Can I ask what the context is behind ur banner image? it gave me a chuckle ::-)
AW so a couple months ago i fell down a rabbit hole of frankenstein “draw my life” type of videos, most of them were really low quality and obviously school assignments from students that did not want to be doing them. that particular drawing was of victor collecting the materials to make creature and it was just funny to me
the similarities between peter, ender and even valentine though– they’re all so clearly products of the same dysfunctional household.
Keep reading
I feel there is a way to write a sort of fix-it fic that reconciles Victor and the Creature, especially since Victor had once been willing to hear the Creature out and towards the end the Creature expresses grief and remorse over Victor’s death, but the way to do it is not simply to say “Victor isn’t afraid of yellow eyes in this one.”
we as the clervalstein nation do not talk enough about this chunk of text

Mary Shelley’s Mathilda
summer semester art project, acrylic on canvas
more pictures and text under the cut
Short novelette Mathilda written by Mary Shelley, the mother of Frankenstein herself, touched me in a certain way since the very moment I read it. Is it the authors writing style? The autobiographical elements snuck into it? The book not being shy portraying taboo elements and feminist ideas, unlike great majority of other books written in the early 19th century? Perhaps all of it.
I really wanted to pay homage to this piece of literature, moments in the plot that struck with me, and to Mary Shelley herself. Correct me if i’m mistaken, but to this day I don’t think there’s any collection of illustrations nor paintings inspired by this written piece, and I’m very proud and honoured to be the first one!
Here! Despite disagreements on my vision between me and my art professors, initial frustration with the poses (incredible thanks to my friend @the-gay-sailor for helping and mental support), months of work when i felt like what I’m doing is pointless, I am ready and satisfied with the result.
I hope you enjoy it as equally as I do :]
Folks often make fun of the fact that Ernest says "my brother" instead of "our brother" during the Frankensteins' reunion after William's death as if throwing shade at Victor but like
There's some 10-ish years age gap between Ernest and William, for Victor and William it's 17. William was most likely not even a year old when Victor left to university and there's been radio silence from him ever since. Victor and William literally don't know each other, for pretty much William's whole life Ernest has been his only brother. It was just the two of them and Liz, Victor was never part of it. So it's natural that Ernest would slip like that.
Victor lost the idea of a brother but Ernest actually lost a brother
