Ladys-maria - S. Maria

Really excited to see a new group of people understand why a lot of us REALLY don’t like Dracmina in general and adaptations after this Dracula daily thing.

Johnathan and Mina did not go through this shit for that. (Believe me I am all for vampire love stories but this one ain’t it. Usually team vamp, this time .. no no.)

WE’RE DOING SO WELL!!!

Dracula Returns

I don't know if you've heard the latest news, but it looks like Dracula is going to return to cinema screens, I just saw on my phone that it will be produced by Luc Besson in partnership with Christoph Waltz. I'm shaking, anxious and afraid of repeating the same rereading from 92, I understand those who like the material, but I really wanted a version closer to what is actually covered in the book. My couple JonMina as an ardent couple that they are, Renfield without stereotypes, Lucy without the tremendous sexualization, Dracula as manipulative and megavillain and without romanticizing him as if he were innocent of something, Van Helsing without his caricatured and even exaggerated format, etc.

and honestly, on all sites it only shows the version of a Dracula wanting to find his wife lost in eternity, please show us the story as it truly is! Why distance yourself so much?!

Above all, and from the bottom of my heart, I hope it is at least a good adaptation.

Mina after reading Jonathan's journal:

Destroy the myth that libraries are no longer relevant. If you use your library, please reblog.

This is something I have been thinking about a lot lately, especially after the elections for mayors and city councilors that took place in my country, Brazil, in October of this year. Although we have a left-wing president, our senate and plenary are dominated by the right wing (often extreme) of the previous president. I went to vote with great discouragement, because I saw the cities of my country divided into two sides and because I saw a series of unprepared politicians who use faith for their own privilege and who consequently cause discord, hatred and fear among people who kill themselves for politicians who do not even care about the population after running for office. And so they benefit themselves, they want the people tied to fear and blinded by ignorance!

When will we have peace

The last time Trump won, I wanted to have my US friends to be able to move to Europe, but honestly, the politics here aren't much better either. The whole right wing ideology is growing bigger and bigger here too - the last elections had incredibly high votes for rightwing parties in austria (where I live) and also in Germany. Clearly I can't speak about the other countries, but Italy is having a fascism problem as well. Pretty sure it doesn't look much different in other countries. For many years, I believed we were growing more open minded, supportive of each other, successfully changing human rights for the better. But everything is running backwards. How much louder do we need to be? How much harder do we have to fight for the fucking right to exist? How can people believe they're in charge over other people's lives and decisions? What the fuck, humanity.

A gente vai se privando de viver por medo,

e acaba não vivendo nada.

Lucy's Wedding

(this is in my language, but it is the wedding date of our dear Lucy Westenra) imagine this day, being marked yesterday, beautiful and sunny with flowers and lots of joy, if it weren't for that damned walking leech

Press play DJ, it's Saturday night and it's time to play the JonMina playlist!

Every wedding anniversary deserves good music and I was ARDENTLY waiting for this moment

October 3rd

"As for me, I have already made up my mind. If Mina becomes a vampire, I will not let her enter this unknown and terrible universe alone. I suppose that in ancient times, vampires multiplied in this way: so that their hateful bodies could rest only on holy ground, the holiest love must have recruited many soldiers for its armies."

Could Jonathan be the first potential literary character for the "I would die for her" topic? I swear I have no idea of ​​any classics older than "Dracula" that had a character in his full consciousness take such an action as Harker did for Mina.
