yeah I agree with you on DM not overshadowing TVL or really any other season tbh. Not to say they’re not important but given that the original source material (books) is pretty sparse regarding Daniel, Rolin has so much wriggle room with him vs other characters.

I do feel that some fans don’t like the pairing so they’re very resistant to seeing their relationship in any capacity - a bit odd but taste is subjective 🤷‍♀️ I’m a DM girlie through and through and I do think part of it stems from the fact that his story isn’t a fully fleshed out the way other characters are by virtue of Daniel being more of a modern presence and the fact that AR didn’t write about him much. To her credit however, as a “Daniel is my best friend, he’s my pal. he’s my homeboy. my rotten soldier. my sweet cheese. my good time boy.” fan, I do appreciate that she doesn’t just kill him off and gives us some inclination on his fate in the end and those gaps of nothing lets our imagination run a bit wild so it makes it a bit more fun as a fandom imo.

Given the lack of prominence of DM overall I am setting my expectations low so I’m not disappointed lol but being let down with the movie adaptations and DM not getting their fair shake I hope it’s a fully fleshed out as it possibly can be as a back burner type story line. Louis & Lestat, Armand & Daniel are my core four, stove top characters lol Loustat as the front burners and Devil’s Minion as the back burners 💀

And I think that is the perfect description :)

Personally I cannot wait to see what the show does with DM. I mean, I get why some were taken aback, but there have been so many little comments already since that "out of spite" one :) ... and, I mean, Daniel's and Lestat's interaction???? Ohhhh, there's so much possibility for SO MUCH DIRTY LAUNDRY *snickers*

I mean we do not know what Daniel knows? What Lestat knows? What's the status, you know? What WILL be the status when that documentary is over^^....

Ahhhhhhh :))))

Gimme. All of it^^.

PLEASE EXPLAIN THE CRIMINAL MINDS BONES OVERLAP

OF COURSE!

Now, the fandom has many different favourites among the Squinterns. But my favourite is this guy:

Beautiful jack-of-all-trades, all around good guy, Wendell Bray 🙏 Arguably the only normal human being who has ever set foot on the forensic platform.

God bless.

But, despite him being my best friend, my pal. my homeboy, my rotten soldier. I find it almost impossible to wholeheartedly enjoy his episodes. That is because he unfortunately shares his face with this man:

Christ Salters, from Criminal Minds season 6 episode 7. I don't feel like listing his crimes due to the sheer number of trigger warnings I would have to put on this post, but you can of course check them out yourselves on the wiki.

But unsteady-calcium, you say. This was only one episode of Criminal Minds, a show which has been going for decades. Surely you can put it out of your mind for the sake of our sweet cheese, our good-time boy? Our golden-haired retriever?

No. Unfortunately I know his criminal minds episode better than the palm of my own hand. For one very simple reason.

Season 6 and 7 of Criminal Minds are the seasons which focus on Emily Prentiss' arc. And, as any self-respecting wlw I have of course watched every episode like a hundred times.

I wrote a CM fanfic set during those seasons which is like 40k but we dont need to talk about that

So, now, whenever my favourite squintern is on screen, I am cursed to remember that time he commited combine harvester-related serial killings in Indiana 🚜

It is my cross to bear. Thank you for the ask 🫡

Apologies for the delay! 1 and 11 for the latest creator ask?

And my apologies for the slow answer😅from your very magnificent ask meme here (and I've JUST seen the political minutiae one from today as well and I'm WHEEZING)

1. Your hottest Durgetash take. The kinda heat Gortash had to endure in HoH. (But be respectful about it fellas, this means everyone)

Oh man I sort of try to avoid posting "hot takes" because I did my time in the Dragon Age fandom and it's very easy to hurt people's feelings because there's such a fine line between vagueblogging and hot takes sometimes... I suppose my thing would be that as much as I'm notorious for writing a happily ever after tragic romance with Gort, I feel like it does him a fundamental disservice as a character to try to... whitewash? His capacity for cruelty? There are piles of rotting bodies in the Steel Watch factory from what we are told are explicitly his experiments, based on the correspondence between him and Balthazar about controlling an undead brain with a tadpole. He kidnaps several young women and girls - at least one of whom he murders and puts her head in a jar 'because he liked her singing voice'. And yes teddy bear bombs etc etc, we all talk about that one, but as much as I love reading romantic Gort stories (with Tav or Durge! I'm not fussy!) he's so much more than just a charming bad boy villain, he's a man with a cruel and sadistic streak a mile wide. He's not afraid to get his hands bloody, and will in fact enjoy it

