Do you think Lestat and the others like Michael Jackson? … Like…would Lestat dance to MJ ?

[X]

I bet they do! Lestat would totally dance to MJ. And sing like him. Until the coven started throwing things at him to get him to stop. But he can do a perfect imitation.

The real moonwalker is Louis, though. All that grace ;]

Daniel has tried to teach the group to dance to Thriller, but Armand refuses, he finds it distasteful, it reminds him of the Grand Sabbats.

Daniel: “C’mon Armand it’s FUN”

Armand: “You look like you’re having a seizure.”

Wasn’t Oak Alley used in Gone With the Wind too?

Um, I don’t think so, doesn’t say that on the website…

But this is a good excuse to remind everyone of the:

40th Annual Christmas Bonfire Party at Pointe du Lac Oak Alley!

Saturday, December 5, 2015 – 7:00pm to Midnight

It will NOT be this kind of bonfire, FYI:

I volunteer to do the cosplay video of the lestat/louis wedding! i’ve got my perfect bunch of nerd friends who would be happy to get on this right away, it wont be as extravagant but we’ll give it a go

Please do! Make the fiction a reality ❤

How do you think the main vampires (Lestat, Louis, Armand, etc) flirt and act when they have a crush on somebody?

Did u want this answered seriously? I can’t do that, it would take a dissertation #Read the Books.

Lestat hunts down his object of affection and throws himself at them, quite literally:

Armand obsesses over his object of affection and tries to woo them with his Mind Gift and/or fine cultural activities:

Claudia turns on the waterworks to get what she wants:

Louis extends the invitation and lets people sweep him off his feet:

Daniel interviews people he’s interested in:

Marius likes to control his object of affection (which seldom works):

I was watching IWTV (for the second time today) and I thought at the scene in the Taverne du Chat Noir, at the beginning, was Lestat influencing that guy’s mind to not kill Louis? Do you have thoughts on this?

Quite possibly!

Lestat’s Mind Gift at that time was more for when he was directly interacting with the person, but  in TVL he could call a horse to him from a distance with it. 

I don’t know if Lestat’s Mind Gift was ever as fine-tuned as Armand’s, tho, in the sense of bending someone’s will as far as Armand could bend it. Armand used his Mind Gift to manipulate Louis into making a vampire, which was the last thing Louis ever wanted to do!

“Her face was angular and her cheekbones perfect, very high and broadly spaced but delicate. Her jaw line was strong yet exquisitely feminine. And she had very clear cobalt blue eyes fringed with thick ashen lashes.  
If there was any flaw in her it was perhaps that all her features were too small, too kittenish, and made her look like a girl. Her eyes became even smaller when she was angry, and though her mouth was sweet, it often appeared hard. It did not turn down, it wasn’t twisted in any way, it was like a little pink rose on her face. But her cheeks were very smooth and her face narrow, and when she looked very serious, her mouth, without changing at all, looked mean for some reason.”

Ricean vampire asexuality

inesbc2001 asked: 

Hi, so I’m dying to know what the VC Tumblr fandom thinks about vampire sexuality.

IMO the fact that vampires don’t have sex doesn’t necessarily make them asexual.

I’m thinking about Marius with Amadeo in Blood and Gold, and Louis with the mortal boy in Paris.

There is a passage in IWTV that goes roughly like this: “He pressed his whole body against my legs and I felt the firm strength of his sex under his clothes. A moan escaped from my lips…”

– I translated this myself from the Spanish version, but you get the idea 😉

I’d be thrilled to further discuss vampire sexuality.

That’s all, keep up the good work! 🙂

#Your headcanon may vary.

So I’ve discussed this topic at length in my tags for it: #asexuality, #asexual, #sex, #sexuality, #lets talk about sex.

It all depends on your idea of what sex is, but Anne Rice has been definitive about it:


The scene that you mention between Louis and the mortal boy: Louis is still capable of finding that boy’s hard on to be arousing, but he’s getting alot of sensory input in that moment, and Armand is probably manipulating him psychologically, too.

Marius/Amadeo: Amadeo is mortal and experiencing things differently than Marius is.

I’ll open this to discussion, what are your opinions/headcanon on Ricean vampire sexuality?
