Wanted to finish the fullbody ref chart for Vladi before my week off ends! 👀❤️

Vladi and his true vampire form in fullbody.

Read more under the cut! 👀

Full Name: Count Vlad V. von Strahd (alias Count Vlad V. Drăculea)

Nickname: Vladi

Birthday: 12th of August 1605 (Appears to be in his early thirties)

Born in: Strahd Manor, Transylvania, Romania

Height: 188 cm tall (6'2'')

Rank: Arch Vampire

Sexual orientation: Demisexual

Vladi is an enthusiast of classical music, especially baroque music, such as Antonio Vivaldi, George Frideric Handel and Domenico Scarlatti. He loves art and opera, his favorite being „Giulio Cesare“, which he has seen no less than 1650 times. He plays several instruments including the organ, violin and harpsichord. However, he prefers to spend his time at the piano and is an excellent pianist. He describes playing the piano as a kind of meditation and relaxation.

He is also very interested in history and has read his family‘s entire library several times during the centuries he has lived. In addition, he has attended every renowned university in Europe over the centuries in order to expand his knowledge.

He has a soft spot for Baroque and Rococo fashion and often mentions that he misses these periods. His closet consists mainly of black Victorian frock coats and vests. He frowns on all fashion after the 19th century and would never wear any of it. He pays great attention to a well-groomed appearance and hates being dirty or unkempt.

He is smart, charming, eloquent and well aware of his intellect, which makes him come off as arrogant most oft he time. He has excellent manners and social skills.

As an arch vampire and scion of the Dracula bloodline, he is very powerful and has a wide range of abilities.

Vladi dedicated his first hundred years to the study of vampirism and his own psychic abilities, which is why he is the most powerful vampire in the bloodline right after his grandfather. According to a prophecy, Dracula's soul is to be reborn from his blood and thereby lead the Dracula line to become the supreme vampire bloodline. He is therefore hunted by an organization of lesser vampires who have set themselves the goal of killing the heir to the Dracula bloodline in order to prevent this from happening. (…)

(Vladi is my OC from my novel „A story of blighted souls“)

What instruments do you like (other than your own)? :)

cello is one of if not the sexiest instrument/s out there. for starters. and erhu is like cello's sexy cousin

i think horn, in the hands of a skilled player, is a beautiful sound, and a choir of 2-4 horns is just Gorgeous. listen to the overture to der freischutz (and/or va tacito from giulio cesare) and you'll understand me

mandolin, and its lesser known sibling the mandocello (LOVE the mandocello...). i grew up on american country and folk music so i love that mandolin twang (banjo too) but i also really like baroque music. do you know how many concerti vivaldi wrote for mandolin?? it's great stuff

lately i've been listening to a good deal of classical clarinet solos and i think of the (standard orchestral) wind instruments some of the best soloistic writing out there belongs to classical clarinet.

STEEL DRUMS. i have an inordinate fondness for steel drums. i loooove the sound, whether it's one pan in a mixed group or solo, or a whole steel band. there is something so joyous about the sound of steel pan (bright for the high tenors, smooth and mellow for the double guitars and basses...) and i think they're much more versatile than people generally consider them to be. steel drums!!!!

#yes i played in a steel band when i was little but i haven't played in over a decade so i'm not counting it as one of my own instruments #it's truly one of my absolute favorite sounds. gorgeous gorgeous instrument #sasha answers #anon #ty!#i like a Lot of instruments so i just named a few #i think any instrument can be beautiful if it's played well but these are just some of my faves

Il cimitero monumentale di Alessandria grazie alle diverse iniziative di valorizzazione culturale, viene inserito nell’“atlante dei cimiteri italiani”.

