Hey, I saw your
post with the book cover, you wanted the star to get as a tattoo. I think it is
an ordinary pentacle, as far as I know ( I am wiccan/pagan), the circle inside
has no other meaning than the circle outside (it is usually around the star).
Yes, I think it
is significant that the symbol is on its head, later, around in the 19th
century, church claimed it as a symbol for satan or the evil in common. Because
you could see a goat in it. (Church of Satan still uses it today though)
(However the christian church is wrong, it had been a symbol for
protection against evil (you can clearly see in Goethes “Faust”).)
So I think the editor of the cover just used it as a representative symbol for satan/evil, which is very suitable for the VC novels. It has already been used often, I don’t think the editor made it especially for IWTV.
I hope I could help you 🙂
Thank u, that is a big help! It really does look similar to the one on the book cover. It has the hexagon inside, too. Wow. Thank u!
Not that AR necessarily had any input in the cover design for that edition of the book, but I think she does mention Faust at some point in the series (more than once, maybe…) so she might have suggested it if asked for her opinion.
Headcanon: What you think happened, based on the characters, settings, storylines and all reasonable extrapolations thereof.
Heartcanon: What you feel ought to have happened, quite divorced from rationality or sense.
Soulcanon: What you know happened, deep down in your soul, regardless of what anyone says. Including the creators of canon, themselves.
Crotchcanon: What your gonads wish had happened, or, alternatively, what turns you on.
Oh my goodness.
They forgot fanon which seems to be confused these days with canon…
So, what is “fanon” then?
//Fanon is stuff not in canon but that’s so prevalent in fandom that people have largely forgotten it’s not in the source material, ie, Daniel Molloy wearing glasses (which is Movieverse Canon, but literally never happens in the books). It’s headcanons that are extremely common or permeate the fandom so deeply it’s hard to separate them from canon, even if they never actually appear in the main material. (I think.. maybe someone else can explain it better.)
“The book never said it /didn’t/ happen” i say as I rub my little fangirl hands together.
Well your thing was hilarious, I was just glad to have found it! More plz *u*
I always love to hear that my blog inspired a fanwork; that is it’s PRIMARY PURPOSE HAVE I MENTIONED THAT ENOUGH?
Awww thank you, that mashup is probably one of my fave original things I’ve made, too. I have another BB/IWTV mashup just about ready for release… but I’m worried it’s too long, will anyone watch over 1 minute of BB/IWTV mashup? Should I try to trim it?
CAN Y’ALL HANDLE 1 MIN AND 13 SECS OF BB/IWTV MASHUP? THAT IS THE QUESTION.
