Born to be a mysterious countess living in a big dark castle.. Forced to be an underpaid babysitter living in a prissy neighborhood.💔

She's just like me fr

(this actually describes me to a T except for the meat eating part bc I have a red meat intolerance -_-)

You have Vampiric Blood running through your veins. However, that blood comes from quite a few generations back, so all it really means is that you like eating meat, can’t swim, get mildly annoyed by religious architecture, and get sunburned really easily.

So I know many other people more eloquent than me have already written about why "necromancer/cavalier are gender categories in TLT" doesn't work for them (cf @liesmyth). But one aspect of this reading that has always severely given me the ick is that imo, once you start to map gender onto "necromancer" and "cavalier," it frames necromancers as both the "feminine" gender (by contemporary irl standards) and the oppressor class. In ways that feel uncomfortably close to an MRA perspective on gender when the categories are "feminine" and "masculine."

If necromancer and cavalier are read as gender categories in TLT, then necromancers are literally "the weaker sex," smaller and less physically capable than their cavaliers. Instead, their power is drawn from witchcraft; their exploitativeness comes from their affinity with a supernatural force which is antithetical to life itself. They dominate their cavaliers by taking advantage of their cavaliers' devotion and by leeching off their cavaliers' strength; in the most extreme cases (lyctorhood), they devour their cavaliers like a vampiress or a silent movie villainness. (Which would be hot, I guess, if this reading wasn't also incredibly serious about reading TLT as a deconstruction of empire and structures of domination and hierarchy?)

And to me, all of this resonates with all those age-old paranoid fantasies about femininity as the gender category that's inherently more likely to be in league with the devil, you know? It makes TLT look like an incel treatment of "La Belle Dame Sans Merci."

broke boys don't deserve no pussy

I know that's right!

And here we have Deema, deadliest pirate queen of the seven seas.

Once the most feared Moroccan marauder of her time, she’s been forcibly retired for the last few centuries due to her vampiric condition (it’s pretty hard to be out at sea when you can’t survive the sunlight 😕). Instead, she now spends her nights running the vampiric council, going from buccaneer to bureaucrat with surprising ease. Guess one form of beheading is just as good as another, though she often misses just how good a sword feels in her hand.

Power and presence all the way, she runs the vampire elite with a firm grip and a deadly demeanor, though if you’re in her inner circle you may be lucky enough to see her with her guard down and laughing it up. But if you are, you better know damn well not to cross her, lest that laugh becomes murderous…

I made a vampire simself (jupneko the Esteemed Vampiress aka “jupneko Esteemed Vamp” cause you can’t have names that long lolol) for Halloween!

Ofc I made the mistake of editing her while she was a human, so I had to move her in somewhere to use cheats to turn her for those fang-pics.

So of course she immediately ended up paused standing on an empty lot in Strangerville during a thunderstorm like a fucking punk. lmao

Reloading coming out of CAS (even though it was still paused) she had some feelings about this. (Reactions unrealistic btw bc IRL I’d have the stormchaser trait lol)

variations of lonely vampiress are my whole look. i mean, these are actual pictures of me, i'm that dramatic irl

Seeing a girl dressed as if she were a village witch or a lonely vampiress is like: pls let’s hold hands and study literature until we both die because you’re perfect.

Day 24- Vampire Abbey (pt2- Completed)

Abbey is REALLY getting into the role of vampiress with open arms. Her colour body palette also really adds to the realism. In IRL AUs she probably messes with people trying to fool them into thinking that she’s a bamf vamp.

Definitely waiting till the next day to finish was worth it to get such excellent results in this pic.

Today (day, I know😖😖) I went outside for like.. a minute?? And I immediately got a sunburn!? It hurts so bad.😭😭

[celestial-vampiress]

Went to the dentist today, fangs hurt now.💔

Vampire nail tech, anyone? Starting out with short gel nails and I think I did a good job.🦇

(not actually a nail tech, this was just us being silly.)
