I love your blog and something happened that got me thinking of VC and I don’t have anyone IRL to talk to about VC. Hope you dont mind. Anyway, I saw trans Siberian orchestra last week. When I saw one or the singers Dino Jelusić he immediately reminded me of Louis in looks. Like insanely so, but the way he held himself on stage reminded me if lestat. So the whole show Im sitting there watching what looked to be the child of those two idiots and it me incredibly happy and I wanted to share it.

Awww thank you, love for the blergh is always appreciated

❤❤❤

I’m sorry you don’t have IRL VC ppl to talk to… There’s a VC discord chat you might be interested in, go to @firelight-fading or @monstersinthecosmos about that 😉

Casual VC-resemblance discussion is welcome here, and even better when it appears to be the offspring of one or more than one of the characters, especially one of your ships. AR was inspired by various ppl in her life, created these characters (some of these characters were created 40 yrs ago and may have outlived their inspirations by now :-O ), and we see her characters come to life in real ppl around us who behave or appear similarly… it’s a kind of immortality.

I had a boss who told me that he was the inspiration for a beloved Pixar character. That character is going to outlive him, and fans of that character might see his mannerisms/character in ppl that they know, or they may take elements from that character as inspiration for their own OCs, so in a way, my former boss has been immortalized, even though no one knows his name. You can be namelessly immortalized. We have ancient fandom memes and we have no idea who made them (urls go abandoned, but also, there was so much fear about claiming your own VC works for so long), but we know them. Like this classic (OP of that gif was not the creator, to my knowledge).


So, ok, Dino Jelusić: I’d never heard of this person before, I see what you’re saying re: his voice/attitude for Lestat. And you’re right, he has the broody brunette look to him (also his hair looks REALLY silky soft A+++ haircare, whatever he’s doing), although canon!Louis has wavy/curly hair.

This is a younger Dino on the left, and more current on the right, I think. 

The Lestat vibe is there, CLOSE YOUR EYES AND LISTEN TO THIS DUDE:

Pretty sure he likes 80′s rock, I’m getting some Bon Jovi and Axl Rose in

Dino, for sure ;D 

I’d consider auditioning him do the vocals for Lestat’s music in the VC TV series, just sayin’.