And yes we can all have our own headcanons of course, that's what makes fandom such a beautiful place, is the depth and breadth of ideas people bring to a character and offer up to one another by way of fic and meta and art but I suppose that's just one that'll always make me go hmm

11. Sceleritas my beloved, how exactly does he fit in there?

He’s my best friend, he’s my pal, he’s my homeboy, my rotten soldier, my sweet cheese, my good time boy-

Younger Kass had a relationship with Sceleritas that I would almost classify as... he was like an extension of herself. He was there almost before she could anticipate a need, and they worked together in a fluid harmony that could be unsettling. This synchronism was fundamentally broken by Bhaal's resurrection, because of course she wasn't supposed to survive that event and so they never reconnected on that same level again. That's the point when he became more of a babysitter, spending his time trying to realign her with Bhaal's desires and slowly failing over the next decade

I wasn't as huge of a Sceleritas fan until I saw a video of an Accepting Dark Urge kill him permanently. That was the moment I saw him as a creature fully separate from Bhaal and not just a shadow puppet Bhaal was projecting onto the wall of the cave. His capacity to change like Durge is questionable, but his fear of death and his anxious desire to live really hit me hard and since then I've been ride or die for him. Bhaal can't have him in my canon, if I can redeem Gortash then I can redeem Sceleritas

Favourite Character Bingo - 2023

Characters I first encountered in 2023 (not necessarily part of media released in that year).

These are intended to be ordered loosely according to genre, moving from classic to contemporary horror, sci-fi horror, thriller horror, on to drama, comedy, then comic/cartoon and fantasy. Naturally, plenty of these don't quite stay in their own prescribed mould and could be considered fitting for another genre, but this is MY PARTY and I make the rules >:(

The hardest thing I've ever done may just be forcing myself to choose only one Baldur's Gate 3 character. If this was ordered by fondness for the characters, Astarion would be up top, but it's not and I'm petty so he's last and least.

As may surprise no-one, the prevailing trends are trickster archetypes, gothic looks, autism coding, and sympathetic or misunderstood status and/or rebellion. Also Billy Crystal is there.

Listing below the cut!

Countess Marya Zeleska - Dracula's Daughter (1936)

Mrs. Danvers - Rebecca (1940)

Lady Sylvia Marsh - The Lair of the White Worm (1988)

Nevena - You Won't Be Alone (2022)

Kim Diamond - Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000)

Brynn AND the Aliens - No One Will Save You (2023) (as an interacting set of characters, not necessarily as interesting actors singularly)

Violet and Corky - Bound (1996)

Andrea "Dre" Greene - Swarm (2023)

Gunther - V/H/S/85 (2023) - Goth boy who saves the day through his prescient lucid dreaming and rebels against being falsely cast as the villain, hell yeah.

Willard - Willard (1971) - would be in the top three if this were sorted by level of favoritism.

Gerd Wiesler - The Lives of Others/Das Leben der Anderen (2006)

Primo - Big Night (1996)

Walter Tattersall - Yellowjackets (2021-) - of call the cast and I fixate on THIS GUY. Got me again, Elijah!

Willie Jack Sampson - Reservation Dogs (2021)

Barabara Howard and Melissa Schemmenti - Abbott Elementary (2022-) - My god these two gripped me. Just give them an entire season. Gregory can be there too.

Gregory Eddie - Abbott Elementary (2022-)

Sally Albright and Harry Burns - When Harry Met Sally (1989)

Raven - Teen Titans: Beast World (2023-) - solely for her design; I am practically floating at the departure from emo/punk Raven and a return to a more whimsical gothic look. Another artist draws her looking like Billie Lourd and I'm into it.

