"the red means I love you" by Madds Buckley
Queer vampires are the elite of the society
I fell in love with melancholy
"I am sure, Carmilla, you have been in love; that there is, at this moment, an affair of the heart going on."
"I have been in love with no one, and never shall, unless it should be with you."
“I’ve been on the other side of dying for a very long time.”
“You mean the wrong side?” Derina’s voice teases and then leans in closer to murmurs, “This one’s much more fun.”
Her voice drawls on the last word, and Laila retorts, “Is that your plan? Die, resurrect, seduce an innocent man to depths of the ocean?”
“Hardly. You’re not a man, Ms. Kivris, or innocent for that matter.”
By the spirits, she’s an incorrigible flirt and probably responsible for a dozen stereotypes about sirens. Laila leans back to look at Derina better, the blood in her face running hot and keeps her mouth shut. She doesn’t trust her tongue enough right now.
The corner of Derina's lip curls up knowingly, her eyes wild and tipsy as they focus on her. Laila wets her lips and whispers, “What are you playing at?”
“Just a dance. We’ve got plenty of time until Marty kicks us out.” Derina tugs her hand but makes no motion to get up, brushing her thumb across Laila's knuckles.
Bet vampires would hate garlic powder.
THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, 1.16 ‘There Goes The Neighborhood’
Today on "tumblr ads that I wish were rebloggable":
I'm not wildly fond of tumblr ads promoting weight loss all willy-nilly, but the theming of this one combined with the fact that I saw it on a blog that I first followed for Dracula Daily posting has me losing it. Lose weight how, pray tell, dear tumblr ad? Lose blood weight? Because someone's drinking it? Am I going to be running through Transylvania because there's a vampire chasing me?
I lowkey want one of those "live laugh love" type house signs that says "come freely, go safely, and leave something of the happiness you bring" for the entryway of my house someday. I think it'd be hilarious, but it's also lowkey a nice greeting in its own way, if perhaps mildly ominous... What a nice way to set a welcoming vibe! ;)
Wait a minute, they used Na Na Na in Renfield, a vampire movie... Which presumably means that they paid My Chemical Romance for use of that song... Which means....
They finally did it. MCR got their vampire money!
Oooo okay, let me pick out some things from my Vampire Vibes playlist:
Uninvited, the cover by Red Sun Rising
Possum Kingdom by Toadies
Little Monster by Royal Blood
Nocturnal Me by Echo and the Bunnymen
Animal by Badflower
Out for Blood by Sum 41
Animal, the cover by Chase Holfelder (it’s not the same song as the Badflower one)
There’s more on the playlist but I think those are the most evil and s*xy :)
send music recs for a playlist about sexy evil vampires
Every My Chemical Romance song featuring vampires, drawn as vampires.
Can you guess which one is which? Answer under the dumb doodle I did on the bus
1: L-R: Sharpest Lives, Vampire Money, 2: Vampires Will Never Hurt You.
(Shoutout to @nalesnik-z-morela I'm sorry when you first told me about MCR my whole review was "there was a lot of screaming" I'm now obsessed, so you see, I got my comeuppance.)
Aahh, thank you for thinking of him, @greenfinchwriter 😭

My braincell is officially Dead™️ so have this
Iffff you want to fill one in too here it is
Shoutout to @vladimirsangel for sending it to me that's it I'm going to kick my dead braincell around like a glob of pudding. Will link OG post when I'm alive again
OKAY GOT IT , kudos to @bitegore
Vampire's pearls.
My current coping mechanism is using a pair of big battered pliers to bend metal, so now there's another new item in my vampire hoard.
This is me now:
Be back to cat drawings this weekend. Busy week. And my brain's been weird for a while; it likely shows in my creations. I've got an eyeball ring on my desk right now, for crying out loud.
I think I drew an OC versus Creator thing a while back, but I can't remember what I've done with it, so here's one I drew today
I swear I'm not Undead, I'm just cynical as anything and spend too much time squinting suspiciously at people. How I can have such a happy vampire, I have no idea.
Quick sketch of my newest vampire. Unlike Pierce, October is a classic toxic heartthrob vampire with broody antihero problems, a long, bad history with damsels, and he rides a motorbike. In black leather clothes. Oh, geez.
He and Pierce are blood-feuding rivals.
Well, to be clear, October is out to get Pierce, but Pierce has a bit of a weak spot for people who hate him, as it were, so it's a one-sided relationship. On both sides.

