out to as gay.
Now, here is the thing. I think we really just did the 'queers recognise each other' thing at the time without noticing.
And I had always been really open about the idea of being queer. Which, in a homophobic village like mine used to be during my growing up, and the type of children I grew up around, is not necessarily a given. But I believe that I was still, somehow, accidentally, raised that way.
My ex-bff had once explained to me that every girl has a gay phase, as her parents explained to her, and so I kept waiting for that phase without it every really materializing (despite my relationship status, I've never thought myself attracted to girls. Or guys. Or- you know what I'm getting at.) But it did seem completely normal to me. If everyone had this phase- and no one specified how long that phase would last, why would I make it a big deal, right? I think I was 7 when I came to that conclusion. I also came to the conclusion that public displays of affection are socially not accepted because my brothers did react rather disgusted when she kissed me.
I was 14 when I had my first fallout with a couple of friends who were rudely talking about a guy from parallel class who was reading yaoi mangas. My thought process at the time was: why do YOU care? He has done nothing to deserve this! He may be reading something smutty but have you READ mangas? (My first manga experience was vampire knight and I stopped when they started with the incest, so who was I to judge, amiright?)
when I turned 16, and was a little more knowledgable about LGBT+ topics because I did some research, one of those friends outed herself as lesbian. I had already known because I wasn't the first person she'd told and my brother had overheard her coming out. It was actually why I DID do research. I wanted to know how I could be there for her. So, I scolded my brother (same from above btw) for telling me because I wanted her to tell me herself. (When she did, I confessed that I didn't know what I was myself, which in hindsight was a bit disrespectful but I didn't want her to feel like she was alone. I didn't know better but it's also a very striking parallel to Alice Oseman's Loveless because that was my exact line! Jesus, you have no idea how often I had to stop reading that book because of how emotional I got and how often I cried! Ahem...)
Back to Christian. I think, maybe, deep down, he sensed that we were somewhat alike. I'm usually very distant with strangers, so to have had someone I clicked with like that without feeling afraid is one of my fondest memories and my fondest friendships of the past. (Especially because that was shortly before my great depression phase where I believed that everyone hated me.)
Should you ever read this, my buddyfriend Christian, you're awesome. It's sad that we grew apart and have no reason to really reconnect, but I do miss u sometimes. And I hope you and your boyfriend are well. I wish I could have been there for you during your coming out. But I'm glad you didn't have to experience me during puberty. I sucked.

Hey there! I might be applying for a PhD program in Germany next year and I was wondering if there was anything about Germany that's normal for natives but foreigners are confused about that you'd like to share? For instance, I was once told virtually nothing in Germany opens on Sundays, things like that <3
that's correct yeah, definitely get your shopping done BEFORE sundays and official holidays, because all stores will be closed. that includes places like pharmacies and doctor's offices! if you have a medical emergency on a weekend it's basically like having one in the middle of the night, so you'll have to find your local emergency numbers to call. the only places that ARE open on sundays/holidays are gas stations and some kiosks, so if you just need drinks and/or snacks, you're fine.
every bottle or can you buy that has this symbol on it:
Tumblr media
you can return at stores with Pfandautomaten. theyre machines in grocery stores that you can feed your bottles/cans into, and they print a receipt that you hand over at the register, and youll get a little bit of money back. depending on what it was, it can be like 25 ct per can or something. its money you already paid when you bought it, so you dont get free money or anything, but its nice. also my non-german spouse just loves standing in front of those machines and watching.
our infrastructure is pretty bad in comparison to, like, most other industrialized places lol. its highly unlikely that there will be public wifi where you are, so get set up with a sim card asap. reception/data might still be pretty bad if youre not in a big city. the plus side of how backwards we still are about many things is that germans still looove cash. there will be places that do not take cards. usually its smaller places like bakeries or a farmers market stand. but it will happen
do go to a bakery whenever you can. you can get bread rolls for 30 cents and entire loaves for 3 bucks. theyre good!
there will be no a/c unless youre in a store or in a place with properly funded trains/trams. no residential buildings have a/c. i will be very surprised if your university does
if youre moving into any sort of student housing deal you might not have to deal with this, but if you're going to rent an apartment here, chances are it won't have a kitchen, and potentially it won't have flooring either. you have to get that yourself. it then ~belongs to you~ and you can take it with you when you move again, or try to sell it to the next tenant, and apparently people think that thats a good way to do this? i dunno lol. you can get kitchens at ikea. i'm sorry.
i'm not entirely sure where you're from, but if you don't get cold winters there then it might be worth to read up generally on how to dress for central european winters. you're not going to get fully snowed in unless you're moving all the way south to the alps, but we get snow sludge pretty much everywhere, and temperatures will drop to around 0° celsius.
april and may will feel crazy. you'll get 27°c one day and a thunderstorm will cool things down to 10° the next day.
most people speak english! we learn it in school. some will be apprehensive to do it, many will have a thick accent. but you will probably get through to people if your german isn't solid enough yet.
we have a large turkish population! try their food, go to their supermarkets, it's worth it!
good luck!! i will rb this if i think of anything else <3