Sharon Apple - Macross Plus (1994/1995)

Spider-Punk/Hobie Brown - Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

The Medicine Seller/Kusuriuri/薬売り - Mononoke/モノノ怪 (2007)

Astarion - Baldur's Gate 3 (2023) - He's my best friend, he's my pal, he's my homeboy, my rotten soldier, my sweet cheese, my good time boy, and I've been so excited for you all to see his whole schtick since way back in 2020.

Runner Up's: Shin Hati (Ahsoka), Mirror Woman (The Art of Mirrors) - don't ask, Nearly everyone else form Baldur's Gate 3 but especially all the companions and the Emperor oopsies I'm a sucker, Padraic (Banshees of Inisherin), Mary (Carnival of Souls), everyone from Dungeon Meshi but esepecially Marcille and Senshi, Lorne Malvo (Fargo), Motoko Kusanagi (Ghost in the Shell), Brigitte (Ginger Snaps), The Harppy (Harpya), Joel and Ellie (The Last of Us; kept out because of the Zionist higher plot), Dracula and Clemens (The Last Voyage of the Demeter), Martin (Martin), Izzy Hands (Our Flag Means Death), Father Amorth (The Pope's Exorcist), Deer Lady (Reservation Dogs), Elora Danan (Reservation Dogs), Adam (SAW), Carl (Skyman), Kris (Solaris), Kurt Kunkle (Spree), Sammi Curr and Eddie (Trick or Treat), Bitch Cat (V/H/S/94),

[dr-nero-is-god]

all three of the neros for the ask game :))

THANK YOU but knowing that you are a fellow nero appreciator I feel we are simply 🤝 on this matter

nathaniel nero

one aspect about them i love

I love how suave he is. If we were doing a live action film, some type of Jeff Goldblum or Robert Di Niro (lol) BUT ACTUALLY I JUST CHANGED MY MIND BECAUSE actually I would cast TIM CURRY and he would be a BEAUTIFUL HORNY GRANDPA and we would all be 10% more gay after encountering him.

one aspect i wish more people understood about them

He is both charming and insufferable in equal parts. I had a grandfather who was much like him, to be honest (or perhaps it is just a quality of beloved old men). But I think there is something enneagram-4-ish in Nathaniel that is that he spends so much time individuating from everyone else and getting wrapped up in being The Architect that results in something more depressing and self-isolating than he might be willing to admit out loud.

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have about this character

out of everyone in the series, nathaniel has had the most sex! this is partially because of his age. this is also because he is a whore.

as well as

one character i love seeing them interact with

Obviously it's Max. I love how much they do NOT get along. Obsessed with them both.

one character i wish they would interact with/interact with more

Laura. No explanation just vibes!

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have that involve them and one other character

I 100% believe that Nathaniel has had other children and grandchildren by random women who he is no longer in touch with. And he can't tell Max because he will a) get yelled at and b) potentially have to get in contact with those people to assuage Max's Attitude About the Situation. So the two or three secret families he has created over the years have an absent father and they resent him for perfectly ordinary reasons, never knowing that their absent father is kind of a big shot.

maximilian nero

one aspect about them i love

He's my best friend, he's my pal, he's my homeboy, my rotten soldier, my sweet cheese, my good time boy. What's not to love?

one aspect i wish more people understood about them

He would kill the person he loves most in the world. He wants to save everyone, and will try, and when he can't, he will kill them, because that's the person he has to be, because no one else can be.

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have about this character

It's pretty much my headcanon that he's secretly nice which more or less influences all my writing about him. Is it correct? Nah. But that's okay. :)

as well as

one character i love seeing them interact with

mmm! raven. lol.

one character i wish they would interact with/interact with more

Diabolus!!! nero darkdoom prequel WHEN

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have that involve them and one other character

He and the Contessa would go on holiday together before the enemy times and would like go to wine tastings and museums and things and would get dreadfully bored with one another and yet SOMEHOW they never actually stopped doing it.

raven

one aspect about them i love

I love how much is unspoken in her character. She never says she loves Nero because she doesn't need to. She never needs to say that she's loyal to Otto, or to Diabolus, or to anyone, because she doesn't need to. She doesn't need words to be the woman she is which is frankly insane in a book which is, as you may know, primarily consisting OF words.

one aspect i wish more people understood about them

Raven is truly the H.I.V.E. Barbie. This is all to our universal benefit.

