based on the assumption that human blood can survive in a vampire for about the same amount of time it can in a human body, vampires would only need to feed three or four times a year (red blood cells live about 110 days on average). this would be if they completely drained all their victims.

humans can survive losing up to about 40% of their blood, which means that a vampire pushing their limits with each victim would probably need to feed 12 times a year minimum

so like once a month

Hey guess what else happens once a month involving blood

omg no

Now that’s recycling

i-want-my-iwtv

OuO a well-supported argument in #vampire physiology! 

(let’s not talk about Dora we don’t talk about Dora, Dora the nun, yes, that nun, who ended up feeding her monthly gift to someone… it was so awkward we don’t talk about Dora)

They can smell it, it smells like spilled blood to them, as usual… they say “Hunger is the best sauce” and that’s certainly true for Lestat (ew). 

Hit the jump for the scene from canon about this (and I think it was tastefully done, no pun intended) but I warn you, what has been read cannot be unread.

“Her menses. It was being neatly collected by a pad of white cotton
between her legs.

I let myself think of it now because the menses was
heavy and the smell was overpoweringly delicious to me. It began to
torture me, the thought of licking this blood. This isn’t pure blood,
you understand, but blood is its vehicle and I felt the normal

temptation that vampires do in such circumstances, to lick the blood from
her nethermouth between her legs, a way of feeding on her that
wouldn’t harm her.

Except under the circumstances it was a perfectly outrageous and
impossible thought.”

Later: “…

that special, perfumed blood collecting
neatly between her legs.”

MUCH LATER: “

“Forgive me, forgive me,” I whispered,

…and I lapped at the blood just inside her young pink vaginal
lips, just coming from the mouth of her womb, not pure blood, but
blood from her,… blood that brought no pain, no
sacrifice, only her gentle forbearance with me, with my unspeakable
act, my tongue going deep into her, drawing out the blood that was
yet to come, gently, gently,…

…taste and smell of blood, her sweet
blood, a place where blood flows free and no wound is made or ever
needs to be made, the entrance to her blood open to me in her
forgiveness.”  

Go to the book for more, I was trying to be really concise here. In the earlier part of the book when he smells it, he wants it bc blood is blood, but he can control himself and he knows it’s “a perfectly outrageous and impossible thought.”

Later, he had just gotten back from a traumatic adventure and he wanted the blood as a means of self-medication (comfort food!) as much as he needed the closeness to Dora herself. Vampires probably prefer wound blood. Maybe there are vampires who prefer it this way, though! It’s good that AR addressed the question ;]

I also have a tag with a few more posts about Dora the Nun and there’s fanart of this scene.

People make jokes about Twilight and what Edward does when Bella is on her period but during the vampire chronicles by Anne Rice in Memnoch the Devil that literally happens and nobody says a thing

Cause we are trying to forget it.

mon dieu we are trying SO HARD to forget this… and even worse, this is probs not the first time Lestat has done it, and he’s probs not the first vampire to try it.

The Obvious Solution

But like in the months Abigail spent living with Hannibal, did she ever need an emergency tampon run and Hannibal had to drive out to a 7-Eleven and stand in the isle and make the decision between Tampax Pearl and Tampax Radiant?????

I’m just going to leave this here so my fellow Vampire Chronicles/Hannibal fans can mentally insert the obvious solution. Because I’ve not been around to torment you properly. 😛

#oh yes i went there  #sorry not sorry  #am a troll  #hannibal  #vampire chronicles 

The Squickiest scene in the whole series. And 50% of the squick is the fact that poor David and Armand are just standing there watching it happen. It IS blood, after all.

VC – Memnoch Shenanigans by Eeba-ism

“Oh the horror on Armand’s face…

And David, the pity, the sympathy… 

And the shining gamine figure of my Dora, my slender yearning Dora with her huge black eyes…

I rolled her over gently… and pulled up her skirt…” – the Vampire Lestat, Memnoch the Devil

Oh. My. God.

Ok, ok… of course this moment seemed dramatic to me when I first read it, which is why i highlighted it (u should see all my VC books lol.. they glow). 

But when I went back to read it again I couldn’t help but laugh myself sick imagining Armand’s and David’s reactions to Lestat’s particular choice in cuisine once he’d made it back to Earth.

This is completely OOC, I know. But whatever. I couldn’t resist at least drawing a crappy little picture. It was just too funny in my head.

Oh, and I draw Armand with freckles. Deal.

This is. I would say. The Squickiest scene in the whole series. And 50% of the squick is the fact that poor David and Armand are just standing there watching it happen. 

I love the fanart tho! This is probably the only fanart of that scene.
