I don’t know if you know what The Magnus Archives is (it’s a horror podcast, it’s really good I absolutely recommend it! It has gay people and an asexual protagonist (who is also very autistic-coded!)) but I feel like since Jack K listens to podcasts that he’d be quite a big fan of it. If he manages to get others into it, I think that Natalie might also be into it? If you ever start listening to it, let me know what you think.

Ooh, see I've never listened to it, but I know vaguely what it is. I'll try checking it out at some point.

(Also sorry for not being active on here. Life, yk? Been working on other blogs and projects and shit)

And yeah, maybe. I think Jack K would probably have gotten into it when he was like 12 or something and as he's gotten older, introduced it to like... Jeff, Nat, Toby and Cody, and even Bentley.

Is there someone in Patrick's life that he cares about more than himself? Why?

Well, my first obvious answer would be Ciero - but that's a bit too easy...

...so, I'm gonna say Bentley.

Bentley isn't Patrick's kid by blood. Hell, he didn't know they existed for the first decade and a bit of his life, but...

...as soon as Bentley came into Ciero's custody, he just...

...he saw a bit of himself in this kid, a scared, broken kid that just needed some help.

And he was willing to give them that.

[Bentley has just finished reading "Catcher in the Rye" for school]

Bentley: kill John Lennon...

[They close his book]

Bentley: kill John Lennon!

[He gets out of his chair, reaches into a bottom drawer and pulls out a large steak knife]

Bentley: kill John Lennon... Kill John Lennon!

[They walk through to the living room]

Bentley: Hey, dad? Where does John Lennon live?

Ciero: John Lennon's dead, Bentley.

[They lower the knife instantly] 

Bentley: Aww. Dangit. 

[He drops it and walks away]

Nobody:

Ciero, when they got custody of Bentley:

I’ve been thinking about a vampire AU, so here are my current ideas/notes about it. Let me know what you think. (Thsi may be multiple parts, so apologies if it turns out to be.)

General vampirism rules in the EHA universe: (a) Vampires can age, however age very very slowly. A born-vampire, or youth-turned, will age normally until age 21, then begin the very slowed aging process (eg. A 50 yr old will look around 30, or so). (b) Vampires are not too common, but they also aren’t rare. Those that are vampires have to keep their state-of-being under wraps, as not to alert scientists, who tend to get grabby and very experimental. (c) Vampires are very tough beings. They can go through a lot, and not a single scratch will appear on their body. Octavian used to take advantage of this a lot and jump off high buildings (late at night) for the adrenaline, especially during manic episodes.

The (biological/born) Windroe family are vampires. They are generational vampires, with the vampirism going down decades/centuries, and the general tradition was for two vampires to marry, and have kids.

When Elspeth wanted to marry River, a human; it follows normal EHA canon and she is forced to marry Richard, a vampire, from a very wealthy family.

Elspeth and Richard then had four kids, Zephyr, Octavian, Ciero, and Favio, made only to prolong the vampirism in the Windroe family line.

Richard died from an unknown assailant shooting him with a silver bullet. To this day, his murderer is unknown.

Those married into the Windroe family, who are not vampires, are a very new development, and only one (so far) has been changed into a vampire since.

Patrick was turned when Ciero found him after his attempt. He was almost certainly going to die unless he got medical treatment immediately, and since that was not available, Ciero did what she thought was the next best thing, and changed him into a vampire.

Everyone found out what Ciero did as Patrick started going through the initial “feral” stages of turning. She got into quite a lot of trouble because of it.

Jack G is not a vampire, his sister, Jill, is, though (she got turned when they both lived in London, they were both 18 and close to their departure date to go to America). Zephyr has taken a very strong liking to Jack, and has actively talked about turning him.

Frankie is not a vampire, and isn’t too sure if he believes Elspeth when she says she is one. He’s unsure if he wants to get turned, though.

I’m not too sure if Mira would be, I don’t think so, but I’d love to hear your thoughts.

—

Jack K was born a half-vampire; his mother was a vampire and his father was a human. Jack was fully-turned by his mother a year before his enucleation, it’s unclear why she did it, but his turning did save him from almost dying. He really enjoys hunting, it’s oddly calming for him.

Olly is a half-human half-vampire, like Natalie. She knows what she is and has no current plans to fully turn.

Bentley is a vampire, both of his parents were vampires. He knows what he is, and is… okay with the fact. He can’t really change it now, can he? At least he can talk to Jane about it and get some tips for better dealing with it.

Jane is a born vampire to two, now dead, vampire parents. She isn’t too sure whether to like or hate her state of being, but at least her new parents have some good tips!

Natalie is a dhampir; a half-human, half-vampire. She isn’t aware of this, however. If she were to become aware of it, I think she’d want to stay as she is, not too sure, though. Any thoughts you have are appreciated.

Toby and Cody are probably vampires? They may’ve been turned after the car crash? I genuinely have no idea.

Jay is a vampire. He was forcefully turned against his will. It was one of the most painful and traumatic moment of his life. He hates being a vampire, and has tried to starve himself multiple times. It’s also really sucky because it means he can’t practice Islam with Naveedah (spelling?).

Brian is a vampire. He uses his immortality for evil, he loves setting fire to shit and walking out mainly unharmed. He also very much enjoys the hunt.

Doby might be human? Again, I don’t know. Kate smells like a human, but it’s hard to definitively tell.

And, everyone else is human.

Ooh, Mira would probably be some kind of lycanthrope, I feel...

