– Look at Claudia’s face. She looks like she JUST told them. It had to be said.
– Louis is all *shitshitshit how can i answer her without lying… “I’m only gay for Lestat…” No, that sounds weird… “We’re only gay sometimes…. like for 20 minutes at a time…” No, sometimes it lasts longer… so conflicted… If I wait long enough maybe Lestat will have a better answer.
– Lestat is just standing there growling, not sure if he should be offended or impressed that she figured it out despite his efforts to keep certain things behind closed doors.If I wait long enough maybe Louis will have a better answer.
This was a quickie done of Lestat from everyone’s favorite part of that movie. 🙂 I really need to rework this one, but I still want to fix it up and post a finished version.
“I assume I need no introduction.”
This is how you fanart. It doesn’t even need to be colored in. Such a well-captured expression.
@muirin007 this is still awesome. Reblogging this post from 2 yrs ago.
A custom Lestat doll head made by RedLorna [X] for a ball jointed doll customer, (who must have the body, bc there aren’t any pics of it that I can find). One of the best custom Lestat doll faces I’ve seen.
RedLorna:
“Photoshoot Yorick. Doll belongs fox-a . Thus. Minimi Tom Cruise as Lestat from “Interview with the Vampire.” My third mejk for minimization. The most difficult and most interesting to me.”
Ahhh… that is a tough one! They definitely like the fanart of themselves.
[^X Digging up an oldie from the archive which I have tidied up a little for ya and I would just like to mention that the above was screencapped from the ACTUAL TV screen so there is interlacing and whatever I don’t care it adds to the charm, oui/oui? but HEY it motivated me to improve my graphic skills for y’all and I DID]
The only writer that immediately comes to mind is our very own fandom treasure @gairid, who has a Through the 4th Wall, Darkly series which does something in the vein (pun intended hehehe) of what you’re looking for, feels meta. It’s mostly the characters discussing Lestat’s ghostwriter: “Really, Lestat, you need to have a talk with her. It’s getting out of hand. What sort of biographer makes everything up without the slightest regard to the truth?”*giggles*
Gonna open this up to the group and ask anyone to reblog or comment on this post if they know of fic that does this!
Cut for length.
There is another current writer I know of who does more of what you’re looking for on a regular basis BUT she doesn’t post publicly ;A; I will try to nudge her onto AO3 in your honor ;] To be honest, the interaction of the VC characters w/ fanfic of themselves is usually described as their being amused and/or creeped out, as most ppl who find out about RPF of themselves seem to be.
Lestat would be hella flattered and in fact…. he has written really shmoopy fluff of himself and Louis, which he has not-so-subtly tried to get Louis to read. Louis reads it and makes grammatical corrections and hands it back. Secretly, he’s very touched.
Louis loves the fanart but is mildly creeped out by the fandom’s fanfic of himself, partly bc he thinks the writers spend too much time glorifying his appearance, and/or he’s written out of character.
Louis: “Why do they all think I’m sunk in this, this deep depression all the time? I… do things… I go out.”
Lestat: “How much of the evening do you spend outside if I don’t drag you out?”
Louis: “Well, I have to go out to feed.”
Lestat: “And that takes, what, 30 or 40 minutes?”
Louis: “Yes, about.”
Lestat: “So you go out, on average, 35 minutes a night.”
Louis: “Depression is not defined by the lack of amount of time spent outside!”
From the fans who fell into VC since before my time, to the fresh blood (heh heh) who are just wading into it w/ us now, you’ve all made my tumblr experience so rich, I can’t even properly express how blown away I am on a daily basis how many of you send me such lovely messages and intriguing asks, and fanart, etc. and just… how, with your input, this blog has become the blog I wanted to find for all the years I searched for one. Thank you all for laying your affections w/ me over this pile of dysfunctional vampires!
So in the absence of a Follow Forever I’m doing a giveaway ^u^
I bought a few copies of VC books, and I will send them anywhere in the world as long as you have an address I can post snail mail to (and that you’re willing to share your address with me, of course!). The winners will be drawn randomly from ppl who reblog this post.
5 books up for winning: IWTV (gold hardcover), the Witching Hour (large paperback, it’s VC adjacent bc of the later crossover books), IWTV (paperback), TOBT (paperback w/ dual covers), Merrick (paperback). I may add a few more winnable things to this.
Winner also gets a personal handwritten message from me in the book or separately on a card. Winner specifies.
I will contact the winners here on tumblr, so keep your ask/chat open. If I cannot reach you in 48 hours, I will have to pick another winner :-
Only Reblogs will count as entries, and only one per blog counts.
No “giveaway” blogs can win.
I will not be able to disburse tracking for the mail, sorries, but you can send me $ for it via paypal.
This giveaway ends July 29, 2016.
Thank you for again for validating my presence in the fandom here, sharing fanworks, headcanons, the RPers. You’re all wonderful and I feel lucky to have you following me!
*~*~*~*~Merci beaucoup and bonne chance!~*~*~*~*
BC of my absence this week I couldn’t reblog this ;A; so I’m extending it a bit longer, and throwing in 3 IWTV DVDs! They’re US-formatted, so NTSC.
People have mentioned it her at least 3x on her page (1, 2, 3), and she hasn’t responded at all so… given her stance on things she doesn’t like (she ignores them) I would guess that she doesn’t like Kamijo 😛 otherwise she would have responded.
[X] Kamijo is a huge IWTV fan and an A+ cosplayer, tho! We can enjoy him ourselves without her blessing. ^_____^
