god I just, I saw your username in conjunction with this post and I
he was special and unique because unlike other boys he hunted a wolf and while illiterate he totally wanted to read a book, and he talked a lot about clothes
I love this movie. This was the first vampire movie I ever watched. I was 8 years old. This movie literally changed my life. I spent years trying to remember the title because I had originally thought this was the Leslie Nielsen vampire movie. When I finally saw it again at 11. I read the entire series. A series that was far too mature for an 11 year old but I couldn’t put it down and my taste in literature dramatically changed. I went from being an extrovert to being an introverted book nerd. Throughout my teen years no other characters could compare to my love for Lestat. I was completely obsessed with the antagonists in books and always sided with them. So thank you Anne Rice for making a book series so powerful and moving that it changed my personality. I don’t know whether to hug you or slap the shit out of you.
^This happened to me similarly, too. Not quite the same, I was given IWTV when I was 11 and saw the movie after, sneaking over to a friend’s house bc it was rated R and I wasn’t allowed to watch it. I have the same feeling for AR, the VC had a huge enough influence. For better or worse *shrugs*
I was an ambivert. I was completely obsessed with antagonists, too. The VC encouraged me to develop all those extroverted traits I loved in Lestat, which other characters didn’t always approve of, but he dgaf! He marches to his own drum. Among so many things, he taught me that you don’t need anyone else’s validation or approval to be happy. The VC has been a huge source of strength. So much great advice. Here’s one:
“It’s an awful truth that suffering can deepen us, give a greater luster to our colors, a richer resonance to our words. That is, if it doesn’t destroy us, if it doesn’t burn away the optimism and the spirit, the capacity for visions, and the respect for simple yet indispensable things.” – Lestat, Queen of the Damned
//OOC: Yeah, so here’s actual the question I asked on Facebook AND the response, for those interested, since there’s a version going around without the question. Never actually asked about sex just the depth of the relationship, but Anne does usually throw that in during ship questions. (I still apply fanon logic since Ursula banged Vittorio in his book. Discrepancies, love it for fic and RP reasons.)
Yeah.. well, we all read PL, right? In this book EVERYONE loves EVERYONE and EVERYTHING in EVERY moment EVER mentioned! So yeah, of course that Marius loves Daniel. It does not confirm anything.
And sex. Didn’t Lestat say in QOTD that his johnson was like priapus ready for something that could never been performed anymore? Not with pleaure that is. So, well, technically, penetration is possible…but orgasm through that? Nah…
merciful-death said: ooc; Didn’t post the full question because I didn’t want to show disrespect by posting your real name on Tumblr. I apologize.
Yeah, I’d have done the same, Merciful “D”. 😉
//OOC: It was never explicitly stated in PL that Daniel reciprocated feelings for Marius, which is why I asked. With Anne’s response, now we know. Again, the point of this question was the ship, not sex, but the fandom seems incapable of enjoying the happy parts of anything without someone having a fit.
The Vampire Chronicles: If you shipped it, it was or will be canon at some point. The ship whore’s delight.
