Sarah Fox and Rory Keaner ↳ My Babysitter's a Vampire

Do you think Samantha ever had a moment of looking at her son and wondering why he seems so grown up all of a sudden?

Or maybe those aren't the right words; maybe that doesn't cover not flinching when Ross accidentally runs something over in the driveway and needs help cleaning the pavement or when Ethan seems to move on instinct- by muscle memory, even- to apply first aid when one of them nicks a finger while chopping veggies. Surely those violent video games played some part, she'd think, but... I mean, it just doesn't feel right for a boy of his age to seem so calm and collected in the wake of something awful.

Especially with the crying late at night.

Something has hurt her boy, she thinks, and what's a mom to do when her son is fighting demons she can't see?

Post inspired by revisiting Creature Feature's "Aim for the Head" after a number of years and thinking about just how violent monster hunting has the potential to be. There'd be a fair amount of desensitization in these kids, and I figure that that couldn't go unnoticed forever.

Also Evelyn knows everything obviously. That doesn't necessarily mean she's emotionally involved.

This... this is why it would've been so great to see the show continue & to grow with its audience. MBAV's characters tread that line between the light-hearted comedy of just accepting their situation, and fully experiencing the (albeit child friendly) aspects of both horror and tragedy that are innate to the genre so so carefully— to the extent that, when viewed together, you have this painfully evident motif of Loss of Innocence. It's almost certainly an unintended consequence of the show's tone, but it would have been really fun to lean into the realities that their normalisation of all this stuff would have had a bit more.

The disconnect between Ethan & his parents... Is it hard for him that there's so much he can't talk about? Is it helpful to have that connection with people who are still grounded in the reality of the of all these deaths & missing persons cases? Is there something human about remembering the tragedy?

Then, compare and contrast with Benny, whose parental figure is part of that world— the amount of times Ethan or Sarah have to step in & mention how deeply not normal some of his ideas are.

With all the emphasis put on Sarah's struggle to feel like she was still human, I so deeply wish they delved a bit further into the idea of what it means to be human... and what it means to retain humanity. At what point are they normalising something they should have been disgusted by? At what point can they no longer relate to normal people anymore? At what point do they stop caring about these things?

god forbid woman have fun

Sarah fox, with vampire powers. Benny weir, with magic on his side. And Ethan morgan, scared shitless.