Il cimitero monumentale di Alessandria grazie alle diverse iniziative di valorizzazione culturale, viene inserito nell’“atlante dei cimiteri italiani”. Nell’attuale edizione dell’“Atlante dei cimiteri Italiani” presentato alla fiera di settore “TANEXPO” che si è svolta a Bologna dal 4 al 6 aprile, è stato inserito il cimitero monumentale di Alessandria; la pubblicazione è uno degli obiettivi stabiliti nel Protocollo d'Intesa siglato nel 2016 tra Utilitalia-SEFIT (Servizi Funerari pubblici Italiani) e Ministero della Cultura (al tempo era denominato Ministero dei Beni e delle Attività Culturali e del Turismo), finalizzato all'individuazione di azioni condivise di promozione turistica e valorizzazione culturale dei cimiteri monumentali e dei luoghi della memoria. Per ogni cimitero è presente una scheda in cui sono comprese informazioni su orari, posizione geografica, curiosità, indirizzi utili, una breve descrizione del sito, una selezione di monumenti e tombe di particolare rilevanza storico-artistica, indicate anche in mappa, e una selezione di monumenti e luoghi della città che presentano legami con quelli individuati all'interno del cimitero. Questo inserimento è un buon risultato corsi conseguito grazie alle iniziative di valorizzazione culturale condotte sul sito cimiteriale cittadino secondo il Patto di Collaborazione sottoscritto tra il Comune di Alessandria e la Sezione di Alessandria di Italia Nostra APS, a cui aderisce la società “Gestioni Cimiteriali s.r.l.” che gestisce i servizi cimiteriali comunali. Sono otto i luoghi del Cimitero Monumentale di Alessandria pubblicati e si riferiscono alle tombe di note famiglie e personaggi cittadini: il compositore e musicista Pietro Abbà Cornaglia in connessione a Palazzo Cuttica di Cassine, sede del Conservatorio “Antonio Vivaldi”; la famiglia Borsalino in relazione al “Borsalino Museum”; l’artista Rodolfo Gambini, la cui tomba era ornata da una statua dello scultore Attilio Strada autore del monumento eretto in memoria del pilota automobilista svizzero Carlo Pedrazzini ubicato in via Pistoia; l’industriale Angelo Verzetti il cui ritratto si trova presso la Pinacoteca dell’Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria “SS. Antonio e Biagio e Cesare Arrigo”, struttura di cui è stato benefattore; il patriota risorgimentale Andrea Vochieri in connessione alla Cittadella dove si trova la cella della sua detenzione; la famiglia Guerci in relazione all’omonima galleria situata tra via San Giacomo della Vittoria e via San Lorenzo; la famiglia Civaglieri Inviziati Sappa, in ricordo di Carlo Inviziati primo mecenate del noto scultore alessandrino Carlo Caniggia, autore del bassorilievo raffigurante “Alessandria che premia le Belle Arti” ubicato nella Sala Giunta del Palazzo Comunale; infine la famiglia Valizone in relazione al Duomo cittadino. Sull’argomento è degna di segnalazione l’intervento svolto in occasione della conferenza d’apertura dott.ssa Renata Santoro, coordinatrice TTL Nazionale di Valorizzazione cimiteri italiani Utilitalia-Sefit e Responsabile Promozione e Valorizzazione cimiteri Torino che proprio per la presentazione della pubblicazione ha trattato il tema: “L'arte e la storia dei cimiteri quale potenziale utile per tutte le realtà”; in quest’ambito sviluppato l’argomento “patrimonio cimiteriale italiano portato alla luce” toccando aspetti sociologici, antropologici, artistici, economici e normativi con l’intento di porre nuove prospettive in merito alle relazioni fra comunità e cimiteri, essendo questi ultimi un vero e proprio “patrimonio” di riferimento; una tematica che coincide con gli obiettivi promossi per la citata opera di valorizzazione del cimitero monumentale di Alessandria.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

fic: barefoot in the kitchen

written for the 2021 chayenzo community fanfic challenge by @the-chayenzo-community !!!

dialogue prompt:

“close your eyes, and hold out your hands.”

read on aoc: here

“Are you listening to me?” Cha-young asked, her voice loud, and cutting him out of his reverie. They were sitting at the bar of some upscale restaurant, and the long day was beginning to catch up with him. He looked up at her, bewildered.

“Sorry, Ms. Hong. I must have…” he trailed off awkwardly, because she was pressing the back of her hand to his forehead, frowning in apparent concern. “What are you doing?”

“Just checking.” She raised her eyebrows comically. “If the great Mr. Mafia lawyer-”

“Stop calling me that-”

“-is not paying attention at all times, then something is surely wrong with him!” she finished victoriously, and when he said nothing, grinned at him, wide and beaming. Her face was slightly flushed, and her smile was nearly blinding in its intensity, and it had the combined effect of making him want to-

He shook his head, inwardly cursing at himself. “I’m fine. I was just thinking about next week. We need to figure out what we’re doing about the illegal stock acquisitions.”

She nodded, and turned serious. It was admirable how she could do that, how she could push her drink away and take out her phone to write down their plans.

And if he moved a little closer to her, and let his hand rest a little longer than usual on her shoulder, well, that was nobody’s business.

