Dear Whedon Vampires

[samsom]

Thank you so much for not crying blood tears.

Just.

Thank you.

If I have to watch Bill/Eric/Pam/Jessica (Oh that girl!) cry blood tears for much longer, I'm just gonna barf a little in my mouth.

How did anyone think that would translate well to the screen, I don't even know.

Like I get the blood tears thing but at the same time I don't get it. You want to say that vampires don't have bodily fluids, then you have to go the full way. Constantly bloody eyes when they blink, bloody mouths when they speak, etc. I would like to see THOSE vampires if you are going to do the ~blood tears~.

*blink*

Just when I thought it couldn't get any more ick.

Let's just be thankful they didn't go the full monty. Although, have you noticed they also sweat blood?

I tell ya, say what you want about Spike and Angel, they're still miles more attractive than Blood Eyes.

Amennn.

Now that is one of the vampire tropes that I just don't get. Honestly really. I'm sure it's all down to me being too pedantic, but this interchanging of glands and blood vessels puzzles me.

So not pedantic. It might work in books, with lovely descriptions and all, but actually seeing doesn't evoke anything more than distaste.

I KNOW! I hate those damned blood tears!!!

They're so distracting!
