Another typical evening at the Rue Royale.
I will never ever be able to watch this scene without thinking about this gifset and I think you should know I love you for it, but also hate you a bit.

#How to make a post a VC post #well done
Is it possible that they like recycle the jewels from the old lady with the poodles and gave them to Claudia during the ball scene? They look so similar!
Good eye! It’s not exactly the same, but very similar.
It’s worth mentioning that Claudia and that widow have some things in common:
- wearing yellow.
- blonde (well the poodle lady probably dyes it, but it counts).
- they both seem to be pretty in love with Louis
who isn’t? -
Louis almost kills them.
In the book, the dress Claudia dies in is actually yellow silk *cries* And in the book, Lestat would occasionally bring Claudia jewelry from his victims bc he’s all about not letting things go to waste 😉
How about this, though: Louis wears the same two rings for his ENTIRE AFTERLIFE.
paperworkninja reblogged your post and added:
So wait, I can come back? I can finally come back to my fandom and contribute fan works?! I was also around during the fanfiction purge, knew authors who were slapped with orders from Anne’s lawyers and helped hide secret archives of VC fic so this? This has made my day!
Yes! Welcome back to the party *u* It seems that Certain People are content to live and let live re: fanworks.
(But we are rational about it, we only post to sites like AO3 publicly; we still keep some things as They Must Be Kept, just in case…)
Dear Mater Fabuloso! Are you the infamous Fanfiction Writer Burnadette? If this is so, my Friend Diana Elisabeth Raum asked me to say thank you for posting her work yesterday and I should tell you that she really really loves your fanfictions! And I love them, too! Thank you for all the great stories from you from both of us. Many greetings from Germany!
YES thank u so much! I am the infamous Fanfiction Writer Burnadette (on AO3, shameless self-promotion). What a lovely compliment all the way from Germany! *flails*
more fic to come, if I can kick myself into doing it, and messages like these are definitely encouraging!
I have to turn this into a little appreciation post to Lady Diana Elisabeth Raum, because I’ve been meaning to do so: I LOOOOOOVE your fanart. LOVE.
We are going to need to see all of your VC fanart. ALL ♥u♥
Start a tumblr or let @sam-biteback post it. Because your Lestat/Louis piece is one of my absolute favorites of them (and we need this in better scan quality so we can see the details better):
Louis: “What have you done this time, Lestat?”
Lestat: “Shhhh, Louis, let’s enjoy the silence of your not knowing… for a few more minutes.”
Louis: *siiigh*
And your illustration of Lestat on your Prince Lestat cover was wayyy better than what we got in the US or UK.
This male model… um… No. I know he’s trying but NO. And in the US all we got was a glossy font! NO illustration at all!
Lestat and Louis by Diana Elisabeth Raum
Oh! Perfection!
These colourful flames are awesome! Mixing different compounds with flammable substances causes the different colours… just don’t try this at home.
Lighting things on fire to see what color they burn was by far one of my favorite things in science class
I read a while ago about some scenes filmed in IWTV but not ending out in the final cut as we all saw it. Is there any chance under the moon and stars for us to see these scenes? In the anniversary blu-ray, I’ve heard there is a new documentary but no news on deleted/extended scenes from the movie on this blu-ray.
It is criminal that we don’t have the cut/extended scenes or new features after TWENTY (20) YEARS. Fortunately, Neil Jordan is very aware that we want these and hopefully he’ll do smtg about it.
Officially, as far as I know, there are no cut/extended scenes on any edition of IWTV *cries forever,* but allegedly there’s a new vid on the 20th Anniversary Blu-Ray: “Lestat, Louis, and the Vampire Phenomenon: A conversation with author Anne Rice about her influence on the new wave of vampires as heroes and anti-heroes.” but that isn’t a cut scene so like whatever idec.
AS FOR CUT SCENES, OUTTAKES, ALTERNATE SHOTS, BLOOPERS, ETC., ALL WE HAVE ARE SCRAPS FROM THE TRAILER LIKE THIS ONE:
^YES LOUIS I KNOW I FEEL YOUR PAIN RE: THE CUT SCENES.
We know there were other scenes in the script (do the google, it’s easy to find, and very entertaining!), at least one of which was storyboarded partially.
I console myself w/ production stills and behind the scenes gems that I find *still cries forever* but SOMEONE OUT THERE HAS THAT FOOTAGE. (Guessing it’s Mick Audsley & Joke van Wijk, the editors).
I haven’t read Prince Lestat yet, but yesterday, browsing the web, I found out about Viktor. I’m very curious to know his story because I understood something but in the network there is not much about him… Can you help me understand who is he?
You probably wanted a REAL answer, but I don’t want to spoil ya. Hit the jump for spoilation.
(For headcanons and to talk to a Viktor RPer, go to @viktor-de-lioncourt (who uses Jordan Sörbom as a FC) or @roselioncourt, both of whom care quite a lot more than I do about this character.)
Viktor is Lestat’s biological son, created during the course of Prince Lestat. In the mid-90s (I think?) Lestat had encountered some vampire doctor/scientists (they are vampires trained in and interested in the study of vampirism, running a lab just for that) and they *ahem* collect a biological sample from Lestat, with his full compliance.
HOWEVER, without his consent or knowledge, they use his sample to make baby Viktor! Baby Viktor has a mortal mother, so presumably, the DNA needed a little tinkering to make it work; Viktor is considered partially a clone, and in appearance he seems to be a carbon copy of Lestat (slightly taller, IIRC).
Lestat doesn’t know he fathered him until Viktor is no longer a baby (he’s at least 20?) and is used as a pawn in the shaking up of the vampiric matriarchy, so to speak. Father and son get reunited, everybody’s happy.
It’s unclear whether Lestat is also Viktor’s vampiric maker, he had asked Marius to be involved, and we might get more specifics in the next VC, Blood Paradise.
Louis is always Lestat’s fave, tho! We all know that.
