Letters from Watson's The Sussex Vampire it is this evening! Such an itriguing title. A vampire? Really?

“You are right, Watson. I bet Watson glowed with pride at those words

The world is big enough for us. No ghosts need apply. Ok I love that

“Cheeseman's, Lamberley. Where is Lamberley, Watson?” “It is in Sussex, south of Horsham.” Holmes sometimes really treats Watson as a walking atlas or newspaper. I don't think that Watson minds

It was one of the peculiarities of his proud, self-contained nature that though he docketed any fresh information very quietly and accurately in his brain, he seldom made any acknowledgment to the giver. Ok, maybe he does mind

indeed the matter is so extraordinarily delicate that it is most difficult to discuss Really delicate this time, or delicate like a student trying to cheat again?

The lady was very beautiful, but *steels for racism and misogyny*

Twice the wife was caught in the act of assaulting this poor lad in the most unprovoked way. Once she struck him with a stick and left a great weal on his arm. This was a small matter, however, compared with her conduct to her own child, a dear boy just under one year of age. On one occasion about a month ago this child had been left by its nurse for a few minutes. A loud cry from the baby, as of pain, called the nurse back. As she ran into the room she saw her employer, the lady, leaning over the baby and apparently biting his neck. There was a small wound in the neck from which a stream of blood had escaped. A violent and biting wife. So, some real vampire-like behaviour then. Not what I expected

To him it seemed as wild a tale as it may now seem to you. He knew his wife to be a loving wife, and, save for the assaults upon her stepson, a loving mother. Why, then, should she wound her own dear little baby? He told the nurse that she was dreaming, that her suspicions were those of a lunatic, and that such libels upon her mistress were not to be tolerated. Believe her, idiot!

So what are Holmes and Watson going to do this time? Interrogate this vampire lady? Deduce and remove the perfectionally rational and existing thing that suddenly makes her want to drink her baby's blood? I really can't see where this story is heading

P. S. I believe your friend Watson played Rugby for Blackheath when I was three-quarter for Richmond. It is the only personal introduction which I can give. “Of course I remembered him,” said I as I laid down the letter. “Big Bob Ferguson, the finest three-quarter Richmond ever had. Fanfic writers really ran away with this, avidly pointing to Ferguson as Watson's first crush on another man. I can't really blame them

Holmes looked at me thoughtfully and shook his head. “I never get your limits, Watson,” said he. “There are unexplored possibilities about you. I love this. So easy to picture Holmes looking at Watson like he is a beautiful, ever interesting puzzle

I had remembered him as a long, slab-sided man with loose limbs and a fine turn of speed which had carried him round many an opposing back. There is surely nothing in life more painful than to meet the wreck of a fine athlete whom one has known in his prime. His great frame had fallen in, his flaxen hair was scanty, and his shoulders were bowed. I fear that I roused corresponding emotions in him. “Hullo, Watson,” said he, and his voice was still deep and hearty. “You don't look quite the man you did when I threw you over the ropes into the crowd at the Old Deer Park. Oh my. There was really some History between those two

“I gather that you did not know your wife well at the time of your marriage?” “I had only known her a few weeks.” Still wild to me, that it was common to marry someone you barely knew at that time

“I fancy,” said he, “that I may be of more use at Lamberley than here. It is eminently a case for personal investigation. If the lady remains in her room, our presence could not annoy or inconvenience her. Of course, we would stay at the inn.” They are going on a country trip, staying at an inn, again :)

“Did she give no explanation why she struck him?” “None save that she hated him. Again and again she said so.” “Well, that is not unknown among stepmothers. A posthumous jealousy, we will say. Is the lady jealous by nature?” “Yes, she is very jealous—jealous with all the strength of her fiery tropical love.” Evil stepmother trope, but racist as well *groans*

Still can't figure out where this story is going and what Holmes is planning to do

“For God's sake, what do you think, Mr. Holmes? It may be a mere intellectual puzzle to you, but it is life and death to me! My wife a would-be murderer—my child in constant danger! Don't play with me, Mr. Holmes. It is too terribly serious.” Good that Ferguson says those words aloud. Holmes, are you listening?

Again she turned on me those glorious eyes. “He loves me. Yes. But do I not love him? Do I not love him even to sacrifice myself rather than break his dear heart? That is how I love him. And yet he could think of me—he could speak of me so.” “He is full of grief, but he cannot understand.” “No, he cannot understand. But he should trust.” Don't tell me her intentions were good, and those two children were the ones who were... possessed, somehow? And that she tried to help them? I'm lost

“Fancy anyone having the heart to hurt him,” he muttered as he glanced down at the small, angry red pucker upon the cherub throat. It was at this moment that I chanced to glance at Holmes and saw a most singular intentness in his expression. His face was as set as if it had been carved out of old ivory, and his eyes, which had glanced for a moment at father and child, were now fixed with eager curiosity upon something at the other side of the room. Following his gaze I could only guess that he was looking out through the window at the melancholy, dripping garden. *inspiration is striking* I have a theory! Do wasps live in the garden? Was the baby stung by a wasp, and did the lady try to suck the poison out, and maybe beat them away with those sticks as well? Though that does not explain the partly paralized dog

Your wife is a very good, a very loving, and a very ill-used woman.” Ferguson sat up with a cry of joy. “Prove that, Mr. Holmes, and I am your debtor forever.” “I will do so, but in doing so I must wound you deeply in another direction.” Hm. My suspicions are now on the older son. And no wasps. Something stronger, intentionally given

