Jonathan, really, you are the one that got in the ladies room. You gotta respect the rooomies privacy, while you are still here.

jonathan harker on may 12th: i witnessed with abject terror as the count descended the sheer stone wall of the castle face first as a lizard would. the unmitigated horror of the spectacle haunts my waking hours like an inescapable nightmare. this man or this thing shall surely be my undoing.
jonathan harker on may 15th: saw the old bastard do the crawling trick again and honestly fuck him it's not even that impressive i don't even care anymore i hope he falls.

Unitentional or not, the importance of the gothic feminine put on Jonathan's shoulders in this part is worthy of many words. There is so much symbolism that is mostly reserved for female gothic characters on Jonathan that it's no wonder some parts of his unwanted survival game with the Count.
Jonathan can't feel, nor believe that he is safe in his room anymore thanks to Dracula being downright daring with his supernatural antics to an almost alarming degree. So, as a good gothic heroine, Jonathan defies the orders given to him, grabs a source of light, and explores the place where he is held captive.
I went back to the room, and taking a lamp, tried all the doors.
The door sequence, and realization of how truly isolated Jonathan is from any kind of human being is painted in strokes of Bluebeard's wife, even calling how a key could change Jonathan's fate, and showing what is beneath the opulent wing of the castle in which he tries to sleep.
However, what comes later is something very important.
Here I am, sitting at a little oak table where in old times possibly some fair lady sat to pen, with much thought and many blushes, her ill-spelt love-letter, and writing in my diary in shorthand all that has happened since I closed it last.
This is such a eye opening detail for Jonathan's relationship with the feminine, and his role as a gothic heroine. He can't stay in his room, a private place where he is supposed to be safe, because everything is now haunted by Dracula's patriarchal and masculine presence even when he is not there; the room is tainted, and it's a reminder that Dracula will violate Jonathan's boundaries again if he wants to.
So, when Jonathan recognizes the tell tale signs that the only unlocked door in the castle is not only "neutral" ground by how old it is, but also can be seen through feminine lens he is utterly relieved, and thinks that in there he will finally have a moment of peace. Jonathan embraces this thought of that little oak table existing outside a realm that the Count has not touched, one that instead has seen women fall in love as explicitely compares his shorthand diary to a love letter.
Of course, this clear dissobedience of the Count's orders will have consequences, the novel wouldn't be gothic if it didn't. Yet, what matters is how these consequences will affect Jonathan, will they shatter a fundamental view that he has? Or will they make worse his mental downward spiral?

While the Count keeps going in his lizard fashion, Jonathan got to explore a bit of the castle. It's essential to do some exercise once in a while, even on a business trip, like looking for a way to escape and pushing dead bolted doors.
#dracula daily#re: dracula#drawcula daily#jonathan harker#myart#lizard fashion day 2 electric boogaloo#while Jonathan is just (benaffleleckmeme) at the window#today some vibey architecture#whenever i picture the castle in my mind it looks like some Piranesi drawing#so i tried to capture a bit of that