hey! i just finished my grade 12 exams and was looking into studying in germany. i was just curious what exactly you’re doing right now?
hi! so I have been waiting for someone to ask me this omg!!! currently cracking my knuckles opening up my laptop to answer this one
curriculum
so! essentially the main thing here is whether your high-school diploma is enough for university study, i.e: is it qualified as a Hochschulzugangsberechtigung, HZB. I did the International Baccalaureate diploma, and based on the curriculum (and subjects chosen) you have studied, the route will be different for you. the German curriculum is of course best for studying there, but the IGCSE one is solid too. I am not sure for others, I live in kenya, so the main education systems are the Kenyan one, IB, and the Cambridge IGCSE one. best websites to use to figure out how to get there are as follow. DAAD is based on anabin, but anabin is from the culture ministers conference (the OG guys of deciding this study)
DAAD:
https://www.daad.de/en/studying-in-germany/requirements/admission-database/
anabin:
https://anabin.kmk.org/no_cache/filter/schulabschluesse-mit-hochschulzugang.html#land_gewaehlt
the main categories are:
a. diploma valid in both country of education + Germany
b. diploma valid in only country of education, not germany
c. diploma not valid
field of study
based on your choice for your field, and also bachelors, masters or phd, all play a role. stem courses will generally not be taught in English, and you will just have to know German, if you want to study stem. unless you can find a specific international university, there are almost no courses (I could not find even one pure physics course in English) for stem in English. if there are, you will probably compromise on quality of education.
humanities courses are taught in English, so if you go into literature, business, psychology, economics, hotel management, etc. there are plenty of courses at very very good universities.
public universities are usually the best in Germany, have relatively low tuition (recently introduced in some uni's for international students) and are extremely high in quality.
what I am doing rn
my diploma went into category b, above. despite getting above average IB points, being a student with tons of extracurriculars, the subjects I took, along with the general regard of the IB diploma in Germany resulted in my situation.
I have to do a studienkolleg (a foundation course for international students). in order to apply for a stem oriented course, as I am going into physics (women in stem!!), I need a studienkolleg, and in order to go into the studienkolleg, I need B2 German.
I have essentially taken a year off (may 2023 - sept 2024) to figure out how I am getting there. I started German in September 2024, after figuring out I need to know it + I need a foundation. everyone online has said you can't learn a foreign language in a year - do not listen to them, it is entirely possible, difficult, but honestly doable.
so yeah! ask if you have any other questions. despite all this, the reason I want to study there is quality of education in relation to tuition, the job market, the benefits for international students, and the quality of life.

