Edit: funnily enough, the quality turned out much better when taking pictures of this vampire boy in daylight.
Old version, the picture was taken by night:
//Sorry for the bad quality of the photographs. My phone wasn’t cooperating and it looks like it distorted the big picture a little aswell. The insane amount of detail of the hair was lost in the process.
Amadeo requested to follow me on the twittre! OH MY. Of course I accepted. You don’t tell Amadeo not to follow you. He’ll do it anyway. Just ask Daniel.
//Another Armand for Inktober. I found the reddish-brownish ink sitting on my shelf and thought d throw it into the mix. And why no use some goldleaf whilst I’m at it? The whole picture is TINY and intended to be a sketch only, but I think it turned out pretty enough for a first try. WHY DIDN’T ANYBODY TELL ME THAT (K)INKTOBER WAS A THING?! Be prepared! PS: The outfit is something I’ve had in mind for a long time. It appeared in one of my RPGs with my Louis and was stuck in my head ever since.
//The boys, obviously well behaved. Marius better be proud.

Hey it’s a valid question, I getcha >;} I’ve thought about it, too!
[^X a piece of my commissioned art drawn by the awesomeness that is @riwox, and there is a panel in it w/ oral action, but it’s just licking.]
Look at this comic that @remarried did, too, btw, along these lines, which I can’t bear to chop even a piece out of bc it has to be seen in FULL to be enjoyed!
IDK about other vampires but as far as VC goes, vampire dicks don’t get erect (there is alot of debate about this)(and I love writing/reading fanfic and seeing fanart in which their dicks DO work!)(but in canon, from my reading, I would say that they do not) so it’s kind of a moot point. But I do think they would still involve it in intimacy if they wanted to. See this post by @amadeo-child-of-the-renaissance w/ comments from @gairid. #Your headcanon may vary on this.
IN CANON: I don’t think that either vampire/vampire or vampire/mortal blowjobs are addressed in canon. I believe that anything that can be bitten can be an erogenous zone, and would enjoy being bitten anywhere, and they could bite mortal’s boners. Now I have this image of a dick just deflating on being drained of blood lol…
How is there very much space in the mouth with those fangs there, tho? Especially if you buy that they may have other sharpened teeth than just the canines. Can they even take a dick in their mouths w/o cutting it? It’s fun to read in fanfic, but would there really be enough space for it? I’m not sure!
I would think that vampires would be limited in their blowjob abilities, unless the vampire’s mouth is big and/or the dick in question is relatively smaller XD
TL;DR: I do think vampires have to resist the urge to suck all the blood out of a dick during a blowjob, if they want that dick to keep working.
//You know… physically speaking vampires would still be able to be on the receiving end of sex. It’s not like their orifices were supernaturally disappearing after being turned… A functioning member is not the only thing that grants a man the ability to have sex.
Some vampires say the blood acts as a sort of substitute. That they simply don’t feel the need to have sex in a physical way. Which is fine. To each their own.
But I sometimes I can’t help but wonder if it is really necessary to view the (IMHO obviously remaining) anatomical ability of vampires to still have sex in some form as a thing that is somehow suddenly so impossible that it borders on the absurd to even think of it. Some seem to be rather aggressive about it-
I’m in agreement – Blood-sharing is the highest form of intimacy between vampires but why should that include other forms of intimacy and closeness, especially with creatures who are so attuned to physical sensation? We were told in the Story of the Twins that the spirit Amel (and this was known even before we learned AR’s take on what Amel really was/is in PL and PLRoA), was starved for the sensations of the physical, driven to wanting physical experience to the point that it actively sought contact, drew blood from human in minuscule amounts and then ultimately assumed a symbiotic relationship with Akasha’s body as she died, creating a new sort of being altogether.
It was about sensation, about experiencing all that was possible to experience. Vampire senses are enhanced upon their change from mortal to immortal and those enhancements continue throughout the existence of the vampire. That’s my verbose way of saying –why deny the pleasures of the flesh (unless that is one’s choice rather than an impossibility)?
And if the vampire embarks on a relationship with a mortal (probably not advisable, but arguable inevitable with some personalities) certainly there is nothing to prevent the vampire from pleasuring the mortal or even taking pleasure from that moral. In addition, the mind gift would likely have uses as an ehhancement.
Canonically, AR began with the idea that vampires did not have sex, but even that had exceptions(Marius and Pandora, for instance) after time had passed. It was described as less than satsfying. Many -most, actually- physiological details are left ambiguous, so who is to say what is functional or not.
Fanfic, though…it goes anywhere the imaginations of the authors want to take it. Some prefer to stick to canon, others, not so much. There are as many variations as can be imagined and they can and do change with the levels of interest each author might want to express/explore. I don’t see either way why it would be impossible, only that the pull of blood-drinking might be al that some of them want. Everyone’s mileage vary on the subject, of course.
It’s a touchy subject, recommending blogs, as inevitably I’ll leave someone out and then they may feel, well, LEFT OUT :-
I don’t follow as many RP blogs as I used to, it was too much to keep up with the various threads, some have gone inactive, new ones have started up… All attempts to make VC directories usually fail.
However, and that said, so you know I’m not playing favorites, there are some I remember by name, and so I tagged them below, but this is an incomplete list. Let’s make this an Ask Armand and Armand RPer roundup! People Off The Page, reblog/comment with any Ask Armand and Armand RPer blog I left out 😉
