Still obsessed with Arthur Conan Doyle’s letter to Bram Stoker gushing about how wonderful a book Dracula is, but particularly how it makes such a good template for leaving fic comments, so I’m gonna to a BREAKDOWN:
Just say you loved reading it - “I am sure that you will not think it an impertinence if I write to tell you how very much I have enjoyed reading Dracula.”
Comment on a detail of the craft or structure that impressed you - “It is really wonderful how with so much exciting interest over so long a book there is never an anticlimax.“
Comment on how it emotionally affected you - “It holds you from the very start and grows more and more engrossing until it is quite painfully vivid.”
SHARE YOUR BLORBO FEELINGS - “The old Professor is most excellent and so are the two girls.”
Show appreciation for them as an author - “I congratulate you with all my heart for having written so fine a book.”
Next time you don’t know what to say on a fic you enjoyed, just use the ACD method~

If you want, you can still answer my big ass questionaire from last year (I still haven't posted the results)
If you filled it in last year, you can still do it, I added a question about it.

Jonathan: Don’t worry, I’ve got a few knives up my sleeve.
Jack: I think you mean cards.
Mina: He did not.
Jonathan, pulling out knives: I did not.

Pronin:
he's an in-joke on a twitch stream i watch and i thought it'd be funny
Demeter:
come on. He's russian. he's from Dracula. he's a hero. Tying himself to the wheel with a crucifix was iconic and metal. Going down with the ship. Dracula website. Something.

I was thinking about the drac attack pack on the train and how they're passing the time and I imagined them playing a board/card game, but because they are all so sweet, they keep giving the others exactly what they need
Mina: hmm
Jonathan, eagerly leaning over to watch her cards: what do you need, babe?
Mina, showing him her hand: these ones, but I can only exchange them for –
Jonathan: that's okay, I don't need mine, here you go, honey, i love you
Jack: *takes a card* by golly this is the worst card ever.
Van Helsing: *snatches card from him, throws it over his shoulder* take another one. It's fine.
Jack: but – the rules –
Van Helsing: you can get another one if this one was bad. Everyone agrees, right?
Everyone: *shrugs laconically or nods happily*
Van Helsing: the majority decides, it's a rule.

In 1897 they didn't say i love you, they said "she shall not go into that unknown and terrible land alone" and i think that's really beautiful
