Rating: Mature Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Fluff and Angst, Eventual Smut, Mild Smut Characters: Lestat, Louis, Armand, Daniel Words: 3835 Summary:Drawing near to the holiday season, Lestat, Louis, Daniel, and Armand go to a closed big box store to play with the goods. Goods get played with, in more ways than one.
Notes: This is a belated fic gift* to @thelionscrimsonclaws who had requested “A drabble… involving something rather intimate for the holidays between myself and another soul I am close to, perhaps?”Go by the “time stamps” in parenthesis for the order, the first one is the only one that occurs out of chronological order ;]Also, fair warning, Armand is /extra/ bully-ish here. Huge thank you to @wicked-felina(aka @Rebness) for touchups and beta-reading throughout the process; and @gairid (aka @vampchronfic)for writing some of the ending for me when I got stuck, could not have done this piece without you two!
*From the 2015 exchange! To be fair, I offered to substitute in for their assigned Santa, who flaked. And then I wasn’t inspired until now. Sorry for the delay… *cries*
My goal with this blog has always been to share fanworks and positivity (and the #not VC stuff that slips in if I feel like it serves some relevant purpose) and to make people feel included, if possible.
Fandom is a nebulous thing, but being supportive of fanworks and ideas is a good way to be inclusive. It’s made the whole experience so rich for me, and brought some wonderful ppl into my life, whether I talk to them regularly or just see their comments/tags, see their RP or ideas in my dash, etc ^_____^
Yes, I remember your encouraging comments on the
collab I did w/ @wicked-felina (Rebness). Thank u for sticking with us throughout, your comments really kept us motivated and fast with the updates *hugs* Comments like yours made it so much more fun than if Rebness and I were writing just for each other, and we definitely want to collab again! ♥♥♥
Story: To Love Again
Fandom: IWTV Movie
Ship: Loustat
WordCount: 1,100 something (not including end note)
Chapter: One
Synopsis: A quiet night. A small cafe. A crowded club. It has been nearly twenty years since Louis has seen Lestat and now- well now it’s different; now he’s different. How long can this go on before Lestat notices, before he sees him. And how long can Louis keep himself hidden, keep himself invisible.
Last chapter and epilogue posted today. Thanks again to the magnificient @wicked-felina for doing this with me, it was so much fun! I hope to collaborate with her again in the future!
[^X this is the actual Signature Blend, Dandelion and Chicory Chai by Emily Han, if you’d like to try it yourself!]
*there may be some extra scenes posted in a spin-off collection if we have sufficient motivation….
Go and read this wonderful fic immediately…it’s got everything you waant in a vc fic minus the fangs! Perfection in characterization lots of angst, romance, friendship and coffee. What more could you want? Go! Read!
Merci!
@vampchronfic is one of my absolute fave writers and a huge inspiration both in style and headcanons, so if you enjoyed our fic, please check out her works, too: Gairid on AO3.

That’s so sweet of you! You’ve made my day, telling @wicked-felina and me this *u*
VC has few F/F (are we supposed to call them w|w now?) ships, there is plenty of room for more. It would be such an honor if Yvette and Jesse became a new ship thanks to our little AU!
Jesse/Yvette was something we didn’t predict, and it’s not a real ship (yet!). Btw, that’s Hattie Watson as Jesse on the right, from her IG. I’m using a pic of Yvette from movie!IWTV bc our Yvette was originally inspired by movie!IWTV’s Yvette, who some of us headcanon grew up with Louis and was more of a sister to him than his own sister. That they genuinely cared about eachother. In our fic,
Yvette is a baker par excellence, grew up with Louis, and they even were a couple at one point. That’s long over now, but they’re very good friends.
[X] Lookit this cutie, Hattie Watson! She has tatts, she could be a modern AU Jesse w/ tatts.
