Marius?
IT DOES LOOK LIKE MARIUS AND ARMAND awwwww ❤
There’s something I’ve been meaning to talk about for a while, but for some reason I always push it aside.
But basically, you know the whipping scene in the vampire Armand? Marius acts all disgusted at what happens (you know, the thing) but really he was turned at forty, I’m sure he understands how the human body works….so what the fuck did he expect to happen?
Did he fucking expect It to be like “pull this for free sweets!” Fucking no.// I think it had more to do with what came after it.
Young men and boys experience sexual pleasure and even feel orgasm before they can actually ejaculate. It’s what Armand referred to when he spoke of “wet pleasure.” As in that he was too young for wet pleasure. I think that refers to ejaculation.
When Armand had his orgasm after the whipping scene, he ejaculated. That was perhaps the first time it had happened with Marius. Marius realized when he looked at it that Armand was becoming a man, and soon he – Marius – would have to make a hard decision.
At least, that was how I interpreted the scene.
Marius de Romanus

ooc: btw this is p random but i felt the need to voice my opinion so if you’re not interested feel free to ignore it!!
See, I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about Marius’ personality, not only here, but among good part of VC fans who I’ve came across in the past regarding his book Blood and Gold. I would like to point some things that I find important and that maybe would help you to have a second thought about it.
When I read Blood and Gold for the first time, I felt a slight emptiness, and that familiar feeling of disappointment in the pit of my stomach after knowing closely some of his choices and attitudes – and more than that; his true persona, after all. But after a while thinking about it, I realized that no matter how wrong he was by some of his choices, each one of them made who he truly is: selfish, yes, but compassionate, an artist, melancholic, and undoubtedly proud, but good and gentle at heart.
He is far from being perfect even though we enjoyed to believe that he was due to numerous descriptions we had of him in TVA, TVL, QOTD and Pandora. But he isn’t. He commits mistakes as everyone else, and if we were to compare him to Louis, Lestat and Armand, for example, judging by all the years that Marius is alive, I honestly don’t think his mistakes were so numerous. Some of them were intense, and most of them regrettable, yes, but I do not think that makes him a “bad character” or that he is any less of what Lestat, Pandora, Armand, etc, describe in their respective books.
Only because he was described by many as a “sage”, a “philosopher”, etc, it doesn’t change the fact that before he was turned, he was also a human. And Marius, in my opinion, is one of the most “human” vampires among the coven. His mistakes were in it’s majority also ridiculously human, being driven by the impulse of his emotions.
So I think that instead of focusing only on the bad things, you also should remember how wonderful his good side is. How loving, caring, compassionate, intelligent and cultured Marius is.
Marius was not the only one to commit mistakes. And it is good that he did because it’s a nice reminder that not even “immortal beings” are perfect, no matter how godlike they appear to be.
Therefore, my point is: instead of simply judging and saying that he is a shitty character because he was not what you thought he was, give it a second thought. No one is made only by their good sides, nor by their mistakes alone.
To like him or dislike him is personal, though. Yet, to say that his character sucks only because you don’t like it…. it’s hella stupid and makes me hella pissed.
Therefore, my point is: instead of simply judging and saying that he is a shitty character because he was not what you thought he was, give it a second thought. No one is made only by their good sides, nor by their mistakes alone.
