Got too passionate and hit tag limit on accident, so here's some Dr Carmilla images <3

PROPAGANDA

Getwin Mittlemind:

A rare Mad social scientist. has also made himself heavily cybernetic, including a memory backup so he can be revived if killed, which he has done many times.

Dr Carmilla:

K so I dnt remember if she has an actual doctorate but if she did it would be revoked very fast She’s an immortal space vampire lesbian who after some toxic yuri created her children to also be immortal after they died (no they’re not actually related but I doubt that matters much) and then made them a part of her band She was thrown out of an airlock by one of her children and iirc she just fucked off never to be seen again until she is alluded to in The Ignominious Demise Of Dr. Pritchard but e never outright saying she’s there so there’s a bit of fan interpretation when it comes to it She also after leaving the mechs starts a different band but alas no one really talks about that one Timelines when it comes to the mechs are messy and so are they and so is Carmilla and she deserves to w

#This Carmilla description causes me physical pain and is generally factually inaccurate but Carmilla IS actually a wonderful mad scientist #and I love her #It ......#AUGH #NO #she isn't alluded to in The Ignominious Demise of Dr. Pilchard (<- propaganda submitted spelled it wrong)#but Pilchard is a character who hunted down her children because the immortality she created was that powerful and fabled #and it was her LAB on the ship that he went into after she had long since left it #only the experiments she did were SO dangerous and there were SO many she left that the ending lyrics of the song are #Pilchard begging *something* to get away and to stay back until petering out with a garbled scream #but the actual final line (spoken word‚ not sung) is one of the immortals saying they never saw him again #(they being anyone among the nine immortals of the crew)#which says a lot because they're Immortal and this whole thing goes down on their Home #So they eiher never went into the lab afterwards (unlikely bc one of them offers to take Pilchard there in the song) or whatever work #Carmilla even just left behind was so bad literally no part of Pilchard wasn't unused for Something and/or recognizable as him #And #Carmilla DID get thrown out of an airlock by those immortals‚ but that happened multiple times and her final leaving was unrelated #Things that aren't in the propaganda too:#1) She publicly drugs someone with a mysterious substance (probably made by her) and does it with such ease she probably does so often #(cheerily says it's sleep time while doing so which is. iconic)#2) It's implied she harnessed a sort of eldritch void power to make the mechanisms/organs/body parts that give immortality #(largely because of the rainbow sheen that is used nowhere but for these mechanisms getting damaged and this eldritch being)#while there is another 50+ minute album by the immortal space crew about the senseless brutality and horrirs that come with ANY contact to #that eldritch being #And they're noted as not even risking coming into contact with it despite many other things they've tested their immortality with #(ex. getting trapped in sun for a century)#3) Okay not actually mad-scientist but it annoys me that the submitter either didn't submit a photo or submitted a generic album cover #Frankenstein doesn't feature Carmilla even remotely and frankly it'd still not have been great even if it was #the similar-looking Tales To Be Told album cover that features The Ignominious Demise of Dr. Pilchard because #Because Carmilla isn't directly in ANY mechanisms album!!!! She has a bunch of her own music!!!!! and TONS of photos and official artwork!!
