I'm slightly concerned about the amount of alcohol and family parts Ressus carries in his cape.
Like, why don't your parents monitor what their 10 year old son is carrying in his cape?
Resus in the Series: this is scream street, let's not touch this, we'll end up dying because of you, Luke. If I were a real vampire it would be easier.
Resus no livro: Eu vou te morder. Vou lutar com o prefeito com uma espada. Luke, ataque! Tudo bem, eu tenho um pedaço de um parente para nos tirar dessa encrenca!
I just love this boy In both versions.
I had this thought and then these drawings came up! I would love to share my ideas for this child.
Totally inspired by Kian's design
I just finished reading Blood of Witch
I knew that Resus was walking a Tightrope. BUT I DIDN'T KNOW HE WOULD FALL. I was in shock when I saw that he actually fell, hit his head, lost a lot of blood and his bundles, two other CHILDREN, had to watch and carry him to emporium. Like, isn't that kind of heavy when you think they're 10 years old??
Is dropping a child from a building and making him bleed, and having his friend sacrifice something very important to save him, really children's literature?
That said, I'm loving it. Looking forward to the next one.
If Scream Street wasn't a children's series, think about how Resus would be a better character than he already is.
He's amazing and iconic, but there really isn't much character development like in more mature teen sagas, but Resus still manages to be a very complex character.
Se você observar com atenção, ele é uma pessoa que cresceu com uma deficiência física. Ele é muito amado por seus pais e familiares, e é constantemente "mimado" por eles, pois sempre recebe presentes (mesmo que sejam órgãos ou partes do corpo). É muito triste ver o quanto ele se orgulha de sua linhagem vampírica, mas ele nunca poderá ser como eles. É por isso que ele decidiu se adaptar. Ele usa unhas e presas falsas, que são úteis, mas ele não é o mesmo. E mesmo que às vezes fique triste com isso, ele compensa sua falta de habilidade física com sua inteligência, destacando-se em certas situações. Além de ser, claro, extremamente cativante e irônico.
SIt would have been really cool to see him grow over the years, I know he could have been an excellent leader one day. And despite his constant joking and being very ironic, he is very mature on some occasions
I know Cleo's story itself is about her not growing up, and Tee will probably never grow up either, BUT, I needed to imagine them as adults, I love this friendship
Imagine that Eefa did a spell for Cleo, I don't know. I mean, if the cat accidentally made a potion for him to have 777 lives, why can't a witch do the opposite too?
Can we talk about how perfect the Negative family is?
Resus is 10 years old, but in his intentions towards his family we see how independent and responsible he is. Okay, he is a bit weird, but he knows how to take things seriously when necessary.
He also takes charge of many situations without his parents having to ask him to. He is respected in his family environment, his opinions are taken seriously and his parents have never put his authority over him, treating him as an equal, even though he was very young.
He also talks several times about his vampire culture, actually taking pride in his lineage.
Kian is only 6/7 years old, but think about it, he managed to survive alone, without his mother, until he was found by the movers, while being chased by people with pitchforks!
Resus talks several times about the past of vampires, and explains that they developed agility and balance skills to escape pitchforks, torches and stakes, skills that he managed to inherit even though he was almost normal.
So, the vampire parents explain to their children from an early age about the history of vampire persecution, and teach and encourage them to be independent so they can survive on their own, even when supposedly out of danger.
I must commend the Negative family for the excellent creation of Resus. (Even though he carries body parts inside his cape and offends human rights with his jokes)
Did anyone ask for more Trevor drawings? No? Well, There it is!
Trevor meeting Shan! Despite his wolf side, I'm sure he loves the kitty, just like Resus!
I was thinking more about how Resus and Luke raise him, and I imagine Luke is much more liberal than Resus.
But here it depends on whether it's from the book or the series, because Resus in the book is much less careful than the Resus in the series, who is afraid of many things and even doesn't like to get into trouble with Luke's crazy ideas
Cleo adores her nephew, and is the only person Luke and Resus trust to let babysit.
A little bit of the trouble Cleo gets into in the 4 books (that I've read so far) could have been avoided if Luke and Resus stop to flirt for a minute and not leave her behind.
I love that even if they are with Cleo or Tee in the same scene, they ignore everything and just talk and exchange jokes with each other.
My list of favorite StSc books
The favorites, the ones I love, The good ones, The "whatevers" and the ones I don't like (Sorry Cleo, i love you but books about mummies are annoying!)
Trevor is shy, he likes to hide behind Daddy Resus's cloak
In the image on the side he is already 10 or 11 years old.
