Lestat interviewing Marius:

Lestat: So you just spent awhile talking about Louis. What were you thinking about me at that time, prior to the concert?

Marius: That Louis was waiting for you.

Lestat: Ok, yes, but what about ME?

Marius: …

Lestat: …

Marius: …

Lestat: Well I’m just saying you were very descriptive about Louis and Gabrielle so I just want to keep your voice consistent. What did you think about me at the time?

Marius: That you were the damnedest creature. 

Lestat: Really? You mean that?

Marius: Yes, a brat prince.

Lestat: Go on.

Marius: *sigh*

Lestat: *pouts*

Marius: Okay. Honestly you are such a child. -pauses- Face and form…  The  ice-blue eyes, darkening with laughter; the generous smile; the way the  eyebrows came together in a boyish scowl; the sudden flares of high spirits and blasphemous humor. 

Lestat: And?

Marius: Lestat!

Lestat: What? I just want the full story. Talk about my body.

Marius: *grumbles* Even the catlike poise of the body… So uncommon in a man of muscular build. Such strength, always such strength. 

Lestat: Oooh that’s good stuff… *writes* You make me sound so cool.

Marius: …such irrepressible optimism. *groans*

Lestat: Okay now we can move on.

I hate to be “that” person, but how do you pronounce: Amadeo, Khayman, Makare, Maharet, and Enkil?

No, that’s not being “that” person at all! What IS being “that” person is being all overly offended at someone else’s pronunciation, so before I answer I’ll just remind y’all that these are fictional characters, there’s no right way to pronounce them, I don’t care if you have a master’s degree in Etymology and/or Linguistics, named your pet/child after them, have a friend with the same name, even if you are the creator of the series, anyone is free to pronounce these names however they want.

Amadeo- “ah-mah-DAY-oh” or “ah-MAD-eeyo,” I sorta use both.

Khayman- “Kay-men”

Mekare- “mee-CARE” or “mek-ARRAY,” personally, I prefer the first option.

Maharet-  “maha-RET” (emphasis on the last syllable like “Margaret”), or “MAH-harret” (emphasis on the first syllable), or “muh-HAH-ret” (emphasis on the second syllable). Personally, I prefer the last option.

(redhairedtwin may disagree with me on the twins, she can add her two cents if she wants to do so.)

BONUS… hit the jump.

Keep reading

Ah! godsize reminded me that I forgot Enkil! So sorries!

Enkil- “en-KILL” or “ON-keel” 

I want to pinch Lestats cheeks

Or are you… do you mean my ass? It’s so strange that pinching, smacking, really any touching of the butt is so much fun to do. What reaction are we looking for when we do it? Anything! A jump, a giggle, but really I think we’re trying to motivate (or figure out whether there’s a chance of) sexytiems.

Louis says he hates it when I do any of that to him but it so often leads to a good result that I can tell you he’s sending mixed messages on that *winks*

I love it when he pinches my cheeks. Face or otherwise.

I believe it was in “Queen of the Damned” in which Khayman spoke of a power akin to technopathy. He was able to understand the use, composition, and function of any device, down to a molecular level, by simply looking at it.

I’m not sure that that’s the exact word for it, but the Ricean vampires in general have implied that they’re adaptive, inquisitive, they learn things easily and much faster than mortals. I can’t find the quotes to support it but I’m 99% sure that Lestat learned to read/write by watching people do it (his monastery schooling only gave him so much: ”I couldn’t read or write more than a few prayers and my name.” TVL)
