so carmilla was assassinated during a ball and she woke up “not feeling the same ever since@ but laura thinks she ALMOST died but not like actual dead dead.
maybe that’s why she inspects her room before she sleeps

“You will think me cruel, very selfish, but love is always selfish; the more ardent the more selfish. How jealous I am you cannot know. You must come with me, loving me, to death; or else hate me and still come with me, and hating me through death and after. There is no such word as indifference in my apathetic nature."

will carmilla turn laura into a vampire even if she doesn’t want it??

"I have been in love with no one, and never shall," she whispered, "unless it should be with you"
..

"Darling, darling," she murmured, "I live in you; and you would die for me, I love you so.”
..

that sounds like a threat😭

so laura is kind of awestruck by carmilla. carmilla’s mysterious. she is clearly hiding a lot and while laura’s super curious and pushes for more info here and there, carmilla remains unfazed.
another plot point which i think is going to be much more relevant is people dying in the towns especially girls.

im gonna be so real rn.
i didnt understand the prologue
the prose is requiring me to use 100% of my brain power.

so far, i know we are following laura who lives a lonely life in a castle with her father and two governesses. when she was six she had this weird experience with a strange woman where she felt as if someone pierced both her nipples.

and they received a letter from a general saying smth abt a monster
