[QUOTE="Macv12, post: 6794674, member: 6801600"] If Francis shows up at prom, it will be in a tux, or crashing through the windows fighting/becoming some monstrosity. And Juno can bench press us. Any interaction we have with romance tropes I expect to be most charitably described as "deconstructive." Besides, Francis is just a sweet trans-human from transexual Transylvania, and has no intention of betraying her heritage by doing anything that can be called "normative." Russia and Romania are both Eastern Orthodox countries, by a wide margin. (It's similar to Catholicism, to the untrained eye. Disclaimer: I'm not Russian, Romanian, Eastern Orthodox, or Catholic, but I'll do my best.) They seem to share some folklore, like "evil eye" curses and a link between werewolves and blood-drinking. Since her source is a rural Romanian housewife, Francis will know a [I]lot[/I] of stories and folksy Monster Squad-type methods of protecting herself (how do you think her parents got her caged up before she hurt someone, the [I]first time[/I]?), though their accuracy is questionable. I wonder if Tasha's great-grandmother actually knows what she's talking about, if she has a more direct occult connection. Looking forward to your notes; some extra context is always nice. [/QUOTE]
