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 >;}

@i-want-my-iwtv  I keep forgetting that Lestat is half Italian as well as being half French and just…how much more of a stereotypical fop could he be? XP

every time I see this I want to say “hey Italians aren’t THAT vain” but then I think about all the men in my family and I’m like “yeah, yeah that’s totally true”

IKR? I keep forgetting he’s half-Italian too! Pretty much the best of both worlds with the ~fopness.~ Lestat/Mirrors is our REAL fandom OTP.

I want a story about an Italian vampire.

No romance, no action.

Just 200 pages of “What do you mean, I can’t have garlic? Do you know where I’m from?”

TBH I think the main issue would be the mirror thing

have you ever met an Italian man

the amount of time they spend looking in the mirror jfc

#the more you think about it the more all vampire rules are just anti-italian rules#can’t go out in sunlight?? IN ITALY???#Can’t go near crucifixes? IN ITALY???
