Whenever I do have a little nosey about something I'm watching I'm always reminded by why I find fandoms and people really into them deeply off-putting . When they do bother to give their two cents, it's always an issue with something that's so weird it's nit picking or very silly.

The criticism of why does Annette have west African magic Vs Haitian, she's one of the first gen to be born on what will become Haiti. Why would she ? Haiti as a nation had much longer to develop their culture and spirituality without having slave masters and the story starts before Haiti becomes Haiti . Even if this criticism were to have legs, it doesn't take away from the story and the first generations born into slavery are going to have a much stronger connection with west African culture and a different culture Vs some like me or anyone in my family. Their family was literally in Africa yesterday. Come on!!

Do some people understand that first seasons are meant to establish certain things to build on it later? The story doesn't need to happen all at once. ' this wasn't developed ' well duh! We're one season in. Relax! The story isn't over yet

Morning Vibe - 05032024

PROSE Its dark still, but its morning. You know this, not because of any alarm, but because you can hear the birds speaking to one another, not that you can understand, but an announcement all the same. Now you hear the stillness of the night dissipate. The horn of the :07 shatters the remains. Your feet slowly hit the floor. The aroma de timed sanity tickles your nostrils. You creep down the…

Could you write richter Belmont relationship headcannos or just anything for him pls

He’s a wanker (affectionate)

^^ that is also the nickname you’ve come up for him because it seems like ever since being in a relationship with him, Richter had made it his mission to be a right pain in your ass, but you loved him none the less.

Not an early bird that’s a damn fact. He gets all grumpy if he’s woken up earlier then he would like but his bed head, furrowed brows and pouty lips made him look utterly adorable that you never take his complaining seriously.

Hogs the bed and blanket to the point you have to fucking fight him for even just a smidge of it, only for your efforts to be rewarded with the corner of the blanket…needless to say you’re not impressed. Not even in the slightest.

Protective: Being a Belmont is never an easy life and Ricther is well aware of that. So I wouldn’t be surprised that he would sometimes become overbearingly protective, but just know that it comes from a good place and not wanting to see you in a situation where you’d get hurt. It’s not something he’s willing to risk after loosing his mother, so alongside being protective he’s going to be overbearing and dead set in his ways when it comes to your well being.

So if you got a problem with that, you might wanna sit him down and talk about it until you both come to an agreement.

Smug/Cheeky/Sarcastic cunt and it’s always during the worst moments possible.

Your fighting? Richter has the audacity to say ‘you look like you’re debating on whether or not to punch me. I’d happily prefer it if you were to kiss me instead.’

Spoiler: He don’t get the kiss like he had hoped.

You’re chewing him out for being hardheaded and accidentally letting it slip that you love him? This dude will smugly smirk, lean in towards you and say: ‘so if cursing me out for doing stupid shit and near enough biting my head off is your version of telling me you love me? But then again everyone’s got a unique way of telling people they love them, so I’m not one to judge.’ Only to add on afterwards. ‘I pray that I never live to see you angry then.’

His love language has to be between either acts of service or physical affection.

He’s a genuinely sweet boy with a big heart and so he would be so soft with you, especially if you to get injured with the way his hand would him you firmly and in place, but also in a way where you thought he was scared of hurt in you further and you’ll have to reassure him that you weren’t going to break and do what needs to be done to help you heal properly.

Cuddle bug. As said before, he’s not an early bird and will get grumpy when he’s awoken earily then he would like but if you were to try and move out from his strong arms, he will whine and grumble about you leaving him and won’t stop until your back into his arms where he will shut up and fall right back to sleep. Also good luck trying to get up in general because Richter will not make it an easy task for you, seriously, try and move an inch and Richter is immediately pinning you to the bed with his body weight.

