Yoooo just droppin by to send a huge hug to all the VC Secret Santas yall be the real Santas out there hope yall get lots of milks and cookies or wtv is traditional in ur country 😊😸😘
We need an AFFORDABLE set of VC dolls, for sure, and it would be great if they were like this one <333
EDIT/UPDATE: saint-rouge informs us that this BJD (ball jointed doll) “for anyone interested it is the sculpt ‘Infernale’ by DollIOS ! Another good vampire sculpt is the ‘Gluino — Vampire Alchemist’ by Soom.”
Thanks @saint-rouge ! 😀 I’m on mobile so I can’t easily link to those but anyone can reblog this and add the links and image(s) of the other doll and I’ll reblog it if I see it.
♥u♥ You’re so sweet to ask! @wicked-felina (aka Rebness) look look they want more!
(You’re the same person or another a second lovely reader, bc I saw that we recently got a comment on it over on AO3 asking for moooore, and I haven’t had a chance to log in over there and r e s p o n d like a Proper Ficwriter ought to… and I am very touched that anyone wants more…)
SO! The Last Drop is technically a few scenes that didn’t fit into the main story which was Signature Blend, so if you haven’t read that, it’s the same AU ‘verse. We have ideas for a few more chapters for the Last Drop, so if I ever break through my writer’s block *cries*, you’ll have those and more ideas that are in the works with my awesome collaborator <333
I kick my muse into gear bc the @vcsecretgifts exchange WILL BE HAPPENING and I’ll be participating!
So the first time I ever saw this was when a friend copied it to a Facebook VC page, and I knew that whoever had done it was freaking brilliant. Now I can say with first-hand authority that this is true.
Awww, thanks dear! *hugs* I am proud of my old VC Failbook posts. There weren’t many but they were quality.
FYI to y’all: I actually visited @sanguinivora in brick space (real life!) a few weeks ago, proper post to follow. She put me up for Halloween and I got a special bookie wook from Powell’s, gotta post about that, too… Absorbed a whole lot of her ideas about the adaptation, @sanguinivora is one of my main theatre expert advisors here, specializing in 4th wall breakage, lol.
i went to see Perturbator tonight with @yureiyume and we pregramed at a vegetarian restaurant with @i-want-my-iwtv and it was pretty magical okay
10/10 passionate IRL convo about vampires over hard cider was passionate
Yaaaaasss was awesome to meet up in meatspace w/ these lovely VC fandom ppl and talk their ears off about the adaptations we’re (never) gonna get lol! Apparently @yureiyume lives across the Hudson River from me omg! More RL meetups in the future ;}
FYI I finally got my Lestat concert shirt by @jealizing so here it is so y’all can seeee it:
So while snooping around online, I managed to find a Japanese edition of The Vampire Armand and I have never seen anyone post the cover art, which is just gorgeous to me!
There seems to be an alternative cover as well:
I found them on Amazon.co.jp, here are the links in case anyone is eager to import!
Also there seems to be other titles of Anne Rice’s work also in a similar retro shoujo style if you look at her author page on Amazon.jp. It’s a shame that it’s only for the covers, I’d love to read an Armand manga in this style, why does only IWTV to get one, you know?
^Above covers and text submitted by @baroquebat, thank you, much appreciated! I had never seen these before, they’re lovely ❤
>I’d love to read an Armand manga in this style, why does only IWTV to get one, you know?
*nods* Me too! Of course we have our awful graphic novels of the 90′s but whatever…*
IWTV and TVL got the graphic novel treatment in the 90′s, I’m not sure how far up canon those went bc I didn’t really like them 😛 IWTV and TVL only, I think. It seems to me that the publishers are missing out on an incredible financial opportunity. I don’t know the backstory on how the IWTV graphic novel Claudia’s Story got made, but I would think that The Vampire Armand would have to go through a similar approval process.
We do have these, and CS is the best of them, IMO.
Awww what a sweet thing to say! Yeah I’d be pretty sad if this blog disappeared, too.
(If this blog is ever shut down w/o warning, I’ll set up a new blog (or ask a few specific ppl here) to post the info of whatever happened to me and tag it #iwantmyiwtv, but hopefully we won’t have to deal w/ that.)
