you have been weighed. you have been measured. and you absolutely have been found wanting. welcome to the new world. god save you, if it is right that he should do so. ♡ a knight’s tale (2001)
my favorite thing about dracula is that in original folktales vampires bit their victims on the chest but bram STOKER, not wanting it to be SEXY, moved it to the NECK because he’s a dumb homo repressed idiot
… wait, he moved it to the neck to be less sexy?
i’m bram stoker, i’m protestant or whatever the fuck and tired of being in sexy thot ireland
these people need to know what sins of the flesh can lead to. time to write a whole book about biting i guess
“Wary, Hades knew he should regret this day of hasty decisions. But she was warm. And sweet. And light. He stood, bowing low, bidding his new queen good night. To his surprise, Persephone cupped his face in her rough hands and kissed the Lord of Darkness lightly on the left temple. Under her lips, white stars blossomed in his hair for only a moment. They wilted and fell. And he fell.”
— The Illustrated Hades and Persephone, Megan C. Lloyd
Could you imagine if edward had just been some regular dude like fucking around with bella and she said with the utmost confidence “i know what you are…..you’re a vampire” and he’s just out there alone with her in the middle of the forest like
twilight au where Edward and his family just go along with it for kicks:
Rosalie hates it, Jasper sucks (or can’t keep a straight face) so he takes any excuse to avoid Bella, Carlisle doesn’t like pretending to hurt people so he decides his new persona has miraculous control, Alice and Emmett are LIVING this lie
they have an emergency family meeting to come up with basic ground rules and cover story but then just wing everything else
Edward had to tell Bella that they sparkle in the sun because Alice had dumped an entire bucket of glitter on him that morning when he got out of the shower
