[everythinandanything]

Adaptations: "Dracula is about sexual repression!!!!"

Everyone who has, y'know, read the damn book: "It's about friendship!!!!"

Dracula fans on Tumblr: "And bisexuality!!!!"

“And when you say my name,

may it never give you pain.

I don’t wanna go

but it’s time to leave;

you’ll be on my mind,

my destiny”

FINALLY FINISHED MY DRACULA CHARACTER LINEUP !!!

It's everyone's favorite vampire slaying cowboy!! 🤠 I finished reading Dracula (1897) the other day, and no one’s surprised - he was my favorite while reading. I understand turning down the Asylum Doctor, but Lucy was absolutely off her gourd when she rejected Quincey P. Morris. What a man. Mr. Texas himself. Here's how I imagined him while reading. (Also there’s no way to tell from these drawings, but he is supposed to be the shortest out of all the guys 🙃)

I may draw more Dracula characters based on how I envisioned them if I have time! I hope all of you have a great new year!

love how Jonathan dead said “if Mina doesn’t survive me I want all of my worldly possessions to go to these other four dudes in my vampire-hunting boy band whom I met a week ago.”

that, my friends, is shared trauma at its finest.

The best bit about Re: Dracula is the spaghetti western style music that follows Quincy around.

AS IT SHOULD

[drac-kool-aid]

The comedic timing of Jack's diary entry coming first being like "I'm depressed and not feeling up to much, so I'm going to double down on working myself to the bone so I don't have to think about it" and the Quincy's letter coming straight after "Jack's going to join us at our campfire! There's going to be alcohol! We're going to talk out our feelings in a safe space surrounded by friends!"

Quincey my beloved! He’s such a gentleman, such a charming cowboy, I want him 🤭

Love, love, love the expressing differences between all the three suitors on how they present their entries, as well how it immediatly tells us their first characterization points.

Ebb tide in appetite to-day. Cannot eat, cannot rest, so diary instead. Since my rebuff of yesterday I have a sort of empty feeling; nothing in the world seems of sufficient importance to be worth the doing.... As I knew that the only cure for this sort of thing was work, I went down amongst the patients. (Mem., under what circumstances would I not avoid the pit of hell?) Omnia Romæ venalia sunt. Hell has its price! verb. sap. 

Somber in tone, and defeated in spirit. Starts with circumstances that led Seward ignore his own health in favor of burying himself with work. What continues is a seemly methodical description of a patient, yet is unprofessional and dark as Jack admits to want to experiment with Renfield while he is in this mental state.

On top of all of this message being recorded in a phonograph instead of a written diary. It tells that Jack does not prefer to write, maybe because this train of thoughts is going too fast to be put properly on part, or maybe by writing Jack needs to think more about what he has to express, which would end up with censoring some parts of himself.

My dear Art,— We've told yarns by the camp-fire in the prairies; and dressed one another's wounds after trying a landing at the Marquesas; and drunk healths on the shore of Titicaca. There are more yarns to be told, and other wounds to be healed, and another health to be drunk. Won't you let this be at my camp-fire to-morrow night? There will only be one other, our old pal at the Korea, Jack Seward. Yours, as ever and always, QUINCEY P. MORRIS.

A story telling cadence that indicates how Quincey seems to prefer tale narration when talking. Very personal moments described before an invitation to warm up the idea a campfire after the succesful proposal of Arthur, and the mention of liquor plants the idea of how this space will not be privy with secrets. Including Jack to connect the three of them as friends, and a implication of Quincey knowing of what kind of state Seward might be in to invite him.

Concluding with a very romantic in nature farewell, and the format being the humble written letter. A communication device that has never failed, and is simple to hold Quincey's words with care.

Count me in every time. I bear messages which will make both your ears tingle. ART.

It's polite, yet informal in tone in a way which tells how Arthur considers Quincey to be a very close friend. The familiarity in the expression "will make both your ears tingle" implies that this is not the first time for Arthur to tell gossip, less ones that could be considered "saucy" in the eyes of people outside of their friend circle.

And lastly, Arthur's 16 words message was sent via telegram, a very expensive message service that charged per word, which tells that mister Holmwood is... ✨💵RICH💵✨

Take his heart to Texas…

I just got this

Edition of Dracula, and look what I found in the introduction!!!!!!!!!

[remembersunflowers]

Really love when there’s a new bro to the suitor squad and they vouch for each other by going oh yeah he saved my life once, out on the prairie, or out in this adventure or sucked gangrene from my wound, besties forever

I actually don't think I'm going to have time for drawing more dracula stuff anytime soon, what with all my comms and stuff, but here's another drawing from yesterday.

I understand that his death was a compliment to his character, but what if I LOVE HIM???? What about that huh??????

[ibrithir-was-here]

But do you have a Quincey M. design? I don’t know if you’ve drawn him or not but I looked and couldn’t find it so I’m sorry to bother you if you do have one and I’m just missing it

You’re all good! I actually realized today I’d never drawn either Quincey M or Lucy W, so here ya go!

Happy First Mention of Quincy Morris in Dracula Day !!!
