fallingloki: # SANTIAGO AKA MY LOVE # U WERE A MINOR CHARACTER IN THE SERIES BUT A MAJOR CHARACTER IN MY HEART # vc # iwtv
Santiago is a horrible monster, but there was something magnetic about him all the same, maybe due to his insistence on Obeying the Rules w/ Extreme Sass. To be such a fantastic antagonist, just what was his DAMAGE, y’know? just want more of his backstory!

Good question! You might want to ask carpenoctem-vampirology, I think she’s found a way to !!earn a living!! through her fascination with vampires, for which I will always be envious!
I find alot about them fascinating, mainly their psychology (human, but tranformed; they exist outside alot of the human struggle for self-preservation but are still subject to similar needs) and their physiology (how are they made? How are they destroyed? What’s the deal with crucifixes? What about coffins? How do their systems function on just blood as a nutrition source? What is up with those Dark Gifts? etc.).
However it’s not ALL vampires that are fascinating to me. I’m aware of the wide spectrum of vampire media out there, but the ones I find most fascinating (and that doesn’t mean they’re the BEST, just what I prefer) are:
Probably missing something important here but you’ve had enough, haven’t you? lol.

Hey liquorandptsdvarietyshow this Steve looks a little like you, mainly in the faceparts.
It may be the shades.
Every character I draw looks like me after a while. It’s about 50% shades and 50% about that he’s Irish.
I’ve often thought this about your art, too. And your writing. Your characters do resemble you. They have presence on the page, like all great actors. I haven’t had the chance to meet you IRL, I’ve only heard your voice, but I think I can state that YOU, by proxy through your works, have presence.
Gonna take a moment to sing your praises, please accept that it’s bc you do deserve praise:
I love your drawing style. Specifically, the sense of proportion and dimension of the bodies and clothing, the clean basics of settings, the expressiveness in the faces (even when trying to mask w/ aviators!) is magnetic and endearing.
The dialogue you give your characters is sharp and in character, opening up intriguing avenues of consideration framed in your headcanon. Even the font is visually appealing.
I’m sure I’m not alone in the wish for you to be able to sit and draw and write and snuggle in bed with fresh pizza and be financially stable (surplused would be even better!) and accept that you are loved and admired from afar by many people… and it’s not even the number of people who love and admire you that’s important here. It’s what we all have in common. Varying degrees of healthy addiction to YOU.
Isn’t that what Following is about? We follow people throughout different platforms (FB, Twitter, Tumblr, etc.) in order to be fed from those people who make us think, remind us to dream, give us that little jolt of pleasure at their latest creative output, thought, discussion topic, selfie…
So that’s why I follow you. I’d bet your other followers would say something similar. Or have more reasons. Both.

UM.
EM THAT IS A VERY NICE COMPLIMENT.
REPLETE WITH CUTE KITTIES (who are totally doing a Lestat/Louis thing, amirite?)
That’s really very lovely of you. It’s really unbelievably touching and sweet and nice. Thank you. And I think you’re right about following. My choices are usually informed by similar things.
*u* good! Exactly what I hoped you’d get out of it.
and yes they ARE doing a Lestat/Louis thing!
