NO NO OKAY. even if they’re not following the canon of the film...... in the original dracula novel killing a sire frees their descendants from vampirism. killing a vampire kills all of the vampires they turned...... by making them HUMAN.
idk what my point is with that tbf. other than that s4e10 was titled after a song from fiddler on the roof, a musical entirely about straying away from tradition in a world that doesn’t support it anymore, and ended with the vampires back exactly where they started in s1-- colin robinson's return to his old bastard self, nandor constantly reaching for escapism, laszlo and nadja both feeling kind of Lost --this show has consistently shined upon how vampirism is a Curse first and foremost, and it feels. idk. what’s the Point of the show ending with that problem never being properly addressed? yk?? and getting rid of vampirism as a whole feels like a cop out, yes, but. idk. i just think its a Path They Could Take yk
no you don’t get it this is revolutionary. guillermo has been tied to nandor for so long because he wanted nandor to be the one to change him. he’s been his familiar and his bodyguard and taken care of him with everything he has. but nandor refused to change him because he thinks guillermo would leave after, that that’s all guillermo has stayed for. so guillermo is now reasserting his autonomy and his desires above nandor’s insecurities, and if derek does change him and guillermo returns to the house (which he implied he’d do by saying “nothing ever changes in this house unless i change it) then that will confirm to nandor that guillermo wants to be there. even if derek doesn’t change him, this is a huge moment for guillermo because he’s recognizing that he doesn’t need nandor to get what he wants.