Hi! Hope you’re doing great!
I love all of your advice :), it’s so helpful.
I’m currently in college and I would love to work for the EU or UN one day (fingers crossed?). How could I be in spaces that’ll lead me there - even though I’m a student? And how could I prepare for those spaces and pioneering for advocacy for the “voiceless?”
Thanks so much!
Hi love! Thank you so much.
I actually know a couple of women who interned/worked for the UN! So, from what I know, here are some important skills and experiences you should consider acquiring to work at these types of organizations:
Become as fluent in English and French as possible. Bonus points for additional languages including German, Spanish, Italian, etc.
Study and focus on gaining internship/volunteer experience in public policy, international relationships, political science, sustainable development, nonprofit management, pre-law/environmental science, and ethics
Consider applying for a volunteer, internship, or study abroad opportunity with the UN (I don't know anything about working with the EU, but that sounds so cool!)
Intern/volunteer with an NGO or another international nonprofit (Women for Women is a great organization!)
Visit or attend events at local international embassies
Volunteer, intern, or work in some capacity for events hosted by influential international figures (foreign ambassadors, global human rights activists, etc. – I met one of these women at a Fashion Week event a few years ago, so think outside of the box. Consider what events draw an international crowd in your area and go from there)
Leverage your university's and professors' resources to help get into clubs, networking events, internship opportunities, and informational interviews with people working at these organizations or the same/adjacent fields
Hope this helps xx

can i ask how did you get to move to europe? my girlfriend is from asia and wants to move to europe where i live but i have no idea of how it works. like where does she need to go, how long does it take, do we need to be married etc. it just seems like a lot of work... i know it's different from country to country but i was just wondering i guess
i can tell u my own experience! so it absolutely does depend on the country, some countries in europe are much more difficult to immigrate to than others. i came to germany with a "study preparation" visa, meaning i had to get a conditional acceptance at a german uni under the condition that i either complete some sort of training or language course. in my case, it was for learning german. this gave me 2 whole years to learn the language but i completed learning german within 1 year and got the language certificate. the second year i used to do some internships and apply for universities. after that, i had to accept a uni & pay the fees (in german public unis its maximum like 300 euros per semester, so its affordable compared to unis elsewhere) & bc of the type of visa i had, i extended my residence permit for my studies and after i finish that im hopefully going to do the psychotherapy training whichll be another 3 years meaning id have to extend my residence permit again. in germany peope who studied at a german uni require less time to get citizenship also (given that you already speak german at at least a .. i think B2 level?), so its pretty open to certain forms of immigration legally speaking. theres also a job-seeking visa for ppl in specific situations here i think but im not too familiar with that
on the other hand, some countries are extremely difficult to immigrate to but the easiest/quickest route is probably also to study there anyways which isnt an option for everyone. like switzerland for example is to my knowledge extremely difficult for anyone to actually immigrate to, but im sure there's certain cases where its more possible. so it really depends honestly.
in terms of how long it takes: in germany on avg i think ur supposed to wait like 3-4 months to get a long-term visa to stay in germany legally? but in my case they were probs being racist lol so it ended up taking longer and i had to ask a lawyer to help bc they were discriminating against me.
where do you need to go: im not sure if ur asking for country suggestions, but it depends. if she wants to study somewhere then honestly id recommend germany bc of the affordable education but it totally depends on what shes looking for her and her own criteria.

