not to wedge a disabled element into one of my fav story albums but basing on Daniel's dad treating him, Daniel could have been hiding/masking a longtime disability (likely neurodivergence since he's said to be uncontrollable and withdrawn yet being based on Tommy Karevik he's a strapping young lad, so who knows)
and so maybe Daniel being so quickly fond of Abby grew deep after just that love at first sight
maybe within just the first few days Abby easily understood Daniel because they're both misfits; as it looked in the comic, Abby seemed to be the only young black woman among the housekeepers and thus her own workmates would have bullied her too
both of them would have struggled big time just to get to talk to each other but my gosh you could imagine the times she fixed his bed and cleaned his room on her own accord, Abby nursing Daniel when ill or injured, the hiding places they snuck in, the intimacy of conversations about what their late moms were like, Daniel's little envious appreciation for Abraham who was a better dad to Abby than his own to him, to hell with the divide between black and white
moments so slow they lasted forever when Daniel was with Abby and they liked it that way
when Daniel was kicked to the house at the graveyard he didn't hesitate to shed his rich kid upbringing, get his hands dirty as he helped Abby make a home for themselves of that old place
his heart raced to the flow of Abby's voice whenever she questioned him, “are you sure?” “do you need help?” out of force of habit
maybe that one fateful night he'd pulled a muscle or his body was really just fatigued from so much activity the day or so before (granted, Daniel had already been working harder since moving out of the manor)
when the fire spread, Daniel couldn't escape as quickly as he'd hoped
the last Daniel heard from Abby beyond the panels of the introduction might have been Abby promising to get help
but given everything: the distance she ran, the gossip she overheard, Abby collapsing under the weight of guilt at her dad's house, everything took its time and its toll and help arrived too late
Daniel thought Abby left him forever and spent his final breaths fighting that thought because how could she?
maybe that's why his last word was why? no, no
maybe just maybe

what's an Alfred-coded guy got to do to be turned into a vampire round here?? I'll even wear a pink frilly coat if it pleases the masses.
reblog if vampires are valid and your blog is a vampire safe zone

If Neil & Todd weren't in love then why'd they act like that

Lore crumbs at the bottom:
"During Coda when Arthur is sent to Addison Rue goes with him, however when Arthur asks Kayne to bring John back Arthur apologizes to Rue for getting her in this mess and Kayne offers to take her back home safely, that she wouldn't be hurt again. For the prize of her forgetting as well.
Rue protests, begs Arthur to not take the deal. She can't go back to New York, there is nothing for her there. She doesn't want to forget and live in the unknown again. She doesn't want to be alone again. But it's for her own good Arthur thinks.
"She'll be better off without me." And he agrees to the deal and Rue wakes up back in New York. She doesn't know how she got there or why she's calling out a name she doesn't remember."
They make me ill yippie/s
Been a while fellas. Figured I'd post an art dump for the time being!
Now, for the record, I LOVE Treasure Planet. So, these headshots shouldn't be too much of a surprise. I watched this movie about 12 times over the past two weeks, seriously brings a lot of comforting feelings.
Flint takes center stage becuase he's my favorite. :D
oh and what's this?
A sneak peak eh? *Perhaps.*
