      THE ACCURACY!! I feel like Sam and David would also just rave to each other over how much they both love their S.O. But also like Angel and Darlin would rave to each other too, and maybe include Babe. Group chat time? Or is this just my weird brain? 😅

    Okay, now that I've listened to this enough times to _not_ have my brain totally melt from sweetness while listening...
    Wasn't expecting Vampire Mate so early in December, and DEFINITELY wasn't expecting the dang confession already! (Also wasn't expecting this to take place the morning after last episode, seeing as last episode was uploaded in freaking _September..._ having Echotober right then threw a bit of a wrench in the timeline. Not that I mind, though; here I was thinking "did he just stay the entire night or something, or...?" and whaddaya know, he did.)
    5:46 I don't know why but this part always makes me smile. I think it's that sense of "slightly embarrassed to say it out loud, but also too comfortable to really care" in his voice.
    10:53 Dad mode engaged xD And of course, the ensuing banter when they check the pantry and fridge.
    13:26 Was... Was that an "old man" joke from Darlin'? After all the comments we've made about Sam being Vampire Dad and having a damn flip phone and whatnot? Pffffft xD
    15:38 "... Darlin'?"
    (pause)
    "... I don't..."
    (pause)
    "... (under his breath) Shit."
    The entire confession bit is sweet beyond words, but this little moment of "I WAS NOT PREPARED TO DO THIS" from Sam is, like, the most hilariously relatable thing and _nobody_ seems to be mentioning it.
    17:27 "I suppose you don't need your head on my chest to know my heart's racing right about now..."
    *Me:* ... You sure that's not _my_ heart, Doc?
    (Vampire Mate was what finally got me to check out this channel, and Sam has been my favorite boi basically the entire time, so... this video definitely got the butterflies going >//////

    💕💕💕 Sam really is quite the charmer, Isn't he? 😍 I think he's wonderful, so polite and thoughtful. I sense another new favorite character settling into my heart. And my list of favorites is getting quite lengthy at this point, haha. But that's a great thing, no doubt about it! The relaxing and romantic energy of this audio is fabulous. Plus, the earnest, open communication... It doesn't get better than that! It has been such a joy to watch Sam gradually grow closer to the listener, in both friendship and amorous connection. It'll be lovely to hear things progress, as their bond continues on, with each step forward. My goodness, I'm just overcome by warm and fuzzy feelings at the moment! As always, amazing audio!!! 🥰

  • @Cloudizc
    @Cloudizc Před 2 lety +40

    Commenting on here again because I just can't stop thinking about his confession.
    Confessions normally make me feel extremely anxious, there's something about someone just going from 0 to 100 intensity and saying "I love you" out of nowhere that makes me terrified.
    But Sam... He was just so not overly intense and emotional, but still managed to sound so honest and loving. He does not put the listener in a position where they *need * to reciprocate his feelings, and I just love how he doesn't explicitly says that he loves Darling yet.
    This is the first time I've ever felt so safe during a confession (he even made my eyes watery ahhhg), and it's coming from a fictional character HAHA.
    ALSO, the little sounds and deep breaths as we cuddle with him?!?!?! I- It just makes me so incredibly happy to hear him being so relaxed for once 👏😭🖤

    • @Sunny.SideUp
      @Sunny.SideUp Před 2 lety

      Same! I was out here thinking the perfect confession that I could actually deal with in real life did not exist, but damn. This was so amazing and comfortable and sincere.
      Confessions usually make me feel trapped and like the other person's feelings are suddenly my responsibility. The way he says it, you can just tell that he really is holding himself accountable and caring enough to take Darling's comfort into consideration.
