Wild connection but you’re absolutely right, autistic kings
I like Dexter because I love it when characters who don’t have feelings have feelings about not having feelings

Silmarillion sketches, once again, ha 💎💎💎
"Then Morgoth hurled aloft Grond, the Hammer of the Underworld, and swung it down like a bolt of thunder. But Fingolfin sprang aside, and Grond rent a mighty pit in the earth, whence smoke and fire darted."
"But Fëanor followed him, and at the door of the king’s house he stayed him; and the point of his bright sword he set against Fingolfin’s breast. ‘See, half-brother!’ he said. ‘This is sharper than thy tongue."
"...for though at great feasts Fëanor would wear them, blazing on his brow, at other times they were guarded close, locked in the deep chambers of his hoard in Tirion. For Fëanor began to love the Silmarils with a greedy love, and grudged the sight of them to all save to his father and his seven sons..."

1400. Adam, Samuel and Peter managed to kill their archvampire, and are now free. They decide to seize this newlyfound freedom, and do everything they can, for all the time they have now, promising to meet other regularly to give news.
1885. Samuel has been a doctor for centuries, signing anonymous medicine essays, giving all his years of knowledge to humans. Peter gets interested by everything: he worked every possible job (his favorite being journalism since the beginning of the century) and gets bored as soon as he masters something.
Adam has nothing: no passion, no job, no hobby he didn't abandon. He has money he gives artists to entertain one's talent but his own. But Adam wants to exist. He doesn't want to get bored too quick, and can't comprehend accepting being anonymous. He wants something, for him, a proof he once existed.
And something new (here since a couple decades already) starts to tickle his attention: photography.
Hi! This is a new AU I'm developing. There is more to the story, but I'm not giving everything away at once 🤫 I've watched Sinners last month and well. I have been obssessed.
I've always liked vampires stories, but I have never write one that truly compelled me, and here it is : bored vampire. Pathetic vampire. When eternal life makes everything die too quickly. I like pathetic characters, failed characters, scared characters, and I put a lot of myself in it. Promise, it is not sad, the way I see it. It is just how life goes 🙏

watching the captain america movies for a project and literally stuckys we were all so right. why is the Only meaningful relationship in the entire mcu the most batshit insane hundred-year love story you've ever seen between two guys from brooklyn new yawk who only had each other. and who went to war. and who made eyes at each other in dark bars. and who were forced to exist as tools and weapons and propagandists rather than men. like what the Actual fuck was happening there

I wish Samantha had gotten a full quest, insane to design such a detailed npc and only use her once

I love VTM but I think my least favorite thing about the way they do the embrace is that the banes and all the bad things are supposed to take hold immediately. These are vampires. Theyre immortal. Let it take time, and it will be so much more horrifying.
Let the new Nosferatu scratch their head two nights in and a chunk of hair falls out. They look in the mirror three nights later and realize how much thinner their skin has gotten, and they touch their jaw carefully, and a strip of skin peels away to reveal the jaw underneath.
Let the new Malkavian be so so so paranoid because they KNOW whats coming, but by a month in, nothing seems to have happened. And theyre so worried, but theyre hoping against the universe that please, maybe they'll be the exception. Maybe they wont fall to the voices. And then they get home and talk to their friend about their worries, and after a little while, they feel relieved. The friend helps, so they keep talking to them. A few months go by and they are happy that they were worried over nothing, and they never even realize theyve been talking to the walls this whole time.
Let the new Ventrue have to figure out their blood limitation themselves. Their first few nights or weeks, they can drink whatever, but slowly the curse sets in. They drink some blood and immediately puke it up. They drink another type and break out in hives. Another sends them into torpor. But they HAVE to keep going. They have to find what they CAN drink, because until they do, they'll feel nothing but hunger and pain and rage and suffering. And the longer it takes to find it, the worse the wrong ones will be
Let the banes take time to take hold! I think thats significantly more interesting than everything just happening all at once all in one night, especially since these are immortal beings we're talking about. The horror of the vampire is supposed to be that all of the suffering is eternal. Let this take some time too.
