“I, myself, identify completely with Lestat. I can say Lestat is my other self, he’s my male self. He and I travel together. He does the things I wish I could do, but can’t. I love the fact that people identify with him. I worked very hard, and at the same time, it was a great joy to get a very intimate voice in the Lestat books. Lestat really sounds like he’s sitting at the table, talking to you, because that’s the way I feel about him when I’m writing–that he’s right there, telling me the story, leaning over my shoulder, telling me to get it right, pointing out things I should change, breathing down my neck, doing everything but biting me! Which he wouldn’t dare!”
My ideal cast is right heeeeere check it out… I did that fairly recently, just edited it a little tonight. (You can also check out my #vc casting tag for moar opinions on this. I need a real Navigation page it’s in the works I promise!)
As for YOUR ideas, I’m only giving them a little consideration each to keep the post concise 😉 but I think it helps, when there’s a chunk of suggestions, to see them all heaped up together as a group, bc they WILL be meshing and bouncing off each other, like ingredients in a recipe.
Harry Lloyd as Lestat: You have my vote, lookit this cutie and this smile and just *flails* I don’t watch GoT so I can’t say for sure but from the gifs I’ve seen, he has the right physical appearance to satisfy my headcanon, and he has this brightness and optimism. He seems like he could also slay 8 wolves by himself.
Mads Mikkelsen as Marius: I have trouble visualizing this choice, bc I’ve just binged a TON of Hannibal, but he is pretty fantastic so why not consider him? Also loved him in Casino Royale but that was a very non-Marius role. Physically, I’m kind of leaning towards my own choices for Marius, in my post above.
^One thing more, tho, is that Marius is very paternal and I think MM gives off a great, strong, paternal vibe.
Tilda Swinton as Gabrielle: Well, maybe! She already played a vampire, not sure that she’d be willing to play another. She was amazing in Only Lovers Left Alive. She is very skinny, tho. [X] I think a Swinton!Gabrielle would blend well with a Lloyd!Lestat.
Hit the jump for 2 moar.
Kit Harrington as Nicki: I got an Anon about this, and at the time I searched AR’s FB page re: “someone suggested Kit Harrington as Nicolas to Anne and she loved the idea,” and didn’t find it 😛 Has anyone else seen that? I know she’s a big GoT fan, but idk about Kit playing Nicolas. Kinda big, isn’t he? Maybe he’s just buff for GoT. I picture Nicolas as more slender.But KH is apparently a very good actor, and I do also approve of him shirtless so let’s get him a job somehow…
Ben Barnes as Louis: I got an Anon about him for Louis, and appearance-wise, they are similar. And looking at my comments on that post, I still think he’d be a better Nicolas, he has this sass about him. Louis’ sass is kind of understated, Nicolas’ sass is as big and bold as a slap to the face.
I need to make a nicer post for commissions but this is the best I have for now! I’ll draw pretty much anything, just ask and I’ll do my best. Feel free to shoot me a message or email me at: heavensong_5@outlook.com if you’re interested or have any questions. Thanks for looking! :]
When it’s good, there’s sort of nothing like it. When you’re in the moment, and the audience is with you, and you’re telling that story, and it’s alive, and it’s happening… and it feels like it’s never happened before, there’s nothing better. It’s just like flying.
I’ve
been skating on and off for years and always had a fascination for
figure skating. This past season I finally decided to go to a
coach to develop myself further. It’s been super fun and exciting, and
put skating at the forefront of my thoughts for months.
Then I came across this post
and boom! – the Thorki skating AU swept me away (late to the party, as always). Not to mention I
developed a fascination for Johnny Weir as well, such a wonderboy! T3T ♥
I keep thinking what Loki would skate to…and I keep going back to some dark and epic music, like Time to Die
by Immediate Music (just picture Loki doing triple and quadruple Axels
to that, omg). *_* Thor is of course on the hockey team and he’s a brute
in sport, but a softie in life. xD And then there are different
variations… in one they are brothers, in another they just meet by
chance on the ice. Oh the possibilities~
