Never forget that Lestat risked exposure of some kind, in front of the men he was with after buying things for family, to quickly and frighteningly examine a rat’s little feet.
physically, i’m here. but mentally i’m staring into a flickering candle flame and contemplating my eternal damnation while lestat throws grapes at me.
Let’s talk about vampires and bubble gum. Can they have it? Do you think they like it? I bet Lestat discovers it and starts trying like EVERY flavor (though he has certain favorites).
I think vampires would be curious about it, even if it existed during their lifetime (definitely for Daniel), there are new flavors, shapes and sizes of gum these days!

As far as actually enjoying gum, idk, I’m of two minds with that. On the one hand, I like the idea of Lestat doing it just to irritate ppl, blowing big bubbles, and popping them while someone is trying to talk *cough* Armand *cough* I’m sure he would find all the packaging/tins and
gumball machines graphically appealing.
On the other hand, I had an ask about whether they’d wear chapstick and I wrote:
The flavored makeup would probably not taste good to them like it does for us since those flavors are meant to simulate actual food; cherry chapstick – which I personally love bc it gives you tint and a pleasant smell/taste – would probably taste like a smear of motor oil to a Ricean vampire.
Soooo… I feel like gum, also meant to taste like food to mortals, could taste inedible to them. Altho even if it tasted bad, I think Lestat would still chew it just to be annoying #Actual 7 yr old.
Oh, to think that I thought I was suffering before. Naive me. Favouring the doomed, as if tumblr didn’t warm me. God do I love the book though, I can not thank you enough for keeping my interest alive by your blog until I could read on. ♥
You are so welcome! When encouragement isn’t enough I do throw grapes…
