This is Velvet Rose Side A, a doujinshi. I’m sharing bc I want some more! VC fandom of tumblr, FIND IT. Surely with our powers combined we can become Captain Planet *ahem* find more of this.
Here’s a sequel to it, but surely it’s available scanned somewhere already… I know $20 is not much, I just don’t buy from sites I’ve never heard of :-
So I was there just DAYS ago and shall be posting pics soon, this is actually the view from the “back alley,” and right here in front of the shrubs was where Pointe du Lac kept the chickens, apparently.
You can just make out the silhouette of the alarm bell on the left of the porch, in this screencap, which probably would’ve been sounded at all this fire activity.
I’ll be away for a long wknd in New Orleans, first real visit! I’ll probably still be reblogging until my damn flight but whatev…
So in my absence, browse my fanart collection, bc damn, I have collected some GREAT VC fanart. Also my memeythings. I have lots of old ones that are worth digging up 😉
I was in NOLA once before, when I was 15 and my family was considering moving there, so I didn’t get to do much. It was before Katrina hit. Vague memories of the gorgeous townhouses that looked like little jewelry boxes along St. Charles, and the houses we considered living in were in Metairie. They were high-ceilinged, very romantic, with beds so big they had little step stools. Oddly, the master bedrooms tended to be on the 1st floor just off the main entrance, but the kids’ quarters were on the second floor. Hmmm.
I think each character in the series would have their own version of this. Like a “How to Vampire” book by Gabrielle would be about living it up in the jungle and a version by Louis would explain how to be incredibly emo and the best ways to burn stuff, etc, etc.
