Finally finished the last chapter of my Teddy Lobo/Reader fic, and I'm sharing it here! This chapter has no smut, but the first two do so its still NOT WORKSAFE.

I'm really happy with how it turned out and both surprised and happy that I managed to finish writing a multi-part fanfic this long.

thinking a kinda dub con relationship where you’re tentatively allowed to stay with the Sawyers as long as Bubba watches you and makes sure you don’t escape

he’s kinda keeping you as a pet but you can tell he doesn’t have totally innocent intentions for keeping you

anyway though. getting to a dubious relationship where you’re showing him sexual things for the first time and he’s nervous but actually wants to make you feel good too

he’s learning what you like and what makes you feel good, so he can return the favor since you’ve been getting him off

Why is the hops monster on this craft beer box so hot?

#I barely post anymore on this blog and this is what I bring? #if he was in a video game you can’t tell me people wouldn’t be drawing hot fanart and writing fics about him #but instead he’s confined to just being on a piece of cardboard for a triple pack of beer flavors #and that’s kinda sad #I don’t drink beer but I like the packaging

in a horny lil haze again thinking about Brahms asking to play house with you. you’re surprised he does not choose to be the baby this time

instead he decides to play the Daddy, and you’re his darling spouse of course.

at first you’re wondering if it means he’s going to take more an adult role with you - as he sometimes experiments through play and stories as a way to test the waters before making a decision.

but you quickly figure out what he wants. he lets you play with doll Brahms as your “baby” for about five minutes before you have to put him to bed, so you can go to bed with Daddy.

thinking he doesn’t waste any time getting down to it, taking you in bed in front of a mirror so he can tease you for what a slutty little mummy/daddy/etc you make. he doesn’t let go of his bratty ways, either, since he starts teasing you for how loud you’re being. what if you wake up the baby?

of course, once you start covering your mouth or making an effort to stay quiet, he just pounds you harder…

vague non con adjacent idea

imagine working in a haunted house with some kind of wax museum / living statue theme, and you’re one of the statues

imagine it’s a slow night, and Vincent Sinclair comes through alone, pausing to admire you up close.

you’re waiting for just the right moment to scare him, letting him get close enough to touch you. you let him, somehow.

he’s moving slowly and from what you can see of his half covered face, he’s handsome in his own right. maybe that’s why you let him touch the fabric of your costume?

it’s not like this guy is some pervert who’s trying to grope your ass or anything. he feels the fabric of your coat between his fingers and raises an eyebrow, nods, looks back at your face, and smooths your coat back down.

he looks around quickly. no one is nearby, and you can’t hear anyone coming up behind him, either.

the man reaches into your coat, feeling his way down your side - and stops.

he looks up at your face, eyes wide, and slowly pulls his hand back.

you grab his arm before he can get away.

“at least buy me a drink first!”

Finished another chapter for my Teddy fic! This one is less pwp-y but the whole work is STILL NOT WORKSAFE so please mind the tags!

#teddy lobo #tedward lobo #renfield #renfield 2023 #renfield movie #lite work #not worksafe #if you saw me post this on my side account no you didn't #I've got ideas for one more chapter!

[nightmarewritings]

Okay, my own Tedward Lobo boohoo post incoming, thanks to the deleted scenes. Sorry for retelling the plot ig.

As a rule, the most horrible stuff in a movie happens to comic relief characters (looking at Kevin, the "he can control rats with his mind" guy). And "Renfield" is a horror (!) comedy (!!), which makes things worse.

Teddy's family and, on a larger scale, the city itself is a rather closed system. And in this environment the only way to prove oneself is the kind of violence Teddy can't stomach. The deleted scene with him and Mandy downstairs makes it clear that Mandy is Bellafrancesca's favourite, the one who will probably inherit the empire because she /is/ ready to go far enough (regardless of if she's been conditioned or if she's just that brand of Weird Little Girl TM). Maybe Teddy has been behind the white curtain too and knows he'd rather not step in there again.

