I feel like a thing we don’t talk about enough in the context that Jack LIVES in the asylum is: If Lucy had accepted his proposal, was he going to bring her back to live there with him???
Like, I grant you it’s fully possible he was planning to buy a perfectly normal house with a proverbial white picket fence, but this is Jack “brought a lancet to propose” Seward, and I think it’s just as likely that he either hadn’t thought this through, or else thinks it’s Perfectly Normal Behavior to bring your brand new wife, a sheltered society girl, back to your asylum to share your Brooding Goth Asylum Lifestyle.
Would their kids have been raised there?? Not just in any asylum, but the asylum with security fiascos second only to Arkham? The asylum where one of his patients successfully ran into his study with a knife and stabbed him???
Obsessed with the idea of Renfield escaping for the 159603th time and Jack having a mild heart attack when he finds him in the kid’s room, but Renfield is just holding Baby Seward very gently and singing “The Itsy Bitsy Spider” (or as it was known back then, I kid you not, “The Blooming Bloody Spider”) while the two of them play with an actual spider.

coming on here to say that my eyeballs are still feeling lobotomised and my brain is utter mush, hence the dramatic pause in content within the last week. i'll queue some things when my pain levels are more manageable.
but for now, i've mainly been going on long walks and listening to audiobooks. you can follow my reading journey here if you're into that sort of thing.

people always act shocked when I tell them how much sleep I need. like okay maybe I don’t want to live in pain. maybe I’d rather have 10-12 hours of life instead of 16 hours of misery

Headcanon:
Sometimes, Techno’s voices get too loud and he gets terrible migraines. Phil and Ranboo have to deal with him pretending he’s fine until he eventually accepts their help in the form of a health potion.
