Fangfest 2024 - Day Twenty - The Sun
It's almost funny when arguably one of the worst days of your life is the best thing that ever happened to you.
Ralph never considered himself lucky - just another awkward military brat who grew up trying to join the army counter intelligence program who then proceeded to lose his leg on his first deployment who then became an Instagram thot to avoid the horrors of fighting for his benefits as a disabled veteran. It was only after he was spite-Embraced by an incel Nosferatu and came out a waterblood that things started looking up. Now he didn't have to engage often with people who didn't understand his weird way of thinking, met the bestest friends he's ever had, was offered community (even if he rejected it in the end) from the fullblood Nosferatu, and of course met his beloved Khloworm.
The Sun card in tarot represents enlightment, joy, success and material happiness, even marriage. Ralph faces his life head-on because he has a purpose that motivates him, and also because he is surrounded by the immutable love of his entire coterie.
(Not canon YET but they are definitely going to drink the Formulae that gives you the ability to tattoo. Every member of Stakebait gets the staked heart tattoo, and Ralph of course wants ink of his lover covering up the mottled mess of his former tatts his Embrace messed up! Still a little messed up unfortunately, damn low-tier Nos Curse. Fear not viewer, Khloe designed and drew it herself.)
