Lestat gives up his voice to be a merman. Armand falls on his knees to thank God about it. Louis joins him.

Ok so what song does Lestat enjoy singing for Louis the most?
Heart – Without You. Louis hates this song.
♫I can’t live – if living is without you
I can’t give – I can’t give anymore
I can’t live – if living is without you♫
Have you or Louis ever heard of or have ever been to a library called El Ateneo Grand Splendid? It’s a 100 year old Theatre converted into a library in Argentina. I’ve only seen pictures of it and it looks amazingly beautiful.
♛Louis recently dragged me to this place in Buenos Aires kicking and screaming, I mean, a bookstore? Go down deep into South America for a bookstore. I was livid. Had to distract myself on the jet there by furiously scouring the internet for a drug cartel or some other high-level evildoer group to hunt there. I protested the entire trip. I laid such thick disdain on him for it…
[X] Until I walked through the entrance and fell in complete love with the place. A theatre! Converted, well, really more of a library, than a mere bookstore! Brightly lit, with people seated at tables on stage, delectable smelling coffees served as a pianist filled the space with pleasant melody. Small areas on balconies where still more people immersed themselves in fact and fiction. The place had a sense of grandeur, there was an echo of the history, all the stories that were orally told there, and all the stories now being told in paper.
It warmed my black little heart to make that connection, that a storyteller is still a storyteller, and an audience member still an audience member, in different fashions through the ages.
I had to find my section, of course. All of my novels have been translated into Spanish, and there they stood on two long shelves. I saw several fresh young teens sitting on the floor with my books open on their laps. If they had looked up for a moment, I’m sure they would have recognized me.
When I pointed out to him that there were no copies of Louis’ book, so it must be unpopular, he had the audacity to retort that his book was a better seller than any one of mine, and a quick inquiry with a salesperson confirmed that they were indeed sold out of his book. WELL.
I autographed a few copies of mine and tucked them back on the shelf anyway.
What does Marius think of Louis
Marius appreciates Louis for his human tenderness, his empathy, and Louis comes to Marius for paternal support. When they play strategy games like cards or chess, they’re among the best-matched opponents in the coven. Pandora’s at their level, too. All three have excellent poker faces.
Marius finds Louis aesthetically appealing but doesn’t have any romantic intentions towards him, but even so, he can’t help but be curious about “upgrading” Louis. For how it might enhance Louis, but also possibly bc the act itself, the intimacy involved, is kind of tantalizing to think about ;]
There’s fic out there that Louis has occasionally modeled in the nude for Marius’ paintings ;}
Canon quote under the cut.
Marius re: Louis, when he’s consoling him that Lestat is still alive, in Queen of the Damned:
“He smiled at Louis. Something in the manner of this one made Marius happy, though he wasn’t sure why. He beckoned for Louis to come to him and they met at the foot of the table and walked together out of the room. Marius put his arm around Louis’s shoulder and they went down the iron stairs together, through the damp earth, Marius walking slowly and heavily, exactly like a human being might walk.
“ ‘And you’re sure of it?’ ” Louis asked respectfully.
Marius stopped. “ ‘Oh, yes, quite sure.’ ” They looked at one another for a moment, and again Marius smiled. This one was so gifted yet not gifted at the same time; he wondered if the human light would go out of Louis’s eyes if he ever gained more power, if he ever had, for instance, a little of the blood of Marius in his veins.
…Then he embraced Louis again warmly. Just a little blood, and Louis might be stronger, true, but then he might lose the human tenderness, the human wisdom that no one could give another; the gift of knowing others’ suffering with which Louis had probably been born.”
Fanart request from @i-want-my-iwtv
Lestat purposely letting a kid beat him in a Pokemon battle
¯_(ツ)_/¯
#request FILLED#i love this #cuteness alert
VC Pokemon Go headcanons
Here are some I received as per my request, added some pics and my comments in italics ;D
@riverofwhispers: Headcanon: Trinity Gate is a Gym location. And Benji currently has the highest ranking Pokemon and controls said Gym for Team Valor.
