Inktober Day 22 — Vampire Hotel
There are rumors about a place where all the noble vampires meet every hundred years to discuss the domination and extermination of the human kingdoms. This place was called The Hotel. There is always an inconsistency about the description and location of this building according to witnesses, but there is only one detail that is in every rumor about this place: the blood-red windows.

I finally got all the pieces of Virginia's "Meet Outfit" and did a little photoshoot! (The indoor photos were taken at the historic Hotel Ruby Marie here in Madison WI, where they very kindly allow cosplayers and other photographers to use their beautiful vintage decor as a backdrop!)
Oh, and because I'm super proud of her jewelry, some closeups and info on each:
Tumblr media
This is the pendant on her necklace; it was inspired by Victorian-era mourning jewelry, which often contained hair or other parts of the deceased loved one. If you look closely, you may notice her father's photo is actually Jim Beaver as Carter Cushing in Crimson Peak (Edith Cushing was one of my main inspirations for Virginia). I edited the photo for that "vintage" feel. The hair, which is meant to be from her father's beard, was actually taken from Captain's tail! 😅
Tumblr media
I made her ring using a blank DIY ring from Etsy and a skull charm intended for nail art
Tumblr media
Her bracelet is made from real Jet beads (I made it by taking apart a human-sized bracelet and restringing part of it). Jet was a very popular stone for mourning jewelry in the Victorian era.

Something of a quick fix to the whole "no one in hell knows angels can't be killed" because it's such an insane thing to believe that in a thousand years, not a single soul ever thought of fighting the angels? In the show, angels are told to be such an easy kill because they never had to defend themselves and Carmilla produces angel-tipped weapons by the hundreds, to the point of having a market for her products. It's so hard to believe that not one of the sinners who owns one of these "Carmine-Crafted" weapons didn't try to fight back against an angel and succeeded.
So here's a thought:
What if only Carmilla and Zestiel, the two at the top of the sinner's hierarchy and even able to keep every overlord in check, had actually known that angels could be killed. What if the idea that angels can't be killed was propaganda they started and kept going to keep sinners from killing an angel and inciting an unwanted war with heaven?
Somewhat long post ahead.
In the show proper, Zestiel voices concern about "Heaven purging all of hell for daring an uprising" when the idea of fighting back against the angels is brought up. He seems so sure that this would lead to an entire purge if they ever attempted the idea and surely, there must be something within the 700+ years that he had spent in that realm that makes him so sure about this possible outcome.
Here's what I wrote:
In Zestiel's time, the overpopulation of hell had just begun to be a problem. There was no yearly purge like the one we're familiar with now. Instead, it was only annual visits to check in on the realm and on Lucifer himself (personally, I would like to believe these visits were to check in on him after being thrown into hell by the higher order of angels.) Sinners back then were just as murder-happy as they are now and have found out that Angels are not good at defending themselves and that they can hurt the angels with the weapons they bring themselves.
This first murder of angels caused an extreme outrage up in heaven that it started the first purge of all sinners of hell but unlike the normal exterminations, this purge wiped out more than 80% of the population. Zestiel was one of the few who had survived this initial purge and personally saw heaven's wrath when provoked. Everyone who had survived lived on and warned the newer sinners to never attack an angel.
Heaven, however, decided to start the yearly extermination a few years later and many of those surviving demons died in the many exterminations that happened after that. Leaving Zestiel as the only living demon who still remembers the first purge and why it happened. Zestiel wants to avoid having heaven's big purge again not because he cares about the sinners like him, but because he cannot let himself live through something like that again.
Carmilla fits in this as the main weapons dealer in hell, she could make sure that the production of angel-infused weaponry is contained and limited to only her and an exclusive few. She can also make sure that the weapons being used in hell are controlled by her since she's basically made a monopoly on weapons in hell. Zestiel makes her his partner in making sure to continue making sure that the sinners will never fight and win against angels.
Both these overlords work together to continue scaring off every sinner from attempting to kill an angel and even if they try to, they're able to rely on the fact that none of their weapons can even harm an angel.
-----
It's not a perfect fix (admittedly it was written hastily and does go against other parts of the worldbuilding) but it's at least a step in a clear direction and makes sense of the "No one knows angels can be hurt" aspect of worldbuilding.

