THE COUNT | {vamprry} a preview

Series Summary: Count Styles lives on an island you’ll not find on any map. He’s lived in relative solitude for ages and is happy to have the rare occasional guest who accidentally runs into his small slice of the world, though they may not be as thrilled by his intentions once they find out what he is.

When Y/n's weather vessel crashes into his island one stormy night he greets her and offers her shelter in his castle while she waits for someone to help repair her boat. She soon comes to adore the strange and charming man and grows a worrying attachment. But she cannot help herself. No matter how much she learns about the Count and how strange her world has become she cannot seem to pull herself out of the haze of his alluring spell.

Even when her life depends on it.

Short preview below.

NOTE: this is from part 2 (which has not yet been posted on Patreon)

. . .

Pressing her ear closer to the door she closed her eyes and there was a distinct male voice, a sobbed moan that, after a loud thud, turned into something like a pitiful crying. But then she heard another voice and there was something familiar in the way it cooed and teased almost. She could not make out words but the sentiment was clear. There were two people in that room having sex and one of them was Harry. The other sounded to be a man.

Stepping back from the door she realized her mouth was hung open in surprise. Perhaps the Count was into men. Well, he was quite pretty. She could imagine that she supposed. Before she could even turn around the sounds behind the door stopped and the silence that suddenly surrounded her had her heart picking up a beat. Had she made a noise?

She swallowed and turned her head to see her door open down the hallway and wondered if she could make it quickly before anyone knew that she’d been listening in.

But the moment that thought popped into her head the door opened up and there was Harry in a long white cotton pijama, the top unbuttoned and nearly draped off his shoulder. She glanced over his frame and back up to his eyes but he was different. His irises were almost black and his mouth was set strangely, like he had swollen gums, “Would you like something, Y/n?”

Shaking her head she stepped back, “No. Sorry. I… heard something… nothing. I’m going back to bed. Sorry!”

She turned to move away but he stopped her, his hand wrapped around her upper arm, making her twist back to face him, “Are you sure don’t want anything?”

She darted her eyes behind him to the room he’d been in and it appeared to be lit by a fireplace. She saw something move across the doorway but couldn’t make out what (or who) it was.

“I’m sorry for disturbing you. That… I was just worried…”

He smiled, his lips covering his teeth as he closed the door behind him and stepped in dangerously close, holding her arm to keep her from inching away. He looked down at the dirtied material tucked under her arm and he grunted softly, “Oh my. What is this?”

Letting go of her arm he plucked the defiled sheets and nightgown from her and dropped the sheet to the floor, his hands crumpling around the white fabric, thumb dragging into the slippery wetness where her arousal had dripped.

She felt herself flush hot with embarrassment as she watched the Count inspect the damage she’d done to her nightgown. It was obvious what it was he was looking at.

“Poor, Y/n,” his dark eyes met hers as he lifted his thumb to his mouth and ran the pad of his digit against his tongue, eyes fluttering closed when he swallowed.

All of the breath in her lungs was caught and now the flush of heat was forming in her tummy as she watched him enjoy the taste. Her taste.

His jaw clenched as he opened his eyes and looked down at her, dark irises raking over her frame and then back up to her face, a deep exhale escaping his chest, “We’re all carnal beings, Y/n. There’s no shame in the body’s natural reaction to an arousing dream. All you have to do is call for me next time and I’ll make the emptiness go away. I’ll do whatever you ask.”

She couldn’t blink or look away from him. She was trapped by his haunting gaze as he drew a finger from her jaw up to her temple and then back down until he’d gently scraped his nail over her pulse point, pressing in just enough to make a small indent bite into her flesh, before lifting and pushing his nail in crosswise against the same spot.

“X marks the spot. Doesn’t it, Y/n?”

She gulped, “What’s that mean?”

Harry lowered his face close to hers. He was so close she could feel his breath on her cheek, “If you ask politely,” he wrapped his hand around the side of her neck, thumb dragging against her jaw, “I’ll show you what it means.”

Can’t sleep so here’s another headcanon

Virgil and Logan are both well-versed in chemistry, but only Virgil knows anything about brain chemistry.

There’s actually evidence to back this up!

Selfishness v. Selflessness

(19:47) Janus ask Virgil for insight for Thomas’ norepinephrine levels

Norepinephrine can cause depression if received too little, and anxiety if received too much

Can Plushies Improve Our Health?

(5:01) Virgil describes how petting an animal reduces the stress hormone Cortisol

Later in the video when Logan has his segment, he explains other impacts of plushies, but mainly mentions the physical benefits

What Makes The Perfect Gift?

(0:30) Virgil appears to be summoned unprompted and notes a sudden rush of adrenaline

Adrenaline can be brought on by both positive excitement and negative anxiety. Patton’s exclamation of Christmas joy was enough to summon Virge and he identified the adrenaline in the air immediately.

I like the idea of Logan being all over Thomas for abandoning all the chemistry he’s learned whilst Virgil actually held onto the information that applies to him and uses it to better identify his own stress symptoms.

Rosie about literally everything Judy has ever said

CONFIRMED: judy rybinski says *any* sort of word (example: rambling about oranges being her favorite thing ever) and rosie is automatically all ears watching her with hearts in his eyes no doubt.

TOO GOOD FRIEND ITS TOO GOOD !!!!!

y'know, i do think that actors are probably the closest that humans will ever get to a shapeshifter because sometimes i'll go through an actor's filmography and be totally taken aback by the sheer range of roles they've played and how violently dissimilar one role is from the other, so much so to the point that i'll literally forget that they played someone else and oh my god

[code31-onthedancefloor]

who is clingier out of the studcoms? I think they’re both pretty clingy, but in varying ways. steban appreciates having uli in the room and generally around him- there to back him up and express faith in him (especially after the reading ground fell apart). He probably also likes being able to exert a soft kind of authority over uli too. Maybe he’d get jealous or sad or discouraged in its absence- not necessarily relying on it but definitely more than fond of it. On the other hand, I enjoy the thought of uli actually being fairly touchy (once he learns that steban is used to physical affection and they are in a relationship). Just… sitting on the backrest near him and playing with his hair, being able to see him easily and put his head against steban’s chest to hear his breathing/heartbeat and smell him, parroting what he says….maybe they can compliment their potential insecurities (leader/abandonment) as well!

Additional Tristan's Homecoming episode description via What To Watch.

"It's Jimmy's Christening day and everyone is determined to make it special. Helen and Mrs Hall busily prepare to host James's parents and Siegfried is writing his godparenting speech. James’ parents are thrilled to see baby Jimmy, but Helen isn’t sure how to take some of Hannah Herriot’s comments.

"Siegfried is unimpressed when called up to Biggins farm to look at a goat. Biggins is a tricky client whose farm presents as many challenges as the client himself.

"Siegfried receives a surprise telegram from Tristan announcing he's coming home. Thrilled at the thought of having his brother back home safely, but with no further details as to what’s happened, Siegfried makes a promise to himself which he is going to struggle to keep.

"Siegfried and Tristan share a touching reunion and Siegfried is relieved to have him back. James is volunteered to help Mrs Hanley’s poodle who is oddly too attached to her toy. Hannah and Helen find common ground when they work out what's wrong with the dog.

"Meanwhile, Siegfried's promise is already under threat as Tristan unknowingly hijacks the day and drags everyone to the Drovers after the service, telling a rapt audience about his hi-jinks in Cairo. When Siegfried confronts Farmer Biggins over his treatment of a sick goat, it’s not just Biggins he loses his temper with.

"When Tristan helps Siegfried to teach Biggins an important lesson, the brothers rekindle their familiar dynamic."
