I think with Dracula I've reached the saturation point of loving it so much that I've ruined my ability to watch any adaptation like I simply have too many strong opinions about all aspects of the story no one who isn't me could come up with a version that hits all my adaptational preferences. I've flown too close to the sun.

#listened to a good chunk of Murray Mysteries again whilst I was cooking my course of a medieval feast #and while I am always grateful for 'it was Jonathan who was bitten' truthers it doesn't make any more sense to exclude Jonathan than Mina #'he's got trauma' fellas you treat trauma differently when the threat is ongoing vs. past and away #*anyway #i could get behind maybe lets keep Jonathan out of like. the dangerous legwork where we might meet the count #but why can't he make phonecalls for the group like???#besties you're literally just recommending the good ole Victorian rest cure like yeah sit home alone and feel excluded #while you know we're risking our lives :) this will help you heal #like all of these characters should know that this is a bad idea #also murray mysteries you know I think you guys are simply the best dracula adaptation #but where the fuck was Jonathan's visceral despair at realizing his abuser was back and had his claws in him again #like I know you guys were talented enougn to get him there why didn't you
