I Have One Word For This.

Happy new year ! :)

(Might be early, because of the time zones)

(Lil doodle, hope you don’t mind)

Ooooh it's Pierce and his floofy tie! Look at the little coquette. That's him during the New Year's Even reveries. This is him after:

I just woke up and the h in aftermath was lost the the void in my brain.

Happy new year to you too, what a lovely gift this is!

Wrong answers only: What's Erik saying to the Persian?

I found this among my Pharoga doodles (don't ask; they'll come up to menace you soon enough). I've clean forgotten what I was going to caption it. It looks like ✨️drama✨️.

So, wrong answers only: what's going on?

(More Persian and gremlin bald cat Erik here and here.)

SO many hearts, for you. You incredible person.

Aaaaahhhh, thank you very much!! Right back at you, friend <3<3<3<3

(Loosely related fact: I always thought <3 was supposed to be a really scrunched-up looking sideways smiley face, never occurred to my Undead Victorian brain that they're hearts)

A Christmas Carol, but Scrooge is dead.

Requested and inspired by @blackforrestpunk in this post. Something concerning the cat Ayesha and Chistine has also been requested, but I haven't got around to that yet.

I used to hate Dickens, and now I find him tolerable at best, but his style gives me allowance to ramble in archaic language, so I'm not complaining. This is honestly not that far from my usual writing style, so I've already clunked out part 2 and 3, if the readers are interested.

I'm an ancient vampire, confirmed. I honestly thought KYS meant 'keep yourself safe'.

aww he’s sending kisses 😚

Send this to all your favourite moots and pass the pumpkin round! KEEP THE PUMPKIN TRAIN GOING 🎃🖤🎃🖤🎃

Oh my, oh my, I got two pumpkins!

Mr Pierce took them and made a train for his rats.

I've read very few romance books because it's bad for my health. I swear it makes that one happy braincell in my brain start wheezing and sputtering for dear life.

One thing that gets my goat is those female leads who are trying to hard to be weird. The author wants them to be 'just a girl' but also 'not like other girls.' The love interest from It Ends With Us used that exact words 'You're not like the other girls' many times.

Author, that is a painfully normal - I won't say boring but oh look I just did - human being.

The message these romances are trying to send is: 'You can be weird and still get noticed by a tall, dark and handsome man with a high income (that last point is just coincidence because we don't care about money)!' But the message I'm receiving is: 'You can be weird in a conventionally understandable and acceptable way and still get noticed by...'

Because all of the 'weird' leads are exactly like the people around me who I never fit in with. So if THEY'RE weird, what does that make me? Frankenstein's Monster?

(This is not me comparing myself to the expectations set by the romance genre. This is me saying its portrayal of people is skewered.)

I challenge romance authors to be locked in a Gothic castle cellar with me. They won't use the phrase 'not like other girls' lightly after that.

Time to return to vampires and gloomy fog, I need a pick-me-up. Dracula, my friend, is it Zoo Theft today or Stupid Sunhat Day?

"You can take me hot to go!"

If I have adorableness, you get adorableness. If I get brainrot, well, so do you! Je suis désolée.

All phantom cat stuff here!

They make each other worse - in a sweet way. Sarah is very, very done with their hijinks.

How to cheer up a vampire who deals with the pain of immortal existence by crying and bedrotting instead of binge-drinking (arterial blood) and building cults and evil empires.

I think I drew an OC versus Creator thing a while back, but I can't remember what I've done with it, so here's one I drew today

I swear I'm not Undead, I'm just cynical as anything and spend too much time squinting suspiciously at people. How I can have such a happy vampire, I have no idea.