Awww! #headcanon accepted.
@we-called-it-our-conversation:
(1) Lestat has a Flareon [X] named Louis. He feeds it a lot of Pokémon candy and occasionally uses it to beat Armand’s gyms just so he can rub it in his face.
^You had to pick a fire type for Louis… lookit this cutie!!! #headcanon accepted.
(2) Armand has a Pokémon named after Lestat; it’s a Magikarp [X].
^This offends Lestat. Lestat is offended. Armand explained it thusly: “Well it’s the only pokemon with a mouth as proportionately large to its body as yours is-”
[^X by @feltstickers]
(3) Louis prefers not getting involved in this game.
^If that’s so, he’ll still be happy to wander around town w/ Lestat for hours on his hunts for Pokemon.
(1) HC that Armand actually fell in love with his starter, but got frustrated with how low level it was. he went out to look for other of the pokemon, but ended up being to attached to the original that he spent an entire week focusing on just that pokemon in particular and now its super overpowered compared to everything else he has.
Awwww!
#headcanon accepted.
(2) Hc that Louis actually really likes caterpie but is embarrassed about it. He thinks they are the cutest thing ever, and they are the main reason he wont let Lestat look at his phone.
Yes definitely! Louis likes several grass and water types, and he loves collecting fanart of them. The whole coven would tease him if they knew about it bc he should only like FIRE types right???
#headcanon accepted.
[^couldn’t find that caterpie’s original source but I am 99% sure it’s by ItsBirdyArt]
(3) HC that Lestat has a pokemon named after all of his friends.
Yep! And sends them into battle based on current vampire happenings.
#headcanon accepted.
(1) I could see Armand getting OBSESSED with the game.
^Armand loves videogames, it’s practically canon.
(2) Louis Could Not Care Less; Marius gets annoyed by it,
^Marius is probably annoyed by it bc it creates a lot of stopping in public walkways, and occasionally Old-Man-Shouting-at-Cloud Marius a little bit agrees w/ the “It’s terrible, the kids these days staring at their cellphones!” argument. #headcanon accepted.
(3) Lestat takes ENDLESS selfies of himself with various Pokemon, and for the first month or two, cheats by using vampire abilities to run to all the pokestops and be master of multiple gyms.
^OH THAT SNEAKY BASTARD. But I think he’d let the younger kids beat him in battles, and act all dramatic about it. “How could you do this so easily?? I am crushed! I will cry myself to sleep tonight!”
(4) Daniel occasionally forgets how unhuman he looks and accidentally scares kids sometimes. And adults.
^Yes, especially with how still vampires can be, a kid has bumped into him once or twice, thinking he was a mannequin. #headcanon accepted.
Send more if you like!
^Yours truly, Mater Fabuloso, unintentionally caught a pidgey by hand! Discussing the new Pokemon Go w/ @riverofwhispers, the following headcanons arose:
All these ppl up in the middle of the night going after imaginary pocket monsters… the coven finds it really sweet, that little kids and teens and adults can all do this positive thing together. Lestat watches for the potential threats tho, adults trying to lure a kid away from their family/friends. He won’t let that happen.
But also, Lestat wanted to try to play and Armand installed the app, he did it in such a way that Lestat could only catch one type and Lestat was getting all frustrated about it but then he figured it out and started getting into it.
TEAM PIDGEY!!
Lestat is all about pidgey. Lestat’s pidgey team kicks any of Armand’s collection.
Give me your VC Pokemon Go headcanons…
HEYYYYY MY DEAR I have a question. Do Louis and Lestat ever put makeup on eachother? And if they do, who prefers what style of makeup? (Like Lestat likes a winged eyeliner on Louis etc)
Yes, definitely! Lestat wears makeup often, typically at least guyliner (black or dark blue) and a lightweight (as in, not too “gluey”), organic lipgloss, with a rosy tint. Neither of them typically wear makeup that’s very scented or flavored, since they find those pretty chemically distasteful.