Knb x Bllk Crossover:
Which knb basketball teams would the Blue Lock boys be a part of?
Feat: Isagi Yoichi, Bachira Meguru, Shidou Ryusei, Mikage Reo, Nagi Seishiro, Kunigami Rensuke, Hiori Yo, Chirigiri Hyoma, Itoshi Rin, Itoshi Sae, Oliver Aiku, Shoei Barou, Zantetsu Tsurugi, Jyubei Ayru and Kenyu Yukimiya
Isagi, Bachira and Kunigami..... Seirin!
I think this one was already pretty obvious as Isagi's he's the main character, he wouldn't chose any of those private schools and instead go to a public one. I think he would get along well in a team like seirin
I have this headcanon that in the Knb universe Isagi and Bachira find eachother by both applying for the seirin basketball club
Kunigami just reminds me of Kiyoshi, at least pre-wild card Kunigami. Plus he doesn't strike me as a guy who has loaded parents, a simple school like seirin will do
Shidou and Rin..... Tōō!
I was torn between Kirisaki Daichi as well for Shidou due to rough play, however I quickly let that go as I don't see him going out of his way to ruin playing the sport all together in the name of violence (or as Hanamiya calls it: Rough Play) done in such a way Kiridai does
Secondly, I don't see him getting into a school such as prestigious as kiridai, Tōō is said to function more like a university therefore giving the students more liberty
As for Rin, I don't see him following in his brother's footsteps and going to Rakuzan out of spite and not wanting to live in his shadow any longer, so he chooses to go to a school that gives its students more liberty
Sae, Reo and Nagi..... Rakuzan!
Sae is known as 'The Protegy' and besides being given to play in Spain in bllk, I see him being accepted into a prestigious school like Rakuzan (yk, final boss vibes). Even though he's never looked at his report card, it's canon that he studies well
As for Reo, c'mon, he's a verified rich boy who's shit good at everything he does. How could he not get into the most prestigious school of all?
The only reason I chose rakuzan for Nagi is that it's canon that Reo and him go to the same school. Though I couldn't chosen Yosen since, ya know, they remind me a bit of Murasakibara and Himuro but I just don't see them entering a seemingly Christian school with all that western influence
Hiori and Chirigiri..... Kaijō!
Hiori's parents were the ones that enrolled him without his input, I'm sure of it. Due to the school having all sports club of national level, they probably think it would be the perfect school to hone his abilities
I don't have a specific for Chirigiri, I guess Kise's gonna have some tough pretty boy rivalry reason. Other than that just makes sense (at least to me) and that he'd fit in well (lmao I've probably said the same thing for almost every character)
Aiku, Yukimiya and Barou..... Yosen!
Yosen is a school that encourages western influence and apparently Aiku's half German and Swedish
For Barou, ughhh well I don't have a reason ✌️
I just see Yukimiya in Yosen, maybe Kaijō or Shūtoku, but Yosen makes more sense
Zantetsu and Ayru..... Shūtoku!
I just see these two in Shūtoku. Yeah, that's all you're gonna get 🤷

Persephone Rowen Grey
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"you are a force of nature, dear your breath curls from your lips"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"we could be hanging around here for centuries trying to make sense of this, my dear"
about Persephone:
suitors: Arthur & Faust
scorpio sun, scorpio moon, capricorn rising
Born in November 1995, Persephone was initially still born but was revived out of the womb, this is why her mother named her Persephone, like her older sister Artemesia named after a historical or mythological figure her mother admired. Her father left before she was born, leaving her to be raised by a single mother who wanted her daughters to have more opportunities than she had fostering a deep curiosity and thirst for knowledge in both of her daughters.
The trio were a close and loving family and they grew into intelligent and athletic girls who ended up winning them both scholarships to an elite girls public school where their mother worked as a secretary. Both Persephone and her sister ended up not only excelling academically, but finding passions outside of it with Artemisia becoming a skilled hockey player and Persephone discovering her love for ballet. She spent 2 years after finishing school in a French ballet company and touring Europe before going onto Edinburgh University to study a masters in Art History & English Lit.
Towards the end of her masters, Persephone began being mentored by a visiting respected expert in the Romantic movement; he was fresh out of a divorce, 25 years older  and very attractive, who encouraged  her to apply for a PhD at Cambridge where he was based so he could supervise her research. She was accepted but in the months before it began she, her mother and sister were involved in a car accident where she was the only survivor. When she began the PhD she was deep in mourning but couldn’t face dealing with it so she threw herself into her research and the mutual attraction between her and her supervisor ended up blossoming into a full fledged relationship. It was passionate, but also toxic, eventually leading to her having to abandon her path of being a researcher. After it all fell apart, she moved to London and began making money as an exotic dancer, eventually relocating to Berlin, then Paris where on one fateful day visiting the Louver she followed a certain gentleman through a very special door…
Personality:
Doesn’t suffer fools gladly, with a wit and winged eyeliner sharp enough to kill a man
Her favorite song is Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Her favorite writer is Angela Carter
Her favorite film is Suspiria (2018)
Scorpio sun, Scorpio moon, Capricorn rising 
Can out drink Arthur but not Faust or Comte
Fluent in French, conversational in German, Dutch and a good grasp of Latin
Her two passions are ballet and literature, she spent 2 years in Ballet of the Opéra National de Bordeaux touring Europe before going to Edinburgh University to study an MA in History of Art & English Lit
She only let those close to her call her Effy. The nickname was given to her by her sister who couldn’t pronounce her full name when they were younger, calling her Pers-effy instead of Per-sep-on-ne. Otherwise she prefers people use her full name, but will put up with being called Percy
 She has a bit of an insecurity over how small her breasts are, it was made worse by her ex who would sometimes use it to mock her 
Has a strong sibling-like bond to Theo & Vincent because they remind her of her older sister Artemisia. Including often engaging with arguments and prank wars with Theo while Vincent tries to mediate the chaos
When she was a girl, she had framed pictures of Arthur Conan Doyle and Percy Shelly decorated with love hearts and used to dream about marrying one of them. She will never tell Arthur this even under pain of death

