Here I am again with another VC casting, what about David Garrett as Nicolas? He plays the violin, has long hair and has a historical appearance. I think he would be a good person to play Nicolas.

Interesting choice! He can definitely play a violin. 

Tons of vids to choose from, I picked this bc he’s playing it w/o any accompaniment and you can see him really getting into the music like Nicolas did. “And this is what I do!” TOO FRICKIN’ CUTE. 30 seconds in and he’s already proven he can “rip into a little sonata, sweet enough and just short enough to bring down the house.” And now I headcanon that Nicki tied his hair back like this on occasion ❤

~AND NOW LETS LOOK AT SOME STILLS~

… BC OF REASONS.

This is from Playboy ‘09 and like, awww yisss that is a yummy filthy musician wearing a clean shirt and jacket:

We also already have fanart of him in which he looks like Nicolas! This is by buriedflowers on DA:

He played Paganini in the Devil’s Violinist, appropriately. I didn’t see it so I can’t comment but maybe I will have to watch it now… here’s a little scene from it, tho!

Nicolas is often soothed by two things: music and the kill. Oddly enough, both are also capable of creating chaos for him, but as he tends to always live in chaos, that which is brought on by the embrace of the kill and the music–both of these have the power to enfold rather than disperse. 

The secret is in the rhythm. Both contain motion and movement–the repetition and the secret thudding music inherent in the kill echoes that which he finds within the music and can succeed in pulling him back from the edge on many an occasion.
