Something unexpected from Dracula that the DD emails have revealed to me, is how much of a loser Dracula actually is. He cannot get his brides/wife and daughters/cousins to even pretend to be house staff. Forcing him to do everything himself for Jonathan, including cooking. He almost gets put into a pound as a dog. He gets into a fight with another dog as a dog. He, as a bat, keeps on thwacking against Lucy’s window night after night. He, the master vampire, kidnaps a lazy zoo wolf. He then proceeds to THROW said wolf through a window. Only to then let it scamper off extremely confused back home. He spends most of the Lucy-saga avoiding Renfield, only to need him to get to Mina. At which point Renfield finds him wanting and starts throwing hands. Renfield loses, but the fact that there was a fight at all is hilarious. He gets into a fight with the Team and decides London was too spicy, leaving.

…Only, thanks to making Mina connected to him, Mina is now able to check where he is.

Writers, please, please, please, I am begging you

I know we don't vibe with Mary Sues, and I know we like watching characters fail...

But if your character is the world's best assassin, they shouldn't be botching nearly every single step of every single job just because the plot demands it. If your character is one of the greatest fighters to ever live, they can't badly lose every single fight the plot throws at them and then barely win the final confrontation. If your character is a competent military strategist, they need at least a few small successes during the course of the plot. If your character is an experienced leader, they can't be constantly making the kind of missteps that realistically would cause their subordinates to lose confidence in them.

If your character is good at something. Show them being good at it.

woke up this morning to a comment on a fic saying they hoped I didn’t mind them commenting on such an old fic, and the fic isn’t even a year old, so I’m going to reiterate: I can’t speak for every single fanfic writer in the world, but I don’t know a single one myself who wouldn’t be thrilled to get comments on years-old fanfic! there is no deadline! it honestly made my day

Does anyone else remember the comics on Neopets?

I used to read the Curse of Maraqua all the time as a kid, and recently rediscovered my love for Neopets after my sister mentioned wanting to introduce my niece to it. So naturally I had to go and draw my favorite characters!

I took a few artistic liberties on the designs- most prominent one being Jacques- but I’m very happy with how these came out, considering the last time I drew them I was drawing what I can only describe as advanced stick figures!

Garin, Isca, Jacques, Caylis- Neopets