Why Consider a Masters Degree in Germany? Exploring the Benefits and Opportunities
Tumblr media
Germany is one of the most popular destinations for international students who want to pursue a masters degree. According to the latest statistics, more than 300,000 foreign students were enrolled in German universities in 2020, making up 13.5% of the total student population. But what makes Germany so attractive for higher education? Here are some of the main reasons why you should consider a masters degree in Germany.
High Quality Education
Germany is known for its excellence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, as well as humanities, arts, and social sciences. German universities offer a wide range of masters programs, from traditional disciplines to interdisciplinary and innovative ones. Many of these programs are taught in English, making them accessible to international students. Moreover, German universities have a strong reputation in the global academic community, with 44 institutions ranked among the top 500 in the world.
Affordable Costs
One of the biggest advantages of studying in Germany is the low cost of tuition. In most public universities, there is no tuition fee for both domestic and international students, except for a small administrative fee per semester. Even in private universities, the tuition fee is usually much lower than in other countries, such as the UK, the US, or Australia. Additionally, the cost of living in Germany is relatively affordable, especially if you choose to live in a student dormitory or a shared apartment. You can also benefit from various discounts and subsidies for public transportation, cultural events, and health insurance.
Cultural Diversity
Germany is a multicultural and cosmopolitan country, with a rich history and culture. By studying in Germany, you can experience the German way of life, as well as learn about other cultures from your fellow students and professors. You can also enjoy the variety of cuisines, festivals, music, and art that Germany has to offer. Furthermore, you can take advantage of the opportunity to travel around Europe, as Germany is well-connected to other countries by train, bus, or plane.
Career Prospects
A masters degree from a German university can boost your career prospects, both in Germany and abroad. Germany has a strong economy, with many leading companies and industries, such as BMW, Siemens, SAP, and Bosch. As a graduate, you can benefit from the high demand for skilled workers, especially in STEM fields. You can also apply for a job seeker visa, which allows you to stay in Germany for up to 18 months after graduation to look for a suitable job. Alternatively, you can pursue a PhD or a research career in one of the many prestigious research institutes in Germany, such as the Max Planck Society, the Fraunhofer Society, or the Helmholtz Association.
How to Apply for a Masters Degree in Germany?
If you are interested in pursuing a masters degree in Germany, you will need to meet some requirements, such as:

Having a sufficient level of proficiency in the language of instruction (German or English)
Having a valid passport and a student visa (if required)

Having a health insurance coverage
The application process may vary depending on the university and the program you choose, but generally, you will need to submit the following documents:

