#what a fucking podcast

[iwhoneverbelievedinwar]

I FINALLY finished today's episode of re:Dracula and.

First of all I read Dracula last year but something about this version got me tearing up. Jonathan's devotion! When Mina says she's unclean and mustn't touch Jonathan and he just takes her in his arms and says that may God bring greater punishment upon him if he ever lets anything stand between them. That just. I can't help remembering that people were saying Mina shouldn't have married Jonathan when he was sick. This just shows that it was right, because Jonathan would have done the exact same thing if the roles were reversed!!

And, how can I not mention the quote that they chose for the title.

"To one thing I have made up my mind: if we find out that Mina must be a vampire in the end, then she shall not go into that unknown and terrible land alone. I suppose it is thus that in old times one vampire meant many: just as their hideous bodies could only rest in sacred earth, so the holiest love was the recruiting sargent for their ghastly ranks."

I know. Everyone has talked about it better than me already. But again it made me tear up. Jonathan is willing to become the horror just so Mina won't go into it alone. They're a package deal: God will either take both of them up into heaven or none. They love each other so much it's making me insane.

And, of course. What the fuck was that song (affectionate) (positive) (frothing at the mouth but like in an appreciative way)? like. Truly brings me back to the good ol beginning of Dracula, where Jonathan is in a horror novel and Dracula is in the Beauty and the Beast. The choice of having Dracula address Jonathan! He has just assaulted Mina and threatened them all, but yeah he's absolutely obsessed with this white haired anime kid who slammed a shovel into his face. The whole choice of lyrics really gave me nbc Hannibal vibes which I suppose isn't that odd, considering Hannibal is a gothic horror romance (no I will not be taking criticism). The music is absolutely lovely, and of course Karim Kronfli just delivers. The lyrics are what's sending me into a spiral.

the thing about trying to recommend fiction podcasts to someone who isn't familiar with them is that not only are so so many genres represented but also the level of production can fall anywhere from "basically an audiobook" to "major motion picture minus the pictures"

"I wrote in my diary to never be horrible to Dream again, it's not worth it, because I didn't like when he was mad with me, it made me too sad" it's a quote I would expect from c!tommy during the Exile arc, not from Tommyinnit, the content creator, talking about how Dream, the content creator, treated him when he was 15/16

Something about Jacobi’s clone in “time to kill” really messes me up. Because, like, after you listen to the episode where you find out that Lovelace isn’t the original Lovelace, we also find out that the clones don’t actually know that they aren’t the original person. The Jacobi clone was completely convinced that he was the original, so when the others left him outside, his last thought was probably that his friends had just made the worst possible mistake they could have made in that situation, that they had left him, the real Jacobi, to die and now they’re all in danger because there is something else that isn’t him on the ship with them. He died thinking that theres this thing that’s taking his place. This is the worse case scenario and there was nothing he could do about it. On the other hand, the real Jacobi, (assuming that the real Jacobi was the one inside the ship the whole time), had to listen to himself die. And i bet that after he finds out about how Lovelace is an alien, he thinks to himself, what if he isn’t the real Jacobi, that the real Jacobi died when they left him outside, and that he is the alien and just doesn’t know it. Because how could he know that? Lovelace didn’t, and he would never have any solid proof that he doesn’t know either. I bet it drives him a bit crazy, if he constantly has that thought going through his head.

I dont know. I think about this quite often.

no thoughts only michael who was sacrificed to the thing he feared the most by a person he deeply trusted unaware that her plan was always going go result in his death at best all for nothing because the rituals do not. fucking. work. in the first place. him becoming the distortion could’ve been avoided with no consequence. just an Archivist on a warpath, and a yellow door
