Hello! I can’t recall reading any werewolf books (only Charm & Strange by Stephanie Kuehn which doesn’t count (its great, but readers know what i mean) and Angela Carter). They’re still my favorite beast. Any novel recommendations? Please and Ty!

Sorry, I don’t really read many werewolf stories.

Does anyone else know of any good ones?

[X] Not that I tried to read it ok i cracked the spine and skimmed it a bit but that was the best I could do for the initial exposure, but Anne Rice has a werewolf series going now. It made that Wiki list above.

I don’t know how many of the VC actively play video games or remember any pc games from the early to late 90s but the was a video game thriller-horror trilogy know as ‘The Gabriel Knight Mysteries’ which was heralded at its time for being the interactive equivalent of Anne Rice’s novels.

I also do not know how many of the VC fandom actively play video games, I played N64, Sega, old skool Nintendo… I stopped around Super Smash Bros. I never got into Pokemon but I hear the younger VC fandom is very nostalgic about that. 

I have never heard of this

Gabriel Knight Mysteries trilogy… I looked into it and I don’t quiiiite see the VC connection. Can you be more specific?

But yes, I’d love a VC videogame like FUCK YEAH BATTLE RUE ROYALE! I imagine it would be mostly fighting among coven members, not a game with missions, but either would be fine.

The pixellation here makes this look like a video game. Could u imagine a VC videogame??! I’m visualizing a scenario like Super Smash Bros. w/ Lestat vs. Armand… or Louis & Claudia vs.Vagabond European Vampire No. 73….

Also lots of creative murders like the Fire Gift and the Explodey-Heart-Gift on mortals. 

So the other day I was reading The Vampire Lestat, and I was at the part where Lestat played the violin for Akasha and Enkil and then Akasha freaked out and screamed and smashed the violin then things went down–but anyways. At that specific part, I’m pretty sure I started actually seeing it and hearing every single note and I heard Akasha’s screams and after that scene was over, I tore myself from the book and I felt dizzy and I felt like I had a beautiful nightmare and just ?? what was that—

Anne Rice be like: it can be a sweet dreeeam or a beautiful nightmaaare

My best friend dreamed last night that Lestat was bringing me to his and Louis’ apartment so Louis would finally meet me, because he wanted to make me a vampire. And they kissed each other, and then later put their arms around me and Lestat said I would be living WITH them. THEN we stumbled over some very young vampire who – apparantly – wanted to do something to me, but Lestat said: “She belongs to us” and “Only I make her a vampire”.

Sounds like a lovely dream!

Lestat would like to point out that:

  • He does not actually give the Dark Gift out to EVERYONE
  • He does admit that it’s hella fun to do when he does it
  • He does admit that he would prefer to do it himself than let Louis do it bc Louis is less experienced and other reasons
  • Lestat likes the part in your dream where he got to kiss Louis w/out any arguments
  • Lestat said that the “very young vampire” in your dream was not his fault, definitely not a failed daughter-figure. 

I don’t think that the ‘vampires having balls/testicles’ applies to VC. Like, I can think of like, seven character whom /actually/ have balls and they’re all women.

Ha! You have a point. There are some very awesomely ballsy VC women.

[re: Where did the idea of vampires having balls actually come from?]

whens armands bday?

Who knows? Does Armand himself know? Had Marius came up with some date as well as with the name? 
Fandom (at least part of it), as it seems, picked 11th November and celebrates it in RP. 

//I believe, as with Lestat’s bday and Louis’, it’s a thing AR stated somewhere.
Anyway, those are interesting questions. Armand probably would not know, specially because kids bdays were pretty much not a thing, so it’s unlikely the date was important in any way. On the other hand, with how much people liked astrology in Venice it’s possible they had picked a day for him? (Maybe Bianca did it xD) Maybe Marius would have liked to celebrate the boys bdays somehow? Interesting to consider.

…and it would also aggravate Armand to no end that everyone tends to make such a big deal for Lestat’s birthday 4 nights before his bc otherwise the Brat Prince throws a royal tantrum. The one-upmanship never ends.

Hm I seem to have an ultraviolet flashlight. I wonder what it would do to a vampire? *Stares at you intently*

♛ Hm, I wonder what it would do to YOU… *glances at the device, there’s a crackling sound, steam rises as the batteries melt and the whole thing finally burst into flames*

What’s this sudden fascination in you gray-faced minions in threatening me? *huffs* Everyone adores Louis and you must know by now that we’re… intimately attached to each other. You trying to rid the world of us both? 

Even Armand needs me alive and -relatively- mentally stable now! Heavy is the head that wears the crown, indeed.

♛Got a barrage of questions that are so similar in tone and landed in such succession that they are probably from the same gray face. My inbox reminded me somewhat of the rabble under Les Innocents, but the vampires of that filthy cemetery had a little more respect with their choice of questions, as you’ll see.

He says he’s chilled most of the time. Cold isn’t supposed to affect vampires, and yet here we are. It’s probably more psychosomatic than real cold, he usually complains of it more when I start scheming.

No, turtlenecks were a hideous invention. Even the word for them is unappealing. And I like turtles! Just… not their necks, particularly.

Ask @the-talamasca. They probably have more than one, as they have various operations.

No, I prefer it hot and fresh from the writhing source. Blood doesn’t microwave very well, either.

Just the fabulous butt I was born to darkness with! I had done some acrobatics during my time at the theatre. 

image

That’s nasty, and you must think I’m nasty to suggest such a thing to me. *waves it off*

That’s… should I be flattered? I’m sure there’s plenty of porn out there for you.

I’ve taken him around on my motorcycles, and we’ve had intimacy just about anywhere you can imagine. Why are you calling it “humping” now? Lame, as they say. Humping implies a time-consuming, arduous, unsuccessful effort. Banging, fucking, ravishing, these are better words that apply to people who actually have sex, unlike you.

I’ve already technically killed Louis, when I turned him, so that’s done. Fuck Armand because he’s probably got some amazing techniques. Marry Marius because I think we’d look good in the wedding pictures.