A copy of your language test scores (such as TestDaF, DSH, TOEFL, or IELTS)
A motivation letter and a curriculum vitae
A copy of your passport and visa (if required)

the current genocide happening in palestine so brutally opened my eyes about german politics in terms of antisemitism awareness it kind of makes me sick
the german school curriculum does a lot for antisemitism awareness and for analysis and discussion of WWII and holocaust. i am not jewish so i can't say how much a jewish person would judge the methodology to be effective, but in school we extensively talked about how the fascist regime came to power in germany, why the movement was rooted in antisemitism, and while i think you could have gone into more detail about some aspects of it, i felt like my school at least laid a very solid basis for having an anti-fascist understanding. germany is very much funding a lot of jewish art and projects that are dealing with the holocaust, there are some quite well-known holocaust memorials and visiting a concentration camp is something most school classes do at some point.
and i genuinely think this is a good thing, there is a platform given to jewish people who want to express their indescribable trauma and anger and grief at the holocaust through art and museums and exhibitions and talks and monuments and in my personal opinion it did a lot in terms of creating awareness for antisemitism and the dangers of fascism, and please do not think that i view these things to be bad in any way
but one thing that has always bothered me that this applies to the holocaust ONLY, it is of course one of the worst against humanity commited, but germany never took responsibility in ANY way for the Herero and Namaqua genocide or any other atrocities commited. the most Namibia ever got was a weak apology that amounted to 'we aknowledge it :( sorry :('.
and at the same time germany hails itself as modern and progressive and past all barbarism and is publically atoning for the holocaust in every form they can. so the funding of these projects to me always had that sense of creating an image of atonement, more than actually atoning for a past. funding something good for the wrong reason still creates something good, but if you analyse it a bit, you can clearly see that this atonement is not for actual atonement's sake, but is instead done so that germany can be internationally respected again and is allowed to be in the Important Councils™ again, that france, the uk and the us are in, and so that they can officially be internationally "forgiven" by the other countries
i don't think this is an 'agenda' so to say, i think it's a lot more complex than that, and that politicians often probably actually want to combat antisemitism, but i don't want this post to go on forever, so just right now understand that in germany antisemitism awareness as a talking point has kind of become something that is universally aknowledged as "good", even the really fascist parties aren't stupid enough to have openly antisemitic talking points (they still are mad about every other minority, so idk if you're really supposed to believe that). and i again want to state that that is genuinely very good, that open antisemitism is seen as such a huge political no-go. openly denying the holocaust is a pretty severe crime in germany and you can get in REAL trouble for it and that is also a very very good thing!
however, all of this public atonement is fine and good, but what has germany done for the actual families of the victims of the holocaust? well. they paid 3 billion marks in reparations to a state that didn't exist 4 years prior to the agreement, which is, of course, israel. since its founding, germany has at every turn helped legitimize israel's existence and it's representation as the jewish homeland, while barely otherwise aknowledging victims of the holocaust when it comes to reparations
and in the modern day they have absolute gall to use this framing - that germany themselves created that israel is the state that we need to pay our atonements to - against everyone daring to speak up against the genocide in gaza. i know that a lot of western states try to frame support of palestine as antisemitic, but nowhere is it as insidious as in germany. the state that seemingly atones for genocide is calling speaking up against a genocide a hatecrime.
like i said, germany does a lot of things correctly but for the wrong reasons and now those wrong reasons stand in the way of the image they have previously set up as a peace-loving modern nation, and so they just hold up jewish people as a shield against any criticism of their defense politics, claiming that people opposing them are antisemitic, (which, like said before, is pretty much an universally aknowledged "bad thing") running news stories and quotes of zionist jews on the political situation and framing this occupation as "the jewish people of all the world vs. the evil terrorist palestinians", not caring how much actual antisemitism they create in the population, and how much they harm actual jewish communities, when they directly frame them as the enemy of the besieged palestinian population
