okay jokes aside dracula daily is such an ingenious way of promoting and enjoying classic literature. bringing back the experience of reading it like a serial novel but through email?? connecting the narrative experience to the textual form but in a modernised way?? the epistolary novel at its peak!!! that shit is so cool!!!! and seeing people reading it for the first time and getting their live reactions?? fucking blessed!! maybe it’s the nerd in me but i think it’s genuinely awesome
Casually merging two things I like: Witch Hat Atelier x Donkey Skin. I thought about drawing Tetia in one of the dresses a few months ago (she deserves it), then came the prince so I drew him as well.
The color of the Sun dress was fun to color but I used a replica as a ref so it’s not perfectly accurate. The prince’s outfit was way too detailed. (Zoom in to see everything!).
Anyway go read Witch Hat Atelier and watch Peau d’Ane (1970)!!!!
Anti-revenge narrative this, anti-revenge narrative that, I personally think that Inigo Montoya had the right idea when he stabbed Count Rugen in the gut and said “I want my father back, you son of a bitch”
A lot of revenge arcs end with the hero saying “there’s nothing you can do to bring my loved one back, so me seeking revenge is pointless.” The Princess Bride’s revenge arc ends with Inigo Montoya saying “there’s nothing you can do to bring my loved one back, so there’s nothing that can save you.”
