“But Lestat, he deceived it. Did you see how he smacked my hand..”
Lestat’s all #WELP #What’s done is done #she’s sorry #lookit those puppy eyes #I’ll just finish up her lesson #that dude was overpriced #and #I know this shit better than anyone anyway
Y’know I don’t know exactly what was going on but she was in some kind of fabulous ecstasy to not try to stop him notice him basically biting her tongue and sucking on it… Supposedly Louis can Spellbind ppl w/o consciously trying, this is one of his Gifts.
…but also Lestat is doing most of the “work” for him in this scene, she’s probably reacting to that more.
I don’t think there are any major arteries in the mouth that he could have hit, so it’s just, IDK, tongue blood. And he is spilling some. Seems like alot of effort and not much dinner for him. When we see her mouth again, her lips look a little bloody but not damaged, so he was either biting her tongue or the inside of her mouth somewheres. #kinda ew
Ever bite your tongue hard?
I have! And when I had braces (yes I had braces TOTES WORTH IT) the brackets gashed to insides of my mouth. Alot. Wounds closed and then tore afresh. It hurt. I still have scars inside (TOTES WORTH IT).
Anyway my point stands: she must like the treatment she’s getting if she’s this into it.
i-want-my-iwtv your blog is the reason I started reading the vampire chronicles. The fact that you just followed me made my day.
Awww! #ANOTHER CONVERSION #ANOTHER SOUL CLAIMED IN THE NAME OF OUR FANDOM. #I love these kind of stories. Bwahahahaaaa…
Post your thoughts as you go. As much as we love this series, one can never recapture the things we felt/thought the first time thru, the feel of something new. Hopefully we haven’t spoiled you too badly.
Your URL implies that the spoilage is already deep… well. What is a “slut” but a sensualist? Someone with a lust for life! That’s our Lestat alright.
Ooooh #Vampire physiology (sending the vampire bat signal out to fellow Ricean vampire authority vampchronfic and for the non-Ricean vampires, askavampirologist).
In short, they can handle much colder temps than mortals can. Their default temperature is cold, and it seems like they prefer to be warm, since they’re only really hot right after a fresh feeding >;}
Louis has mentioned in canon that he dislikes the cold but he insists on wearing threadbare sweaters, it seems to be a form of self-punishment (and murder-husband-punishment since he knows Lestat doesn’t approve of the constant 90’s grunge/Derelicte look).
It’s not discussed in canon in huge detail, and I’m sure it varies vampire-to-vampire, so I’ll just give you Louis and Lestat answers.
In IWTV Louis would wander around, “standing in the rain like a zombie until your clothes are drenched and you smell like old wardrobe trunks in attics and have the look of a baffled idiot at the zoo.” This was probably warm rain, being NOLA. He might have been so transfixed with his new senses that he didn’t mind what might be uncomfortable for us/other vampires. Lestat certainly didn’t approve bc like “i buy you such beautiful outfits and you put them on WIRE HANGERS *ahem* no, actually, you go ruining them in the RAAAAAINNN.” *sulk*
When Lestat flies, he doesn’t mention needing to get extra bundled-up to deal with the colder air altho i like the idea of him looking for the BIGGEST WARMEST FUR-LINED PARKAS so that when he takes to the air w/ Louis, he can cocoon them together bc awwwww…-
They seemed to enjoy the humidity and heat of NOLA. I imagine that they’re like big cats or lizards, always looking for warm spots to lounge around in to deal with their default coldness. Lestat’s always been a big fan of lighting all the candles in a room for the light, which might also be for the warmth; even one candle adds a surprising amount of heat.
Of course Louis, the pyromaniac, is really in an OTP with Fire, that should tell you smtg about the kinda temperature he prefers! ❤
Uh, yeah, like, does it get any better than this??:
“All right, listen to me! We are going out.
But we shall do it like proper vampires, do you hear!
There are one thousand people in the church and we are going to scare them to death.I will lift the stone and we will rise up together, and when we do, raise your arms and make the most horrible face you can muster and cry out if you can. That will make them fall back, instead of pouncing upon us and dragging us off to prison, and then we’ll rush to the door.“
