regshoe: A. J. Raffles, leaning back with a straw hat tilted over his face (Raffles)
[personal profile] regshoe
This is a bit of a weird one... it's an idea I've had floating around for ages, and I think the shape it's ended up taking is a bit different to what it might have been if I'd written it when I first planned it out. But in any case, here it is: Raffles as a dramatic London vampire!

Summary:

Bunny Manders meets his old friend A. J. Raffles again after many years. But Raffles has a dark secret—no, another one...



The title is from my favourite passage from Carmilla: 'You will think me cruel, very selfish, but love is always selfish; the more ardent the more selfish. How jealous I am you cannot know. You must come with me, loving me, to death; or else hate me and still come with me, and hating me through death and after.'

This sounds extremely relevant to my interests! I have bookmarked it to read soon. Carmilla is one of my favourite characters of all time. I love her, love her, love her! I signed up for the Multi-Fandom Postcards Exchange, and some kind fan sent me a postcard with an illustration.
