i think jennette mccurdy deserves to be given a shotgun and power armor and to chase dan schneider through a maze and go doomguy on his ass and personally send him to hell
broke: Percy and triton despise each other
woke: Percy and triton are normal fucking siblings and the only reason they argue is because of the years of not knowing one another
bespoke: Percy and triton prank Poseidon and literally everyone by acting like they despise each other when in reality they are just normal siblings who banter like crazy but love each other (but would kill each other if given $5)

Van Helsing has yet to beat the divorce allegations first brought up in 1879
I think Dracula Daily readers that haven't watched Van Helsing (2004) need to get AN IDEA of it because it's completely bonkers, beyond "Van Helsing is an action hero played by Hugh Jackman now". Spoilers ahead:
- Van Helsing is sort of a bounty Hunter working for a secret society that controls and follows monsters and supernatural phenomena. The headquarters are in the Vatican but it's not just Catholics.
- Van Helsing has lost his memories and his job is his attempt at getting them back (yes, they pulled a Wolverine).
- Our first introduction to the character is him chasing down and killing Mr Hyde.
- Faramir from the LotR movies plays a quirky Q from James Bond but as a friar with very shoddy theology.
- The plot of the movie spins around prince Valkan and princess... Kate Beckinsale, of Romania, whose family had sworn to destroy Dracula or never enter paradise.
- Dracula can control werewolves and is the most supreme scene chewing diva I have seen.
- Dracula had hired Frankenstein to create a monster that could draw electricity enough to bring to life his thousands of vampire children he conceived with the brides and had incubating in the rafters of the castle. That's his whole plan for the movie.
- the villagers are pissed at Van Helsing for killing a bride because until then Dracula only took one or two villagers a month or something like that and then he was going to retaliate
- Van Helsing is bitten and turned into a werewolf
- Somehow he also is the archangel Gabriel and he and Dracula have a loooong past of fighting each other through History or something.
