laura heard "when is a monster not a monster? oh when you love it" and took that a little too literally
#laura voice: ive seen beauty and the beast!!! he stops being a beast!!!!#godddd#head in HANDS#this fucking episode. this fucking season#'the story isnt just...............fall in love with a monster...................that'd be a stupid story#i dont wanna be a part of that stupid story'#shouldnt have fallen in love with the monster then babe#fuckin delicious mentally contrasting this with thasmin#like to be clear theyre entirely very different dynamics in every way#different characters different dynamic different issues#but thats why the comparing is fun#the only way theyre similar as ships i think is that the partners are very similar to each other#but even there; with thasmin thats part of the problem while with hollstein i think thats why it works#hollstein looks like a......idealist/cynic dynamic but it's not#oh my god carmilla's vampire ex routine is so fun shes so fun#tells laura she loves her while breaking up with her#immediately tries to balance out that insane vulnerability by leaning HARD into the apathetic detached vampire thing#'yea im not turning into prince charming creampuff. deal with it'#i love this defence mechanism. i love how soft she really is under it which we get to see in the first half of s2#i love how it makes it so obvious she was hiding behind this same shield all of s1#and by extension all of like the last couple of centuries#like yazs reaction to figuring out the doctor kinda sucks is to like. embrace it. live with it. learn to understand it.#enable it perhaps but theres an acceptance there. like she fell in love and then the rosecoloured glasses broke and then she decided#to love the doctor still.#thats my take on yaz anyway#but laura like. fell in love. and went. okay then my love must be Good#yaz went 'okay i'll join your lie'. laura tried to make carmilla join HER lie. or her misconception of the world.#it's less of an active self-deception it's more just naivety#i just. aaaaaaaaaaa. theyre the same age!#anyway. i want yazs diaries and carmilla's.....i dont think she does diaries. and she wouldnt talk to a camera. carmilla's book annotations
