ooc; Can anyone tell me the exact year Daniel Molloy was given the dark gift? QOTD isn’t that clear!

@i-want-my-iwtv : Could use your expertise!

I totally understand your confusion, IIRC, it’s not explicitly stated in QOTD. Here’s the section heading in TVL that shows us the year for the concert:

“Lestat de Lioncourt
In the year of his Resurrection 1984 

Dionysus in San Francisco
1985″

The SF concert, 10/31/1985, was gonna be the first stop on the tour. Daniel is turned the night before that first concert. So there’s your info! 

This is backed up by the fact that Daniel interviewed Louis sometime between 1973-5 (it was published in April of 1976), and then had a… well… let’s call it a ~long and drawn out courtship~ with Armand for some 10-12 years:

  • 10 years ago: ”And what would a mortal lover matter then, a human who’d been no more than a toy for a decade?” -QOTD
  • 12+ years ago:  “…an old crumpled royalty check for the book Interview with the Vampire,  which he had “written” under a pseudonym over twelve years ago.” 

    -QOTD

Louis, the watcher, the patient one, was there on account of love pure and simple. The two had found each other only last night, and theirs had been an extraordinary reunion. Louis would go where Lestat led him. Louis would perish if Lestat perished

I want to do a piece of Lestat when he was a young human and he fought the wolves…but I can’t remember some of the details.
Like…how many dogs he had, what kind…I remember he brought a morning star but… What else? :-T I don’t own the book to reference it

Two dogs, this I know.

Yup. “And here I was going out to hunt in rawhide boots and buckskin coat, with these ancient weapons tied to the saddle, and my two biggest mastiffs beside me in their spiked collars.”
