Aging Serial Killer Can Think of 0 Ways His “You Have to Stay with Me, I Got Us a Daughter” Pitch to His Boyfriend Could Go Wrong
Interview with the Vampire
This production still will never not be hilarious bc it looks like they are having so much fun, meanwhile Lestat has a huge gaping BLOODLESS GASH IN HIS THROAT
Am I the only one who saw Lestat, Louis, and Claudia in that “One Unfulfilled Idea of Family” in Hannibal, Will, and Abigail? Or am I just one of those helpless cases of VCians who can easily find reference to VC just anywhere and everywhere? 0_o
It’s definitely not just you. I know I’ve talked to adirotynd and wicked-felina about this very phenomenon. There’s a hell of a lot of common ground between the VC and Hannibal: perverse yet more-intense-than-anything-ever intimacy based on mutual experience of (committing) violence; heightened sensuality; a fine line between black comedy and high-flown philosophy… and then of course Hannibal is in itself a fanfic-like remix of the Thomas Harris canon, which is interesting to look at, considering the fanon that has grown up around the VC over the years.
I was surprised-yet-not-surprised when I found out that Bryan Fuller was a huge IWTV fan growing up – there’s a Nerdist podcast in which he describes how, at the age of 13, he phoned Anne Rice because he wanted to work on the IWTV screenplay. The story is a gem and starts about 32 minutes in, but the whole thing is really great:

Edit: basically what I’m saying is, if you’re a VC fan who can handle looking at gore, there is a very good chance that Hannibal will be right up your street. Meanwhile, if you are a Hannibal fan who enjoys historical settings and can cope with a canon that gets increasingly bizarre as the series progresses, you might find a happy home in VC fandom. Hey, I like to matchmake.
Today I learned that Lou is another way ppl call the weed….I don’t know how I feel about it….

//I don’t want to be rude or whatever, but fictionkin is not a real thing. You cannot be the soul of a fictional character. An author worked hard to come up with and create these characters–they sprang from their head and their hard work. It’s disrespectful to claim otherwise.
I really don’t want to see this become a “thing” in this fandom, because we don’t need people claiming and being allowed to claim they are “The Real Lestat” etc. etc.
This is a thing? I don’t mean to be rude either, just saying, for one’s own sanity, these are fictional characters ‘mkay?
“devilsfool is one of my favorite rpers on tumblr, sassy, sinister and exceedingly irresistible love the posts and I especially love the interactions with merciful-death.
devilsfool.tumblr.com
merciful-death.tumblr.com”
ooc; devilsfool was amazing. I’ve RPed with many people throughout the three years I’ve been roleplaying Louis on Tumblr, and I can honestly say that devilsfool was one of the most effortless people to RP with. We “clicked” very well in our writing. We shared many of the same headcanons and I always looked forward to seeing them on the dash, or getting asks from them. They’re such a sweetie OOC as well. I’m still very, very sad that they’re not on Tumblr anymore.
Thank you to the person who submitted this for your kind words. ❤ I’m glad you enjoyed our RPs.

replied to your photoset “They can smell it, it smells like spilled blood to them, as usual……”
Oh man just about the time I manage to block it out of my memory, it’s on my dash. THANKS.
