Panel 10 Caption: End Episode 2
yeehaw, baby!
I keep thinking about the possibiity of Arthur and John both dying, John going back to the Dark World... and Arthur not winding up in the Dark World but instead finding himself back in the Waylay.
His Blood & Sand is still waiting, right where he left it. This time it's accompanied by the person who ordered it for him: Parker.
And Parker says, hey, you're finally here, it's all okay now. You've been through all kinds of hell, but now it's over. You can rest. We'll go find your little girl, and you can be at peace together, and be done with all of the pain you've suffered. You can rest. Just come with me, okay?
Arthur's still a little dazed--not quite sure where he is or how he got here or why it's so strange to see Parker again, feels like maybe he's forgetting something important--but oh god he's tired and everything hurts, he knows that much, and going to be with Faroe and have all the time in forever to just be, without worries or fears, sounds like--well, he's not a believer, obviously, but it sounds like heaven. He agrees, and starts to follow Parker out of the bar to whatever's next.
And then the band starts playing a different song:
And you call it madness, oh, but I call it love...
And Arthur remembers what he's forgotten that was so important, and remembers who he'll be leaving behind if he goes this way. Who he'll be leaving behind, alone, in a dark and horrific place, forever. Who he once told he would find again, should they both find themselves in hell.
And Arthur Lester has a choice to make.

I’ve done about half of these myself in one WIP or another and a little detail here or there goes a long way in reminding the audience that this isn’t Kansas anymore.
The entirety of Dracula by Bram Stoker is really just:
Dr Seward: I wish we could figure out what’s wrong with Lucy.
Van Helsing: I figured it out immediately but I’m just going to let you solve it yourselves.
Dr Seward: Or you could just tell us.
Van Helsing: Friend John :( I have known you for one thousand years and you have been one of my very good friends and best students :( Do you not trust me? Why do you not trust me, friend John? Have I ever given you a reason to doubt me? Do you not think I have a good reason for withholding vital information? :(:(:(:( Have faith in me, your very old and good friend.
Dr Seward: You’re right :(
Lucy: I love everyone so much and I’m going to tell them every day 🥰💕 also legalise polyamory wtf
Renfield: look at all my pets that I’m definitely not eating 🪰🪰🪰🪰
Dr Seward: What happened to all the birds I gave you?
Renfield, with a mouth full of a feathers: I have no idea.
Arthur: I think… I miss my wife… also how the fuck didn’t we realise Dracula’s house was right next door?
Quincey: I keep saying I’m not that smart but I’m the only one to immediately point out that something was actively taking Lucy’s blood. Brb need to go shoot a giant bat with a gun.
Mina: I am the only person keeping this shit show together. We literally would not have made it without me and no one who adapts my character seems to get that. Women are the heart of this story. I am the glue that binds this group together. I just want ONE MOVIE that understands that and values my intelligence, which is at the forefront of my character.
Renfield: I have an entire character arc but don’t expect any adaptations to show it.
Quincey: ok but what if… we shot Dracula with a gun??? Also stop fucking cutting me from all the adaptations.
Jonathan: has seen indescribable horrors, is a shell of his former self, will literally never be what he was before going to Transylvania
Dracula: oh Jonathan! 🥰🥰🧛🏻🧛🏻🥰🩸🩸🥰🥰
BONUS: everyone is constantly holding hands, especially all of the men, and talking about how they’re going to be best friends forever. The male friendships in this book are shockingly pure and the women are incredible. The Crew of Light are actually the only found family ever, I think.

Biting
(Contains blood & vampirism)
Villain was surprised when their most trusted henchman came up to them with a nervous expression on their face. “What is it?“ Villain asked. “We’ve found and captured [Hero].“ Villain raised an eyebrow. “That’s a good thing… why the apprehension?”
Henchman pursed their lips. “They’re… sick, but we can’t figure out why.” Villain had a feeling they knew what was wrong. “Have they said anything?“ “No, they can barely speak, they aren’t moving. We found them on a patrol and literally had to just scrape them up. No wounds, no fever, nothing to explain it.“
Villain frowned. “Let me go and see. Perhaps I can find a way to help.”
Villain found them tied down on the bed, their breathing raspy, barely even existent. Villain studied their still body for a while, judging, assessing. They knew Hero’s secret. They were one of very few if not the only one who knew. They were a vampire, and judging by the state of them, they were beyond starving.
Villain sat down on the side of their bed. “What trouble have you gotten yourself into?” they mumbled. Villain looked behind them to see their Henchman still standing. “Give us a minute. I think I need a word with our dear hero.“
Henchman raised their hands in mock surrender and left Villain to it. They were good like that. They never asked too many questions, they trusted Henchman completely. Villain turned their attention back to Hero and carefully tilted their head to the side. “You’d better give me a very good explanation after this…” Villain rolled up their sleeve and offered Hero their exposed wrist. Hero managed a groan, but they didn’t bite.
Villain pressed their wrist against Hero’s lips, waiting patiently until they finally lashed out in a sudden movement. Villain grunted and closed their eyes tight, battling their urge to snatch their hand away. But they waited, and soon the pain faded off while Hero fed. Villain stroked their hair carefully and waited until they could move, until they had enough to reach forward and try to grab more. Villain waited for as long as they dared before taking their hand away and pressing a handkerchief tight against the wound. The bleeding would stop soon thanks to Hero’s saliva, but they couldn’t afford to lose much more blood.
“I’m sorry,“ Hero rasped, licking their lips. “I…“ “You needed it,“ Villain answered flatly. “Though how I’m going to explain this is going to be a difficult thing indeed.“ “I’d been trying to find you, but I didn’t have long… [Other Villain] had kept me locked up. [Villain], they know my secret a.and I don’t know what to do.“
Villain continued to stroke their hair. “I’ll see what I can do. But for now, you need to rest.” “So do you,“ Hero answered weakly. “That… that was a lot. I’m sorry…“ “Don’t worry about it, but after this, we are even, you understand?“
Hero nodded hesitantly.