He loves cuddling you as it’s a reminder that you were alive and breathing, which is extremely reassuring when he’s had a nightmare that included loosing you to a horde of vampires. He’ll hold onto you a lot more tighter after experiencing an nightmare, all you’ll have to do is run your hands through his beautiful chestnut hair whilst whispering sweet nothings to him in hopes that it’ll reach to him deep in his sleep. It does because you’ll see his face relax, his grip slacken and a soft smile graces his lips.

Idk but I’m feeling that he’d enjoy forehead kisses, giving and receiving that is. He’s gets this cute, dopey smile when he feels you push back his hair back to press your lips against his forehead, he’d also close his eyes in content and lean into your affection.

When he’s the one giving forehead kisses however, he’s always making sure to bring you in close to him to the point that there was no more space between you before pressing his lips to your forehead and keeping them there for longer then he should before pulling back to give you his award winning smile that never fails to set you aflame.

I can’t think of anything else so I’m going to end it here. 🦦

some general hcs for ricther, karlheinz and yui for sub au? my babies haven't been getting the attention lately

Underappreciated characters, yayyyy~ XD

. . .

Richter

• Once he's attached to you, Richter is needy. And even more so if the relationship places him in a fully submissive role. It's easy for him to spiral into that kind of mindset— the only problem is that it makes him even more desperate. Being able to show how desperately he wants your love without any expectation of taking the lead is more comfortable for Richter than he ever would have expected, and it just enforces how much he adores you.

• He very much likes feeling "owned". Not having to compete for scraps of your attention is an incredible relief on its own, but Richter greatly enjoys it when you go out of your way to show your possession. He probably should be more concerned with his apparent lack of dignity, but when willing submission ends in finally feeling loved, it's difficult to care much about pride.

Karlheinz

• It's a strange dynamic with Karlheinz. Outwardly, he appears as intimidating and composed as ever, even when far less regal things are happening whenever you're alone. He doesn't show his submission in openly obvious ways... but you'll quickly learn the signs that he's wanting to be "put in his place". For Karlheinz, the act of submitting to you is almost a game. He wants you to take control on your own, and force him to feel in the process.

• There's a long period of time where he's almost in denial. Karlheinz tries to act like your relationship is nothing more than him finding a bit of entertainment in someone who could never truly best him, even when he's clearly surrendering himself to you with full willingness. Of course, that just means that you get the fun of making him understand just how much he wants it all.

Yui

• You don't have to do much to get her into that sort of role. Yui is fairly submissive, to begin with— just very flustered about that part of your relationship. After everything she's been through with the vampires, though, it's easier to accept anything, so long as she's being treated kindly. Especially once she sees how happy it makes you, Yui is a sweet, willing submissive, and she slowly manages to relax into the faith that you won't be cruel with that.

• She definitely does best with more of a "soft dom". While Yui does have her masochistic side, she's had more than enough of being roughed up without any tenderness to make up for it. It's a lot easier for her to enjoy sweet words and soft touches along with the moments of pleasure-pain, and the kindness definitely helps her accept that there's nothing she needs to be ashamed of.

What did you think of Annette from Castlevania: Nocturne? Personally, her altered background did nothing but add even more filler nonsense on what is already a cramped season. And even then, her character arc took up more attention than Richter's, which is quite appalling since her arc had nothing to do with the main storyline (all it did was drag the show even more).

Not to mention, she spent most of the season hating on Richter for no reason, calling him a "child" and "useless as fuck" on certain occasions. I also can't forgive her for chastising Richter as a coward when he ran away at the sight of his mother's killer, when she literally blew their plan at the Chateau and indirectly killed Edouard when she saw Vaublanc, her mother's killer. And even then, no one blamed her for that, which makes it even worse since she constantly makes everything about her and her tragic past as a slave.

So the sudden hint at their romance was both cheap and forced as their chemistry is non-existent throughout the story. I still remember how Steve Stark, a background designer for both Netflixvania shows, fighting against the fans for this decisions, claiming:

"Go complain about something that matters."

Which by itself is a self-own. If it didn't matter like you claimed, why go through such lengths to change her entire character. Surely it must matter to you.

