threads where ben has to go to a college for a hunt, and goes undercover as a college student, as he tries to figure out what is killing the students one by one.

i’m so so normal abt oct 3’s entries.

many people have already made some really in depth and beautiful posts abt it so i’m not contributing much but i need to rant bc Oh My God

-dracula quoting genesis???????? dracula quoting adam’s spontaneous poetry upon the sight of eve??? ‘flesh of my flesh; bone of my bone’????? the shit quoted in every christian love song, pulling on the original first husband and wife in christian theology??? all while assaulting mina in a not so subtle SA allusion???? holy shit

-i love repurposing that account and those quotes as much as the next ex christian, especially with queer love, so while i do not share the same exact feelings as a christian abt its usage here, it fucking horrified me. i know what you’re implying here dracula and you need to get staked fr.

-i’m still talking abt this point bc i Keep Thinking Abt It. his quoting of adam here is also not wrong? i mean it’s Wrong, and horrifying. but it’s not inaccurate to the situation bc adam, with ‘flesh of my flesh’ is in reference to eve being born of his own rib. literally born of his flesh. dracula is forcing mina to drink his blood, and he’s already drunk hers. screaming crying shaking etc

-jonathan hearing what happened and Immediately getting up to kill the count, despite probably still being Not Entirely There after being hypnotized and also. you know. retraumatized. and softening when mina begs for him to stay. the tenderness he has stroking her hair and holding her all the while fantasizing abt murder. obsessed. wtf

-just jonathan today tbh. everyone’s already cried over ‘the holiest love’ line obv. willing to damn himself for her so she won’t be alone as a monster. the kissing of the forehead scar. the violence he’s ready to commit for his wife.

-again ex christian. specifically a christian cult survivor with a Lot of personal feelings of vampirism as a concept, bc of how it parallels my own experience with deconversion and shunning by my family. i too was Once Like You, but now i am some monster in the form of your loved one you treat as dead, with the ability to prey on and turn my loved ones. i too want you corrupted, to join my side. i’d been warned of these monsters my whole life, the very ones my parents believe stole me from them. my cult is also obsessed with ‘the blood is life’ concept, to the point of worshipping it and all but turning it into an idol. i have Weird Feelings abt blood. anyways mina being like ‘we have to pity the count, even if he’s a monster, bc what if i turn into a monster? what then? will you not pity me?’ girl me too

-RENFIELD. YOU DESERVED BETTER. i’ve never been institutionalized so i can’t speak on that aspect but oh my god his trying to warn everyone abt the monster he once worshipped - absolutely gut wrenching as a cult survivor. i can totally see renfield, vulnerable as he was (not just mentally ill, but denied autonomy and abused by the asylum and its doctors) falling for dracula’s lines the way a new cult convert falls for a cult’s line - we promise you safety, and power, and love, which you have no or limited access as you are. we promise you change and happiness and belonging. but the deeper you sink the more you realize you’ve been manipulated, the great danger you are in, but it’s too late. you’ve cut people off. you’ve spent too much time. you can’t be wrong. oh god what have you done

now i am thinking about helo in the city of light, how he didn't have any of his scars or any of his tattoos and he was genuinely happy. additionally, alie conjured up a copy of persephone built entirely from his memories, so for a while, helo was reunited with her before the city of light was destroyed.

who is gonna let scarlet angelov be their sugar mama and treat you to a nice hotel despite being a hunter?

the way that this page in particular was adapted just OOZES studio trigger tbh. like I know everyone likes to joke about studio trigger being the horny studio, but the quick jerky animation direction is what truly makes their work recognizable to me. I can practically see Lio Fotia bleeding through the pixels in that 5 frame animation of Falin peeking through her fingers

After Regulus dies, James always wears a sliver ring with a star on it on his middle finger. People are always asking him why he wears all gold jewellery except for that one ring. He just shrugs

Wait hold on I'm having a thought

We have rock star Eddie whose dreams take off and who starts going on tour, and we have Steve who misses him while he's away and would love to tag along, except -

He'd grown up watching his father go on business trips (and "business trips") and watching his mother eventually start traveling with him because she didn't trust him

He'd watched his father start to resent his mother and call her overbearing and jealous and controlling, and he doesn't want the same thing to happen between him and Eddie. He doesn't want Eddie to think that he doesn't trust him, or to seem like he's hovering and trying to keep Eddie on some kind of short leash

