Three People - Um - Friends - Um - Menaces To The General Public (yep, That'll Do) Getting Together To

You're a mean one, Mr Grinch 💅🏻

I didn't make him fancy; he always has been.

Monster Pin-ups is not something I thought I'd be doing, but as they say, these things do happen.

If you asked me my favourite Christmas song, I'd say the You're a Mean One Mr Grinch cover by Sabrina Carpenter or Carol of Bells, depending on how refined I want to appear. Both are equally true.

Thank you for the tag, Greenfinch! I'm sorry it took me so long, I have much difficulty choosing favourites. In no specific order:

Christine Daaé - Le Fantôme de l'Opéra by Gaston Leroux

Mina Harker - Dracula

Noemí Taboada - Mexican Gothic

Edith Sharpe - Crimson Peak (my Gothic is showing, isn't it)

Diana Bishop - All Souls Trilogy

Wednesday Addams

Mary Watson - Sherlock (until the showrunners used her as a plot point. I'm still massively disappointed about that.)

Bella Baxter - Poor Things (the 2023 film, I haven't got my paws on the book yet)

I'm feeling a lack of evil ladies in my list, and it feels too self-indulgent to throw my own crazy lady characters in, so I'm off to find some.

Open tag!

Thank for the tag @elvisqueso I love that you included Marissa Schurr because the side characters in Hannibal are everything <333 (also Rumiko Takahashi draws the most beautiful women 🙂‍↕️)

In honor of International Women's Day, list eight of your favorite fictional women from eight different fandoms, in no particular order.

Beverly Katz - Hannibal

Toph Beifong - ATLA

Dolores Abernathy - Westworld

Tara Thornton - True Blood

Dowager Countess of Grantham - Downton Abbey

Lucille Bluth - Arrested Development

Homura Akemi - Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Amy Dunne - Gone Girl

So I asked what you wanted me to do to celebrate a Tumblr milestone

You people got to be kidding me. @vladimirsangel , my vampire friend, do you think it counts if I fistbump you?

ANYWAY, we're doing the 2nd most voted one. Send prompts and meme templates to my askbox! Like these:

Of course, if you have better ideas, go crazy!

Would YOU pass the vampire certification test?

My name is Amanda, and I listen to Taylor Swift, so I get to make these jokes. Zaida is a real name for a Victorian vampire-witch lady from Aylmer Vance and the Vampire.

As much as I adore gamourous vamp fashion, @vladimirsangel and I were talking about how we would be a danger to the public if we wore anything fancy. I would wreck a white tuxedo with vampiric speed, but at least it won't be a health hazard.

You know I just had to!!

01.     pockets.

02.     bag   /   purse.

05.     closet.

06.     bedside table drawer.

07.     medicine cabinet.

08.     wallet.

09.     “junk” drawer.

10.     pantry.

13.     to do list.

15.     bookcase.

Thank you for the ask!

1. Pockets. Pierce carried a little scent bottle of dirt because vampires need to rest in home soil, I like to think it's like a comfort object. Also, tiny rat cookies he probably forgot about. Sarah has her folding knife with 100 different tools in them, mostly pointy stabby things. Cat often doesn't have pockets because she wears impractical clothes.

2. Bag/purse. Pierce has a little chainmail rat purse. It's full of spare change and the odd antique gold coin. Sarah's is full of murdery things like travel-sized stakes and lipstick. Cat is unpredictable but totes food like a hamster.

5. Closet. Pierce has a lot of grey and white suits and fancy waistcoats. He also has many skeletons and straw hats, but we don't talk about those. Sarah has ball gowns, walking suits, and riding habits all in black. Cat describes her wardrobe as "if a hoard of goblins are set loose in an alt thrift store."

6. Bedside drawer. Pierce technically doesn't sleep in his bed, but he does lie there when his partners want him to, and he reads the novels he keeps in the drawer until they falls asleep and he can go around his nocturnal vampire business. Sarah keeps a crucifix, a revolver with silver bullets and another with regular ones, matches and magazines. Cat keeps candles, pen and paper, sweets and her ebook.

7. Medicine cabinet. Pierce and Sarah both keep brandy in their medicine cabinets like good Victorians. Cat has more modern amenities and chocolates for emergencies.

8. Wallet. I have the feeling Pierce is always losing his. Sarah, no-nonsense coins and the odd cheque. Cat's is stuffed with old receipts and always short on change.

9. Junk drawer. Pierce has a lot of half-written love letters and probably some hate mail he couldn't bring himself to burn. Sarah doesn't have one. Cat's whole flat is basically a junk drawer.

10. Pantry. Pierce and Cat live in the same house (he's her landlord) and Pierce isn't the kind of vampire to keep dead bodies around, so the pantry is full of Cat's doubtful food shopping choices. Sarah lives in a small flat with no pantry

13. To-do list. Pierce: Meet clients and kill people. Sarah: Meet clients and kill people and possibly go shopping. Cat doesn't have one because she is a chaos gremlin.

15. Bookcase. Pierce: Many Victorian banned and censored books, some vinyls, little statuettes, and old letters. Sarah: Old magazines and religious texts, very pompous but dusty, sometimes used for throwing at vampires in a pinch. Cat: enough candles to be a fire hazard, novels, huge art exhibition catalogues

Thank you, Tumblr, for showing me ads I absolutely don't want to see. I mean it in the most unironic way possible.

Maybe I'm a paranoid mediaeval minion, but I get absolutely horrified whenever an Internet platforms shows me ads featuring something I searched for just once, seconds ago, on another platform. It makes me feel stalked.

(Unimpressed cat is Daniel Meowlloy from my Interview with the Vampurr "Disregard!" comic)

Goodness, what is going on?

Here are some stupid pics of my gremlin cat :3

(Maybe they can be a bit of help) <3

I HAVE BEEN BLESSED BY THE GREMLIN cat!

Every one of these photos is precious, but there's a special place in my heart for blurry cat pictures. Here's my stuffy gremlin as a tiny token of gratitude🥹 Thank you so much, Ghost!

(I was shooting him with a Lego gun. As an Experiment.)

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.

Stop feeding the goat, damn it! Anthony Inglethorpe, je te déteste.

Heaven knows the publishing industry has always been a savage garden to begin with. Now they're welcoming this demon goat to eat his fill. Shame on you, HarperCollins, and anyone who follows in their example.

I'm doing a Phantom of the Opera. I'm going to hold my manuscripts and climb into a coffin and never leave.

(Demon Goat design inspired by that tiny goat who started a cult in Helluva Boss. See here for why I draw AI as a goat.)
