After seeing your lovely drawing of lestat and louis I just had to watch the film and well it was amazing and I’m reading the books now, so thank you for helping me discover something awesome!
This is best!!! I’m so glad you liked it! The whole book series is straight up fabulous, and Anne Rice who writes them is such a sassy lady! Yikes I’m just so excited because I literally haven’t fan-girled over the Vampire Chronicles for YEARS.

This is one of Lestat’s homes
HOW DID U GET IN?? *seethes w/ jealousy*
Hey so I really want to make VC fanart. Does Anne Rice still do legal things when she finds out? I know that all happened a while ago (wayyyyyy before my time in being in fandoms) and I know there is fanart and fanfic out there but I am still paranoid.
^This is a legit screencap from her FB page, I just added the highlight. For the record, AR loves fanart, so keep it coming! ☆° ｡:.ﾟヽ(´∀`｡)ﾉﾟ.:｡+ﾟ ☆
As for the fanfic, here’s my long post on it, with a bunch of her statements about it, but basically, she ignores fanfic:
“I got upset about 20 years ago because I thought it would block me,” she says. “However, it’s been very easy to avoid reading any, so live and let live.
If I were a young writer, I’d want to own my own ideas. But maybe fan fiction is a transitional phase: whatever gets you there, gets you there.” – Anne Rice, Nov. 2012.
Still, her POTP occasionally bring things to her attention needlessly (like this blog post about someone’s bad experience in VC RP), with overly polite language like, “Anne, I hope that you’re aware that…” trying to provoke a response out of her. She still has rights and a lot more money than we do, so it’s important that we respect her.
Can someone make Garrett Borns a vampire? Please? He’s so beautiful, and has the voice of an angel. I think he’d make a gorgeous Louis.
#VC casting #YES
@annabellioncourt pointed this out to me and I have to agree that he’d make a a great vampire, and specifically, a gorgeous Louis
♥u♥
Also, as a side note, he’s 24 yrs old in 2016, so we’d have an actor playing really close to the canon age of the character!!! which is always good, bc he’s actually living that point in his life now, might be a little more authentic than reflecting back on it.
So he’s a singer and a model, and I looked up a few vids and couldn’t choose just one as an example. You can do the youtube and check him out there, but here’s a few things I had thoughts on:
[X] ^LOOKIT THIS SMILE. He has dimples which I think is a huge plus. Louis is, in fact, capable of smiling. I imagine Lestat made him wear the shades bc of reasons.
Lestat: “Oh, big Beatles fan? You like John Lennon so very much? Why don’t you wear shades like his, here- ”
Louis: “Those are more ELTON John than John Lennon, Lestat.”
Lestat: “Put them on or I’ll put them on for you.”
^His little smile, in this dreamy lighting, he’s got that ethereal quality we require in a Louis.
^”Oh god Lestat, what fresh hell have you caused?” He’s got the right build, too, that muscular but spare body.
Hit the jump for a fewww moar.
^”That sounds awful deal with it YOURSELF” Louis is actually COLD AS ICE.
^Someone is gonna get yelled at for unauthorized haircut.
^Nobody ships Louis/Madeleine except Madeleine.
