For the character ask game, Alucard Emery?
thank you for the ask!! this one was harder lolol.
also!! when looking on the wiki, i just realised i missed his birthday!! :((
How I feel about this character
my sexy wife. i wouldn’t not last two minutes in the same room with him without MELTING. not even necessarily from sexiness, just i do not think i could hold a thirty second conversation with him without him relentlessly bullying me. i do not think he would like me. or maybe he would pity me like a v damp cat. ne’ertheless, i adore him. i think i like him how preteen girls like boy bands in that i would chase him down with a sign that says ‘ALUCARD!! I LOVE YOU!!’ in glittery gel pen and despite liking the ego-stroking he’d be like ‘oh my god. get this chick some help.’ i want to sniff him.
edit: alsooo. forgot to mention i always think about the comparisons between him and nikolai lantsov from the grishaverse. like?? privateer, blue eyes, lil bit cocky and vain, actually turn out to be royalty, have a very brief Thing with fmc, introduced in the second book. same person.
All the people I ship romantically with this character
romantically? only rhy. so good for each other. my guy was so down bad. that fucking mirror? don’t play with meee.
sexually (and maybe kinda romantically but only pre-adsom)? kell. obvs. i feel like many of us have resigned ourselves to the fact that the kell/alucard hate sex would go crazyyy. i think some kell/alucard and lila/ojka mirroring would’ve gone crazy. same room even. 🤫
i said this on the lila post, i think, too. i would’ve liked to see some more confused/disturbed/angsty feelings after that time he kissed lila in agos. i wish he’d have led her on a bit more, or that they’d have had a one-night stand, if only to serve the purpose of letting me see angry, pathetic kell.
My non-romantic OTP for this character
anisaaa. anisa, my babyyy. you poor, poor thinggg. i cried at almost every death in the entire series but hers was the first that made me feel physically ill lmao. it was just ohhhh my babiesss. they went though the same things, suffered the same people, and even though they loved each other so so much she just wasn’t strong enough through no fault of her own. </3 it was so much worse after hearing more of alucard’s family life in threads too.
i was going to write here about how much i would’ve loved to see anisa as an aunt to ren but i actually don’t think i can do that without wailing so i shan’t.
My unpopular opinion about this character
i don’t think i have one, honestly!! i don’t think i see people post about him often enough to discern what the popular opinions of him are. if i see a post about him im just like ‘yayyy!! alucard!!’ and dont think too much about it to go ‘oohhh no i disagree’, yk?
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon
ok. stick with me here. even though schwab has said sooo many times that he isn’t a vampire and that she just liked the name, I SO WISH HE WAS. IMAGINE. that time in agos when he sneaks out the inn or wherever and lila notices that he DOESNT MAKE ANY SOUND when he’s usually jangling about the place?? i was fully geared up for the whole ‘i know what you are’ ‘say it’ ‘vampire’ confrontation from twilight between him and lila lmaooo. also. would make my vampire!lila fic so much easier. like if he turned all his crew once they joined the nightspire helloooo. imagine how sick the alucard-lila vampire privateer duo would’ve been.
also i’m think im biased. i love vampires in anything. anything could be improved with vampires.
also?? wasn’t the first thing he did when he saw rhy again kissing his neck?? THE POTENTIAL. SCHWAB, I KNOW YOU HAVE IT IN YOU. 🙏
