truth is there is not a single ewan mitchell character i would not smash
"I abhor you" from Nosferatu
I AM NOT THE RESPONSABLE FOR THE PERSON I'M BECAME WHEN I SAW THIS!!!!!!!
i keep seeing people in their late teens/early twenties having a "[X] content intended for younger audiences does not feel satisfying to me anymore but i don't know where to start to branch out into adult fiction" moment and i thought i would give some recommendations for adult fiction for my fellow creepy crawly queer people. all or at least a LOT of it will be on the darker and more fucked up side bc i primarily engage with horror and thriller media personally but feel free to add on with more or recommendations from other genres :)
edit: i am continuing to add to this list so there might be new recs (highlighted in pink) in here every once in a while! also want to add that there's a variety of POC, queer, and disabled authors in here as well, i am also all of the above (asian, aro lesbian, poly, disabled) and tried to incorporate as many wickedly talented, compelling narratives as possible. that's all, happy reading!

Ewan Mitchell & Tom Glynn-Carney react to House of the Dragon Scenes
The betrayal scene was everything we could’ve asked for and I’ll tell you why.
Luke taking Percy to where he taught him how to fight. Percy being the one to figure out Luke’s the traitor and Like trying to defend himself. Luke realizing what we’ve all come to realize: that Percy is just like him. Percy, who has been screwed over by the gods over and over in the span of a few weeks. Percy, who has almost been killed and lied to and taken advantage of by gods he hasn’t even met. Luke Percy, who has been limited to what the gods want and what they think and what they believe.
The fireworks illuminating the two boys, one in blue and the other in red. One destined to save the world, one destined to destroy it. Two minds thinking alike but two souls acting in contrast.
Luke isn’t the bad guy in this story. He was a choice. He was the path that Percy just as easily could’ve chosen if Luke hadn’t chosen it first. If didn’t see the good in people the way he does or if loyalty wasn’t his fatal flaw.
I’ve read the books so many times and I’d be lying if I said I was 100% convinced Percy wasn’t going to join him. If I said I 100% didn’t agree with Luke or believe he was in the wrong. If I said I didn’t wish that something could’ve changed this time and one boy saved the other before the end could begin.
how does it feel to be surrounded by other delusional, left-wing scumbags in that echo chamber you call a 'fandom'?
It feels pretty good, actually! I like being surrounded by people who share my values and ethics because it makes me feel safe and supported. But, more than anything, it feels really really good not to be surrounded by fascists.
feeling a little insane
percy saying “i’m done running from monsters” while they are talking about zeus potentially killing him I AM SCREAMING, for percy there is no difference between a monster out to get him and a god out to get him because their reasons are never ever justified. what defines a monster anyway? looking like one? nope. acting like one. and a god targetting a literal child is acting like a monster. this dialogue, holy shit. or rather, unholy shit.
