We have some water cooler talk about the writers strike and why it’s important for LGBT fans to support.

‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy:
Thou art thyself, though not a Vampire.
What’s Vampire? It is not fang nor blood
…nor any other part

By any other name would smell as sweet

Ismail gets thrust into their hell week, having conflict with almost everybody - Ismail bails on Kieu My during the waffle fundraiser, throws Zoe's relationship with Finn into the spotlight, leaves Sascha hanging and places the blame on Lou and Constantin (who, Isi should rightfully be mad at after that kiss). With all of this conflict, I'm hoping that we'll begin to see greater introspection, growth, and responsibility for Ismail.

Druck 703: Who is Ismail?
Honestly, does Ismail even know who they are? We're three weeks into Druck season 7 and still feeling really lost as to who Ismail is as a person, their desires, motivations, etc. Is this intentional? Because Ismail doesn't know who they are themselves or is the change in the writer's room playing out disastrously this season? One thing stays the same, though and it's that Kieutou, cutest couple ever, keep feeding us in their IG stories
