stood up in front of a corrupt court that condemned her innocent best friend and called them cowards while also defending that friend's innocence, even knowing and saying that it would be considered 'indecent' (volume 1, chapter 7)

goes on an entire rant about how unjust the death penalty is; one could say this is just the author's own beliefs being reflected in her work, which is true! but also doesn't negate that elizabeth was the character chosen to convey this opinion (volume 1, chapter 7)

is described to continuously self sacrifice for the sake of others without complaint, but also shows some resentment for this role she plays when she laments being unable to join victor across europe (volume 1, chapter 2 and volume 3, chapter 1)

is an artist and a writer (volume 1, chapter 1)

her passive aggressive tone in her letter to victor about justine and how he probably doesnt remember her, the girl who lived with them for five whole years (volume 1, chapter 5)

having read/written smut and horror separately and together, they're sister genres. the umph that you get from psychological or body horror is made of the same building blocks as effective, filthy smut. my sex scenes have improved as i've written darker stories.

both subjects are about intimacy, what you can do with it, what people are like without it or when it's withheld from them, either between characters or a character's intimacy with themselves. it's the same reason why, say, a lot of scenes of violence in non-horror properties end up feeling sexy or why villain shipping is so so popular.