Ferguson clearly saying he's not interested in hearing Holmes' reasoning, only his conclusions, yet Holmes simply can't resist

“Did it not occur to you that a bleeding wound may be sucked for some other purpose than to draw the blood from it? Was there not a queen in English history who sucked such a wound to draw poison from it?” Good, I was at least somewhat right. Still curious about what and who

A South American household. My instinct felt the presence of those weapons upon the wall before my eyes ever saw them. It might have been other poison, but that was what occurred to me. When I saw that little empty quiver beside the small bird-bow, it was just what I expected to see. Not fair. The readers couldn't see what Holmes could see, you literally can't know this

“Now do you understand? Your wife feared such an attack. She saw it made and saved the child's life, and yet she shrank from telling you all the truth, for she knew how you loved the boy and feared lest it break your heart.” “Jacky!” I knew it. Quite terrible, though, to write his disability as a motivation for this attacks

I liked the start of this story. The rest seemed a bit rushed, the elder brother as the villain in this story could use a bit more foreshadowing. I also really missed desciptions of Holmes and Watson sleeping in the same inn room and going on countryside walks together

I feel as far as Reginalds manipulation with Five I think that with Five he was the only one to get a mixture of approval, praise, and abuse all together. To make him seek approval, to be useful for his father, to be seen, and to always seek to do better.

That's why Reginald placed Five in the middle as well, to force him to have the mentality to seek approval, to always want to do better, and rise through the ranks, but Reginald kept doing a manipulative tactic what is called "moving the goal post" I am sure. In other words, Reginald was making Five chase an unreachable goal without him knowing. I believe he forced Five to strive for being perfect and having issues with perfectionism...

I believe Reginald had to keep sprinkling praise here and there so Five's ego would stay fullfed so he'd always keep trying to seek approval from his abusive father... In other words, he'd switch back and forth between giving praise but then making Five feel inferior and wanting to do better to achieve getting back to getting praise... The old abusive tactic of manipulation: The switching between hot and cold and the switching between idolization and devaluation... Trauma bonding at its finest...

In other words... Reginald saw Five as the most useful and the one with the most potential and benefits to him and that made him see Five as a favorite for that, but also his favorite to fuck with...

Reginald abused all of them terribly, but I can see he has Five all fucked up and the most confused given the rest of them are only filled with resentment and hatred towards their father at all times while Five feels the same but folds sometimes when he's around Reginald when they're alone together... Which is why I believe that when Five feels Reginald is speaking to him civilly and genuinely Five always becomes and looks so soft and vulnerable around his father with teary eyes...

Kind of similar to Klaus when he thought this "different Reginald" was nicer and safer and softened up to him quickly hoping things would be different this time around...

And also, Five is nothing like his father, he's actually quite emotionally and mentally the opposite, but I've noticed they both have a lot of the same ticks and traits and I'm wondering if Five picked them up from Reginald to be like him to be seen better...

How Five walks, how he stands, how he dresses, how he keeps his hair all neat and in place, how he carries himself with an air of swag, poise, perfection, and power, and how he keeps his hands in his pockets when standing, striding, or walking...

They are very much the same in some ways...

But the huge differences between them are that Five is made of love, care, and selflessness... While Reginald is made of manipulation, abuse, selfishness, control, and personal gain...

Kanato and Malorie's relationship analyze

TW (very little mentions of obsessive and kinda toxic relationships, childhood trauma)

(just gonna say this, these two dont exactly have a relationship. they are still on that boring ass "talking stage but it's obvious they are in love" kinda situation. )

-Okay i think we all know how Kanato is a sucker for attention. Like this man feeds off of it.

- and Malorie's love language is basically giving, and receiving attention

- so its actually not really a surprise that Kanato fell for her. Because she was the only one that gave him that "motherly affection" after all these years.

- and of course, he has a lot of trauma from his childhood especially from his mother.

- when he met Malorie, thats what made him basically attached to her, and kinda obsessed with her in an unhealthy way.

-so when she started to act nice around him, and treat him like a normal person, thats when his little miserable dead heart also started acting out

- this mf literally dreamed about this girl, and planned a whole wedding just because she shared her cake with him, and she is not treating him like he is insane.

- and since then, he was sure that this girl is the one.

- but whats really weird about it that, kanato acts like the literaly Wednesday addams itself when he is around her. he acts like she doesnt hold any special place in her life when infacts, she is his golden trophy.

-sometimes he just cant bear to be like that tho. His true feelings eventually shows up when Malorie makes physical contact with him like touching his hair, or holding his cheek in both of her hands in a gentle way or kissing the top of his forehead while she is hugging him with those soft arms and warm body and also saying "i love you" to him in that soft voice while looking at him like he is worthy of something- omg he could die just thinking about it wishqjhrjw💓💕💖

-on the other hand, why Malorie fell in love with him is a different story.

-Malorie is not only a people pleaser, but she is also one of those type of girls that say "i can fix them" because she feels like she has to fix everything and anything around her and its her responsibility to make everyone feel safe and secure. (childhood trauma as its finest fr)

- Kanato is obviously the perfect deal for her!! There is a lot to be fixed!!

- and not only that but she is also being a personal therapist to him

-so their "relationship" actually started off with trauma bounding first

- a human girl that with bit of perfectionism that has a trauma on fixing everyone and everything, and a immortal sociopath that has a lot of trauma that needs to be fixed😍

-they really started to cherish each others company after all these chaos tho (not completely but still trying😬)
