♛We do have magnificent long and sharp fangs, some of us even have more sharpened teeth than the usual two.
Oh yes, French kissing other vampires can be a
deliciously painful experience! We are all masochists by nature of what we are, whether or not we were in life.
Kissing mortals is a little more difficult, best to keep those kisses less intense, unless they know what we are, and then really, we just have to be careful with them. It can be extremely pleasurable for mortals, more than you might think.
Bless his sweet inexperienced heart, Louis was trying to kill this evildoer through her tongue!Would have taken ages, good thing I finished her off for him.
Hello again, anon that lost her shit finishing TVL! Keep us posted, I love these fresh impressions of VC bc I can never quite get mine back, that first experience of each of the books I’ve already read. And re-read. Although, I do bring smtg different to them on each re-read, as I’ve gotten older and had more of my own experiences and philosophical revisions to compare to our fave dysfunctional vampires’.
*nods* Yes, AR has shown us many voices in her writing,
I think you put it very well. She has given us POVs from the lofty to the much less lofty. The lofty POVs appeal to ppl who enjoy that and the more modern stuff appeals to ppl who enjoy that… @annabellioncourthelped me out on a post about the voice of Louis, his POV seems to draw on older literature, and he loves to read those books, so of course he would absorb that somewhat anachronistic flavor. Louis may be deliberately making his story a little difficult to read, as he is revealing a lot but also keeping some things secret, keeping Daniel at arm’s length.
^Footage of characters from their own POV chapters in one book vying for attention ❤
QOTD was a good collection of this bc she’s jumping characters a lot in that book, which she didn’t do in TVL and IWTV, except to have her main characters sit and listen to others tell their own stories. In those instances, we did get some variation in the POV, but again, it was through the filter of the person who later told/recorded the story for us, the readers (i.e. Lestat telling us about > Marius telling Lestat about > the Elder telling Marius about > the origin of the vampires! Check out @comixqueen‘s VC storyception!)
TVL is my fave bc Lestat. LESTAT! He does have flaws, for sure. Flaws that could spiral anyone into depression. But his lust for life overrides everything ❤
^And I think part of why we all love him (those of us that do love him) against our own better judgment is that even when he royally fracks up, he gets back up, dusts himself off, and careens into the next car.
♛The Dark Gift has its price, ma petite. Expensive in other ways. It’s one of the most fun gifts to give, I must admit. I feel excited just thinking about doing it again… I don’t think I’ll be giving any Dark Gifts given this month, but hey, we still have some 3 weeks left, you never know…
♛My darling, my night has hardly begun and all these lovely wishes have been delicious appetizers for the main course… which remains a surprise to me.
I owe you a nice long ride in the new Bugatti, at the very least. If he must be on the road for any length of time, a vampire king must do it in style, n’est-ce pas? *blows a kiss*
♛Unlike some OTHER vampires who won’t be named, I find great pleasure in appetizers, in factI’ve spent whole nights on them and not needed any entrées!
… But there have been a few instances, regrettably, when an appetizer became an entrée. It happens. I don’t make promises when it comes to my appetite. Might as well ask a lion to use a napkin.
