I kissed him. I pressed my lips to his and I held this kiss for a long silent moment. And then I gave in to a silent wave of feeling, and I took him in my arms. I held him tight against me. I felt his unmistakable silken skin, his soft shining black hair. I heard the blood throbbing in him, and time dissolved, and it seemed I was in some old and secret place, some warm tropical grotto we’d once shared, ours alone in some way, with the scent of sweet olive blossoms and the whisper of moist breeze. “I love you,” I whispered.
In a low intimate voice, he answered: “My heart is yours.”

“I’d like to meet the devil some night,” he said once with a malignant smile. “I’d chase him from here to the wilds of the Pacific. I am the devil.” And when I was aghast at this, he went into peals of laughter.

love your blog <3 I was recently looking at VC cosplays, which are your favorites? I'd love to hear your thoughts. I really enjoyed a new one I saw, the Lestat is on point but the Louis isn't a perfect face for me: it's 'everythingman' on the cosplay dotcom site

Thanks! *u*  You want my opinion on cosplay? Hmmmm *cracks knuckles*

Cosplay, for me, isn’t just about the looks, it’s also in the attitude. So if someone’s eyes aren’t the shade as described in the book it’s not a dealbreaker. I think I prefer silly/parody cosplays because it’s so hard to achieve the serious dramatic quality one gets with the added $$$, experienced professionals of cinematography, costume design, lighting, etc., that the film industry relies on when making films. When you aim for silly/parody, it’s truly more about the performance than the physical look.

That said, here’s an example I like of everyman as Lestat:

I think it works! Looking at his other pics, he’s really gone to great lengths to recreate scenes/relationships, and he’s got good Lestatuesque body language and attitude.

As for the Louis, yeah, in most of the pics he seems #ooc, but I think ^this expression is excellent! He’s got the “Lestat omfg STOP” just under his dignified veneer. Nice sharp French features, great outfit, looks like the right age. He could even work as Nicolas. If only this guy worked as well in his front angle as his profile *siiiigh*.

Melodysknight as Lestat gets massive points for also playing the IWTV pieces.

I have a cosplay tag if you want more, but for now (in no special order):

chrissydeath is a fave precious Armand:

Anne Rice and I agree on sheepskeleton’s lovely Armand:

This Lestat by variousnoises amuses me and looks good, too:

There are some great silly Lestat (and sometimes a Louis appears) cosplay videos, here’s one by DemonsWithTea:

And there’s this Lestat omg by Parle Productions:

There’s a great lestat-and-louis ask blog! Very accurate gif of Lestat & Armand discussing things civilly:

Aaaaand have a terrible Louis cosplay by Daniel Tosh, but I don’t think he was going for accuracy (had to include at least one more male cosplayer here, what can I say, female cosplayers just seem to do it better!):
