Ok, I could have sworn I posted these but I can't seem to find them. So have some anxious/fearful Ericka and protective Drac. Much as I like Ericka being the confident one, I love the idea when she gets anxious or scared, Drac is her safe space and HE goes into chivalrous but scary protective mode to get whoever bothered her to back off.

narinder having the "naturally obedient" trait really really took me out when i got him tbh

I'm thinking about how Louis and Claudia both make the same fatal mistake in Paris (in albeit different situations). Louis assumes Armand is different *cough* he ain't white he french [...] he's different *cough* but we all know this already, I mostly wanted to point out Claudia's fatal mistake. She says it herself "I want to meet one, just one other vampire who isn't a goddamn bastard!" Which, is kinda impossible, but Claudia doesn't know that yet. What Claudia doesn't yet understand completely is that vampires don't just prey on humans, they prey on the weak. Including other vampires. Neither Louis nor Claudia know this at this point in the show. Claudia also assumes that these vampires are different. Both Louis and Claudia are being lulled into a false sense of security and whats worse is that since their relationship is so strained at this point neither believes the other when the say 'X is bad news' (Don't ruin this for me! That doesn't sound like him)

I don't blame Claudia for choosing the coven, because I know from experience how cults and similar organizations operate. I just want to point this out because I feel like people are acting like either Louis is completely culpable, or that Claudia deserved what happens because she made a mistake. When frankly I think both takes are boring and if true, poor writing. I actually think characters should make bad choices and that making bad choices is often better than them always making good choices, or having no choices at all.

If Angel and Angelus are two different beings why does Angel feel THAT GUILTY for the crimes of Angelus hm?????

Spike has his soul less than a year and yet when Robin tries to kill him for killing his mom Spike is like “I’m not that monster anymore your beef is with a creature that doesn’t exist”

Angel just tells Buffy he doesn’t kill humans since he got the soul (which is later even shown to be a lie lol) he never says anything along the lines of I’m not the monster who did those things anymore BECAUSE HE IS and playing the victim while still secretly being the villain is honestly just a whole different insidious kind of evil.

Angelus is a psychopath, Angel is a vulnerable narcissist which is just lower on the lack of empathy/using people for your own selfish gains scale but they’re on the same scale!!!! They share so many common characteristics just with different levels of severity

Like we all already knew it was all bullshit angel was spinning but just finding further evidence of all the ways his story is inconsistent around this

so, i guess i should probably clarify a bit about what curses i'm referencing and how i handle the creature aspect of until dawn because the two coincide so heavily.

to start, i like until dawn, as in i am a fan of until dawn, so i can love it for what it is while quietly correcting a few things. that being said, i actually like to take out a lot of what they've established to leave a more confusing narrative. a purposefully confusing narrative for both us and the characters.

something i like about horror is leaving some things unclarified, leaving the audience guessing, even leaving the characters wondering what just happened. it follows the idea that we aren't quite sure what we were dealing with ... but we had a hell of time along the way.

so, the curses: i split it into two ways — the land itself was already cursed, which i leave sort of vague, but that's what we see affecting people pre-disposed (the miners, for example) to this curse before the main cast comes into the picture.

additionally, the washington family already came "pre-cursed" of something else entirely; their greed (thus, their hunger — it's never enough). i'm more focusing on the washington family here than the overall lore, which i don't really want to start getting into and rewriting as a whole.

i leave it to imply that this could have either started with robert washington or already existed in their bloodline long before robert was even born. the culmination of the washington family coming to the mountain sort of "marked" this family for life.

even if they could escape their own generational curse, they can't escape what's been activated for them. there's a really great quote from bsi by elizabeth where she says "what i have done cannot be undone. i cannot stop what i have put into motion." <- i think that's very applicable here. the events of what has been done before them will continue to unfold long after them. this quote can literally be used for any of these characters, from robert to josh to matt to mike to any of them.

this is why, while hannah is experiencing a creature transformation (thus what we see), she is also suffering "a hunger" that pangs from her own cursed line — that hunger of greed, of envy, of needing more, and of doing anything to survive. she is a survivalist. hannah isn't just falling to something outside of her control, but also something internally imprinted on her DNA.

which is what i have also happen to josh in his creature!verse. a transfer, if you will. it makes sense that the good older brother should take the pain of his sister. they share this same curse, this same "source", thus the same possession (being possessed by their hunger, their own innate and taught need for more).

aesthetically, i like the idea of a body essentially starting to shift into a super predator — the teeth, the jointed limbs to run on all fours, more animalistic. it's the distorted corpse aspect i'm featuring, the thinning of the hair, the loss of skin pigmentation (as the user has technically died, more they do not control their own body, thus it's almost vampiric), glassy eyes (thus shifting their vision into that predator vision we see in-game), the lengthening of the nails — which is where josh is sort "caught" between the two, once again ushering him into a new era of duality (as duality is a huge character arc of his, basically his whole arc arguably). again, i'd argue this is almost bordering into vampire territory. just not twilight vampires and more ... 30 days of night vampires? almost?

i've considered if they can even go out in sunlight, we only really see them at night ever, but that would be stretching more into comparing what lore was established over what i'd like to keep or edit. i'm not here to rewrite until dawn, just to be clear. i do have some inferences that josh is sunlight-avoidant in that verse, though.

as for why or where or even when this curse began? we don't know. that's the beauty of it. we're just as clueless as the cast, which also would make it much more difficult to fight them, which goes along with relying a lot on that diary for information. it's a transference of basically "here's what works, what doesn't, here's what we know" kind of vibes. trial and error. but as for the source? again, it's a cursed land. no one from "that time" is alive to give good faith one way or the other, so i imagine it's just a lot of rumor and speculation.

they're called creatures, monsters, and sometimes my characters might even call them vampires because ... they have no idea what is even going on. they're ignorant, and that's kind of the point imo. even josh's family is shown to disregard the land to build their dream vacation home. not even their real home, a vacation home. so ... in general? this cast? is not made up of respectful people. just look at how they treat and talk to each other if you need more evidence of that.

More fun with Bloo's love of vampires, this time Mavis shows Bloo how to pull off a TRUE vampire scare while playfully imitating her father.
