In honour of Tanz Hamburg closing, list of lines that enable my trans Sarah reading.
Sarah @ Alfred: "Du hast was ich gern hätt'"
Krolok @ Sarah: "Ich geb' dir, was dir fehlt"
Krolok @ Sarah: "Du wirst dich in mir erkennen"
#tanz der vampire#listen i don't have time to write my meta post right now but trust that there is context for this.#basically. when alfred first arrives at the tavern sarah thinks he is exactly who she wants to be#he has everything she wants: the freedom to travel and have adventures and also he's a guy (who gets a little sensitive with it)#the red boots symbolise her getting closer to that ideal (red like alfred's coat)#alfred is not permitted to die in the coat because sarah realises that he is actually NOT All That -#he is so much more like her than she thought.#his freedom is an illusion inhibited by a strict authority figure who barely sees him as a person.#but through her vampirism she can give him the power she thought he had from the very start#the freedom she craved#which is also why she pulls him away from the professor#narratively alfred is her post-transition self. she has to turn him (save him) she can save herself and also in a way become him#krolok also very much prusuing alfred fits into this btw.#anyway if this is incoherent I am sorry I should be working on my thesis.#my posts