-----

The next day, he barely saw her. When he arrived at the firm in the morning, three cups of coffee in hand, she was pulling on her coat. She took her coffee from him, smiled in thanks, and breezed out the door, leaving him staring after her.

“I think she said she had some errands to run,” Mr. Nam said, pointedly ignorant as always, taking his cup from him. Vincenzo nodded, and set his briefcase down. He opened his computer, set down his cappuccino, and soon was lost in the case files that he had uploaded the previous day. Mr. Nam periodically asked him for some document from the shelves, but for the most part, they worked in silence. When the quiet got too much, he put in his earphones to listen to Guilio Cesare, one of his favorite operas and one that he had frequently gone to watch in Milan, when he had some free time. When he had tried to show it to Cha-young, she had fallen asleep on his couch, and he had had to put her feet up on the cushions and cover her with a blanket for the night.

Around noon, there was a memorable incident involving the monks, a runaway cat, and a feline fur allergy, which left poor Monk Chaesin covered in hives (before Ms. Jang stabbed him with an epipen), but other than that, the day passed by relatively uneventfully.

She didn’t come back to the firm at all, which was highly unusual for her. He had grown used to hearing her move around the room, talking either to them or on the phone about anything and everything, and felt the silence most keenly, especially when Mr. Nam took out his own lunch, leaving Vincenzo to wander on his own to the snack bar for something to eat. Usually he would have gone out with Cha-young, and he couldn’t stop wondering where she was.

When he casually asked Mr. Nam if he knew, the older man had just fixed him with a knowing stare, and Vincenzo had hurriedly ducked out of the room, willing the blush on his face to disappear.

As it got dark, however, he was beginning to get worried. What if Jang Han-seok had decided that his lingering fondness for his sunbae didn’t matter anymore, and was having her kidnapped? He didn’t doubt that she could take care of herself (“Seven degrees in martial arts, Mr. Cassano. I’m practically a member of the mafia already”), but it wasn’t like her to go off the grid like this.

Then he scowled at himself. Remember, you get the gold, ruin Babel, and leave. There’s a beach house in Malta waiting for you. Nothing else.

But sometimes, he saw Mr. Nam lighting up with an idea, saw Mr. Lee trying to mimic the clicking of his lighter, saw his mother’s eyes soften when he walked in, saw Cha-young (when had he stopped thinking of her as Ms. Hong?) snort with laughter as he broke out sweating after eating too-spicy noodles, and wondered if it couldn’t be something more. Would he be content to live alone in Malta all his life? Or had he grown accustomed to the people and the life around him, to the point where he couldn’t imagine living any way else? To the point where he was beginning to think of the one-bedroom Geumga Plaza apartment with its tacky ceiling stars, as home?

Could he imagine living without her?

It was a question that had crossed his mind too many times to count, and each time he had banished the thought, because that led to a dangerous road, and he didn’t need all the feelings associated with it. He needed to stay focused, and think about his next moves, and how to outsmart his enemies.

But his mind kept going back to her.

He shook his head at himself as he turned his key in the lock of his apartment door. He got ready for the night, taking off his jacket, making a serving of ramyeon for dinner, and turning the TV on to play music from the classical channel. From the sounds of it, it was some Vivaldi concerto, hallmarked by its minor key and fast paced violin solo.

He was pouring himself a glass of wine when there was a knock at the door. He frowned, and set the bottle down. Flexing his fingers, he went to the door, and opened it.

Cha-young stood there, looking unbothered, holding an enormous box like it was nothing. She pushed past him into the apartment and set the box down on the counter.

As she flopped unceremoniously onto his couch, and picked up his wineglass by the stem, he suddenly felt a hot flush of something. He inhaled shakily, and realized what it was.

He had been going out of his mind worrying about her. She hadn’t picked up any of his calls, and had been incognito all day, and now she was acting like nothing had happened? He exhaled sharply, and she looked up, sipping from his glass, her eyebrows high on her forehead.

“Where have you been?”

“I was shopping. Why, does it matter? Am I not allowed to take a day off?” She stood up, crossing her arms. She stepped forward until she was in his space, and he backed up until his hip hit the kitchen counter.

“No, it’s not that, I just didn’t know where-”

“Why does that matter?”

And isn’t that the crux of it. Why does it matter to him? If she was nothing but his work partner, then he would have no problem with her leaving in the morning to run errands, and not return to work. He might rib her about it the next day, but he wouldn’t have worried this much, wouldn’t have thought up all sorts of horrible scenarios in his head, all of which involved him finding her, broken and dead.