The only context I can provide is the Zombie Aiden drawing. The rest is what happens when you let people communicate almost exclusively through jokes, art, and hyperfixations.

When I say I'm leaving you an inheritance of vampire jewellery, this is what I mean
Feed your vampire before you... frappé... them
Don't like frappuchinos? Have a juice box
I have also made fang rings, bat earrings, and a muscle bunny armour pendant. Oh, can't forget the nosferatu bag. I think being subtle about my preferences might not be my strong suit.
*sneaks in* Pssst, a-are you still interested in drawing prompts for that game?
If so,may I request any Erik of your choice, as well as little kid Pierce for 11?
Alternatively an OC of your choice for 15
Anyways,I hope you are well!!! Sending you good vibes and much love and admiration always!!!🥰💖💖💖💖
(No worries if you don't get to,or don't want to do this ask btw.)
I love your silly goober kitties so much💖💖💖💖
Hi, thank you for the ask and kind words! 💖💖
Prompt 11, OC at age 5. Here's Pierce at ages 5, 15, and 25:
Kiddie Pierce (though Pierce was not his name back then) had a nice, spoiled childhood, he only looks like that because they wouldn't let him hold his favourite rat while posing for his portrait - children often had long hair in his time, like this painting of Winston Churchill.
In his teens, Oscar Wilde had long hair, so so did he. Maybe we can convince him to wear his hair long again, at age 150.
25 was the year he became the vampire Pierce.
I swear I'll return for the rest of the prompts! I really want to draw Phantom cats again, but my brain won't leave me alone right now.
Send me prompts from this list!
Voilà, lots of sillies and... other things. If you wish me to elaborate, let me know 🤣
@vladimirsangel @blackforrestpunk @whyisthereacentaur @blackghostm2o @nalesnik-z-morela @ruvyn29 @greenfinchwriter No pressure tags, if like me you hesitate to post photos because you live in a gremlin nest and can't take any pictures without getting photo bombed by A) rubbish or B) demons, never mind!
First 3 photos are from past posts: Blood Box Bandits, Pharoga Kitty Kisses, Camp Vamp.

The last couple of days have been quite shite, so let's dress up and mess up a vampire. Perfect timing @vladimirsangel to request "Edgy Outfit." (Can you tell that neither of us knows what edgy means?)
Pierce, being Edwardian, thinks the second shirt means "happy and here to murder," and the third one, "I have a nice shirt."
(To clarify, Pierce is pansexual and should not be allowed to go clothes shopping unsupervised)
His friend and partners are supportive as always
For nonsense like this, send me a prompt from this list!
A vampire t-shirt I'm working on. The transfer paper won't unstick, so I've got to slowly scrub it off, but I managed to save Mr Pierce here.
Two tomato nosferatus are currently being excavated. They're mildly horrified.
I can't put the print in my shops because most of it is cheeky screenshots from Pinterest, but I'll post the results when I manage to salvage it
10. Pierce.
Ehehehehe have fun 😈
This is what we mean when we say our braincells added up only makes us worse, isn't it
Prompt 10: kiss with their lover. You didn't specify which one 😈
None-cat:
That's technically his ex, but I don't think he differentiates very well anyway. (I'm sorry, Pierce, my last braincell died, I didn't mean to randomly roast you.)
Ask or comment a number from this prompt list to get nonsense like this
I love Gerik the Cat and cat vampires that you have drawn! Could you draw Gerik as 12 — a supernatural being? He must be so cute with vampire fangs 💗
He's here! The vampurr of the opurra!
Gerik ticks all the vampire essentials except for the FANGS. He even has a Byronic shirt, and we all know Byron was the first model pretty vampire.
From this prompt list! Send in which items (and cats) you want to see! I already have two cat kisses in the wings... 👀
All POTO cats here!
The Kitten is absolutely smitten!
(Text in ALT because my handwriting is not... writing)
The ✨️wrist thing✨️:
You captured this dummy drama vampire perfectly! 🦇🎀 Kudos to drawing two very fine hands, I was struggling with mine, haha!
Art trade with @purrlockswatson! Their original vampire character, London Pierce ♡
He's just a cutie, disaster kitten
Pierce, pre-vampire turning, had many vices. Repressed memories, drowned in naïvety and substance abuse, is the darker side to his story.
However, in this latest short and silly (by my standards, at least) chapter, he's all chaos kitten, enjoy it while you can!
