That’s how it happened?

No. The Gift of Darkness requires more than that, as you’ll see.

Interview with the Vampire (1994)

join the Thor fandom. Love his braided hair.

Aw, thanks! Re: the braided hair, I think there’s some fanon about the braids symbolizing smtg, too. Can’t find it. But hair in general was a big deal… CONVENIENTLY I just saw this post with this comment on it:

See the thing is in Norse culture long hair was a sign of status. When the vikings brought back slaves they would cut their hair off. It was a symbolic loss of freedom. For Thor, royalty, the crown prince to have his hair cut off it was a sign of loss and humiliation.

That person might know more about the meaning behind braids specifically in Norse culture, and is invited to comment on this post 😀

To make this a VC-related answer too bc you know I can’t help myself… Claudia is shown with her hair up when she is trying to look more like the adult she is inside, and cutting it won’t do in movie!IWTV bc it would instantly grow back.

[X I went to the trouble of giffing out FOUR clips for this memeything it behooves you to at LEAST check it out]

BUT ANYWAY I loved Ragnarok! All the not-Thor characters were great, too. The Grandmaster, Valkyrie, HELA OMG, Hulk, LOKI, Heimdall! So much humor and a lot of heart. Of course, as a child of the 80s the film spoke to me aesthetically, too.

The Thor fandom ppl are some of the kindest and most welcoming fandom ppl I’ve met on this site! I could never abandon my VC ppl but… Thor… *dreamy sigh*

Saw so many suggestively, luxuriously posed St. Sebastians at the Louvre, you don’t even know. 

@lilliburlero I feel like this might make you laugh

I trust you have all read Mallory Ortberg’s The Martyrdom Of Saint Sebastian, In Ascending Order Of Sexiness And Descending Order Of Actual Martyring

This is a thing. As an art historian I can confirm.


This one doesn’t even have any arrows in him, there aren’t any arrows even in the picture, he’s just falling over and not-wearing a beautiful crimson robe, he is just dying of HAVING A BEAUTIFUL PRE-RAPHAELITE MOUTH” [x]

This is the hauntingly beautiful Shelley Memorial at Oxford. Commissioned to “depict” how his drowned body looked washed ashore. I hope to view this in person one day. Photo source: http://hcshakespeare.blogspot.com/
