John is actually the character everyone pretends Snape is.

I'm sorry, I had to say a Harry Potter thing, and I don't remember a lot about Harry Potter.

    I'm not really a fan of when they turn tales of predators into fun little best-friend-y things, and this in general does not look like my bag. The "What if tihs monsternwas fun instead of scary" thing is a subversion that requires a familiarity with the subject to be enjoyed fully, that I simply do not have. I might look into Carmilla though, the summary sounds pretty cool. Even if I feel like the first two lines of the wikipedia entry spoiled it.

      I just looked and yeah, rip i guess. It's still worth if you're into vampires, as a lot of tropes were born out of it, like the lesbian vampire, and the "mechanics" of vampires hadn't been set in stone yet. It's pretty short and in the public domain too. Sucks about the spoilers though, if anyones lurking, don't read the top of the wikipedia article.
