Classic Novel Memes

I want so badly to join in on all the booktok lad and lasses and people in between shenanigans but boy do I not have the money or time to keep up with all the hot new books. Can’t we all just go full 9th grade and sit in a circle talking about The Most Dangerous Game? I still own The Most Dangerous Game. The Casque of Amontillado? Anybody?

I just find classics fun and I already own them. I’ll gossip about Shakespeare characters for days please. 

Maybe I’ll just go on booktok and talk about classic novels like they’re trash TV. Cliffnotes mixed with confessionals

Our utmost favorite books tends to shift around depending upon the wind, but as of this moment, in no particular order:

Wurthering Heights, by Emily Brontë.

Homo Deus, by Yuval Harari.

Les Fleur Du Mal, by Charles Baudelaire.

Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep, by Philip K. Dick.

*sweating profusely, trying to flirt* so are you more of a brahm stoker’s dracula guy or a frankenstein; or, the modern prometheus guy?

[queer-flesh-simulacrum]

ever since The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in general tbh

I have always wondered how isolated sorcerers and madmen were able to commune with inhuman intelligences to learn spells but now I know they convey information via roleplaying and gaslighting. Wonderful 🤠😎😤

Every since Crowley magic and kink are basically the same thing-- it's 80% "yes and" improv, 20% outright lying. No, I will not elaborate.

OOOO do brahm stokers Dracula next! With sukuna!

OHHH WAIT YOU'RE ONTO SOMETHING NONNIE 👀 Oh, how I would let him bite me 😳

[darkbluekies]

Piggybacking off the last request I sent, I understand your disgust with the new dracula/Netflix adaption. I’m not quite a fan of it and found it extremely boring, I do however like interview with a vampire on Netflix and the old Brahm Stoker version. I would like to know how you feel about or if you’ve ever seen the Brahm Stoker version? Do you have any appeal to that kind of media? Also in my opinion, the best representation of that kind of behavior from your OC’s, “waiting it out and attacking/taking down the people closest to the one you desire”, would be Dr.Kry. Edmund is too impulsive and flashy. Silas allows his emotions/irritability to take over too much to do a plan in a very clean way and to make no unnecessary moves. Jerry bites at anything to remove it, she has tunnel vision, once she sees you she’s making a bee line to you. Hedwig seems like the second most capable person of having Draculas mindset and ways, then whisks you away as he does.

interesting! however, i don't think i fully agree!

As I said, I am going to copy the tension i felt between Dracula and Harker in that series, not Dracula himself and his demenour/behaviour!

No one else fits that tension better than Silas. He is calm, cold and intimidating, at the same time soft and gentle --- exactly what I need for this story! he has this "i am more powerful than you"-demenour without having to say it, like Edmund, and thats what I am going for.

I loved the show, i didn't think it was bad, i was just not prepared for how graphic it was going to be! I thought it was interesting, to say the least. I haven't seen the others you recommend because, usually, i'm not a big fantasy fan. i'm just in a phase right now lmao, but i will check them out!<3

9 books

I have been tagged by a bunch people on this (thanks @cricketnationrise, @clottedcreamfudge, @kiwiana-writes, @tintagel-or-cockleshells, @myheartalivewrites, @cultofsappho), so I guess I better do it even though choosing my 9 favorite books sounds impossible. A bunch of these are series, almost none of them are in any way new. Let's go!

Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien A perennial favorite. Fun fact, I once planned to pull a Christopher Lee and reread these every year but then my hyperfixation faded a bit lol. Still love the story and Tolkien's prose.

Dune by Frank Herbert This counts for the whole series, yes, even God Emperor. It took me a while to get to the last two books but I love them just as much, actually.

A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin Still obsessed with this story and desperately hoping we get the full ending that it deserves and not just what D&D butchered on the show.

The Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde The perfect combination of literary nerdery, comedy, and crime-drama intrigue!

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams Quite possibly the funniest book I've ever read, full stop.

Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer A nonfiction entry! I love all of Jon Krakauer's books but I'm also obsessed with mountain climbing (reading about it, not doing it lmao), and this one is one that still haunts me.

Blindness by Jose Saramago Read this in college, became obsessed with the poetry and imagery of it.

A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske Became absolutely obsessed with this one very quickly. Also I'm pretty sure the third book is going to become my entire personality when it comes out.

Dracula by Brahm Stoker Gonna be a hipster and say I've been obsessed with this book since I was in high school, which was long before Dracula Daily.

(Also reading everyone's lists has reminded me that I really need to actually read the copy of Circe sitting on my shelf...)

I can no longer remember who has and hasn't done this, so apologies for any double tags. @indomitable-love, @mirilyawrites, @loki-is-my-kink-awakening, @wolfpup026, @tedlassc, @beskarsoshiny, @lilythesilly, @jettestar, @iboatedhere, @pragmatic-optimist, @thesleepyskipper, @heytheredeann, @swearphil, @sweatersinthesummer, @petrodobreva, @b13-maybethistime, @liminalmemories21, @nontoxic-writes, @designatedgrape, @noahreids, @leaves-of-laurelin, @celeritas2997, @orchidscript, @athousandrooms, @welcometololaland, @rmd-writes, @dumbpeachjuice, @ikeepwatchinghelicopters, @okilokiwithpurpose, @thetamehistorian, @hummingbee-o0o

This question is for the Romanians (because I don’t speak to tyrants. Sorry Voulturi).

Anyhow, I wanted to ask for your opinions on the novel Dracula by Brahm Stoker. Is it accurate to Romanian culture and vampire folklore? Speaking of which, how much of that was inspired by or influenced by the two of you? Dracula as a character has a backstory that sound suspiciously similar to Vladimir’s.

-Warm regards,

Rebel anon

𝐕𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐫: Oh wonderful, a new mortal to rally behind our cause! Would you like to stay for dinner my dear?

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐚𝐧: Excuse Vladimir, he is trying to distract you all from the question at hand. It is a little known fact, that Caius leaked 'certified information' about my dear brother to this Bram Stoker, only that

𝐕𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐫: That is correct mortals, you have me to thank for that abomination of a book — on the record, I only have one wife and i love her very much.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐚𝐧: Vladimir was not impressed with Dracula.

𝐕𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐫: And I cannot turn into a fucking bat.

Hi! For the ask game :)

17: What are some tropes and character dynamics found in your wips? 22: What are all the “kinds” of writing/art you do? (short stories, poetry, screenplays, digital, painting, clay, etc.) 24: Do you have/want a career in your medium? If not, what do you do/want to do instead? 26: What are your favourite books?

Have a great day!

thank you so much for asking! i also thank you for your patience, i've been rereading some of my old writings to gather things for this. 17) some tropes i tend to prefer to write are usually found family, loving family dynamics, childhood friends to lovers, and sometimes i drabble with the classic coffee shop au. those are usually the tropes i flock to the most, i find them quite enjoyable! 22) since i'm still learning how to write, i usually just make short one-offs. i find it easier to write short stories that are about 1-2 paragraphs long. maybe 3 on a good day. i also like to write roleplay posts. i got my start by roleplaying warrior cats with friends when i was young! art wise, i usually stick with digital or traditional. 24) i do think it would be cool to have a career in art, but i don't have one currently. i grew up with a love for video games (namely the legend of zelda, mario, mortal kombat, donkey kong and sonic), and i always thought it would be amazing to be a character designer. creating characters for the things i like is very fun, and i would love to do more of it. 26) so far, my favorite books have to be the hobbit/lord of the rings, brahm stoker's dracula, watership down, animal farm, charlotte's web, warriors and wings of fire. i don't read as often as i wish due to being a bit picky with my reading material, but i'm trying to get into reading more! have a great day yourself and thank you for asking!

Why! Didn't anyone tell me Tom Waits is in brahm stokers Dracula. Gotta watch it!
