what about like. a vampire who is just this weird immortal relative. like maybe at one point they were a parent, and were turned into a vampire, and in stead of like abandoning their family out of guilt or fear, they stuck around through generations and generations in their family and its been hundreds of years and they still stick around and have this huge extended family of people who love them, that weird distant relative who like nobody is sure how they’re related but they are
like a child in their family is born and the mom is like, this is your weird relative who is nocturnal, and the vampire gets to hold the baby and is in all the family photos and everyone is like ‘yeah this is fine, my grandpa knew them so’
This just makes me think of the sims.
This is the perfect position for the maiden aunt who grows her own food and is vaguely into witchcraft that we all have
Like imagine a kid being raised with an “Aunt Mel” and just assuming she’s their mother’s sister but when they’re a teenager their mum is like “oh no she’s actually my aunt, she’s your grandad’s sister” and eventually the kid asks their grandad and he’s like “I’m pretty sure she’s my aunt. Or my great-aunt? She might be some kind of family friend, anyway.”
“Pa she looks 30 years old”
“She always has, we just kind of go with it”
Can’t help but think of you for this sort of thing, @internutter…
It would fit right in with my current #myths illogical tag… [And you can prompt me at any time]
I’m getting so many “mythical creatures in the real world” prompts that there’s almost a book in there.
I have needed something to replace Big F*ckin’ Spiders, Mate on my queue. You know, since someone already did that movie. I’ll let it percolate.
I already have a half-written novel in my back-burners about a magical Centaur lady who’s exiled into the real world. Maybe I could turn it into a series…
