Summary
Wendy leaves the city trying to escape from her demons and in search for her next big story. While spending countless hours, nose deep in old magazine cut-outs, she found a small article about a town, in the far North, where people began to disappear, only to come back in a few days, dazzled, pale and hungry. No other injury than a bruise on the neck--for every single person. The article questions whether it’s a serial killer or a cult--and Wendy wonders if it’s simple like that.

他们狂笑着，笑得是那样可怕，阴沉。——《鬼宫》

BTVS - Critiquing the Gothic Romance Trope by shadowkat67
Fandoms: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)
20 Jan 2020
Tags
Summary
Been rewatching Buffy the Vampire Slayer, S1-S3 at the moment, and have just completed the first five episodes of Season 3. What I've become struck by this go around, which I didn't really notice before, no idea why - is the deft critique of romantic love and in particular the gothic romance trope, with all of its horrific consequences. Joss Whedon and his writing team are deft satirists of the horror and in particular gothic horror/gothic romance tradition. Not surprising, considering the name of the series is Buffy the Vampire Slayer - that alone, just screams satire.

Summary
“You better behave tonight,” Jiang Cheng spoke up, poking a hole into Wei Wuxian’s thoughts. “Just because we’ll be in disguise does not mean your actions won’t have consequences. If I hear of any mischief, I will know exactly who to blame.”
Wei Wuxian laughed again. “Well, that’s not fair,” he replied, “Is that not the whole purpose of a masquerade? To let ourselves be unrestrained, just for one night, with no strings attached?”
(In which the Jin family hosts a masquerade.)
