OKAY SO.
I’ve always found Marius’ complete ideological 180 at the end of TVA (and presumably carrying over into his foul mood in BaG) really confusing. But rereading bits of QotD it occurred to me that Marius’ speech to Armand explaining his loss of faith has a lot of similarities with Akasha’s speech when explaining why humanity is inherently evil and overdue for a cull.
I’ve already talked about this with a few of you guys but i-want-my-iwtv thought I should still make a proper post with quotes and things, so here goes.

Armand, are there any coven rituals from your time as coven master that you still practice for any reason? Are there any that your remember as being fun/enjoyable at all?
“Our old rituals? No. That part of my life is over. I have no wish to resurrect it.
As for ‘fun’, the notion was anathema to our way of life. We permitted ourselves two pleasures: the twin trances of the blood and the Sabbats. I did enjoy those, even if it was a desperate kind of elation that animated us at those times.
After my ascension to the role of Coven Master, I participated less often in the dancing, being expected instead to preside over my flock in their revels. But I would join them occasionally, to reassure them of my faith. There was a kind of innocence to most of them. They truly believed we were all brothers and sisters. For a while, so did I. There was some peace to be had in that.”
@moral-cipher replied to your photoset “I was tagged for VC fandom selfies (thanks @xlilvamp and…”
im probably going nuts from doing finals for too long lmao, but you look weirdly like a female tom cruise to me in that second picture??? it’s probably the expression. these are all so cute tho!! i love 4 and 5.
Thank u! so that is the highest compliment for me, you wouldn’t think I’d (a *chick*) WANT to look like him (a *dude*), but I doooo… at least 80′s-90′s Tom…
^The artist who drew that had to have airbrushed out some under-eye wrinkles bc they OCCUR…. I even get fake Ray-Ban style shades to match ;] I think we tend to be attracted to ppl we see some similarity with ourselves… I know someone who adores Jeremy Renner and I swear she could be related to him…
Does anyone else out here think they might resemble their faves in some way? I can’t be alone in this…

replied to your post “Hello! I hope you’re well! I was just curious Lestat mentions in TVL…”
i totally can’t remember there being an eighth 😮 what book is that from?
In TVL, Lestat talking about his mom:
[Gabrielle] had always been silently unhappy. She hated the inertia and the hopelessness of our life here as much as I did. And now, after eight children, three living, five dead, she was dying. This was the end for her.

Hi, could you please recommend some Armand ask blogs (if there are any)? I have a question for him but I can’t seem to find any “ask Armand” type of blogs??
It’s a touchy subject, recommending blogs, as inevitably I’ll leave someone out and then they may feel, well, LEFT OUT :-
I don’t follow as many RP blogs as I used to, it was too much to keep up with the various threads, some have gone inactive, new ones have started up… All attempts to make VC directories usually fail.
However, and that said, so you know I’m not playing favorites, there are some I remember by name, and so I tagged them below, but this is an incomplete list. Let’s make this an Ask Armand and Armand RPer roundup! People Off The Page, reblog/comment with any Ask Armand and Armand RPer blog I left out 😉
(in no special order, active-status not guaranteed):
- @ask-the-vampire-armand-blog
- @fivehundredyearsyoung
- @moral-cipher
- @eternalandrei
- @auburnandamberangel
- @faceofabotticelliangel
- @amadeo-child-of-the-renaissance
- @bloodstainedcherub
- @damnitarmand
Hope that helps!
imagine for a moment Lestat And Friends playing d&d
THIS IS AN AMAZING IDEA and I sat on this in my inbox for a long time because I don’t know that much about D&D and I wish I had more to add to this situation. But like, YEAH like D&D Night at Trinity Gate, third Wednesday every month, sounds perfect. Everyone can come over. I’m more partial to the idea that it’s Armand & Friends and that Lestat comes over and crashes the party and acts like a douche but yeah man I think this DEFINITELY HAPPENS.
@sheysira @justsomespacedust @saintambrose DO YALL HAVE THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS?
#FANFIC REQUEST #FANART REQUEST
Oh man. A small selection because apparently my brain took this and ran with it a bit
“No, Lestat, being a bard does NOT mean you sing all your dialogue”
Daniel as DM because he’s the only one who’s even remotely unbiased
“I am going to smite you SO hard, you won’t even know what smote you. Say bonjour to my TWO-HANDED BROADAXE, you little goblin shit!” *rolls a critical miss*
“Oh, that’s great. Just great. I can’t believe you just said that. We have ONE healer in this party, so do you think just once you could keep your big mouth shut and try NOT to get us all killed?”
“Well maybe if St Francis over here *jabs thumb in Louis’ direction* had picked some USEFUL skills instead of “talking to animals” this wouldn’t have happened”
“Pardon? My charisma stats alone have saved this mission like three times THIS EVENING”
//meanwhile Armand is a min/maxing munchkin who number crunches all his stats and barely misses breaking the game
//Nicolas rolls bard and insists Lestat reroll priest/cleric “if he wants to be so ‘good’”
//totally. Spends points and money with extreme deliberation and keeps absolute track of his gear and any and all bonuses so he never forgets to make use of them at opportune moments
//y e p. Meanwhile Lestat playing chaotic neutral or some shit just so he can fuck with Armand with impunity
//I have no idea how to play D&D but you know I am ALL about COVEN GAME NIGHT!!!!!
