Hallmark!Adam Appreciation Post ❤️
Hey guys 👋
This is a thing I made months ago when I was kinda bored and I wanted to pass time, but I got too lazy to post it and, once again, started to rot in my drafts.
Please, don't take it too seriously. This is all about me being silly and fangirling over my favorite take on Adam/The Creature in a Frankenstein adaptation (Musical!Adam comes as a very close second) 🧟😍
Well, have fun 😘
P.S.: Forgive me for any grammar mistake. English is not my first language.
Baby Creech walking in the forest and being in contact with nature for the first time. His eyes full of curiousity, wonder and innocence just like a child
I MEAN
JUST LOOK
AT HIM
WHY DOES HE HAS TO BE SO ADORABLE 😍😍😍
And then everything goes down when he's expelled from a village by an angry mob for stealing food (but he doesn't even understand what he's doing wrong! He's just born, has no idea what the fuck is happening, where he is and he's desperately hungry and... and...)
He runs away until he finds the DeLacey's house and hides inside a little barn where lies down and starts to cry and I just cry as well and all I want is to hug him and make sure no one will ever hurt him again 🥺
The scene where he meets the little girl for the first time
Little girl (I think her name's Eva if I'm not mistaken): Do you like baby ducklings?
Adam, all happy and shy: Y-yes...
When Eva brings Adam inside the house and you clearly see in his face how anxious and nervous he is because he's scared of how the girl's grampa will react to his presence
But then he relaxes when the old DeLacey receives him with open arms (the man also told him he was blind, which means he wouldn't be scared by his appearence) and even offers him shelter and food
And then DeLacey starts to play his violin and Adam gets so emotional he starts to cry because that was the first time someone ever treated him not with hostility and violence but with pure kindness
Eva: What's wrong? Why are you crying?
Adam, sobbing: No one... has ever been... so kind to me before.
WHY DID ANYONE HUG THIS POOR MAN YET?! 😢
In the next scene he and the little girl are dancing together while DeLacey plays his violin and he's smiling and having fun and this is the happiest moment of his life (and sadly his only one 😔)
Literally all the times the Creature calls Victor "father" with that shaking, begging and desperate voice tone of his
Adam witnessing Justine's execution and being unable to look at the scene ('cause he knows he fucked up and he can't take back the damage he's done)
Then, at night, he carries her dead body in his arms and begs her for forgiveness
I mean, of course this doesn't change or excuse his crimes, but it shows he feels remorse for the suffering he caused and how the weight of his actions actually affects him. It's just so painfully human and, even though it doesn't happen in the book, I love they included this scene. 👌
His reaction when he sees the bride for the first time is just so touching. His teary eyes full of hope, his shaking voice, his smile of pure joy. I just... 🥹
"She's so beautiful. She's perfect."
"There's so much I want to tell you, share with you, teach you. About life. Love. I made us a home, our own secret place, where we can live without fear... with our children... together."
P.S.: You can listen to a little bit of "Moolight Sonata" playing in the background during this scene. It just makes the whole moment even more melancholic and heartbreaking. It could be considered the Creature's love theme (I read a post suggesting this idea and it just got stuck in my head because it's so perfect and it makes me so emotional and I'm just crying again okay).
The whole scene between the Creature and Robert Walton, but specially this part:
Adam: Do you dream, Captain?
R. Walton: Yes, of course.
Adam: I dreamed once. To love. To be loved.
🥺
R. Walton: But you're a slave to vengeance.
Adam: Is not any man subject to temptation every day?!
R. Walton: Christ did not resort to vengeance when all mankind sinned against Him!
Adam: His father loved Him, sir. My father despised me.
OKAY NOW I'M DEAD
😭💔
That's how the conversation happened in the book? Not exactly, and part of me still wished they had used more of the original dialogue because is so fucking good.
Did the scene still hit hard in the feels? Oh God YES! And how it did.
Well... that's it.
There are definitely more precious moments but I think this is already enough.
Also, if no one in this fandom will spread love for this miniseries, I'll have to do it myself. 🥰
