Results are in... of course. How can I forget that this blog is haunted by Phans? Fluffy Erik it is.

I'm pretty sure I'm powerless to resist making more than one (if not all of them) eventually, so no need to break your brain trying to choose just one.

Remember when I talked about the good old-fashioned vampire-smiting method of sucking their gums? That's definitely what's going on here.

Also, Book Dracula and his Van Helsing:

In my defence, I have none. Very proud of how I drew Monster Dracula's face. Good bye.

Elf Vampire

Elf Vampire

Well... that's one way of evading the vampire hunters. Pierce is not beating the Christmas Elf allegations.

In spite of his delightful personality, he does have some bad vampire tendencies. Stalking and hiding in high places, for example.

Elf Vampire

At the moment, I'm putting him through some pain in my book (complicated backstory comes back to bite him in the behind), so let him have some fun.

Cleopatra (middle) Makes Her Vampire Partner Pierce (right) And His Ex Alexander (left) Watch Phantom

Cleopatra (middle) makes her vampire partner Pierce (right) and his ex Alexander (left) watch Phantom of the Opera (1990).

To clarify, Pierce likes rats. In a completely normal way.

(All characters are from my WIP Gothic Tales from Melancholia)

He's right over my desk, and I feel him judging me. Very annoying. He'll be happy there.

As for the gingerbread vampire, I didn't get instructions about how to feed you, Innocent, and I'm pretty sure it hurt him more than it hurt you.

This Is The Situation. Please Advise.

This is the situation. Please advise.

He stole my gingerbread man, and I found he's made a sort of den in my bookshelf.

...I should just leave him there, shouldn't I?

This Is The Situation. Please Advise.

Ahhh yeah. About that. Both my main OCs are a bit obsessive about nesting. Innocent favours inconvenient places, so anywhere he'll be most in the way or most annoying to have to walk past all the time. He also loves puzzles so sitting right atop Cain's Jawbone will make him feel right at home.

He has some feedback on the baking, by the way.

This Is The Situation. Please Advise.

You're A Mean One, Mr Grinch πŸ’…πŸ»

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.

What's The Tea? (News!)

Good morrow!

Here, I get up to shenanigans with fellow artists, review and ramble, post my writing, crafts and PoTO art because reasons.

My main blogs:

Book/history blog: @purrlockholmesbooksblog

Main art blog: @purrlockholmesbooks

My Gothic literature fanfic Gothic Tales from Melancholia is on AO3

The illustrated t-shirt does exist.

What I welcome in my ask box:

-Art requests are always welcome! I mainly draw, but will also get (hand)crafty if you have good, or unhinged, ideas.

-Asks about drawings, writing, OCs and projects.

-Asks for opinions/reviews of books, films, etc. I love researching and jabbering about my findings.

-Personal questions that won't help any unsavoury individuals to find me in real life (i.e., by all means ask me about my existential crises, but not about my nationality).

Someone challenged me to write a romance.

Call it my special brand of braincell torture, but I decided to take it further.

I shall try to write something sweet with a happy ending, with no gloomy-doomy self-inserts, no characters with 1,800 personal problems and absolutely no long discussions about the meaning of life, the justification of murder, love, loneliness, alienation, complicity, or suchlike.

Somebody help. I don't know how to write anymore.

I don't dare to say no vampires. Do you want me to be absolutely miserable?

In Which Leroux Erik Meets His Descendants. He Is Not Impressed.

In which Leroux Erik meets his descendants. He is not impressed.

I started this before I read Kay's Phantom (yes, it took me that long to finish), so sadly, that kooky Erik is not present. He'd probably murder all the other Eriks.

Inspired by this post by @blackghostm2oart

My rambles about all these adaptations here.

Erik live reaction:

Erik Live Reaction:

(This happens every week. Erik should not be allowed near good WiFi reception.) Vlad, it's beautiful. The little hairs on his wrinkly forehead are vital. And you used one of my favourite Raoul kooky quotes! My first little bald cat Erik has come so far *teary sigh*

"With Erik, You Never Know. Is It Erik? Is It The Cat? Is It The Ghost? No, With Erik, You Can't Tell!"

"With Erik, you never know. Is it Erik? Is it the cat? Is it the ghost? No, with Erik, you can't tell!"

@purrlockswatson has this fantastic version of Erik who is a Sphynx cat. So I thought I'd do a portrait of him because I really enjoy drawing cats. And Eriks.

Wrong answers only: What's Erik saying to the Persian?

Wrong Answers Only: What's Erik Saying To The Persian?

I found this among my Pharoga doodles (don't ask; they'll come up to menace you soon enough). I've clean forgotten what I was going to caption it. It looks like ✨️drama✨️.

So, wrong answers only: what's going on?

(More Persian and gremlin bald cat Erik here and here.)

@cecil-87 This Scene When He Took Off One Mask To Reveal Another Mask Beneath It Had Me On The Edge Of

@cecil-87 This scene when he took off one mask to reveal another mask beneath it had me on the edge of my seat. I went from 'Wait, are we going to see his face this early?' to laughing my head off so fast.

This is not a Christmas ghost...

This Is Not A Christmas Ghost...

Today on the Goober Cat advent calendar! Leroux's Erik doesn't like the mask, but I'm sure 1990 Erik would. He's got many fancy masks, after all.

This Is Not A Christmas Ghost...

Thank you to everyone who showed the Persian love! @jennyfair7 @angel-with-paper-wings @differenceenginegirl @lokislynx your reblogs are delightful!

A Christmas Carol, but Scrooge is dead.

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.

WAIT, this deserves a drawing reblog:

WAIT, This Deserves A Drawing Reblog:

Pierce, mon cher, that's nice, but your philosophy of 'You have problems? That's all right, me too!' is the reason you have so many relationship problems. And you're lucky Aurik is an angel who puts up with your shenanigans. (Your hair looks magnificent in any style, Aurik.)

Vlad, this is better than anything I could have imagined when I first started posting doodles of my disaster kitten Pierce, thank you 😹

Well, Aurik, You Did Say He Could Do Your Hair.

Two very different vampires

Two Very Different Vampires

Very nice, Pierce, but maybe don't flash your, ah, ankles. Dear Aurik is by @vladimirsangel

Originally, I only planned a doodle of smol Pierce next to Aurik because a midnight conversation turned from the division of chores in the Dracula household to vampire height difference. But it's been a weird week, and I kept adding to the sketches to unwind. I hope my 'stress art' makes some people happy, too.

On vamp fashion: Pierce's dressing gown is based on Klimt's The Kiss, reference to the Klimt-inspired robe in Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992). Aurik is NOT a brat; he probably borrowed the t-shirt from Vlad. His outfit is a combination of this Goth one and his Ugg boots.

And of course they are talking about chicken.

Somehow, These Long Minutes Make Me Depressed Instead Of Impressed Because Usually When I Put My Headphones

Somehow, these long minutes make me depressed instead of impressed because usually when I put my headphones on, it means something is feeling too much.

Somehow, These Long Minutes Make Me Depressed Instead Of Impressed Because Usually When I Put My Headphones

The rest of my top songs list has no significance because I'm stuck on free shuffle mode, but Fortnight I did play on repeat. It's the song I sing to myself when I'm panicking.

Of course my comfort song contains lyrics about murder.

Very proud that Webber made the list. After all, I only recently became Phantom-obsessed.

Right-oh, advertisement time. I'm not-so-well at the moment and can't muster the strength to make sense, so I'll just say that I went to menace the author with my excitement the moment I finished reading. And had to shorten my original message by half so as not to scare the living daylights out of him.
