I swear there will be Jekyll and Hyde content tomorrow. For now... bark-bark.
Damn, it turns out that a terrible disease called "twinkification" also affected Comrade Sharikov in the 1976 film adaptation.
Why...
It's the same shit as it was with Edward. WHY...
"wealthy scientist performs unethical animal experiment that accidentally turns his subject into a man who is essentially his son and as punishment he's stuck with as a surrogate son not only the most insufferable guy he's ever met but the guy is also a communist and is against everything he stands for" is super funny in concept and execution thank you so much mikhail bulgakov
I seem to have completely and irrevocably fallen in love with the Wolf from "Nu, pogodi!"
Just look at these concept art!
I want him so badly.
Little dump of unspecific gothic literature headcanons, feel free to add your own:
- Adam's favourite animals are birds, especially sparrows and robins
- Victor has had asthma since childhood and has conducted multiple attempts for a more effective homemade treatment
- Jekyll and Hyde both like classical music. Former is a big fan of Mendelssohn and Bach whereas the latter prefers Liszt and Paganini
- Holmes' comfort piece on the violin is Caprice No. 24
- Jekyll is NOT a morning person. But his profession and status requires him to be one
- Sharikov has the flirting skills of a wet sock
- Also the fancy taxidiermied owl doorbell in Preobrazhensky's hall? He promptly destroyed it a second time once he was already human
TODAY IS BULGAKOV'S BIRTHDAY! YAPPIE!!
🎊Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov was born on May 15, 1891,🎊 he is the author of such works as "The Master and Margarita", "Heart of a Dog", "A Young Doctor's Notebook", "The White Guard", "Morphine", etc.
Thank you, my beloved author, for the hyperfix, on which I have been sitting for 2 years lol.

Sharikov's next bride, but only she knows that her fiance was a dog in the past.
This girl is the heroine of another Soviet satirical book "12 Chairs" by Ilf and Petrov.
Her name is Ellochka "The Cannibal" Shchukina. She is the main fashionista in Moscow and ✨️a slay girl✨️.
There are many film adaptations based on this book, but I took the 1971 version as a basis. She is especially beautiful in it and looks like a red-haired Betty Boop.
I do not have context for these, I just wanted to draw Hyde and Griffin and these happened to turn out well enough to post-
Do you think that, under different circumstances and expectations of each other (and a lot more compromising), Preobrazhensky and Sharikov could've gotten along?
It sounds like an option for a separate AU or fanfiction. But it seems to me that this is not possible in principle. Personally, I like how tense and comedic their relationship is in the book. And here their main confrontation lies not only in the fact that this is a struggle between the Creator and his Creation, not a struggle between the middle and lower classes, but a struggle between two identical and domineering characters. None of them compromise. So Sharikov teases Preobrazhensky for a reason, calling him humiliatingly "daddy-o" (this is a more correct translation of the word "папаша" into English, I heard this translation in an audiobook). Both of these characters are very stubborn. So I think their ideal relationship is to live separately and preferably as far away as possible.
AND ALSO, WHAT THE HELL IN THE FILM ADAPTATION, THEY SOMETIMES SIT ON THE COUCH IN THE SAME PRETENTIOUS WAY.
