Spelldon and Valentine’s ship name is either Love Spell or Pig Latin
Yes I think I’m hilarious
Yes I’m probably not
According to Zeno Robinson, Hunter would avoid hugs because he knows that as soon as he gets wrapped into one, he’s going to find it so comfortable that he’ll just. Relax and immediately conk out. Just start snoozing, and that’s why Hunter tries to stay away from hugs;
Make of this information as you will.
I have a headcanon for Spelldon.
Don (I nicknamed him that) speaks Italian as well as Greek (he and Casta are half Italian)
That’s so cute! I love that. I think he’d be able to speak Ancient and modern Greek, too, but he uses Ancient Greek more because of his family.
He thinks in Ancient Greek because he grew up speaking it on Aeaea. He talks to himself in Ancient Greek, he counts in Ancient Greek, etc. Val learns it for him.
I never really thought about the Italian thing but it makes a bunch of sense (especially since people think Aeaea is in/near the Italian coastline). Maybe his father is an Italian sailor.
Me with Kieran Valentine lmao I have so many headcanons for him that fit well for me and nobody else
don’t ever talk to me or my 4500000000 niche AUs ever again
MH3 but Deuce ended up in Boston and meets Chad, Clair, and Jackson (who is part monster but in hiding)
Lilith is his antagonist and she comes from a superstitious, monster hunting family. Her father is descended from Abraham van Helsing, and her mother is descended from William Stoughton (the chief judge of the Salem Witch Trials)
She isn’t too bad she just wants balance. The moment she realizes there is a way to get him out of the human world, she stops attacking him and helps.
Ellis is recruited to help too (for the witch drama with Lilith)
How do you feel about the pride comic so far? :D
I actually hadn't sat down to read it until I got this ask, but the snippets I'd seen were ADORABLE. I'm writing this as I read it for the first time:
pg. 1: "Hypnosis was so much easier" HE WOULD! And him rehearsing with Whisp is so sweet. I love that they tied her and their friendship into the story more; I kind of thought she was done for good. Valentine hitting his face on the locker is SUCH a diary thing, too. I don't know if it was meant to be a callback or anything, but that's what it reminded me of. And Whisp saying "good luck!" while Kier is half-dead on the floor is PRICELESS. I love that he's still trying to make amends with Drac though.
pg. 2: Him blurting everything at once and then stopping to be all ✨composed✨ is perfect. UGH but the accent. Kieran, dear, she knows you're Romanian. I like the call back, though, and if you really look into it, it's a reflex because he's embarrassed and panicked. I LOVE the cut between him saying "it's fine" and him absolutely panicking, all zoned-out. It's such a simple thing that's meant to be comedic but it really shows us how he thinks and how vulnerable he is in a world without his prestige.
pg. 3 BIG SPELLDON REVEAL DUN DUN DUUUUUN!!! I love the small details of his character design that bring him to life, like the rings on his fingers and the mole on his lip. and the necklaces <3. Valentine IMMEDIATELY crumpling the paper in his big dramatic moment is so silly. And spelldon ignoring it and just taking a rose. It's such an easy, domestic kind of moment. And they're both so pretty ugh the close ups. "Like my soul" ok princess val 🙄 and spelldon worried, "You still love draculaura?" I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SPELLDON CAULDRONELLO
pg. 4: the moment of realization is priceless. Kieran is just in awe of this man. and Spelldon is just so enthusiastic about it (I love how he's just like 'this is dumb' but goes along with it anyway. Okay mr. malicious compliance). The height difference is also perfect to me. It makes sense that Spelldon is way taller because he's part (like 70% ish if I remember right from that time I did a pedigree) god. Casta's tall too isn't she? Valentine lost in his own little world ❤️ my little yapper.
pg. 5: Valentine trying to be over prepared, he's so me. And it's a nice (probably unintentional) callback to his diary where he says "better have it and not need it than need it and not have it." Spelldon's blunt humor is one of my favorite things ever. And him flattering Kieran about biteology >>> ugh they're so sweet. Val's facial expressions are so funny too he's so dramatic. Him trying to be humble and change the subject when Spelldon compliments him is so cute. AAAA they're so sweet.
