(Kept in shorthand.)

31 May.— Dear diary, I couldn’t find my diary so I’m writing this on both of my Kung Fu Panda 2 DVDs.

The suit in which I had travelled was gone, and also my overcoat and rug

Dracula Daily has been a bit light on things I can provide images of recently, so let's have some Victorian overcoats.

The top left is a Chesterfield overcoat, which is also what the man on the left in the top right photo is wearing; his is double-breasted. A Chesterfield is a formal coat, which I think is why it's being paired with top hats here.

The bottom left is an Ulster overcoat, though if the cape were the same length as the sleeves it would be an Inverness overcoat instead. This is a less formal daytime coat.

On the bottom right is an advert for Mackintosh waterproof overcoats. They used fabric coated with rubber, an idea which dates back to the Aztecs, but which in the UK took off from the 1840s onwards.

I don't know what sort of overcoat Jonathan would wear for a long journey to Transylvania, but my guess would be an Ulster or Inverness.

Animal of the Day!

Western Giant Eland (Taurotragus derbianus derbianus)

(Photo by Philippe Boissel)

Conservation Status- Critically Endangered

Habitat- Senegal

Size (Weight/Length)- 1,000 kg; 3.5 m

Diet- Grasses; Fruits

Cool Facts- Being the largest species of antelope in both weight and length, the western giant eland is a force to be reckoned with. These giants are non-territorial with small herds being a combination of males and females. During the mating season, mature males separate from their main herd to create a herd of their own. Surprisingly, western giant eland are mostly nocturnal and spend their nights grazing on a variety of grasses. Due to their size and their surprising maximum speed of 70 kilometers per hour few predators outside of large lion prides and saltwater crocodiles have the chance of bringing down an adult giant eland. Sadly, the western giant eland is threatened by illegal poaching for their meat and horns and habitat destruction due to agriculture. Today, conservationists rush to save these beauties through off site breeding and national parks.

Rating- 12/10 (120 centimeter horns backed by 1,000 kilograms of pure muscle.)

What can I say of today that hasn't been said before? Nothing, really.

I'll just rehash, I guess iojpge

So, textbook abuse tactic here: commandeering all of Jonathan's belongings. His clothes, his papers, his envelopes, his money, his travel information... All he has is the clothes on his back and his journal.

I would say that if Jonathan were a woman people would recognize this better as abuse and not be making WIFI jokes, but truthfully if Jonathan were a woman, she would simply be scolded for "getting herself" into this situation. Though, the nonconsensual intimacy of having your clothes stolen would be better understood if the gender was swapped.

Let's focus on the implications of the clothes. What is Dracula going to do with those clothes, hm? Can't be anything good if he's doing anything at all. All the while, Jonathan will be forced to walk around in the same clothes, no doubt paranoid to even take them off for fear they'll be taken once he turns his head.

And what clothes is Jonathan wearing? These things went missing while he was asleep, so is he in his nightgown, or did he sleep in his day clothes the previous night? Or was it that only the suit he travelled in is gone, so he just has no clothes suited for that purpose?

Taking his papers and travel information means no more cries for help and no hope of travel. Dracula has stolen his voice and clipped his wings. And taking his clothes is another exercise of control over Jonathan's appearance. He cannot shave, he cannot change, he cannot look at himself. Dracula has done this to steal Jonathan's sense of self and take full control over his self-perception.

Dracula might even coyly remark on how put-together Jonathan looks next he sees him -- this look suits him so well! Meanwhile, Jonathan is entirely dishevelled because that is how Dracula wants him.
