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

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)

The five types of canon.

Canon: What actually happened.

Headcanon: What you think happened, based on the characters, settings, storylines and all reasonable extrapolations thereof.

Heartcanon: What you feel ought to have happened, quite divorced from rationality or sense.

Soulcanon: What you know happened, deep down in your soul, regardless of what anyone says. Including the creators of canon, themselves.

Crotchcanon: What your gonads wish had happened, or, alternatively, what turns you on.

Oh my goodness.

They forgot fanon which seems to be confused these days with canon…

So, what is “fanon” then?

//Fanon is stuff not in canon but that’s so prevalent in fandom that people have largely forgotten it’s not in the source material, ie, Daniel Molloy wearing glasses (which is Movieverse Canon, but literally never happens in the books). It’s headcanons that are extremely common or permeate the fandom so deeply it’s hard to separate them from canon, even if they never actually appear in the main material. (I think.. maybe someone else can explain it better.)

“The book never said it /didn’t/ happen” i say as I rub my little fangirl hands together.

That last post (that I’ve been DYING to know Auntie Jilli’s reaction to for a while now) has me wondering: do you and her have any good Interview with a Vampire drinking games?

Hm. I don’t drink recreationally – drinking games aren’t My Bag, Baby™. And the StuntWife doesn’t drink THAT much more than I do.

But the I could make one up on the spot!

Drink when Louis looks like he’s asking God “WHY ME”

Drink when Lestat looks insufferable

Drink when Lestat gets mad FOR REASONS

Drink when someone looks at Louis with smouldering eyes

Drink whenever Claudia is the Designated Adult

^Those are good! Might I add?

  • Drink whenever Louis refuses to do so.
  • Drink whenever Louis is shown on his back. (THERE ARE SO MANY TIMES)
  • Drink whenever anyone touches Louis’s hair.
  • Re: Lestat getting mad, specifically: Drink whenever Lestat goes from Calm to ROYALLY Pissed in 0.5 seconds.
  • Drink whenever Louis sets something on fire. 
  • One shot for every Dark Gift scene.
  • Drink for every on-screen dead body that Claudia is responsible for (not the whole family scene tho!).
  • Drink whenever Louis smiles (it’s rare, but it happens).

But what about vampire history teachers. Vampires who read something from a text book then proceed to light the book on fire and throw it out the window because “No. that’s not even close to what really happened. Listen up nerds I’m about to teach you what really happened in France during the revolution”

I need this as a series

Vampires sharing the recipe for Greek fire.

Vampires speaking in dead languages.

Vampires being able to translate untranslatable scripts.

Vampires who react to straightwashing historical figures like “Are you kidding me everyone knew that man was queer!”

Vampires from cultures who were once antagonistic towards each other stubbornly maintaining a friendship that’s lasted longer than their civilizations.

Vampires who honour forgotten deities you won’t find in mythology books.

Also, vampires who secretly saved stuff from the Library of Alexandra.

Guys, this is the Vampire Chronicles.

The increasingly desperate struggle of the VC fandom to tell Tumblr that THE THING YOU ARE DESCRIBING HAS EXISTED FOR FORTY YEARS

A-fucking-men.

what about like. a vampire who is just this weird immortal relative. like maybe at one point they were a parent, and were turned into a vampire, and in stead of like abandoning their family out of guilt or fear, they stuck around through generations and generations in their family and its been hundreds of years and they still stick around and have this huge extended family of people who love them, that weird distant relative who like nobody is sure how they’re related but they are

like a child in their family is born and the mom is like, this is your weird relative who is nocturnal, and the vampire gets to hold the baby and is in all the family photos and everyone is like ‘yeah this is fine, my grandpa knew them so’

This just makes me think of the sims.

This is the perfect position for the maiden aunt who grows her own food and is vaguely into witchcraft that we all have

Like imagine a kid being raised with an “Aunt Mel” and just assuming she’s their mother’s sister but when they’re a teenager their mum is like “oh no she’s actually my aunt, she’s your grandad’s sister” and eventually the kid asks their grandad and he’s like “I’m pretty sure she’s my aunt. Or my great-aunt? She might be some kind of family friend, anyway.”

“Pa she looks 30 years old”

“She always has, we just kind of go with it”