It takes time for him to realize that Eddie wants him to take an interest in that part of his life. He wants Steve along on his tours, if Steve wants to come, because he loves him and he misses him while he's away, too

It takes time for him to realize that his parents' model of marriage doesn't have to be his own, and with every song Eddie dedicates to "someone special in the audience," with every party he keeps glued to Steve's side through, with every secret smile he aims backstage during a performance, Steve's worries that Eddie is only humoring him (or, worse, harboring some secret resentment) melt away

He isn't a weight around Eddie's neck and he isn't merely tolerated - he's welcomed, and wanted, and loved

au where the angels try to have ben become michael's vessel.

warmup of the day is: here's to hoping for another year

One thing I haven't stopped thinking about is that scene where Ed and Stede dine and dash and we get that glimpse as they run off giggling. Because really, more than the hopeful reunion, the soft confessions, more than the anger and bitter jabs, that moment was a glimpse into who they'll be as a couple.

Just a couple of chaos gremlins doing whatever the fuck they want and giggling the whole time, because when they're together the rest of the world fades away, its just them and their silly little whims.

had a smidgen of a dream about chapter three and needed to illustrate it

if you ship scc please don’t interact w me 👍

would love to be sandwiched in between changbin and chan while they take turns pounding my cunt. like imagine chan pulls out after cumming inside you once and is like "'s binnie's turn now, baby. you feel that? mhm. feel how different it feels? that nice stretch?" cause he knows bin's cock is a lot more girthy than his but it's okay cause chan makes up for what bin lacks in length yk. chan would tease your clit with his fingers, rubbing slow circles around it and sucking on your nipples while changbin fucks you rough. he's a moaning mess, makes your body shake and jolt around on top of chan's from the force of his thrusts, but the latter only chuckles lowly at how eager he is. "hyung, she takes it so good," he practically whimpers, and that makes you clench again, eliciting a low growl from his chest. "look at that, pretty, you're gonna make binnie cum," chan says, abandoning your swollen bud to put his fingers in your mouth instead. before you know it, you're both cumming hard, a loud moan escaping changbin's lips as he fills you up, but he keeps rutting his hips into you until it hurts so much he needs to pull out. "already?" chan queries, his voice dripping faux disappointment, and he looks back at you, smiling in a way that lets you know he's definitely not letting the both of you rest anytime soon. he lightly taps the tip of his cock against your clit before pushing into you again suddenly, making you yelp softly from the overstimulation. "must be my turn again, hmm?"

TRIGUN BASEBALL AU DOODLES

GOOD MORNING STEPHCASS NATION !!!

joshua stirs awake at the feeling of you climbing into bed. he usually does for a minute, just long enough to acknowledge your presence, and he's already shutting his eyes when you settle in. then he hears the quietest hiccup, and he's already starting to wake up.

"hey... joshy?"

even if your voice wasn't so uneven and wobbly, joshua would have known you were upset. he's never joshy to you unless you are. he's joshua when you're speaking to or about him casually, josh when you're on the phone with your mom, shua when you're tired, and my evil, pretty boyfriend pretty much any other time. joshy is when you're upset and need to say it without saying too much. he knows how much you hate talking when you just want to cry and be held.

"c'mere," he's already sitting up and opening his arms to you. "it's gonna be okay... i'm here, my love."

my love is his way of saying everything he needs to say in moments like these: i'll keep you safe and i love you and you can cry now, i've got you. it's not the only name he has for you, but you always know what he means when he drops it oh-so-casually (always so in tune with when you're starting to get upset). one instance of 'my love' is enough to tell you he'll have the car waiting if you get your coat, or he'll make up a lie to leave early if you say it back, or he'll follow your lead if you fake sick.

you take refuge in his arms, and he's already curling them around you to hold you, safe and secure as always. you let out this quiet, shudder-y breath as you finally let go and break down in his arms. if you want to talk about it, you'll talk about it when you're done. he just strokes your back, his eyes fluttering shut as he holds you through this storm.

and he'll hold you when you resurface from underneath those waves, too, sealing the action with a soft my love just to sweeten it all.

After The Mechanical Bull Incident, i feel like Steve should take his friends to the ranch, just so they can see it in real life with a real bull.

and so Eddie can have a full blown mental crash over Steve in chaps riding a very angry bull.
