Also wanted to add something a month later

I honestly enjoy the Fledgeling as a character, truly. They have very limited background options, and even less of a personality – mostly because they have yours – but what little they have is a lot of fun to watch. They seem to be pretty chill, having a sense of humor (pretty sick, mostly), sometimes even empathy, depending on their humanity level, but, eh, sometimes the game is kind of forcing you to be edgy or react super chill and cool in the situations, where most freshly Embraced people would be screaming and shitting their pants.

It honestly always baffled me why VTMB just INSISTS the player to be an edgelord, sometimes to the point of cringe (even with taking in account having a Beast inside you), but even when you're playing a high-humanity vampire you're almost forced to be unnecessary rude to people like Gary or Imalia right away, even if you don't want to, and then I realized something.

We're playing as a young person in their twenties in 2004. It's a millennial.

Being like. Post-suicidal is so strange. Like hiiiii everybody im new I spent a good chunk of my life languishing and have like 3 or 4 lived experiences. But now I'm ready to fuck and party or whatever. Can we be friends. Im so happy to be here. Can we be friends

After spending what feels like a lifetime in my VtM echo chamber, looking at the other vampire media almost feels like blasphemy. You feel lost and confused like a mole crawling out into the sun (pun intended) for the first time. What do you mean, the concept of the Masquerade isn't even present most of the time? What do you mean, you don't have to wait patiently for about 20-30 years and then ask your local authorities permission to Embrace somebody?? Wait, there are no limits to siring??! And the sun might not even kill you??!?!

I'm so sorry y'all I'm not even a part of the fandom idk if it's even accurate 😭

Maybe it's a weird take but Shadow Milk Cookie and Elder Faerie Cookie OBVIOUSLY look like a divorced couple because they interacted like one

I really don't know what happened between them, but for someone as wise and reserved as Elder Faerie to repeat in almost every line something like «no, don't listen to him» or «no, shut your mouth, no, no, stop talking» seemed really strange to me and then I realized this lmao.

Obsessed with vampires but specifically when they're really pathetic

This is literally canon

aight so Crk updated and I'm already getting some uh Gay Divorce™️ vibes from Shadow Milk and Elder Faerie

I can smell the divorce papers (wait this joke actually works on another level because of the whole paper storm thing-)

(Uh idk if this is a ship already if not and if there's a tag or not someone tell me if there is I literally just started playing this part and I don't wanna go get spoiled-)

After rewatching the Darren Shan (Vampire's Assistant, 2009) movie, because what a fever dream it was, I can only say that – from an outsider's perspective, that is, I'm absolutely unfamiliar with the lore and the books – the ritual of Vampaneze blooding looks awfully like the Sabbat Vaulderie 🫢
