Arcadia Tales, Krel Tarron x alien!reader

Krel: So nobody on your planet uses math?

You: Nope. Never heard of it.

Krel: Ok.

You: Say, what is math anyway?

Krel: Well...

*Hours later*

You: Ok, so let me get this straight...

You, showing him the notebook full of math problems: You guys spend all day just writing this weird freaky symbols?

You: Are you an occult!?

Krel: No! It's for science. Math is the language of the universe.

You: Well, apparently the universe had a stroke because this is nonsense.

Krel: How did your kind achieve space travel without performing the necessary calculations?

You: It's a rocket! You blow some stuff up and it shoots you into space. It's not that hard!

You look to the side and your eyes widen.

You: Oh, my Crystal! You even write it on the walls! Like a psycho.

Krel: Well, that's a white board. Humans use it to teach children-

You: You do this infront of kids!?

Toby, Caire, Jim, Douxie, and Steve laughing.

Nomura, Striker, Barbara, and Blinky not understanding and confused.

Aaarrgh just chuckled once in a while.

Aja amused and reaching for the pop-ed-corn. She still needs to learn how to pronounce things.

Warning: Weight talk

I feel like screaming and tearing myself limb from limb because my weight jumped up again. I can’t cope. I knew I had a reason to feel disgusted by how my body looks and feels and I guess there’s my reason. I’m not eating differently to how I was in hospital where I was losing weight. If anything I’m more physically active now, going for more walks and having started volunteer gardening last week (which was intense enough to leave me in lots of pain but I guess that doesn’t take much in my case).

Medications have been changed. They changed my contraceptive pill a couple of weeks ago (to one which some sources say causes weight gain and some say it doesn’t and the GP said maybe it would happen but it was unlikely) because they discovered my history of migraines even though the one I was on was not giving me migraines any more frequently then I’ve had them for most of my life. I’ve been put on course after course of antibiotics for infections I’ve been having throughout the month. I had an allergic reaction on Thursday for which I was put on steroids, but only for a few days. I don’t know if they’re having an influence.

My carer said we’d talk to the doctor tomorrow about how to get me to lose the weight I’ve gained since moving in (1.2kg now) and also we’d go for more walks. Part of me was reassured by his promise but it’s a bit weird he said this as I’m still technically underweight. Whatever.

Nooooooo Duolingo just switched me over to the new course structure after all 😭

One more month until I get the 365 days achievement and then idk anymore. I'll probably keep using it until January when my subscription expires, but I don't know for what. Not Mandarin practice, evidently

I think my ultimate stance on Jonathan is that he is turning into a Dracula but not a vampire. There are Weird Things going on with him but possibly he's just Like That - the way I have become fully convinced that Mina was always a latent telepath and Dracula may have shaken it loose but he definitely didn't cause it. I made a whole chart once...

I go back and forth on Jonathan being bitten so that I am ultimately very happy the novel doesn't tell us, one way or another. On the one hand it's Occam's razor vis a vis June 29/30. And I like him and Mina having the same traumas. On the other hand if Jonathan and Quincey are the only two cast members whose blood doesn't end up in Dracula, that's a VERY interesting natural class. And his resolution to join Mina in vampirism is much more powerful if he himself is still Clean. On the other other hand the explanation that Renfield cannot perceive him just as he couldn't perceive Mina after she got drinkt is a very slick fix for Stoker wholesale forgetting he was there that one time.

and also it's hot

In "Blood of My Blood" we are going with (or at least, the human characters believe) anyone who gets bitten turns, because we need the Pretty Girl in Picadilly to be a vampire, but for general textual analysis I remain strongly in the camp that a blood exchange is required

(this is irt another post)

@animate-mush

i think....there's something to be said for jonathan's ambiguity.....something .......liminal.......vampiric, you might say

but 100% agree! i'm very pro him becoming vampiric in more the metaphorical sense, as a mirror to dracula, as opposed to literal vampirism. i enjoy jonathan in all his clumsy human rawness, and how, on a very basic storytelling level, it keeps him as the (relatively) underpowered foil to this impossible antagonist.

the point about quincey (and jonathan, if taken at face value) NOT having their blood in dracula is Fascinating......i'm not sure what it means. but it means something. some kind of....freedom, maybe? untainted?? i think quincey is always taken as the most....itinerant, least held-down of the suitors, and of the characters as a whole - and he's (possibly) the only one whose blood isn't bound up in this guy? still have no idea what the significance of that is but i shall ponder on this for the next five weeks