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have about this character

She has a dark sense of humor and she's a little rude and she doesn't often make a good first impression. She accepted this when she was not a teenager anymore.

as well as

one character i love seeing them interact with

Diabolus!!!!! THEY ARE BEST FRIENDS OKAY

one character i wish they would interact with/interact with more

SHELBY. WHERE HAS ALL THE FEMINISM GONE AND WHY CAN'T THESE TWO HAVE ANY

one (or more) headcanon(s) i have that involve them and one other character

Raven is really quite fond of playing jackbox games with the c4. Party games completely blow her mind and she especially likes Tee KO because to her it is the most insane thing that children play with and she never got to.

Damn who is the new blorbo, share with the class. He sounds interesting.

Aaaah sorry or the late reply, didn't get the ask notification on mobile 🙄

Now, about this new blorbo *cracks knuckles* Like I was saying on that other post, I recently rewatched the 10th Kingdom, a kinda obscure 5 parts mini series that I'd watched once as a kid when it aired on tv, and asolutely adored. I then spent the next two decades desperately searching for a piece of media that would make me feel the exact same way that this show had at the time. Also could not for the life of me remember the title, and I had half convinced myself that this whole series was a fever dream and that it didn't actually exist. Skip to a couple of weeks ago, where I saw a random tumblr post mentioning this series, awakening all my memories of it, then I found that all 5 parts of it were available for free on youtube. Thus began my obsession with the 10th Kingdom again, and more specifically with Wolf. My best friend. My pal. My homeboy. My rotten soldier. My sweet cheese. My good time boy. Wolf is the love interest of our main girl. He's also a werewolf. Half-wolf. I don't know. He's got a tail. He sometimes grows fangs. His eyes can change colors. He howls when he's sad, he growls when he's angry/horny, he scratches his head, he tries to cook grandmothers, he says "huff puff". He's basically the big bad wolf from fairy tales but played by a normal looking guy. Yeah cause I haven't mentioned it yet, but the 10th Kingdom is just a seven hours long love letter/parody of fairy tales. Think similar to Shrek. Or Once Upon a Time. With over the top acting, terrible special effects, and a plot that's either very dumb and silly, or rips your heart out, there is no inbetween. Also it's very horny. Again especially with Wolf. I cannot overstate how not subtle the show is with this, from the acting to the dialogue. When I watched it as a kid, these parts completely flew over my head though, so I still consider it a family friendly show. Anyway, this show also has prolematic elements (my main beef with it is that the only POC actors we see in it play trolls. The trolls are very cool though), and just in general, it's very much a product of its time. However, I still love it, and I think it's worth giving it a try, especially since it's all on youtube for free. Sorry, this ended up being more of a propaganda post for the 10th Kingdom in general 😅 But yeah, Scott Cohen as Wolf really did a great job making him a compelling and likeable character. He manages to be creepy and funny and touching, and you can tell he was having a lot of fun in this role. I lowkey wish I could draw a hookdust 10th Kingdom au but the vibes are so different, I don't think it would work. I guess Wolf and James are both tormented guys with a dark and destructive side to them. But James is a manipulative prick, whereas Wolf is completely unable to pretend.

Dracula Daily - May 8

We got a new Dracula Daily today! (I was on my computer here at work when I got the email so I read over it just now lol.) Let's just jump right into it.

So May 8th has our best friend, our pal, our homeboy, our rotten soldier, our sweet cheese, our good time boy Mr Harker continue to be a guest at Castle Dracula. It's interesting to note that he just got there the day before, but after seeing the Count react almost violently to the sight of blood, he is quick to assume that he is a prisoner here.

A little dramatic much?

Even after having already read Dracula in book, this attitude change in Harker is... strange to say the least.

Regardless. What was I saying?

Oh yeah. Harker immediately starts to act like a caged animal and wants out. Will he escape? Find out next time on Dracula Ball Z Kai!
