“Yes, you’re right. Rude, a complete scoundrel, nothing there to like at all”
Why he so pretty tho?
ID: Nandor is leaning towards Guillermo, staring deeply into his eyes. Nandor is shirtless, his hair is messy and hanging about his shoulders. He has a necklace hanging around his neck with a large gem inside. Guillermo is staring longingly up into Nandor’s beautiful face. He is wearing a knitted sleeveless sweater and stripy shirt.
"You talk too much," okay? So pin me to a wall with your dagger to my throat and shut me up?
Guillermo trying on Nandor’s dressing gown. Just cause. He likes how it looks ✨
ID: there is a single image of Guillermo standing facing the viewer directly. He is wearing one of Nandor’s dressing gowns which is huge on him. Under that he has his regular at home slacks, a collared shirt and a v neck sweater vest. He is fixing his glasses and grinning - clearly ‘feeling himself’ in this plush attire.

I wrote an outline for a fic about how I think season 4 will end. Pls enjoy:
The whole fic is Guillermo agonizing over the new woman in Nandor’s life and trying to accept her and trying to accept that they’re going to be together. Then they announce that they are going to get married and Guillermo decides that he doesn’t want to be a vampire/stay at the house anymore. But when he goes to tell Nandor, Nandor is like I’m so happy and I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you and therefore as a thank you on the night I’m going to get married I’ll turn you into a vampire because afterwards I’ll have my lovely wife to do all these things for me.
Guillermo says thank you and bites his tongue and tries to be happy about it finally happening. When he looks at himself in the mirror he tries to see himself the way he saw himself when he started but being a vampire is not at all what he thought. On the night of the wedding he gets Nandor ready feeling sick to his stomach, trying to convince himself that it’s just nerves. He opens his mouth to say something to Nandor and then his bride to be sweeps in. And he sees them together and in an instant knows how his eternity will play out. Nandor will get married. He and his wife will live with Nadja and Laszlo and they will all be deliriously happy with each other and he and Collin Robinson will stand on the outside looking in. Except what will nourish Collin will empty Guillermo till there is nothing left of him.
Nandor leans in to bite him and Guillermo feels like he’s going to be sick with the desperate desire to have Nandor claim him in the way he’s been dreaming of long before he even loved him.
Almost reactively Guillermo shouts no, shoves Nandor away and storms out. Nandor is like “Guillermo!?” In his standard winey voice and follows after him leaving his bride to be “where are you going? Guillermo!!” And Guillermo is storming out of the house and Nandor shouts from the top step this time he more serious tone “Guillermo! Where are you going? The wedding is about to start” “I can’t do it! I can’t have you turn me and then go to your wedding and spend an eternal life with all of you -”
“Why?”
“BECAUSE I LOVE YOU” Guillermo snarls angry heartbroken tears breaking free
“Well that is not new many familiars have loved-” Nandor begins but Guillermo cuts him off taking one step back toward him.
“I-am-in-love…with you” Guillermo says slowly and deliberately delivering every word like his wishes it was a punch “though GOD” Nandor hisses in discomfort “knows why. You’re so selfish and arrogant and don’t care about me at all”
“That’s not true” Nandor’s voice hangs onto his pouty affect and Guillermo grimaces before turning away.
“I can’t believe I wasted 13 years of my life on you”
“Your mini Fridge-”
“Keep it!” Guillermo is already down the street.

Anyway there’s my best guess about the end of season XD I won’t be writing the thing I’m still writing the star trek fic I foolishly teased.
Camera crew catching a sneaky shot of Nandor’s room 👀👀👀
When I tell you that Nandor’s room has SO. MUCH. DETAIL. Don’t know if you knew but Nandor has decorative wainscoting on the bottom half of the walls of his room and it is opulently rendered in slabs of persian marquina. I know that because I drew it up (even though it ended up being mostly in shadow. Anyway. Here is also a close up:
ID: There is a single image; a slightly ajar door is framing a view of the inside of Nandor’s room from the corridor. Inside Nandor and Guillermo are stealing a kiss, Guillermo sitting on Nandor’s coffin and Nandor standing and leaning into him. They are both in comfortable attire; Guillermo in one of his signature sweaters, slacks and slippers, Nandor in his long gold dressing gown with an intricate gothic design. Candles and an open fire light up the room with warmth as they share a moment alone.
WIPS WIPS WIPS ✨
Guillermo: Are you ready to give in, master?
Nandor *low hungry growling*: Never.

ID: Guillermo has Nandor tied up with deep red bondage rope and in his arms. They are engaging in light cross related bdsm. Sorry the description is minimal on this one. Since I’ve cropped the pic to hide the nsfw bits it feels like describing the situation in detail would also then be nsfw.
The Nandermo tag is looking a little pessimistic, and hopefully it’s just anxiety about S4 coming so soon after S3. Not even a full year to play in the sandbox before we get jossed! (Is jossed still a thing? I know we hate him now but has a replacement term for upending speculation in that specific way entered the fandom lexicon yet?) Anyway, why borrow trouble? Across genres, fandom has a tendency to melt down into hysterics over the littlest things sometimes. Either they’re gonna do it and if they do there will be multiple obstacles what with this being a comedy, or they won’t. In which case, depending on how they go about it, it could range from mere disappointment to cowardly backpedaling. None of us can control that by doomandglooming on the internet. Thus far they’ve done a pretty good job of turning expectations on their ear and they don’t seem like the kind of production that makes decisions from a desire to defy the fandom no matter the cost, so I personally don’t see any reason for premature disgust and betrayal.
I mean, what can you do? If they screw you, you don’t have to keep watching. Media made for profit is transactional, you can withdraw your monetary support at any time. Obviously you can’t get back the time and energy you invested, but of course you did that of your own volition and were never promised anything in return.
But again, it’s too early to start melting down. I understand the desire to prepare yourself for disappointment, especially when you’re as used to it as most fandoms are. But it seems like a really unenjoyable way to interact with a media property, and it won’t change the outcome. If it goes bad, send the message with total abandonment. Unless/until that happens, no good will come of miserable pessimism. 🤷♀️
Given what I’ve heard about the production thus far it genuinely doesn’t seem like they would swerve on fans just to be like cruel or petulant. I feel like if they didn’t get Nandor and Guillermo together it would be for other reasons like they really aren’t actually good for each other for example. Like we all love the ship and it works in this world and I want to see it done but there’s also a legitimate argument for it not being super healthy.
I know that turning or not turning Guillermo into a vampire is one of the story beats that they have confirmed as the impetus for the show’s continuation. The event of Guillermo being turned into a vampire or not is also sort of intrinsically linked to his connection to Nandor too. I’m not going to say you couldn’t decide one without the other but it would be difficult to say have them get together and have Nandor still be umming and arring on turning him.
So yeah from a narrative standpoint I’m just here to say though it hurts it being dragged out or not confirmed is likely an intrinsic part of keeping this world alive.
Just to be super super clear: I want them to get together. I think it could be done. It just wouldn’t be easy/isn’t promised.
ID: It is a single image. It is a frazzled drug-blood effected Nandor panicking when he realises Guillermo is not standing next to him. It is mostly his head and messy hair and the word Guillermo being shouted in the background.
