(Same anon who asked about The Vampire Chronicles Because her sister loved it.) Dean Winchester and Lestat would have the same taste in music for sure.

(Anon refers to X] I bet they would! @lokitapendragon, any specific songs Lestat and Dean would rock out to in the car together?

*Cracks knuckles* OH HONEY.

“Pour Some Sugar On Me” by Def Leppard. Lestat belts it out with a heavy French accent and Dean mocks him loudly. Dean cannot sing it to save his life.

“Highway to Hell” by AC/DC. Dean tries and fails to imitate the semi-screaming. Lestat laughs, both at the lyrics and Dean’s horrible singing.

“Wanted Dead or Alive” by Bon Jovi. Lestat plays this song on repeat until Sam and Louis and literally everyone else begs him to shut it off (Lestat CANONICALLY loves Bon Jovi so there.) Dean’s emotions are horribly mixed because it still reminds him of the days before he went to Hell.

“Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor. Neither of them understand how cheesy everyone else finds this song, or why everybody starts laughing when they strut into the room in their shades with it as a soundtrack.

“Don’t Fear the Reaper” by Blue Oyster Cult. Lestat seduced and killed victims to this song when it was still new and playing on transistor radios. Dean remembers it from childhood when his dad used it to drown out the sounds of a hunt for toddler Sammy, who got left in the car.

“Heat of the Moment” by Asia. Dean plays this one around Lestat because for some reason it makes Sammy freak out. Louis thinks it’s the most ridiculous thing he’s ever heard. When Sam walks in he actually punches the cassette out of the stereo. Lestat asks Dean what set him off.

“Paradise City” by Guns ‘N’ Roses. If Dean’s hearing hadn’t been blown away by all the years of shooting guns with no ear protection or Lestat was mortal, they would both destroy their eardrums cranking this one.

“Rock You Like a Hurricane” by The Scorpions. I don’t know, I have mental images of them both walking into some skeazy bar (both hunting, just for different things?) while this is playing.

I could go on indefinitely so I’ll stop it right there.

^NICE! (Also I love all these songs, BTW)

^I think they’d both agree on this ;D

@Anon asking about starting VC: I’m an AVID Supernatural girl and grew up on Lestat, and I’d say that one of the fundamental differences between the two worlds is the attitude. VC is GOTHIC, complete with lace cuffs and candlelight. Supernatural is AMERICAN gothic. If it can’t be solved with a shotgun or a punch in the teeth, they’re gonna struggle with it. So Anon- give it a shot. I’d even say start with Vampire Lestat, ’cause he’s just that awesome. Feel free to message me about both!

Hey Anon, @lokitapendragon is here for your Supernatural and VC feels!

We’re always here for crossover fanart/fanfic whenever anyone’s willing to make it, btw… lookit these 2 idiots they’d get into so much trouble together

Thank you for telling me about the merch. I too find They I Would Bleed For Lestat onesie tasteless.

You’re welcome! 

Maybe that person was inspired by the part in book!IWTV, in which a young vampire (some kind of nurse?) brings a baby to Lestat as a victim but you can tell Lestat doesn’t want it: “‘You might have brought me something else!’ said Lestat bitterly.” (And he didn’t try to take it back when Louis takes the baby away.)

^Lestat @ being offered a baby for dinner & also us @ being offered that gross onesie.

(I think that younger vampire was just trying to bring him the easiest and most portable snack, and babies don’t fight back like dogs or cats do when they’re carried around by a stranger? IDK.)

I have a bunch of fanmade merch collected up in #the merch we deserve tag, if anything strikes you as smtg you want, you should buy it if you can, bc you never know when/if it might be taken down.
