Madeleine & Claudia INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE | 2.06 Daniel & Armand THE QUEEN OF THE DAMNED, Anne Rice
Just watched Annihilation high out of my mind for the first time and I feel like I'm in a fever dream right now
I loved everything about it. I love how uncaring Area X is, how it lacks purpose. How the bear is not a bear and it won't eat the body because maybe it doesn't understand the purpose of eating anymore. How Area X is natural. How there's not one unnatural thing about it, actually. How it says your need to control is unnatural. That you will self-destruct and you will change and you will create. There WILL be change. There WILL be creation. You ARE part of the whole and the whole is part of YOU. How there is no evil here but people are still dying and everybody is so afraid all of the time and I get it
And then they hit you with the
"It was... dreamlike" "Nightmarish?" "Not always. Sometimes it was beautiful"
and fuck, isn't everything?

FMA is fascinating because there aren't many works about what it means to be an atheist and a heretic to a god that you can not only see, but who has personally snatched body parts off of your living body and made fun of you for it.
We do not talk enough about the 2014 series Penny Dreadful.
THIS SHOW was my Roman Empire. WHY IS IT NOT MORE POPULAR??? Especially on tumblr!!
Eva Green???? Josh Hartnett as a bisexual werewolf??? Reeve Carney as pansexual Dorian Gray???? BILLIE PIPER??? A BOOK ACCURATE PORTRAYAL OF FRANKENSTEIN'S MONSTER????????
Don't even get me started on the fucking INCREDIBLE soundtrack by Abel Korzeniowski!
The writing is so fucking good, the characters are amazing, the tone and setting are SO COOL, and it brings together so many classical texts (Frankenstein, Jekyll and Hyde, Dorian Gray, and more) in such a seemless fashion? And it's openly queer, too????
It has a 91% on Rotten Tomatoes, if you want any more reasons to watch it. UGH PLEASE I WANT TO SCREAM ABOUT THIS SHOW WITH SOMEONEEEE
I need to rewatch iiiiit
looooove girls with a little special interest
Mina, just casually reciting the exact trains from which station leave at which times in order to get to wherever when possible is important to me.
somehow, in some way or another, it's always about hunger
what reprehensible thing will i romanticise in poetry today
I love how over 90% of the Frankenstein Fandom decided to name Frankenstein's Monster "Adam Frankenstein" because he refferred to himself as the "Adam of your labours" at one point. Let's keep it that way.
When Emily Brontë said, "You said I killed you — haunt me, then! The murdered do haunt their murderers. I believe — I know that ghosts have wandered on earth. Be with me always — take any form — drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul!”. And when Sheridan Le Fanu said, "You will think me cruel, very selfish, but love is always selfish. How jealous I am you cannot know. You must come with me, loving me, to death; or else hate me and still come with me, and hating me through death and after. There is no such thing as indifference in my apathetic nature.”
ok so the thing about carmilla (1872) is that carmilla has probably done the "oh i'm so in love with you" shtick with so many girls that she has devoured. it's textbook predatory lesbianism and 19th century fear of the queer, or monstrous sexuality as jack halberstam puts it in skin shows.
but what if carmilla did love those girls? what if laura is not just one in many victims of carmilla, but an actual object of love? after all, vampirism is often a perversion of desire, and oh what twisted love is that of literally consuming each and every one of your partners?
and that's not even to say of how long carmilla put off devouring laura. she fed off of so many villagers and killed so many villagers before -- what very well may be resorting to -- laura. can we say that carmilla is even protective of laura in this regard? that carmilla would put off feeding for so long to protect laura from herself?
of course she's a predator. of course she is savoring her meal. of course she uses laura's love as a way to guard herself from suspicion. but i don't think it was all a game. i don't think that when carmilla said, "you must come with me, loving me, to death; or else hate me and still come with me," she was merely speaking as a predator. after all, what simple predator asks for their prey to come with them to death?
"I could be your Lestat. Your Claudia, but better"
Daniel Molloy you are soooo FUNNY I would've killed you on the spot lmao
It's kind of underrated on how everyone was 100 percent sure Loras was going to commit regicide the second he saw Joffrey abuse Margaery, so the rest of his family had to hurry up and plot a murder before Loras could become a kingslayer. Aemon the dragonknight could never

The Bloofer Lady lures a young child into her thrall in the dead of night.
from the Milwaukee Ballet's production of Michael Pink's Dracula Luz San Miguel as The Bloofer Lady
Just watched La La Land for the first time and if it had won the Oscar over Moonlight I would've made the news
im considering harassing the author of that one the handmaiden/claudeleine fanfic for another update
Aeron: "Men fish the sea, dig in the earth, and die. Women birth children in blood and pain, and die. Night follows day. The winds and tides remain. The islands are as our god made them."
Some scenes for the prompt "Home" for twoweeksoftheon
(The scene with Aeron hit me, when I reread. We often fault Theon for his homecoming, for failing to get to know the people and find allies first. But one of the first things he does on the Iron Islands is in fact ask for advice and information in full humility, from someone he remembers as potentially helpful. Aeron isn't.)
"Do you not yet comprehend the wicked secret of the immortal? All age and die, save you. All rot and fall to dust, save you. Any child you bear becomes a crone and perishes before your eyes. Any lover withers and shrinks into incontinence and bent, toothless senility. While you, only you, never age. Never tire. Never fade. Alone. But after a time you’ll lose the desire for passion entirely, for connection with anyone. Like a muscle that atrophies from lack of use. And one day you’ll realize you’ve become like them. Beautiful and dead. You have become a perfect, unchanging portrait of yourself." -Dorian Gray, Penny Dreadful
Here's what i wanted to show you. Rothschild's slipper. The rarest orchid on Earth, and thus the most expensive. It's only found in one place, a particular mountain in Borneo. It can take up to 15 years to bloom. All that time, perfecting itself. A lifetime for six perfect flowers.
PENNY DREADFUL | S01E04 Demimonde
I wish I could experience Penny Dreadful for the first time again. There really isn't anything quite like it