N!Annette should've been an original character while the original Annette is left well enough alone (to which I'm trying to do in the rewrite). And to dunk on the people who would say that game Annette had no personality and is pointless, need I remind you that Rosaly from Curse of Darkness never appeared in the game at all yet the writers behind the manga dedicated their time to flesh her out in the manga itself. So it's not the characters that are the problem, it's the writers.

Sorry about that whole rant. Caught myself blabbering there.

She is not a character. She is discourse bait, and as such, I don't engage with her or the discourse surrounding her seriously.

You pretty much said everything. Annette is insufferable because in theory her flaws make sense. She's brash, angry, has little patience for anyone, wants to do things her own way, maybe even looks down on "privileged" people out of mistrust and bitterness: all behaviors that I can see stemming from the background of a runaway slave. Her breakdown indirectly causing Edouard's death? We have a decent conflict here! (ignoring the fact that Edouard is also not a character so I don't really feel anything for him.) But then she becomes utterly infuriating when the asshole dares to make fun of Richter for his lack of magic, when he all but told her that he lost his powers due to his mother's death - or at the very least, he told her that his dead mother could do magic and maybe that would be a sore spot for him! And the worst part is, Maria and Tera are standing there with no reaction! Tera, you useless idiot, this stranger that already proved herself unreliable is pushing your adopted son's trauma button! Do something!

Same when Ricther runs away, she is all too happy to insult him, call him "useless as fuck", and you think that Cecile would knock some sense into her and be like "hey girl you also ran away from the man who hurt you and killed your mother, maybe don't be so quick to judge", but noooooooo we need to talk about how Annette's character is literally "ex-slave" (hey she says it, not me), culminating in her saying "as if those french people could ever understand us!" woman what is you doing could we please talk about Annette now and stop coddling her????????

And you can look around and think, oh, maybe they're right. Evil, violence, and oppression everywhere. Even these French with their high ideals. What do they know about what we've suffered? And what do they care? They'll build their new world, but it won't be freedom or equality or brotherhood for us.

You were drawing a parallel and trying to teach her empathy for someone that, before being a white European, is a victim of vampires and evil just like her, and you end up telling her that no one else will have empathy for her??????????

And remember: Richter likes this asshole so much that the memory of her is what unlocks his magic! Not his mother. Not his grandfather. This stranger who has been cordial at best, and antagonistic at worst. what's with these shows and having the most godawful romance stories this side of twilight

So the sudden hint at their romance was both cheap and forced as their chemistry is non-existent throughout the story.

Annette suffers from a similar problem as Sypha and Isaac: they're stuck in the role their videogame counterparts have, even when it makes no sense. Sypha bullies Trevor as much as Alucard does, and in fact she seems to like the latter more (when Alucard is a cock to Trevor and he understandably lashes out back, Sypha tells him to grow up, the absolute fuck), but oh wait, she needs to fuck Trevor as per canon! So she travels with him and they're suddenly all cutey and lovey. Isaac is forced to resent Hector for his "betrayal" of Dracula, when if you watch the season, Isaac should only blame himself for being an utter negligent dumbass in regards to Carmilla, who was the real mastermind and he knew it. Annette is nothing but scornful towards Richter, but we need to push them together because hey Annette was meant to be the love interest, and the writing is even worse here because at least Trepha takes two seasons to become canon, but here we go from "stupid Belmont, useless as fuck" to them blushing together in the span of, like, seven episodes?

If it didn't matter like you claimed, why go through such lengths to change her entire character. Surely it must matter to you.

And this is what I mean with "discourse bait". Nothing about Annette is genuine. She is a stereotypical, safe, flat character, she's both the "tough girlboss who is mean to nearly everyone but we swear she's kind inside!" and the "tough black woman with a slave past, tragic enough to make her badass but without more questionable parts like her for example betraying fellow slaves to save her own skin" (so that you get called sexist and racist if you don't like how much of an ass she is! How convenient. Even though I'd argue is much more racist that she freed herself with god powers rather than her own human ingenuity...); and on top of that she's derivative from a game character, a fairly minor one too, so that if you don't like that she has "replaced" the original you can be told that you are, once again, racist, and anyway the original Annette was bad anyway so why would you care, you stupid purist? They did the same with Isaac, before he became the Gary Stu of the story.

