2. Fill in the questions/statements as if you were your muse 3. Tag five people to do this meme~
1. What is your name? “Lestat de Lioncourt.”
1.1 What is your real name? “…I know, it sounds like a made up name, but it is what it is.”
2. Do you know why you were called that? ”Well, I’ve been told that it could be derived from the Old French word l’estat, meaning ‘state, or status.’ I suppose that is fitting, given that my father was a Marquis. Not that we had had much money by the time I was born. Although I think my mother simply used the first letters of each of my brothers’ names in order to spell mine. After having six children, naming must have been difficult.”
3. Are you single or taken? “Oh, quite taken, I’d say.”
4. Have any abilities or powers? "Plenty. I can fly, for example. There are not many of my kind that can do that. Mind reading and rapid healing are other notable abilities I have.”
5. Stop being a Mary Sue "I’m not sure what you mean. Last time I checked, I was very male…”
6. What’s your eye color? "Grey. Of course, they can look blue or even violet depending on the lighting.”
7. How about your hair color? “Blonde. Beautifully blonde.”
8. Have you any family members? “There is my mother, Gabrielle. I, of course, consider both Louis and David family, as well. ”
9. Oh? What about pets? “I had a dog once: Mojo. He passed away many years ago. I have not had the heart to adopt another dog since.”
10. That’s cool I guess, now tell me about something you don’t like. “I dislike being controlled in any way, shape, or form.”
11. Do you have any hobbies/activities you like doing? “I enjoy music quite a lot. I do play the violin. Oh, I’ve always enjoyed acting, too. Though it has been quite a long time since I have been on the stage.”
12. Ever hurt anyone before? “More than I care to admit.”
13. Ever….killed anyone before? “Yes.”
14. What kind of animal are you? “A dog. I’m definitely a dog.”
15. Name your worst habits “I often do not think before speaking or acting. It gets me into trouble all the time.”
16. Do you look up to anyone at all? “My mother, Gabrielle, for one. How she manages to travel so much and with so little is beyond me. I also look of to Louis, for reasons of my own, but do not let him know I said that. He’d hold it over me for centuries.”
17. Gay, straight, or bisexual? "Bisexual is probably the closest term, though I’m admittedly more partial to men.”
18. Do you go to school? “I studied at a convent for a short time when I was young. Outside of that, I am all self-taught.”
19. Do you ever want to marry and have kids one day? *snorts with laughter* “As if that were possible for me. You must be joking, right?”
20. Do you have any fanboys/fangirls? “Oh, yes. I believe I have an army. If I wanted, I could probably conquer a country, given time.”
21. What are you most afraid of? “I’m very much afraid of…ending up completely and utterly alone…”

29. Favourite drink? “…are you honestly asking me this question?”
30. What’s your favourite place? “Please. New Orleans.”

32. What’s your bra cup size and/or how big is your willy? “I’m well endowed.”

YES. Yes, there are six shots in the set, the two I released are the best of the set, and I had ‘shopped them a little before posting.
I’ve been hoarding the other shots bc HEY I gotta ration my content out… as it is I post WAY too regularly, oughtta make you guys a little thirstier for it, hmmm? No I can’t do that!! MUST POST FREQUENTLY IN THE NAME OF THE FANDOM.
*ahem* Yeah sooo re: the remaining 4 shots, they should be pretty easy to find online, but I’ll release them after I have a chance to ‘shop them a bit. BC QUALITY.
For a little more info on the fangs, check out this post. You could have owned a pair of Brad’s fangs at one point. *siiigh*
Firstofall well of course you love my blog how could u not it is a heartbreaking work of staggering genius ;} Naw, j/k, I am always always grateful for kind words like that, thank u very much ❤
Secondly, winged eyeliner takes mad practice, I’ve been doing it since I was 11, and now I can do it on board a moving subway train. People watch me, they expect me to mess up, perhaps? But I DO NOT. Mad skills.
Thirdly, Yes, I’d agree that Mr. Morrison was definitely an influence on AR for Lestat. His rockstar stage presence is very Lestatuesque. I enjoyed Val Kilmer’s Jim Morrison also.
GRANTED (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧ Fan Questions for Lestat! Let me know if I missed any 😉 i tried so hard and got so far but in the end i couldnt keep up with the onslaught of those fan questions argh
This ficlet is worth mentioning, too, since it takes one of those FQL’s as inspiration 😉
I also has a tag for other Facebook posts, some are relevant for various reasons, like this one:
There are, of course, others, but I am not as familiar with them. You might ask merciful-death or thevampirecreole or gentlemanlymalice, as they are Louis RP blogs and will have a more inclusive idea of which Lestats are active.
Bon chance!
Ooooh, useful list of Lestats there. merci for the mention! ❤
When I RP as Lestat, I do use Monsieur Cruise as my FC bc of reasons ❤
(but I don’t usually feel like actually adding the pics into the threads y’know?)(bc I don’t make/have small icons of him)(I do try to add pics on Asks, tho).
♥u♥ omg wowww!! 1,000 is a real milestone! I am quite honored to be #1,000.
I have a burning need to add the book inserts when the fanart captures it so perfectly ❤
Special commission fanart just for me ;u; I am enormously grateful, what a gift. I’ll come up with a good request, worthy of your skillz, and submit to your askbox.
“…it was [Claudia’s] pleading that forced me to give up my rusty black for dandy jackets and silk ties and soft gray coats and gloves and black capes. Lestat thought the best color at all times for vampires was black, possibly the only aesthetic principle he steadfastly maintained, but he wasn’t opposed to anything which smacked of style and excess.”
– Louis de Pointe du Lac, Interview with the Vampire
Thinking that “someone who wears all black = goth” was an older sorta view of goth. Now there’s pastel goth, and steampunk goth, and all these crazy variations.
See, when people try to label me, I know what’s really happening, they’re trying to categorize, trying to assign words to something to better understand it… Maybe in the way that when people ask “Where are you from?” And you say, “New Jersey,” or “Portland,” or wherever, they are adding to their knowledge base of “People from New Jersey are ______“ or "People from Portland are ______”. When in fact you really can’t compare one New Jersian or a Portlandian so simply. If I meet a nice person from Portland, are they ALL nice people there? Pfffft. Nope.
When an older person says, “Wearing all black makes you look goth,” sometimes I feel like that’s a veiled kind of criticism, what they’re really saying is: “Other people who do not know you like I do might think that you are goth and make assumptions about you because you are dressed like one.”
Maybe they’re trying to help, like, if I had smtg on my face I would want someone to say, “Hey, are you okay, there’s alot of blood dripping down your chin there…”
