✾ – Why I chose my character

antoineandthepiano:

//That’s a very good question. I’d been on tumblr for some years on another blog and created my own original materials – it wasn’t a writing or fandom related blog / page. 

I’d always loved Anne Rice and started reading VC when I was 11. It helped me get through a lot of things in my life and overcome a lot of emotional pain. I knew with the VC characters I’d never be alone. [VC NERDDDDDD].

After coming back home after my trip of America I was inspired again to read VC, especially after seeing New Orleans. I had my copy of Prince Lestat delivered in November last year. I ate up the entire book as fast as I could! It was disappointing in so many way but I still enjoyed it. 

The story that really got to me was Antoine’s. It was a very short part of the novel, yet the ending of his story was amazing. I was jumping with joy when Armand greeted him at TG. Around this time I was looking for Interview with the Vampire memes and I came across i-want-my-iwtv. Through this page I found the fandom. I read and read and read threads for a few months. I wanted to be apart of it all. At first I thought I’d I would come on, however I talked myself out of it a few times. Until I just convinced myself that I wanted to be apart of the fandom. I picked Antoine because 1. there was no Antoine and 2. I could relate to him a lot. 

My favourite character is Armand, but there were already so many talented / amazing Armands. I knew I couldn’t match them in terms of staying true to the character. I never thought I would have written so much with Antoine. I though everyone would ignore me. Everyone has been so nice! 

SIDE NOTE: I’m spending 18 months on writing a novel. I hope to be published in under a year. It has nothing to do with he supernatural or vampires, but I hoped that joining the Fandom would improve my writing. 

^This is so sweet! I am so honored that my madness this blog opened the door for you. WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME.

I’ve been scrolling down your blog for the past 4 hours and I only just realized it. It’s 4:11 a.m. and tomorrow I have work and… I don’t know how I ended up like this. P.S.: I love your blog, in case you didn’t get that before.

paopaofh omg u r killing me how sweet!! i’m not worthy yes i am.

i haven’t read Prince Lestat yet, but did you not like it? i mean, i’ll probably read it as soon as i can, but i wanted yo know your opinion first. Also, are Louis and Armand in it?

I’m about 25% of the way through my slow and painful read of Prince Lestat. I have to say that there are some bits that I DO like, I wouldn’t throw the whole thing in the bin for it’s cracky plot points (which are hella cracky). 

Yes, Louis and Armand are very much in it 😉

Hey! I loved you prince Lestat fan gifs and I was wondering if you could post them but just till the part where Louis says “I don’t read trash” and Lestat is trying to holding together..I mean you don’t have to do it but I’ll really loved to ❤

Sure thang, I aim to please! [As requested] I’m curious to know who might have asked for this… 

Everyone has permission to repost my gifs/memeythings, whatever, as long as it’s reposted in good taste, but I’d love to be messaged or hyperlink-tagged so I can see where my fanwork has gone *u* 

You also sorta made me think about revising this one so it would loop better, which I did, so thanks for that 😉 It actually works as a stand-alone: is he repressing tears of sadness, joy, something else? Lestat loves crying after all. There Will probably Be a ton of L. de Lioncourt Blood tears in Prince Lestat (see what I did there??).
