ooc; remember that time louis was under a love spell and ranted for like an entire page and a half about how he breathed merrick and had never experienced any love prior to her boobs and how he’d ruin the vampire-talamasca relationship just to stare at her boobs basically and then got really pissed off when david told him he was under a spell bECAUSE YOU’RE JUST JEALOUS YOU HAVEN’T FELT TRUE LUV LIKE THIS DAVID
Natalia Pierandrei is a fantasy art and comic book illustrator from Rome, Italy. Influenced by fairy tales, graphic novels, she created anime-styled whimsical illustrations with a penchant for gothic imagery and classical fantasy themes.
Natalia works with the mixed techniques include mainly markers, pencils and watercolours.
This artist is also known for her Vampire Chronicles fan art in some circles. ^^
It is indeed pictures of her cat, Sugarplum. hahaha…
And other things, too. It’s kind of interesting tho, bc you get to see where she travels, and visit inside her house this way… she’s always made Lestat (and other characters) quite fond of sumptuous but tasteful interior design.
If L/L had a pet, I think a kitty like this one would be a good choice.
Does she do instagram? Send me the link, I didn’t find hers. She has twitter but it just feeds from/to her FB posts.
It’s weird, she has this role now at the helm of her divided fandom, both feared and adored. She has a kind of presence in social media now where she shares recs for things that interest her, and she speaks out for gay rights and other causes, which she really didn’t bother with before social media. She has these People of the Page who unconditionally adore her and everything she says/does, maybe that’s why she voices her opinion on things. She must have some idea of how fun fandom can be, bc I don’t think she needs to do it to sell books at this point!
…And then people on the other side of that, Off-Pagers (maybe there’s a better word for us) who are grateful for what she’s created, but also sort of afraid of her for the nuclear warheads of Legal Whoopass she broke out on us in the 90’s. That’s why everyone thought the VC fandom was dead; we weren’t, we were scattered and hiding our fanworks from her for a long time.
I went off on a little rant there, it’s not like I’m defending her at all, but she may see this blog someday, so I try to be diplomatic when I mention her. Fortunately for the whole VC fandom, it seems she’s less concerned about fanworks now, and even likes some fanart.
