Manifesting How My Weekend Is Going To Go

Could I leave my flowery Hannibal Lecter without a similarly flowery Will Graham? Of course not!

  I hope you like it 💙

Prints and other stuff on my RedBubble and Threadless (I’m Wisesnail on both <:  )

okay i love interview with the vampire but i’m fully ignoring everyone who’s upset at the deviations from the books because honestly they make the story that much more interesting ..

like oh book lestat would never hurt louis? boringggg MY lestat threw him through multiple walls and i love him anyway <33

besides they’re slave owners in the books that’s stupid and i hate it! like the show bothers to deal with the question of race in a way the books don’t and it has such an interesting portrayal of being black and immortal ?? it’s just like more fun sorry not sorry

you HURT izzy? you make him suffer and cry? oh! oh! kudos for author! kudos for author for One Thousand Years !!!!!!

Nevermind that he ignored 8 zillion glaring red flags but eye f*king a man as he massages a heart causes some grand epiphany.

still can’t think about anything but them

there needs to be more fic that plays with how ed is a stone cold genius and good at everything and that's part of why he's so fucking bored.

his response to stede saying he could open a restaurant says it all.

"probably could. maybe i will. i can do anything."

and he can!!!

when stede's like OH COME ON at ed demurring and then suddenly playing the piano! bcs oh ofc he can also play piano! (he has a harpsichord AND a lute AND an accordion in his room on the queen anne! consider: ed lowkey a musical prodigy)

when izzy gets frustrated in the art of fuckery and exclaims that ed just knows everything about everything in the whole fucking world! he thinks ed's a know-it-all because ed's so damn effortlessly good at everything! (his smug look at izzy when he's about to explain the fog and whatnot in 1x04!)

he asks stede how to "win this interaction" at the french party because that's what ed does. all he does is WIN WIN WIN. and that in turn is part of why it's so devastating to him when he's mocked. not just the trauma he's carrying around about class and self-worth, but also because it's probably the first time ed has failed at anything in a very long time!

a lot of au fic especially focuses in hard on the fact that ed admires and longs for stede's ability to express himself through things like fashion and to luxuriate and pamper himself and has felt barred from this by class distinctions and performing a particular kind of masculinity. but in the course of it, they entirely lose that ed is legendarily famous, wildly successful, and extremely rich!

while stede obviously holds various structural privileges over ed, in the immediate world that they inhabit ed is the one with the power and the clout and his interest in stede is what's considered a weird foible, ed taking a pet, etc.

stede has own way of doing things and money. ed has notoriety, skill, respect AND his own way of doing things and money.

he's bored and depressed BECAUSE he has it all and has done it all. if you strip that away then the entire point of his character flies right by.

i can wait for season 2