pg. 6: Spelldon being all nonchalant while Val is literally falling over is so them. That is such a fun dynamic for them to have and I love it so much. I don't even know how to describe or "analyze" it because it just feels so naturally them that there's nothing to point out as "unusual." AAA Spelldon catching Val is such a sweet moment in the comic. Poor Val has his eyes closed, he can't even see Spell's face when it happens. And his hand is HOVERING over Val's back; he's not even touching him and he's blushing like that. I don't even think I need to mention the smirks (they're so precious)(Spells had an eyebrow slit this whole time and I just didn't see it??😭)
pg. 7: EEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAA Val you're going to give poor Spelldon a heart attack leave him alone. He's so dramatic clasping his hands like that. The mausoleum is really cute though, I approve. If I were a vengeful ghost, this would be my haunt (get it?). Spelldon having this whole plan thought out to get the ingredients when he's the one who thought it was a useless plan to start with 🤨 okay Spelldon we all see what you're doing. Especially since the whole plan is to get Val clinging to him. Scarah to the rescue!!! Not the return of the accent val STOP PLEASE. I'm glad they're talking about it, though. And he doesn't do it to spelldon 👀 because he's being himself with spelldon and doesn't feel the outside pressures to be someone else. He subconsciously knows that spelldon will accept who he is. Spelldon's face when Val admits that is priceless. BUT SPELLDON NOOOOOO WATCH OUT!
pg. 8: Val regretting the potion because he's in loooooove is so cute to see. "A couple thousand years" you want to spend a couple thousand years with your feelings for Spelldon awww. And he doesn't even act like he needs them to be reciprocated. Like, duh we all know what he's doing, but he never spells (pun unintentional but fully embraced) it out. The bracelet too from the Val's rose is a sweet little detail. Especially since they chose to give us THAT angle for that panel. They wanted us to see that in this moment. Valentine voicing his development is perfect. He really has grown and learned so much. SPELLDON WHAT?????? NOOOOO! and Val immediately regretting this whole thing because oh nooo Spelldon won't love him (🤨)
pg. 9: Okay Spelldon you trickster. "You really think i'd let you excise your emotions like that" (okay mom) "Yes? I asked you to!" Bro. That's super sweet though, he's been looking out for him this whole time, but couldn't just tell him no. Awww he wanted to spend time with him. AWWW VAL. I'm surprised Val didn't feel the love but maybe i've been reading his powers wrong. And then we have The Moment™ of course. Aww
pg. 10: Aw he and Drac made up. I'm glad they got closure from everything (the Pit Incident... and everything beforehand). WOAH val is so pretty, that turning panel??? Spelldon watching silently from the sidelines all proud. We have to remember that he met Spelldon BEFORE Whisp (and long before the two of them had their makeshift therapy sessions), and the day of the dance (where he failed his attempt to fix everything) from the original comics. He was still a mess then. He has been here since then, and got to see him grow. KIERAN VALENTINE FULL NAME RAHHHH COME OUT YE BLACK AND TANS COME OUT AND FIGHT ME LIKE A MAN🇮🇪💪i'm glad they're pushing that because so many people think Valentine is his full name, it's actually crazy. Whisp wanting to meet Spelldon 👀 I need to see that now too! And Val ignoring her to hold Spelldon's hands, he's so clingy. I guess he has been this entire time with his yapping. And they walk into the sunset!!!
THE END!!!
I don't know if I wrote WAYYY too much, but I wanted to make sure I gave my full reaction (because lets face it, we've been starved for a while. thats why I got into fanfic like three-ish years ago). The notes got progressively longer as I went 😭
All in all I absolutely adore the comic. It's such a sweet glimpse into Valentine's growth and development, and I'm so glad to finally have a real Spelldon. The entire thing is such a good slice-of-life story that just feels calm and domestic and unforced, like there is no antagonist or unneeded tension to force things along. It's just Spell and Val.
Trying to explain the lore and plot of my “short story” without giving away the fact it’s a jegulus fanfic
Since Circe was out on Aeaea for killing her husband I think she would be very critical about her children’s partners
Like she would try to matchmake and she wouldn’t care so much if she didn’t like the person. She would only care if they worked well with her kids.
AAAAAA OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS AMAZING
I love this so much it’s so beautiful I love the detail on his hair and his clothes and the LIGHTING?? Chefs kiss

The amount of people who don’t know that Valentine is his last name
So I know they’ve released a few real names for the second live action movie characters BUT
Ellis is the only one who doesn’t have a last name. He’s just referred to as Ellis.
I know Draculaura doesn’t either but we know Zamara is his mother and Zamara has a last name so why wouldn’t he?
BECAUSE ELLIS ISNT HIS REAL NAME
I think it’s a fake name he uses IN the movie and how he’s introduced and everything but I don’t think it’s his real name
Because he’s Kieran Valentine
(Sigh-v)novelist and fanfic authorYes this is like entirely Kieran Valentine