He cannot think, not with her so close to him, so close that he can smell the wine on her breath that she had just drank, just drank from his glass, her eyes seeming to stare into his soul. He gripped the counter for strength. She tracked the movement with her eyes, and stared back at him.

“I was worried, all right? I didn’t know where you were and I was worried.” There. He’s said it. He ran his hands through his hair, and she stared at him for a long moment, seeming to come to a realization within herself. Then, she stepped back, and moved to get the enormous box from where she had placed it on the counter.

He stared at her.

“What is this?”

She rolled her eyes. “Just close your eyes and hold out your hands. You’ll see.” She pursed her lips when he did nothing, so he straightened up and closed his eyes, holding his hands palm up and feeling very stupid. He could hear her moving, and the sound of the box opening. She moved closer, and he got a whiff of her perfume. When he had first started working with her, he had hated it, because it had been some American brand. They had had a long debate where he had taken her to a perfume store and tried to get her to appreciate one of the many luxury European brands, but she had been steadfast in her defence of Tom Ford, and that had been that. He had grown to associate that scent with her, and the other day, had caught a whiff of it at the bank and had looked around like a fool, for her.

Now, it was all he could make out, because she was standing out of reach from him, still doing something with the box. He felt like he had that day he had lost the bet about the bungeoppang, when he had waited, eyes closed, utterly at her mercy, for her to flick him on the head. He felt warm, like the temperature had suddenly increased by several degrees.

She moved closer to him, finally, and placed something flat in his arms.

“You can open your eyes now.”

He did, and looked down, baffled. She had gotten him a record player. On top of it were several records of-

“Opera?” he asked, looking up at her. She smirked, looking smug.

“Yes. I got your playlist from Mr. Nam, and bought the records for them, as well as a few that I thought you would like as well. I did so much research for this, you have no idea. It was so boring, so you should be grateful.” He stared at her in shock.

She had gone out and bought a record player, so he could listen to his favorite genre of music the way that God had intended: via vinyl record. It was nearly identical to the one that he had had back in his apartment in Milan. How did she know? She was smiling at him, waiting for his reaction, and her eyes were on him like he was something marvelous, luminous, and he swallowed a lump in his throat.

Suddenly, in that moment, he realized that it really didn’t matter if he had his beach house in Malta or not. It didn’t matter if he had to fight Babel forever, because he would do it, he would do it all, as long as she was there right beside him. He could take on a god and he would win, because he would be able to look to his side and see her stare the god down with steel in her veins.

And before he knew it, he was moving. He set the record player down on the counter, carefully, and surged forward. Her eyes widened slightly, and he cupped his hand around her neck and drew her to him, his lips finding hers. For a second, she was frozen, but she sighed into his mouth and responded, her one arm snaking around his back and the other hand threading through his hair. It felt like every place that she touched him was on fire, and he was floating through the superheated air.

It could have been minutes, or years, or seconds before she pulled back, and smiled brightly at him.

She leaned in to kiss him again on the mouth, and said, against his lips,

“You have no idea how long I have been waiting to do that, Mr. Mafia.” He goggled at her, too shocked at her and himself to complain, and she smiled again, the quirk of her lips teasing.

“Your ramyeon is burning.”

He cursed, moving quickly to the stove, trying desperately to salvage the ruined noodles. She came up behind him, wrapping her arms around his body from behind, and laughed, her chin on his shoulders, and it was the most intoxicating sound he’d ever heard. Her perfume drowned out the burned smell of the ramyeon, her hair tickled his jaw, and he couldn’t stop the smile from spreading across his face.

A warm feeling that had nothing to do with the weather spread through him, and it felt like coming home.

You dont have any cringe fandoms. What is cringe?! 👀😅 But also on a sidenote what are your fav operas? Out of curiosity :D

My favourites are where my interests in 17-18th century opera and ancient Rome meet!

Monteverdi's L'Incoronazione di Poppea

Handel's Giulio Cesare in Egitto

Vivaldi's Catone in Utica

Mozart's Mitridate re di Ponto

and most of all, Mozart's Lucio Silla.

There are also two that have not been staged for a long long time, but I remember about them always! Obscure conspiratorial operas if you will! They are

Salieri's Catilina

and Bianchi's La Morte di Cesare.

