This year, however, Lestat and Louis failed to leave on time to meet up w/ the coven in Florida and they landed on a beach in Delaware, made passionate love under the boardwalk as fireworks went off. After that they walked up to the water’s edge, wrapped up together in a big cheap beach towel they’d found under the boardwalk bc their clothes were bloody and shredded to bits! No surprise there.
They watched the kids darting around and Louis was, as always, intrigued by the sparklers waving swoops and shapes of fractured light. One little girl approached them to compliment their Frozen towel and handed Louis a sparkler. He was very touched and forgot all about the gritty sand sticking to the blood across his chest and backside (under the towel, fortunately!).
Lestat watched the light of the sparkler reflected in Louis’ eyes, and for a moment, it was as if they were both just mortal boys, delighted by and in awe of this simple magic as Louis drew heart shapes, circles, and infinity loops against the darkness.
my amazing, beautiful & radiant girlfriend got me candles of how Louis and Lestat smell like, according to book descriptions, for Christmas help i’m goddamn cryin g
#ps louis smells v sweet #lestat just smells kinda like wet money
– Louis: Hates the big crowds that come with the festivity but love Christmas carols. Gives hand-maid gifts, usually knitted stuff. Watches the same Christmas movies every year and knows them by heart.
– Armand: “The true meaning is about Jesus and we are all sinners for making it about presents”. He puts a Nativity in his house instead of a tree because the tree is a pagan tradition.
– Lestat: Always exceeds the money limit in secret santa and makes sure everybody knows the expensive gift is from him. Thinks that the more money you spend the more you show you care.
– Pandora: Thinks that what is celebrated is Santa’s birthday, she has belived that for so long that now it would be too awkward to correct her so everyone rolls with it when they talk to her.
– Gabrielle: Doesn’t care about Christmas at all. Presents from her are always gift-cards. Spends the Christmas party petting the dog and avoids to socialize as much as she can.
– Marius: Starts puting the decorations the day after Halloween and goes way over the top, with huge plastic Santa in his sleigh in the roof of the house included. Waits under the mistletoe on purpose to make people kiss him.
– Daniel: Always gets super drunk in the Christmas gathering. Every year he forgets to get the present until last minute and buys it in the gas station nearby, gives it to the other person unwrapped.
Thank you for all the work you do for this fandom. You’re one of the reasons I got into it properly. Bernadette, Happy Christmas xxx
Omg, I love this! Look at this happy vampire family in the snow awww 😍 I love their expressions, and the color scheme you chose has such a dreamy quality.
You’re so welcome, I do what I do bc when I was starting out, I couldn’t find the VC fandom, it was mostly in hiding then… I’m glad you were inspired to get involved here bc of my blog! *hugs* ✨❤️✨
Hello all, thank you to all the Santas who submitted their gifts!
We have a few outstanding gifts still, sorry if you haven’t received yours yet. We will try to get those gifts delivered ASAP!
(If you volunteered to do an extra gift, we may be reaching out to you to ask you to sub in for a flake Santa)(Apologies again to those who didn’t receive gifts, we sent plenty of reminders, and VC Santas are still human, not actually the real Santa, who wouldn’t dare to be so naughty!)
Some Vampire Chronicles doodles because I continued reading the books where I left it, and I needed doodle some of my favorite characters: Armand, Louis and Claudia. Also Lestat and Marius ♥
♛Well if it were up to him, he’d wrap gifts in brown paper or newsprint and twine, as he likes to recycle. What a waste of an opportunity to add a little flair! His gifts are always perfectly chosen, and I suppose it’s what’s inside that really counts, with gift-giving.
… but if you must know, I prefer it when he’s unwrapping~me~.