Hazbin Victorian flower Language HC
Meanings below the cut!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hi hi!! Using my random knowledge for a few of the hazbin cast. Do reply with characters you'd like to see in the next three! Now, for the meanings:
Alastor
For Al I decided using mainly white flowers with dark meanings reflects how he tries to present himself as completely harmless to Charlie despite her clearly knowing he isn't.
Great laurel (rhododendron): This one is simple. Danger, beware. He's a dangerous force, and this is as plain as it can get.
Dragonwort: Horror. This reflects his gory, cannibalistic and frankly terrifying nature.
Dogsbane: Deceit, falsehood. Alastor is a manipulator, and he does it well. He's able to lie, twist his words and back people into a corner in order to make deals with him.
Deadly nightshade: This is a toxic perennial. It is physically dangerous and represents danger and betrayal. This one is far more clear, its in the name and I like to think it shows how he manipulates but everyone knows of his danger regardless. (its also referred to as property of the devil, linking back to the lilith theory a bit, but shhh)
Vox
Vox was tricky, it was difficult to find flowers which related to his personality but here goes.
Gloxina: Proud spirit. He's outwardly full of pride and performing to the demons of hell.
Narcissus: Egotism. This one's clear. He's excessively obsessed with his image, and is very threatened by Alastor in particular trying to ruin that. He wants to appear favourable to the public too.
French marigold: This has a few different meanings, but I want to focus specifically on wealth. He's incredibly wealthy with both money and power. Hell, he's literally a CEO. It can also represent cruelness and coldness due to jealousy.
Aloe: Listen, I don't know. I know he keeps a singular one on his desk somewhere in the tower and calls himself a gardener. Also, it represents bitterness. This is another show of his rivalry with Alastor (possibly due to previous friendship).
Lucifer
Red columbine: Anxious. Maybe not to everyone, but he's very conscious of being a good father and feels he underperforms consistently.
White chrysanthemum: Truth. He's the snake in the garden of eden, introducing free will and truth to humanity.
Apple blossom: How couldn't I! This one doesn't outright relate to Lucifer but come on, APPLE blossom. It means "fame speaks him great and good" and well, I'm assuming Hell fears him based on everyones reactions and the fact he's the literal king of hell.
Buttercup: Riches, memories of childhood. I know this is a stretch, but memories of childhood are his days as an angel and the other side of it riches represent his physical wealth.
Anyway I'm exhausted lol. Please do suggest any!

The “We’ll do every room in a different style” line ends up being true because each suite is decorated to each ghost’s preference/era

I'm back babies!!! Bringing you more antis being dumbasses!!!
And on your left you will see them contradicting themselves, saying that viv screwed herself over by taking the deal from Amazon, only to then appear to trash talk the views on her YouTube show as well. So which is it?
They then complain about her selling merch, completely ignoring the fact that this is a show posted online for free, and that they need to pay the artists somehow, and revenue from views aren't going to be enough. It's funny considering antis usually sit here yelling that she does not pay her workers enough, yet are irritated when she tries to get the funds to pay said workers.
At this point you are complaining for the sake of complaining.
Also, the fact that you are trying to make fun of her views when you likely haven't even gotten close to that number, nevertheless on every post, is hilarious in a pathetic way. Careful there, you're turning a bit green~

Relax a little 🍸🕯🥀
This hotel was simply gorgeous, a beautiful piece of preserved history. For once I felt under dressed lol. This is the type of place to sit with friends, share drinks and stories of recent debauchery, and partake in hedonism.

⚔️ Quality Time w/ Cornelius ⚔️
❌ DO NOT REPOST ❌
Commission by @gabendselarom
Doodles of my Pen with his Dad.
• Admiral Pendragon uniform inspection 😤
• Meeting his grandchildren (Gaby’s) 🥺💜
• Gushing about Pen’s Mother & their ‘escapades’ 😏
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I can't believe my old man was created all because Pen wore the incorrect uniform for a general of his era 😂 (red is correct not blue).
Cornelius is saying the ranking is wrong, medals & colour are incorrect. Also why does he needs a riding crop if doesn’t have a horse
Meeting the grandchildren is adorable QQ they’re 4 yrs old @gabendselarom adores Cornelius because her precious Noelius has a role model to follow to becoming a protector of his family 🥺
Connor is a curious bean & Cornelius is besotted that Eva looks like her grandmother
Last but not least in order to win his wife back Cornelius had the amazing advice from his son Pentious on how to court her once more.
Unfortunately the aftermath of the success leaves poor Pentious having an awkward ‘bro talk’ with his own Father.