BRUUUUUH Okay it took a second to think, but that's just the coffee still trying to kick in, because when I thought of it I JUST KNEW!! GAAAAAHH "I Wish You Would Write a Fic Where .... BARBARA AND WALTER GO TO AN OPERA TOGETHER AND WATCH IT. Perhaps on a double date with Nomura and Lenora? Ooo with like ticket shenanigans, and OPERA/THEATRE DISCOURSE. pt 1

Walter trying desperately to enjoy the show while Nomura and Lenora desperately try not to sway Barbara into enjoying their specific tastes (Your pick. Although I’ve always HCed Nomes being very Romantic(™) but like, I know we’ve talked fdkgldfk no worries haha) BECAUSE

the meat and potatoes is just: A fic using a ~FANCY~ double date scenario where you can let /your/ love of opera fly!!! However that happens is just [chef kiss]

nico please i've already gone through the trouble of inventing an elaborate, in-depth hc for How Glamours Work For Changelings After The Eternal Night do NOT give me more places to use it in

they go to see handel's giulio cesare in egitto. there is a lot of debating initially because Hard Agree, nomura is indeed a Romantic, but lenora's tired of verdi and vivaldi's orlando furioso is too many layers of charlemagne rpf for barb to deal with so [public school history teacher voice] "surely we can all agree on the entertainment value of the roman civil war, yes?"

they rent a whole box, partly bc idk glamours get uncomfortable after a while or sthg but also partly because strickler is old and fucking loaded, and wants to give barb as close to The Real 1724 Experience™ without also cheering on fistfights breaking out in the pit. they end up paying attention through everything, even the recitatives, because barb is amazed at how they're just—chanting, walter, they're still singing even the boring parts in between all the feelings. and nomura might roll her eyes a little bit but then lenora cuts in with some sort of unhinged dramatic theoretical comment and all she can think is: well. maybe i'm glad i didn't murder the little bastard back in edirne, after all.

the fic is entitled caro/bella or something else similarly suitably schmoopy and pretentious. i get to work in at least one dumb anecdote about how strickler definitely knew senesino, or something, bc that man was up to Shenanigans and i feel like strickler would think his weird hot-and-cold employment with handel is hilarious; nomura gets a little misty-eyed when caesar and cleopatra reunite; and we all go home with just a little more appreciation for baroque opera. i may die content.

#creativenicocorner #q&a #ask games #wip tag #this is the grownup version of 'baby lenmura goes to phantom of the opera'#i love it. i LOVE it #lenmura #stricklake #(i've got 2 more of these but foolishly attempted answering while... v sleeby)#(i'll get back to them tomorrow!! thank you for sending them in!!)

been a week - i am only going deeper down the Christine and the Queens hole. seeing a lot of poalof parallels - she grew up listening to Vivaldi, recently, she went to the #noustoutes protests, frequently talks about the male gaze, and i just 👀 i really wonder if she saw this movie and what she thinks of it bc i think she'd be all over it😌

Yes!! She’s a big feminist for sure :) And yes she did see it ! A couple of days ago she was interviewed about the Cesar and more. You can find it here (it’s in French but maybe there’s an automatic translation ? Don’t have the strength to translate all of this aha).

She also talks about Portrait, the female gaze, Adèle’s testimony, gender violence etc. And also about her shock of seeing Polanski win. And she said that she started by doing theater but she felt crushed by that men’s world basically. And that’s why for a moment she wanted to be a man.

Sinopsis

Philippe, un aristócrata millonario que se ha quedado tetrapléjico a causa de un accidente de parapente, contrata como cuidador a domicilio a Driss, un inmigrante de un barrio marginal recién salido de la cárcel. Aunque, a primera vista, no parece la persona más indicada, los dos acaban logrando que convivan Vivaldi y Earth Wind and Fire, la elocuencia y la hilaridad, los trajes de etiqueta y el chándal. Dos mundos enfrentados que, poco a poco, congenian hasta forjar una amistad tan disparatada, divertida y sólida como inesperada, una relación única en su especie de la que saltan chispas.

2011: Premios Cesar: Mejor actor (Omar Sy). 9 nominaciones

El argumento está basado en una historia real que los directores vieron en un documental en el año 2004. En Francia fue un extraordinario éxito de público, estando 10 semanas consecutivas como nº1 de taquilla, lo que la convirtió en la segunda película francesa más taquillera de la historia en su país, tras "Bienvenidos al Norte" (2008). Con todo su éxito fuera de Francia fue igual de impresionante: con una recaudación mundial total superior a los 426 millones de dólares, 'Intocable' se convirtió en el film de habla no inglesa más taquillero de la historia del cine (superando al film japonés 'El viaje de Chihiro').

Una película muy humana, espero la disfrutéis 👍
