comment
If They Were Monsters is a Victorian horror crossover AU by TheEvilNae (The Fantasy Book Club) and Sari Spooks (SPOOK). It is a yearly collaboration for the month of October; during that month every year. It is told in a dual-POV and switches writers/artists every chapter, with TheEvilNae doing Fiona's chapters and Sari Spooks doing Charlie's.After Charlie Shelly storms outside during some heavy snowfall, she meets a vampire laying in an embankment and she invites him to her house to warm up. Leaving hurriedly, he declares that the Shelleys are now under his protection. Eight years later, Charlie is met by her suitor with a marriage proposal, which she accepts. Upon hearing that a local vampire may be hunting people by the bridge, Charlie rushes over, remembering what had happened.Fiona (Charlie's older sister) has a fearsome reputation amongst the local men as uncontrollable, uncouth, and aggressive. As their werewolf clan has a ritual every full moon where the men have a choice of the unmarried women, Fiona must find a way to survive, with her options being "submit or die".

comment
Sophisticated as Hell: Fiona has a penchant for mixing formal language with profanity. Justified, as Fiona is minor nobility during the Victorian era, so she might be trying to reconcile the flowery speech patterns she was taught with what she actually wants to sound like.

Monochrome to Color: This is mostly in black-and-white, until the end where it's revealed that Fiona became Matriarch, with a full-colour panel of Fiona with a ripped dress, broken shackles, and covered in blood.

Take a Third Option: Fiona gets the "choice" to either marry a man she has no interest in or be ripped to shreds. She instead chooses to become matriarch.

Dogged Nice Guy: Implied. Fiona has plenty of suitors, who keep pursuing her even though they know she isn't remotely interested.

Sadistic Choice
 If They Were Monsters (Webcomic) / int_babc974
comment
Sadistic Choice: The debutantes must chose between being forced into a marriage that they don't want or being ripped apart and eaten by a werewolf. It's not like they can skip the event; families need to send daughters to keep the werewolf clan's favour. The sadistic choice is also implied with the families of the girls: should they keep their daughters and lose their standing or send them and have the possibility of them brutally murdered?
