If anyones interested in learning about the first black vampire short story, published in 1819, heres a link to the wiki, its called The Black Vampyre, and its about a former slave turned vampire who seeks revenge on his slave master. Its actually a first in many categories!

you can read the story itself here

Not only is it the first Black vampire story, it's the first comedic vampire story, the first story to include a mixed race vampire, the first vampire story by an American author, and probably the first anti-slavery short story. Some scholars believe that the text was written in response to John William Polidori's The Vampyre.

Here is the actual pdf from the site since you have to click around from the above link to actually get to it

it is always narratively correct to make your characters sleep together before they sort through the hundreds of lies and misdirections between them. make things worse make things worse make things worse #i love betrayal #i love lying #i love people feeling bad about themselves

very important for elf characters to freak the fuck out about the aging difference thing and pre-grieve like crazy and scream themself hoarse with denial when they can’t stop death itself and they still look the same as when they met the frail aged body that’s going cold beneath their touch and eventually settle into a numbness that they’ll call acceptance but they never really let anyone get as close as they did in the first century of their life unless they know they’re going to stick around as long as they will

“why are elves so snobby and exclusive and cut-off from everyone else” befriending you means they’ll end up burying you and your children and your grandchildren and they’ll still be young. exactly how many times do you think you could choose to do that. if you live through enough centuries, eventually you run out of days in the year to visit each grave.

it’s so fucking annoying how like all the popular overplayed songs are just honestly not that good like there’s so much more deserving and better music out there than the top 40 bullshit (cool music mutual with good taste leaves the room) if wonderwall was a firetruck it would be the biggest one in the world

I know padme’s friends were tired. oh so you’re marrying the hormonal teenage space monk who lives halfway across the galaxy that the you’ve seen a total of two months in the last ten years? are we sure this is love or do you just think he’s hot? bc you’re a queen turned senator and he’s emotionally stunted and in a cult. maybe we should at least wait until he cuts off that rat tail perchance?
