Lestat – Fashion Emergency by Bisho-

[X]

(Transcribed under the cut)

Prince Lestat is thinking of writing a guide to etiquette and clothes for for gentleman and lady vampires. He’s disgusted with all the poorly dressed vampires he’s seen on TV, and sick to death of seeing them spill blood all over themselves. The well dressed gentleman or lady vampire never spills a drop of blood on anyone anywhere. And clothes are always a statement, whether we intend it or not — or so he says. Of course he’s pondering the etiquette of the “little drink,” and when to spellbind. He’s taking notes, gathering his thoughts for his guide. I’ll have an update soon.

What did you think about Crimson Peak? Asking because of a post I saw

Leave a comment

I really enjoyed it but haven’t felt the need to really discuss it in depth. Aesthetically great. Acting was great. The story was… I’m really at a loss for how to describe it but just thinking about it gives me chills! Good scary movie chills 😉 I have some thoughts scattered in my #crimson peak tag, along with fanart for it. 

I fully agree with what @annabellioncourt had said about it to me before I saw it:

YOU’RE GONNA LOVE CRIMSON PEAK ITS RIDICULOUS AND DARING, AND ITS FUCKED UP ENOUGH FOR ANNE RICE TO HAVE WRITTEN IT.

Aaaaand if that’s not endorsement enough, I felt like taking notes when I watched it so I could make: Lestat watches “Crimson Peak” here’s a snippet *SPOILERS*:

  • My lover’s sister tried to kill me, too. Hurts, doesn’t it????!!!
  • The dog is dying! Now I’m actually upset.
  • “You’re monsters, both of you!” Where have I heard that before? Now this is hitting too close to home. I’M NOT CRYING YOU’RE CRYING KEEP TAKING NOTES.
  • You stabbed him iN THE FACE. IN THE FACE!! Rude. What about the groundrules? Rule number 1: No touching of the hair or face… AND THAT’S IT!

  • ♛Ooooh I love a packed theatre! THE EXCITEMENT IS MORE PALPABLE THAN THE REEK OF POPPED CORN AND THIS SLUDGE PEOPLE CURRENTLY CALL CHEESE.

  • [Trailer for Krampus] The audience is all laughing at this horror trailer, I don’t think we’re supposed to be laughing, I think it’s meant to be terrifying but it’s too funny to be scary! 10/10 would watch this trailer again, take note.

  • [Trailer for the new Frankenstein movie] I’ve created a monster or two in my time, too, DON’T JUDGE PPL FOR MAKING A MONSTER NOW AND THEN *frowns* We have our reasons. Write that down.
  • He says it needs a love story? MINE IS A LOVE STORY. ALL MY STORIES ARE LOVE STORIES. WHY AREN’T THEY MAKING ANOTHER MOVIE FROM MY BOOKS GDI?
  • “What I saw was a dreamer facing defeat.” WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS RAIN ON MY PARADE TOO? I know that feel, Mr. Sharpe. We are the music makers… and we are the dreamers of dreams.
  • This girl and I would get along perfectly – laying in bed with good books, luxuriously wrapped in yellow velvet, awww yissss that is a well-spent evening.

  • I CAN DEMO THE WALTZ EUROPEAN STYLE LOUIS GET IN HERE (but maybe not holding a candle, Louis can’t always be trusted around candles and ME AT THE SAME DAMN TIME)

  • We should’ve let Claudia have a dog. Maybe a Papillon.
  • Charlie Hunnam

  • Yes let’s go to the POST OFFICE GREAT IDEA FOR A FUN EXCURSION like, wtf? the POST OFFICE IS NOT A FIELD TRIP WORTH DOING. Oh wait, I seem to recall my own fledglings going to the post office JUST TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE AND AWAY FROM ME OCCASIONALLY I AM OFFENDED THAT OFFENDS ME.

  • Seeing your lover with someone else hurts, doesn’t it????!!!
  • Hoe don’t do it! 
  • She did it. Because how could she not?

  • My lover’s sister tried to kill me, too. Hurts, doesn’t it????!!!
  • The dog is dying! Now I’m actually upset.
  • “You’re monsters, both of you!” Where have I heard that before? Now this is hitting too close to home. I’M NOT CRYING YOU’RE CRYING KEEP TAKING NOTES.
  •  You stabbed him iN THE FACE. IN THE FACE!! Rude. What about the groundrules? 

    Rule number 1: No touching of the hair or face… AND THAT’S IT!

  • We were ALL LAUGHING AS THOMAS PULLED THE KNIFE OUT. Should we not have been laughing? We are a terribly cruel audience.
  • Hissing, incidentally, is an excellent way to stun an opponent in a fight.
  • “I heard you the first time.” I’M USING THAT.

SO WE (by “we” I mean Lestat and I, hehehe)(or maybe the royal “we”) SAW CRIMSON PEAK AND WE HAVE THOUGHTS ABOUT IT. He had more humorous thoughts than I did. Worthy thoughts shall be transcribed and posted tonight, hopefully.

And as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it. So that’s one thing we got.
