It does not get better as I continue to listen to it. Does anyone speak Japanese here? Translation needed.
Nevermind I found the translation. Still does not improve it. Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way could write SUCH better lyrics.
HOWEVER, this is great, bc the more that name gets out there, the less able certain ppl are to claim sole custody of it, so WE CAN MAKE OUR OWN DAMN MERCH WITH IT.
Christmas Song on Archive of Our Own
Louis and his experiences with one particular Christmas song throughout the years. Of course there’s also a bit of Lestat in there, because what would we do without him?
Inspired by one of @merciful-death’s great headcanons and originally written as a Secret Santa gift to her. @i-want-my-iwtv helped with feedback and improvements.
As I wrote to @darknessmolten:
“First of all how dare you. I love it! …Very well done. I’m glad you took on the challenge of hitting all of her prompts, and it’s clear a lot of thought and care went into this.”
Some of my actual notes while beta’ing this lovely piece, in the order that the notes appeared:
Oh, what a fun class!

HEAVEN
no seriously just listen to this.
Louis, the watcher, the patient one, was there on account of love pure and simple. The two had found each other only last night, and theirs had been an extraordinary reunion. Louis would go where Lestat led him. Louis would perish if Lestat perished