And this is why the genuine racists who don't have a better argument against her than "muh wokeflix, how dare they have black people in my fantasy series" piss me off. You are poisoning the well. Stop it. Get better arguments.

And to dunk on the people who would say that game Annette had no personality and is pointless, need I remind you that Rosaly from Curse of Darkness never appeared in the game at all yet the writers behind the manga dedicated their time to flesh her out in the manga itself. So it's not the characters that are the problem, it's the writers.

You can make the same argument with nearly every character in both shows. The hints of personality are there, they only need to be fleshed out! Rosaly was fleshed out into being more than a "kind girl": she became too kind, and stubborn and naive and suffering from loneliness, and that made her interesting while still keeping true to her general archetype and role! They could have deduced from the games that Trevor is a charismatic, friendly individual with a hotheaded streak, instead of turning him into the most cliché cynical drunkard! They could have deduced from the games that Annette, despite her role as damsel in distress, has a lot of courage, from the scene where she nearly kills herself out of spite for Dracula, instead of a generic badass with godlike powers! But no character is kept faithful, there was no respect or care for anything, nothing but inflated superiority that they can do better (with fans sadly agreeing), everyone is just a bunch of OCs masquerading as canon characters for the sake of being clapped for "fixing" the stupid writing of the games, even when said characters were already fleshed out enough like Alucard or the Devil Forgemasters so they really had no "muh 8-bit game" excuse (and if they couldn't keep Isaac's flamboyant personality then they're just homophobic cowards)

tl;dr i don't like annette and i can only hope that alucard hijacks the story so much that she'll have minimal screentime. i mean he's hardly better, but at least i can call him a cunt without risk of getting doxxed or shit

[killamorrikilla]

I’m extremely late to the party but after watching “spies are forever” and see Joey as Owen, I realize Joey Ricther is kinda hot.

[daiwild]

dont you think shaggy's actor in the 2010 lake monster live action scooby doo movie and joey ricther look similar (I have an obsession)

no, not at all 💚

[just-an-enby-lemon]

I normally don't talk about Harry Potter because of reasons (mostly JK sucks and I find the books itsselfs to be mediocre at best and deeply problematic at worst) ... But I'll do a concession to mention how legimally funny the AVPM trilogy is. Between Lauren being the best Draco Malfoy to ever Draco Malfoy, Darren Chris amazing voice, everything involving Dumbledore and Voldemorr is soo good and AJ Holmes Gilderoy is a genuine treassure.

It has soo many iconic moments and things like the subplot love story between Scarfy and the Sorting Hat, Voldermot and Quirrell romance, Ron always snacking during the scenes, Pigfarts, Hermione Can't Draw, Gilderoy's Rat Prince monologue!!

The song's are also iconic. My favorite is I'm Just a Sidekick both because is a great characther analysis and because I love Joey Ricther voice and that song is - in my opnion - the moment were he really starts to understand musical tecniques and therefore the first of a series of amazing solo songs.

It's not Starkid's best. Far from it. But it's such an iconic and solid start and I tend to dismiss it for their other works but from times to times I'm recomended clips of it on YT and remember how genuinally great it is.

5 days till Halloween!

Drawing some of my OCs in costumes! First off is Alice in Ricther's outfit!

[trgcprnc]

one day i will write about alucard and his complicated relationship with gender and sexuality because he doesn't believe he has a right to actually participate in the world and therefore hasn't expanded himself outside of lyudmil and the "sleep for decades and kill my dad" like outside of his time living with maria and ricther but do know that in like 2003 when he was still figuring out his arikado persona someone referred to him as ma'am in a genuine way and he has been thinking about it ever since.