I also feel like Natalie would be a werewolf too, however... purely bc her uncle James is very werewolf coded to me.

I love this idea, anon. And I'm actually half convinced to start a blog with this concept tbh...

If you ever do post that fantastical Windroe family AU, please make them vampires. I’ve been plagued with the thought of rebellious! vampire! Octavian ripping open a blood bag with him sharp teeth

(Nah, he'd drink it like a Capri sun)

See, here's the thing: the idea I have for the fantasy au is something that is so far removed from Creepypasta/Eldritch Hall that it could be its own original project.

I actually have plans for it to become something, if I can get the motivation to so so.

...anyway, the idea is basically that their family (more specifically, Elspeth's side) has a blood blessing/curse that gives everyone born into the family magical powers.

But, these powers come at a cost:

In every generation, at least one member of the family is assured to die incredibly young.

It is a sacrifice made unintentionally in order to keep the magic flowing.

And in how I have written the Windroe Family so far, you can definitely see how this comes into play.

Anyway, with how many in Elspeth's generation died, that definitely led to an increase in the powers of her children.

What are these powers? Well, starting from the youngest, I'll go back.

Starting with the babies ❤❤❤❤

Ollie: can talk to animals; can make plants grow.

Bentley: metaokinesis (control of metals).

Christopher (Kit): night vision; shadow manipulation.

Jack K, Jane: none. :(

Then, the Parental Gen 💙❤💛💚

Favio: Crystal manipulation; precious metal manipulation; shape-shifting.

Ciero: super speed; can increase frequency of molecules in other objects as well; increased flexibility.

Patrick: none. :(

Lydia: she never got to know.

Octavian: super strength; enhanced reflexes; super healing.

Jack G: none. :(

Jill: none. :(

Zephyr: telekinesis; telepathy; super agility.

Next, the elder gen! Elspeth and her brothers (and Frankie)! 🤍💜💖❤💙

Frankie: none. :(

Elliot: emotional detection (aura sensing); hypnotic singing voice.

Richard: none! >:)

Elspeth: hypnotic singing voice; telepathy.

Steven: increased strength.

Ezekiel: can make people believe his every word (charisma?)

And then, their parents (Hartwig, Linore) and Elspeth's aunt, Casseia. ���💖❤

Hartwig: none! >:)

Linore: hypnotic voice; shape-shifting.

Casseia: can talk to animals.

And the start of this family magic: Linore's parents.

Elderia: magic/witchcraft.

Damon: none. :(

...anyway, yeah. That's all I've got.

Sad!Ciero, researching dog breeds for his service dog: that dachshund is adorable! Its' legs are so short!

Bentley, sat on Ciero's lap: it's cute, even with stubby legs?

Bentley, looking directly at Ciero: does that mean I'm cute too?

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Happy April Fools day everyone.

Have a headcanon!

Kate learns about what April Fools day is, but doesn't quite get it - so she just runs around doing weird things.

Like, she puts one of her stuffed animals in the fruit bowl.

"Pank!" (Prank)

She walks on all fours and follows Smile.

"Pank!"

She puts one of Bentley's favourite Beanie Babies on their bedside table, instead of on his shelf?

"Pank!"

She slaps Tim.

"Pank!"

Tldr? Kate doesn't get pranks.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Someone: *sees Sad Ciero's wedding ring* oh, how long have you been married for?

Ciero, in his twenties: 21 years.

Someone: Oh... how is that possible?

Ciero, covering baby Bentley's ears: I count it in dog years. Because my wife's a bitch-!

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Nobody:

Patrick and Ciero to Bentley:

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

are you okay? you haven’t answered any asks lately :(

Bentley: Oh, my God. Do you know what this is?

Ciero/Patrick: It’s a book. There’s a lot of those in here, this is a library.

(I'm okay. Just haven't been motivated lately).

Also, wisuehehe yes.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

oo headcanons for Jane/Bent getting along with their dads? like, what’s their all-time favorite thing to do together? :D

Probably either movie marathons or game nights.

Movie marathons consist of Back to the Future, the Bill and Ted quadrology, Breakfast Club, and the original and prequel Star Wars trilogies.

Game nights are full of Mario kart, animal crossing, scrabble, trivial pursuit, and Cluedo.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Jack K headcanons, p l e a s e

i’ve neglected my man D:

Jack K helps Jack G make Christmas cakes every year. Xe pours the fruit and almonds into the bowl. Jack G handles the brandy.

Sometimes, Jack sits with Bentley and listens to them type up some HTML. The kid has a sort of rhythm that comes through when clicking away.

Jack has dog shamed Seed before for getting herself locked in a pantry and eating all the snacks.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Does Bentley get along well with his parent? Oooo~! And are they supportive of Ciero’s gender identity? Is Ciero supportive of their (B) gender identity?

They get along.

While it is a little rocky at first, the two bond over a shared love of chickens and sci fi.

Ciero and Bentley are incredibly supportive of each others gender identities.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Would Jack K ever dress Bentley or Olly (or Kit if he ever meets his piblings and cousins) up in the way that he does? How would both Olly/Bentley react and the parents?

Bentley and Jack already have a lot of overlap in their fashion choices, so there isn't much that can cause a reaction in parents.

Kit also shares some stylistic simarities.

Olly, however, has a lot of rambunctious scallywag outfits, so her dressing like Jack would be a real shock to her fsmily. But it would be welcomed.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Ciero and his kid. direct contrasts to each other

Ajdjdjd yes.