And yes, he tries to prove himself in small ways (like terrifying one specific cop), but the existence of Mandy as viable competition explains why he's always that high, why he brags so much, why he desperately wants to be taken seriously by Rebecca: he knows he's lost the family game. He's smart enough to know he's a failed cause, and he tries to drown that out and be more of a clown than he actually is because that feels safe. Because from this underachiever clown position you can still sometimes surprise people with your Lobo ruthlessness and feel, for a moment, that you're enough.

He can be a decent talker, and he probably thinks it's his strong side, because he constantly uses that as self-defense with his mom, Rebecca, and especially with Dracula to buy some time or soften the blow. That's the behaviour of someone who considers himself bad at /doing/ stuff. He really has internalized it.

But then there's Dracula and Renfield's divorce.

Dracula is historically the kind of villain who draws on the subconscious and brings out the worst in people. Cage's Dracula is less of a symbol and has quite a lot of personality, but everyone around still projects their insecurities onto him: Renfield knows he's not a good person and chooses to blame Dracula for all of that, and Teddy ends up as ""susceptible"" to Dracula's powers not because his mind is actually weaker or whatever (god that whole piece of lore was so antisemitic). Teddy simply gives himself up to Dracula because he already thinks he's worthless.  As in, worthless by himself, only good for someone else's business, a husk that doesn't stop being a husk because it was filled. It's a semi-conscious choice, but not a character flaw like Renfield's commitment issues. Teddy is less in it for the powers of a familiar (but sure, let's just call a visibly Jewish guy "greedy") and more for the security of being and /doing/ enough instead of just crashing and burning and bullshitting his way through life.

And again, Dracula is someone to whom you prove yourself with violence, as Renfield has done over the years while bringing him victims. And again, Teddy fails and gets killed in a pretty horrific way, played for coolness like a fighting game fatality hit. He can't be enough for the system he lives in, and he can't escape it even by giving his loyalty to an outsider (which he was genuinely ready to do because his mom's ally is his ally), and this internal conflict kills Teddy even before Bobby does.

But with all that insecurity going on, Teddy is loved, if in a condescending way - and he KNOWS that he's loved. One deleted scene that hurt to see was the moment when Teddy returns to the Lobo mansion and everyone is overjoyed, not just because of the money he throws around but because, well, he's still part of the family, their lovable doofus and the life and soul of their parties. And he strolls upstairs, confident that his mother will welcome him - and hearing the opposite actually comes as a surprise. He is loved, but not /trusted/ in the way Mandy is. He is not respected. Maybe if there was no love, he'd have a chance at leaving, but to those who love him, Teddy is loyal to the death where Renfield is a cheater trying to make his former family into a sob story for Rebecca.

Teddy's tragedy is that he could thrive and just be a fun dude in a different environment but he cannot see himself in any other context. He desperately affirms, again and again, "I'm Teddy fucking Lobo!" - both claiming he's a valid member of the family and announcing himself as a person. Except even in this case he doesn't use his full name, doesn't own its ridiculousness - he lacks the self-confidence for that. Always a Teddy, never a grown-up Tedward. Always a son, never the head of the household. From Bella to Mandy, the Lobo family might well be turning into a matriarchy anyway.

Tragedy is always about a person in the wrong circumstances, and this is highlighted by the yin yang thing: Teddy wants to inspire fear instead of pity, and Renfield wants to inspire pity instead of fear. Teddy wants to pretend he has more agency than he does, and Renfield wants to pretend he had less agency than he did. Teddy could probably enjoy some normal parties with no bloodshed involved, and Renfield could fit right into the Lobo family with his habit of self-righteously terrifying and dismembering those he kills/brings to Dracula (mind you, Dracula himself never mutilates the bodies that much, he usually does the bare minimun to kill a person).

It's all just kinda sad.

tl;dr Teddy makes himself more obnoxious on purpose because he's the loser older brother in a society he doesn't fit into and he knows it and copes through aggressive clowning but cannot get out except in death.
