ppl like to say soft brown eyes a lot and i love that but shout out to hard brown eyes. brown eyes like mountains of bedrock, power, decisiveness. brown eyes that cut through steel, fracture and crumble. brown eyes that guard, brown eyes that PROTECT!! brown eyes that only drip in the presence of magma because they are the last defense that stands when all else is gone. hard brown eyes 🤌🏼

no, i don’t have a “dream job.” i want to spend my days reading and writing and lazing in the afternoon sun. i want to bake bread and brownies and apple crumble. i want to grow my own vegetables and plant a rainbow of flowers. i want to be with nature. i want to be at peace.
The Hollywood creation of "Castle Frankenstein" as the place where Victor creates the Creature is really a shame, as it prevents the wider public from knowing the hilarity of the fact that Victor made his fucked up homunculus in his student housing at the college in Ingolstadt. Imagine you're trying to get your bachelor's degree and the chem major down the hall has created a crime against god in his fucking dorm room AND THEN HE LEAVES IT THERE. The creature has to make his own damn way off campus somehow!!!
OK but now I need a College AU where the rest of the dorm sees Adam stumble out of that one really annoying chem Major's room and just go.
"Well, you're not brewing sulphiric acid or calling us idiots for not being into Astrology or whatever. You wanna go to the rager?"
And turns out he's a little twitchy around fire but hey that means he won't get high and burn his mattress in the hall, DAVE. So Adam goes to Victor's classes and gets on the football team and rushes a frat house and his New Bros think he's just swell so they... kind a help The Creature take over Victor's Identity. Get a Student ID with his picture on it. Go to finance office and 'get that paperwork straightened out'. Introduce him at Networking events where he does GREAT, because nobody forgets a dude with Presence like that.
When Victor comes back from his little temper tantrum, he discovers that, as far as everyone at the university is concerned, The Monster IS Frankenstein.
