Interview with the Vampire (book) Sentence Starters
I’m in a mood, so here’s another sentence meme.
“Evil is always possible.”
“The world chances, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.”
“Evil is a point of view.”
“God kills, and so shall we.”
“The only power that exists is inside ourselves.”
“Goodness is eternally difficult.”
“And sometimes i found myself so vividly aware of him it was as if he had only just left the room and the ring of his voice were still there.”
“Whether a man would die tomorrow or the day after or eventually… it doesn’t matter.”
“I knew I was home.”
“I walked the streets.”
“Do you know what it means to be loved by Death?”
“Do you know what it means to have Death know your name?”
“Don’t you see?”
“I’m at odds with everything and always have been!”
“I have never belonged anywhere with anyone at any time!”
“I love you still, that’s the torment of it.”
“The measure of my hatred is that love.”
“Do you know now how much I hate you?”
“Don’t be a fool for the Devil, darling.”
“You see that old woman?”
“You will never grow old, and you will never die.”
“I shall never ever grow up.”
“Let the flesh instruct the mind.”
“A starving child is a frightful sight.”
“I want you. I want you more than anything in the world.”
“Mortal beauty often makes me ache.”
“That is the crowning evil, that we can even go so far as to love each other, you and I.”
“Who else, knowing us as we know each other, could do anything but destroy us?”
“I look like an angel, but I’m not.”
“We’re beautiful like the diamond-backed snake, or the striped tiger, yet we’re merciless killers.”
“You know nothing.”
“And we must live with the knowledge that there is no knowledge.”
“But I can’t hate you, my love.”
“Now it’s time to leave him.”
“What does it mean to die when you can live until the end of the world?”
“I wanted love and goodness.”
“It was my death.”
“I saw my last sunrise.”
“And then I said farewell to sunlight, and set out to become what I became.”
“You haven’t tears enough for what you’ve done to me.”
“I might have known what it was to walk at your side.”
“Aren’t there gradations of evil?”
“Is evil a great perilous gulf into which one falls with the first sin, plummeting to the depth?”
“I never changed after that.”
“I was satisfied. I was filled to the brim. But I was dead. And I was changeless.”
“You are the night, and the night alone understands you and enfolds you in its arms.”
“How could you believe in these old fantastical lies, these myths, these emblems of the supernatural?”
“My power would be your power.”
“I have the dreadful feeling that I don’t exist at all.”
“I shudder when I’m near you.”
“You cannot pass back to the world of human warmth with your new eyes.”
“Not a wild, mortal fear, but something cold like a hook in my side.”
“I wish I could.”
“You reflect your age differently. You reflect its broken heart.”
“Killing is no ordinary act.”
“Only the doll had a human face, only the doll.”
“Well, I tell you I am no longer that passive, weak creature that has spun evil from evil until the web is vast and thick while I remain its stultified victim.”
“It’s over!”
Was the grape scene in the movie scripted?
As far as I know, after 400 years, 21 years of torturing myself with this trash i love, that scene was unscripted, but it was probably storyboarded!

Although I don’t have them for this scene, I’ve found a few storyboards by Martin Asbury for this movie. Someone needs to pry it from him!!!
I did check, this scene is not in the April ‘92 script, but much of that script changed. Someone out there must have a more recent script… There are several that were written after the movie came out, those are transcriptions of what was released in the final cut, not the last shooting script.
Adult versions of Claudia’s dress are available on Etsy! For a bazillion dollars but it’s worth every penny #i want this bc of reasons
thank you! I had a feeling telling you would be a good idea since your blog is chockful of vc goodness
You’re so welcome!

That’s the original purpose -and still a major one- of my blog: to be a collection of inspiration to the fanartists in making more yummy fanworks to feeeeed the VC addiction of all of us adorable fanged little trash kittens ❤
Did they look like psychos? Is that what they looked like? They were vampires. Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits them, I don’t give a fuck how crazy they are! (From Dusk Till Dawn, 1996)
#from dusk till dawn#dude they do not show a vampire playing with their fangs often enough cinematically#bc that is the first damn thing i would do#EVERY NIGHT#play with or touch fangs#bc they are mega awesome okay#repeatedly bite own lip to scare ppl#YES#this is how I would vampire#yes I would like to vampire plz#how to vampire#not VC#VC adjacent
#SERIOUSLY I DON’T HEAR ABOUT JUST HAVING FANGS ENOUGH #I mean those two idiots in iwtv took every chance to show their fangs with a stretched grin or open mouthed laugh but to actually play with #their fangs like a nervous tick #especially newbie vamps #because just learning how to talk again without biting off your tongue after getting those things #like that would take a couple days at least

YES ALL THAT #AUGH #THIS IS ALL WE GET IN TERMS OF A VAMPIRE PLAYING WITH HIS FANGS IT IS NOT NEARLY ENOUGH #but praise him for doing it I bet it was not in the script #ACTING #PROFESSIONAL ACTING
I have a non vc related question, sort of: You make a lot of reaction gifs and I see that you put your url name on them – BUT, just to check, is it okay to use your gifs as reaction images in posts/asks, and if yes should I credit you in my post/tags? I just want to be respectful since I know making these gifs takes work! Thanks in advance for your answer. =)
Sure, go right ahead and use whatever you like!

I put my url on them knowing that they’d be downloaded and reposted, it’s a way to keep the source intact ;] tho if u notice I don’t add it on some that I think either push the envelope of offensiveness too far or I feel like I didn’t really add enough to claim them as “mine.”
But yes, it would be gr9 if you tag me when you use them, just add a little [i-want-my-iwtv] below them, bc then I’ll see it in my activity feed, and can see it in your post. It’s really fun to see these things in different contexts. A tag would be nice, too, as #iwantmyiwtv or #i-want-my-iwtv.
Obviously, it would be best if people who want to use my works use them as reaction gifs only, and not simply repost on a new post… but I can’t stop that from happening, so I can’t really get upset if it happens. It means too much to me to be able to share these things freely, so it’s a risk I’m willing to take. I’m sure it’s happened already *shrugs*
When did you first come across a copy of IwtV? What did you think of it?
I’ve probably read it before Lestat got his hands on it, which is quite amusing when you think about it. It must have been a few years after publication, because I found it in one of the secondhand bookshops that I grew quite fond of. I was looking for some old editions of my favourite classics when a shabby paperback copy inevitably caught my eye – the word “Vampire” shining with bloody letters.
Don’t think I was startled by it, no, by all means no. The stories about vampires were quite popular since late 19th century and most of the time they got everything wrong about us, therefore I saw no danger in them. But out of curiosity I picked it up and after reading the first two pages I decided to buy it. It seemed to be something different.
The nameless vampire and nameless reporter boy. How could I possibly foresee that in a few years I will meet both of them and that the latter will become a fledging of my fledging and now my companion? But I digress.
You can imagine, my friend, that as soon as Lestat’s name appeared on the page I suddenly saw the book for what it was. A very real memoir disguised as popular fiction and very well protected by the modern attitude towards mythical creatures. From this point I drunk every word greedily, looking for other names, for secrets I feared to be revealed. I was both astonished and disappointed.
To see how well concealed Lestat kept the knowledge I shared with him was both comforting and painful. To see how he disregarded my advice and made a mistake of turning a child so young…! I found it outrageous. To see Armand, my dear Amadeo, described by Louis, to see him every bit as charming and tempting as he used to be, and yet so entirely different… It broke my heart. To see my dear Lestat treated so cruelly and suffering so awfully… Oh, reading this book was an absolutely infuriating experience.
But not quite as infuriating as reading Lestat’s novel, I must say.
He started it. I had to set the record straight.
