Doomed By The Narrative.

Doomed By The Narrative.

Doomed by the narrative.

They doomed themselves and each other. They treated each other like monsters and believed themselves to be monsters.

The "monster or human" narrative is one of the central conflicts of the story. Were we made wrong, or did we lose our souls somewhere along the way? What happens when you believe you are a monster?

Before I worry anyone unduly, my well-being is, well, quite well. A reason I hesitate to post my writing is that I'm worried I'll make people concerned - yes, a lot of it is based on experience, but it's gothic fiction and I paint it darker than it is. Also, I have a gremlin in my brain that screams, "MAKE IT WEIRDER!" A weird imagination is the side effect of growing up feeding on novels, don't read too much into it.

Welp, I suppose we'll soon know just how weird it is, if I don't chicken out and actaully release the creepy lil creature into the internet.

Okay, So, My Desk Collapsed Three Times Today, And OF COURSE Of All The Things To Fall Off And Smash,

Okay, so, my desk collapsed three times today, and OF COURSE of all the things to fall off and smash, it had to be a bottle of masking glue, and let me tell you that thing stinks.

When that was dealt with, my friend woke up and there was a lot of unawake texting and I started hyperfixating on a joint venture - all of this to say, I don't have the faculty to deal with my writing but you can have a look at the bits that are already there:

I dunno which chapter that is, help yourselves I guess I'm Undead.

Thank you, @greenfinchwriter , for tagging me in this tag game! I know we're supposed to reblog, but I can't hide long posts when they're shown on the "my posts" tab and that sometimes gets my goat, so I hope it's all right if I make a separate post!

Last TV show: Arcane

Last movie: Hammer's Dracula... I think? I've completely lost all sense of time.

Last book: A vampire romance in which the vampire, I kid you not, conjures cheesecakes.

Last thing I searched: Just checked. It's "bub meaning." I wish I could say it's "Sherlock Harpoon," but that was this morning.

Sweet/savoury/spicy: You are asking the gremlin who puts sugar in soup. Sweet.

Relationship status: extremely occupied with matchmaking my original characters.

Favourite drink: Cocoa, tea, soup, blood

Songs playing 24/7: "Judas" by Lady Gaga, "Love me normally" by Will Wood

Current favourite character: Van Helsing and Mina Harker (specifically from the Dracula book)

Fun activities I wish to get into: I want to try animating softwares, but it'll have to wait until I have a computer again. My antique PC is sadly ignoring me.

Last video game: Good grief, this ancient Undead hasn't played one in ages. Probably the Halloween game on Google Doodles?

Anyway, I drew Sherlock with a harpoon ages ago.

Oh, yes, I forgot to tag! @frommarshtheycome @windforkthewriter @t4z-0n-p4wz @whyisthereacentaur

Thanks for the tag @achildsfirstsorrow @frommarshtheycome and @angel-with-paper-wings , I'm honoured!

Last song: "A Milion Gruesome Ways to Die"

Favourite colour: I grew up among Plantone books and paper samples, there's no way I can choose ONE, my inner amateur graphic designer will curse me.

Last movie: Nosferatu 1922. Made my family watch it, they showed me a puppet from hell that supposedly looks like Orlok, and now I can't unsee it.

Last TV show: It's been a minute, Arcane...?

Sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet>savoury>spicy

Relationship status: On my way to be a crazy cat lady. Sans cats, but I'll fix that.

Last thing I googled: "Do people still say hip?" My inner Victorian is showing, isn't it?

Current obsession: Drawing things that make me anxious into as silly vampurr comics

Looking forward to: Like ACFS, I'm waiting for Del Toro's Frankenstein, finishing my vampurr book, posting my writing (at last), and menacing my friends when they wake up.

I think we've gotten into the PoTO artists' end of Tumblr, so we're probably double-tagging like mad, but I'll do it anyway. @leader-of-grandys @blackghostm2o @wowyzowy3 @lokislynx @windforkthewriter @thedrawingduke @v-jack-v @vladimirsangel @blackforrestpunk (I already know you two but there's always "better")

10 people I want to get to know better

Omg thank you much for tagging me! @dearwormw00d :3

Last song: You're not alone, Allison Russel

Favorite colour: dark green

Last movie: Lord of the rings: The fellowship of the ring

Last tv show: The Gilded Age

Sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet>Savory>Spicy

Relationship status: Single

Last thing i googled: hand holding pencil brush reference

Current obsession: One Piece, Nosferatu, Ethel Cain, my fem erik, Epic, Critical Role, studying the Enneagram again, Castlevania Nocture, The Apothecary Diaries, Witch Hat Atelier

Looking forward to: season 2 of the one piece live action, the oscars ( I want to see my beloved Fernanda Torres win), my necklaces that I've ordered, hadestown live recording, Superman, my next RPG session, Percy Jackson season 2! @insanely-creative-things @lepetitghostcat @fishing-rob @erik-christine @muirin007 @klausscrimshaw (ik it's not 10 but idk who to tag anymore, sorry ;-;)

There Goes The Vampurr With Her Coffin Full Of Necessities ⚰️

There goes the vampurr with her coffin full of necessities ⚰️

I'm going on a trip! I'll probably be logged off for four days, but there's shenanigans queued up, so you'll still technically hear from me.

Feel free to clog up my inbox, I will be very happy to wade through them when I get back.

Catch you later!

I made a Nosferatu. And gave her the coolest boots my mind can concieve of. What should I name her? Give me your most unhinged ideas.

I'm pretty sure I'm powerless to resist making more than one (if not all of them) eventually, so no need to break your brain trying to choose just one.

For those who don't know her, this is my nwedle felt Nosferatu, Ankle Biter Krysa Veinessa Whateley-Dickenson, Kryssie for short. More pictures here!

🫦 Close-up Of A WIP.

🫦 Close-up of a WIP.

For the first time, I drew a fairly decent digital drawing of a human-like creature. And then this happened. I'm cursed. I want to take a bite out of it.

Perchance, I should consider giving up pursuing a career as an illustrator, and turn to making vampire pin-ups.

What are the people's interests in slightly scandalous, highly edible-looking vampire art?

Skoodles I did for a possible vampurr self-help book. Working title is "Vampurr's guide to Unlife." I skip between projects like a Mexican jumping bean and, well, this is the newest one!

Help me name the vampurr master in the cape (the lackey in the background is Zaida). Now I'm calling him Count Vladipurr von McFangs, which works for him, I guess - he's the same lil guy from this vampurr initiation test comic here