It’s canon that Lestat wears violet shades much of the time, which are not opaque, tinted just enough to diffuse a little of the dazzling effect of his eye color but allow the artistry of his makeup to be visible.
Louis will not put on makeup unless Lestat requests it, but does admit that it gives him an otherworldly quality. He prefers a light smokey eye and a hint of blush.
Despite his strenuous efforts to improve, Lestat is not as talented at drawing winged eyeliner, so whenever he wants that look he has to ask Louis to do it for him. Lestat also really enjoys playing w/ metallic powders [X]:
Sometimes Lestat will see a look in a work of art, magazine, or movie, and he wants to try it out on himself or Louis. He’s copied several of David Bowie’s looks. Some nights they both get all glamorous in order to better entice victims (murderous transphobic/homophobic bigots are a favorite dinner).
Louis’ first makeover was done by Claudia (fanart by @obsessional-ram!), and he resisted at first, but it was a battle he couldn’t hope to win as she pushed him down to her level and began applying foundation and eyeshadow primer. She went for an orchid-inspired look, w/ pastel shades and then deepened the contrast with his eyes with teal green and gold eyeshadow colors, a cool-toned smokey overlay, mascara, and warm lavender blush. A deep berry lip tint completed the look.
She also braided tiny light-colored flowers into his hair, and put him in one of the maid’s dresses.
When Lestat came out of the bath, where he had been for about an hour, he was struck by the enhancements and made some mumbled excuse as to why he needed Louis’ attention immediately… and privately. Claudia was very proud of herself for producing such a positive reaction, even though on the surface she kicked and complained at being thrown out of the house on an obviously unnecessary errand “Go get us more… ah… matches! From across town!”
The very next night, Lestat had her try out bold eyeshadows and powders on himself ;D
In canon, Lestat wears makeup at least for camouflage:
“I covered up my blue eyes, as always, with black glasses, lest their radiance mesmerize and entrance at random – a real nuisance – and over my delicate white hands, with their telltale glassy fingernails, I drew the usual pair of soft gray leather gloves.” – Tale of the Body Thief
“Ah, a bit of oily brown camouflage for the skin. I smoothed the lotion over my cheekbones, over the bit of neck and chest that was bare.” –
Tale of the Body Thief
I think Louis’ long hair is amazingly beautiful and it makes him look super sexy. Does he ever let you brush it Lestat?
♛*stretches out on the couch* How I’ve missed answering questions for you darlings. Been nearly a month. Louis and I have been off the grid.
We’re back now, for the time being. He’s sitting beside me now rolling his eyes at your comment, but I’m defending you! His hair is absolutely – positively – amazingly beautiful, although not as gorgeous as mine, of course. Mine is more of an experience than a simple physical material.
You know, now that I’m reflecting on it, his hair looks most sexy when it’s wet, either damp from the misty rain we get in New Orleans, or when it’s made almost liquid in some secluded pool rigged with lighting under the surface. He likes to swim under water, and when his head rises above the surface, the way his hair sweeps forward around his neck… it’s almost as if it moves under his command, as part of his own personal brand of witchcraft. Very sexy when it’s sticking in vein-shapes to his flesh from bloodsweat… *flicks at his fang* Now you’ve got me drooling. How embarrassing…
*Adjusts position, wipes at his chin, composes himself* Of course he lets me brush his hair! Louis prefers a wide-toothed comb or finger-combing. He dislikes the chemical fragrances of your usual modern haircare products, but every so often I earn the reward of sharing a steaming hot bath in which I am permitted to lather his hair up with organic shampoo and conditioner. Lately, he prefers these almond or mint scented.
I tend not to brush my hair often, as it separates the twists, but I do love to have it pulled when we are engaged in that special kind of heated debate… And fortunately for me, he loves to pull it.
