Wouldn’t Lestat be like, really bright and shiny in the mirror? I know he has to put on makeup to deal with light glare from photos, so I’m just kind of imagining him looking in the mirror and the light bouncing back and forth between him and the mirror so he just becomes this sparkly-ass bloodsucking disco ball of vanity. I highly suspect he has a room full of mirrors just for this occasion. Spends entire nights admiring his own brilliance from a variety of angles. Probably nude.

Some or all of that may in fact be true. Our fandom’s true OTP is Lestat/Mirrors.

As for the #vampire physiology aspect, I don’t think Lestat is THAT shiny. Without spoiling anything for you, I’ll tell you that his skin, at least in mid-canon, is not as marble-white as some other vampire flesh can be. Yeah, if he knows he’s going to be photographed (like for modeling!), he’d probly use a light spray tan to reduce the glare.

Vanity is definitely his fave sin. Gluttony would probably be a close second >;}

Antonio Banderas Wants You To Wear More Capes

Antonio Banderas is taking a break from acting to study fashion in London in the hopes of reviving capes as a fashion accessory.

View on Uproxx

Thank you Antonio Banderas

i-want-my-iwtv IM SORRY I HAD TO TAG YOU THIS IS TOO PERFECT 😂😂😂😂😂💖💖💖💖

Awww thanx, I did already see this and comment on it but I was being silly and hyperbolic when I added the “NO CAPES” gifs bc in truth I think it’s totally adorable, he’s totally adorable, and I want to buy a cape made by this man as soon as possible. I would wear it with an enormous amount of pride btw I will take mine with a white or pastel silk lining like these yes good.

Maven of the Eventide: Vampire Reviews: Interview with the Vampire

And now for something slightly different. If, by any chance, my fandom missed it, then my fandom may find it entertaining and informative. Maven did more of these vampire reviews. And she’s always insightful, eloquent, and very entertaining.

{Nothing serious, just an apologetic note. Apologetic, not actually apologizing.}

Just got back from my trip a few days ago, RL has been very consuming. I have a ton of messages in my inbox, thank u for keeping that lively in my absence! Responses will be made and queued. I try not to spam with responses, so if you’re waiting for yours, rest assured, it will be taken care of and queued ;]

So yeah, pardon the delay in reply, but RL comes first, as it should.

Why are vampires so cute?

It’s for giving you a false sense of security.

Honey, stop telling me I’m cute. I’m a creature of the night. I’m supposed to scare civilians. [X by takemetocoffin-or-losemeforever​]
