The new VC book looks like it’s gonna be a mess. It’s about Atlantis. The whole fandom is just laughing at this point.

mpreg fanatics, this is your chance

Who could be the mother of vampire sea horse Louis’ children!? How will Lestat the sea-horse-vampire-merman react to the reveal? Don’t miss the next week’s exciting new episode of Dragon Ball Z

mpreg fanatics, this is your chance!

#PLROA is the gift that keeps on giving

Lestat: “DONT MOPE I DONT WANT OUR BABIES TO BE MOPEY

Louis: *mopes*

I’m reading the Queen of the Damned and all of a sudden Lestat woke up with a boner. The only combination of letters to represent my feelings right now would be: asdfghjkl

But the important question is, why did Louis memorize this passage?

Idk there’s some discussion whether “poised” meant “boner” and I never interpreted that way, bc how awkward would it be for them to all be walking around w/ tents pitched in their pants? I THINK IT WOULDA BEEN MENTIONED BEFORE. Like in IWTV when Lestat first appears to Louis. Pretty sure Louis would have run screaming. 

I think “poised” meant “waiting in normal default resting position,” which sounds alot less poetic, and I think his point in mentioning it was bc he woke up alot whiter, and it was bizarre to see that change all over his body. Plus all these women were coming into the room and they were barely able to keep from pouncing on his joysitck, bc, y’know, LESTAT.

To follow up on the previous anon, do you think Lestat loves Louis?? I certainly do!!!

#nobody ships Louis and Lestat harder than Lestat ships Louis and Lestat

The passage you copied under the fanart.. wow. Later books always make me forget how terrifying Armand was in TVL.

Yes, Armand really can be terrifying. Why do you think Lestat’s so wary around him? This happens in later canon to remind you, tho:

Lestat, will you go shopping with me? I mean Louis is welcome to join. But you would just make things far more interesting , when it comes to shopping.

Mun here, you don’t want to go shopping w/ Lestat.

I don’t know if you are the one to ask but do you know if there are any ff of Lestat, Louis (and possibly the rest) reading ff about themselves? Because it would bee too meta and I love meta. Who should I ask if not you?

Ahhh… that is a tough one! They definitely like the fanart of themselves.

[^X Digging up an oldie from the archive which I have tidied up a little for ya and I would just like to mention that the above was screencapped from the ACTUAL TV screen so there is interlacing and whatever I don’t care it adds to the charm, oui/oui? but HEY it motivated me to improve my graphic skills for y’all and I DID]

The only writer that immediately comes to mind is our very own fandom treasure @gairid, who has a Through the 4th Wall, Darkly series which does something in the vein (pun intended hehehe) of what you’re looking for, feels meta. It’s mostly the characters discussing Lestat’s ghostwriter: “Really, Lestat, you need to have a talk with her. It’s getting out of hand. What sort of biographer makes everything up without the slightest regard to the truth?” *giggles*

Gonna open this up to the group and ask anyone to reblog or comment on this post if they know of fic that does this!

Cut for length.


There is another current writer I know of who does more of what you’re looking for on a regular basis BUT she doesn’t post publicly ;A; I will try to nudge her onto AO3 in your honor ;] To be honest, the interaction of the VC characters w/ fanfic of themselves is usually described as their being amused and/or creeped out, as most ppl who find out about RPF of themselves seem to be.

Lestat would be hella flattered and in fact…. he has written really shmoopy fluff of himself and Louis, which he has not-so-subtly tried to get Louis to read. Louis reads it and makes grammatical corrections and hands it back. Secretly, he’s very touched.

Louis loves the fanart but is mildly creeped out by the fandom’s fanfic of himself, partly bc he thinks the writers spend too much time glorifying his appearance, and/or he’s written out of character.

Louis: “Why do they all think I’m sunk in this, this deep depression all the time? I… do things… I go out.” 

Lestat: “How much of the evening do you spend outside if I don’t drag you out?” 

Louis: “Well, I have to go out to feed.”

Lestat: “And that takes, what, 30 or 40 minutes?”

Louis: “Yes, about.”

Lestat: “So you go out, on average, 35 minutes a night.”

Louis: “Depression is not defined by the lack of amount of time spent outside!”

Lestat: –

Louis: –

Lestat: –

Louis: “Shut up.”

How do you picture lestats band sounding? I always picture a danger says era My Chemical Romance thing

I think that’s different for everyone, and #your headcanon may vary, so your headcanon is as valid as any! Who knows how true to canon the new adaptation will be? It would be fine with me if they want to update his musical taste/sound, as long as it seems in character. 

But canon-wise, Lestat awoke in the mid-80s, before MCR was formed. AR wrote TVL w/ the 70′s and 80′s in mind. She’s mentioned Bon Jovi was a major Lestat muse for her (she even included him on the PL dedication page).

There’s fanon that Lestat loves Bruce Springsteen, too. So I’d say he would sound like a mix of Guns ‘n Roses, Bon Jovi, and Bruce Springsteen.

When whoever was in charge chose Korn to be the sound for Lestat’s band in movie!QOTD, they weren’t aiming for canon accuracy, but it was an interesting take on it. 

There’s also a Lestat band on FB you can check out, I think they officially got AR’s permission to use the name.
