Hey all, this is my First Post here.
Thoughts on EC TF's
The first thing
that I remember that got me into this theme was the 'dark Lilly' part of Legend.
I always wished there'd been more of a process, and more time for her to react to it at the end.
I generally envision a scene where a good girl is transformed (made to transform) into something that embodies all that she'd ever been taught was "bad". She fights the whole way.
She 'sees' the 'darker nature' filling her body and mind, almost like an invading force.
In the end, once it's taken over, there is still a portion of her mind that is the 'good girl', and this portion is left to watch helplessly as she commits horrible acts on her friends etc...
I especially picture a later scene where she has caught two girls whom she knows and makes one watch while the other is transformed, before going through it herself.
Elegant vs. Skimpy:
I still picture the end product looking something like dark Lilly; Gothic but elegant.
Black lips, longer black nails (not
really long though), maybe subtle fangs (as in the Anne Rice movies
). Dress would start off conservative, blouse etc., that would probably be partly torn off during the process. The end result would put on something like a black evening dress, or something simpler but similar.
The process itself:
Not sure what causes it. Probably an amorphous 'demon' that becomes attracted to her, perhaps for all the things she's denied herself. I've pictured her having nightmares; She's feeling terrified wandering down a dark hallway in her house/apt. then being drawn to a mirror, perhaps in the bathroom, and when she turns on the light, she startles awake and terrified or crying.
This goes on for a month, then one night (full/new moon?
) something hits her, and minutes later she falls to her knees, heart racing, etc.. Heavy feelings of deja-vu relating to her dreams hit her, like she's fallen into another nightmare.
Startled to find her nails are longer (long nails to her = evil/slutty). Yeah, a little 'catwoman from channel six' here.
Visions of what she'll soon be doing rush her mind...
At some point later in the process, she manages to get herself to a mirror, and sees her darker visage, and sobs at how her body and mind are betraying her...
You can get the rest.
Just some ideas from one angle on the issue.
