All credit to that visionary of an anon who is now officially responsible for some serious squealing on my part
Werewolves thinking they are dramatically smaller than they really are, walking over people’s legs and furniture
Werewolves thinking they can fit in their vampire friends laps but being way too big and absolutely smothering them (it’s a good thing they don’t actually have to breathe)
Werewolves giving friendly head-butts!
Werewolves lounging across the back of the entire sofa!
Werewolves trying to sleep rolled up at the foot of the bed and Not Fitting
Werewolves sleeping on top of their vampire friend’s coffin and effectively trapping them inside
Werewolves doing the swatting-paw thing cats do when they play!
Extra evidence is that “Toto” is also the name of Dorothy’s dog in “Wizard of Oz.” Toto the dog – Toto’s song about a werewolf. Coincidence? I think NOT.
“are you a ‘wolf like me by tv on the radio’ werewolf, a ‘hungry like the wolf by duran duran’ werewolf, an ‘it will come back by hozier’ werewolf or a ‘hollow moon by awolnation’ werewolf?” is a questionable intrusive thought i just had, sure, but also a compelling buzzfeed quiz
This is “howl by Florence + the machine” werewolf erasure
siames “the wolf” werewolf of Exo’s “Wolf” werewolf?
Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon werewolf, thanks. Though this post is helping me expand my musical lycanthropy range.
“Furr” by Blitzen Trapper, perhaps?
Okay but “Howl by the Unlikely Cantidates” werewolves are valid too.
You’re all gonna leave out “Shewolf” by Shakira
What about the Wolf Man from “Monster Squad”? He has nards!
“There is a certain irony here, because many of the first werewolves to be outed in society from the 16th through the 18th centuries were actually women. Just as our American ancestors had their Salem Witch Trials, Europe had its Werewolf Trials, and a large number of the so-called “werewolves” tortured and burned at the stake were female. […]
In the 17th-century werewolf trials of Estonia, women were about 150 percent more likely to be accused of lycanthropy; however, they were about 100 percent less likely to be remembered for it.”
“Here’s also a pronounced lack of female werewolves in popular culture. Their near absence in literature and film is explained away by various fancies: they’re sterile, an aberration, or—most galling of all—they don’t even exist.Their omission from popular culture does one thing very effectively: It prevents us, and men especially, from being confronted by hairy, ugly, uncontrollable women. Shapeshifting women in fantasy stories tend to transform into animals that we consider feminine, such as cats or birds, which are pretty and dainty, and occasionally slick and wicked serpents. But because the werewolf represents traits that are accepted as masculine—strength, large size, violence, and hirsutism—we tend to think of the werewolf as being naturally male. The female werewolf is disturbing because she entirely breaks the rules of femininity.”
— Julia Oldham, Why Are There No Great Female Werewolves?
A werewolf film written by a woman wouldn’t be as interesting because they know how unrealistic it is to be caught by surprise by something that happens regularly every damn month.
And then there’s that werewolf who goes three full moons without transforming, then transforms one night during a waxing crescent moon.
Now I’m imagining some on the werewolf form of the pill and having to regularly keep up their schedule and one werewolf telling another that they used to have such irregular changes but the pill now makes things so much easier and the other werewolves being like oh man I should talk to my doctor about this.
All i imagined is some poor fucker that’s like “you think you have it bad. I got my first change at 9 and change sporadically every 4 months or so. For 2 weeks. Sometimes it happens randomly so i just gave up.”
Wake up pissed and agitated with a headache and slam some aspirin with no real thought to the matter because it must just be a shit day. Halfway through the day they just “…oh shit that explains so much fuck fuck fuck”
