The whole vampire household has been touting how Guillermo is “just Nandor’s familiar” for over 4 seasons now. And even at the beginning of this episode, Nadja says it again! She says, “why don’t you take him to urgent care, Nandor, he’s your familiar.”

But once Nadja gets him to urgent care, and the vampire doctor says he’s going to put Guillermo down, she immediately says, with no hesitation, “You can’t do that! Because…because he’s OUR familiar!!!!”

Not just Nandor’s. OURS. And then she proceeds to fuck up that entire clinic to save Guillermo, to protect him and bring him home, even after learning about him being turned already. That’s the good found family shit right there.

What's so powerful about the new WWDITS episode, especially watching it a second time, is the moment with Guillermo on the float, beginning to enjoy himself and eventually getting very into the festivities. Because Guillermo, and we as the audience, definitely are led to believe that Sean is just using this event as a cheap way to win a minority vote. Guillermo feels he and the others are being propped up as tokens by people who don't know or care about queer people and are embarrassingly obvious in their lack of understanding. This isn't a pride parade. It's a fake. A sham. For political gain. On the float, he feels like a spectacle. Like something meant to be gawked at or laughed at. Then, he looks around and realizes that this is real. It's messy and it's cringe inducing and it's haphazardly thrown together and it's real. It's completely earnest. Sean openly admits to frequently trying to kiss Lazlo, all the vampires are openly queer. The people here aren't trying to take advantage of his identity and his community. They ARE his community. When Sean says he the vampires are heroes to him and his wife for being "the gayest thing on the block", he means it. They are so unabashedly and proudly, loudly queer in a way Guillermo has never felt safe to be. And Sean thinks that's incredible and brave and heroic. And, he suddenly realizes that he's not a token gay in a fake parade, to be gawked at. He's the center of a float , meant to be showcased. To be put on a pedestal and admired. Surrounded by other queer people all cheering for him and dancing and singing and yelling "I am proud! I am proud!" Because they are proud. Of themselves, of their lives, their love and relationships, and of him. And he feels proud. Maybe for the first time ever. Not for what he can do. Or what he could one day be. But of what and who he is right in that moment. That's what pride is all about. What an absolutely beautiful episode. Which is a WILD statement considering it also included a sentient doll trying to lose her virginity and Nandor falling from space, ass naked, in front of a crowd of people.

re: the 'what did guillermo feel when he first met nandor if his family can't even be in the room with a vampire longer than an hour also the convo with his abuela etc etc'

I think it's worth considering Guillermo's background with vampires here a bit too? Maybe I fixate on this a bit more because it reminds me so much of my own closeted queer mall goth vampire days myself, idk, but I think it's significant! Because Guillermo was drawn to vampires and the concept of being one long before Nandor stumbled aimlessly into that Panera bread 5 minutes before closing. He obviously watched Interview with the Vampire at a young age, and anyone who has seen that film will likely tell you about the not-so-subtle homoromantic/erotic themes within. But it's not just sexy stuff of course, it's also an exploration into a kind of queer domesticity- a family dynamic if you will, for however 'toxic' it is (ymmv I love Lestat dont come for me). We also know he 100% dressed up as Armand for at least one Halloween (but like, I know- it was more than just one).

As mentioned in earlier posts, I'm very much into exploring the lore of the 'vampire slayer' and giving the figurative 'him' more of a self-contained identity, maybe even biological aspect like vampires/werewolves, other monsters, and that seems to be the way the show is interpreting it as well. It's an interesting way to interpret them because at the end of the day it emphasizes just how much more they're like the monsters they try to kill than humanity, which can be an interesting element to play with esp in a story where a vampire slayer and vampire have managed to fall in love despite everything.

And it that vein, vampires and vampire-slayers are indisputably linked, which is also a really fun and interesting thing to play with. It would make sense for vampires to be able to smell 'the death' on them, and it would make sense for vampire-slayers to be able to inherently sense vampires nearby and fly into a primal rage. But given this link between them and the ways they're drawn to each other as a product of who they are, I think it can't be impossible that sometimes this 'drawing' to one another manifests as something else entirely. Maybe only once a few centuries or something, but still.

So maybe there's more to explore here about what vampire-slayers are and what their direct link to vampires is, exactly. Maybe it's not ALWAYS kill-on-sight. Maybe it doesn't ALWAYS manifest as primal rage. Maybe this inherent link between the two sometimes becomes something no less primal and powerful, but something much closer to a mutual desire for each other. It would explain the Guide's past dalliances with Van Helsing, wouldn't it? WOULDN'T IT??

Idk just some fun things that could be canon things maybe.
