I was thinking of a VC headcanon that Lestat decides to watch Austin Powers one night, and falls in love with it. he then awkwardly realizes that he is dressed the same way as Austin. Ruffly, lacy shirt with a velvet suit.
And then, I remembered…
this:

Hello to you! PL is meant as a branching-off of canon… so there are plot points and characters in BC that don’t exist in PL. PL is like an AU, if things had gone in a different direction after MtD.
If you really want to read PL, go ahead, right after TVA!
BUT: PL is not myfavorite VC… and there will be characters in the story that you won’t be familiar with. PL tries to give some background on them, but it feels more like telling than showing :- You’ll probably have a richer, more layered understanding of them if you read the books that follow TVA first.
That’s alot of books to deal with, so if I had to make you read just one, at least read Blood and Gold before PL.
Messages like this make it all worth it *u* I’m always honored that people want my opinion, and I do really try to support it with canon or fanon.
Of course, #your headcanon may vary, and #ship and let ship. I know some ppl are very defensive of their headcanons, so always take my opinions as that – MY opinions. If you want to accept some headcanons, cool, if not, also cool ;]
I “met” Lestat for the first time during my third year of high school and there was the twilight-hype everywhere so all my classmates where like: “read twilight read twilight!) xD I had never thought of reading something vampires-related because I’ve never been an horror fan (better, I can’t read horror because I am afraid of almost everything…especially clowns, but this is another story~) and I had always associated vampires with this genre. Buut I was veeery curious to find out more about these fantasy creatures (I love fantasy! ♡), but Twilight was not at all my cup of tea! so I started browsing in my usual bookshoop and then I found…it: “interview with the vampire”! I remember that I thought: “this title is cool!”, although I expected something like an essay about vampires in literature in the form of an interview (I expected to receive answers on vampires mythology by Louis…now it seems a bit hilarious since he’s always whining about not having a clue xD), but I was not disappointed at all by the actual book *-* and then…it was a marathon of the whole series in a summer and I also saw the movie (and I also made my friends watch it, but not all of them appreciated it …ppst: the Italian dubbing is very good for this one!).
My favourite character at first was Louis (aah the charm of the good and tormented guy!), but then I fell in love with Lestat when I read “the vampire lestat” (“Scelti dalle tenebre”/“Chosen by darkness” in Italian)…very traditional story I guess xD! I love his endless love for life :3 (and I ship him hard with nicki and louis of course u.u). Moreover, I felt really near him in because of some similar thoughts I had in that period of my life, and the part of human-lestat always moves me ;__;
I also like Louis, Gabrielle and David Talbot 🙂 but in general I like them all (well…except Dora *hem hem*).
I’ve also read the mummy and angel time (here only “angel”) but not all anne rice books are published here or some of them are not easy to find (cry to heaven for example) so I think I’ll read them in English! 🙂
I hope my answer was entertaining and my English not too awkward XD
♛“Pssssst: that’s not the only thing about him that’s a mouthful.”
Alright *shoves Lestat aside* to answer your question: How to pronounce Louis de Pointe du Lac: you’re lucky I took French in high school which has been EVER so useful to me in my adult life. NOT.
Louis: “Loo-wee”, with less emphasis on the “wee” part.
de: “dih,” means “from” in French.
Pointe: “Pwan” with almost no emphasis on the “n,” means “tip.”
du: “due,” means “of.”
Lac: “Lack,” means, “lake.”
BRING IT ALL TOGETHER! Emphasis on Pointe and Lac bc of reasons.
So some VC RPers had put a tumblr together for that awhile back and unfortunately it’s sort of fallen out of use, but I think it’s still a good starting out point:
Check these tags of mine, they have RPers in them.
#for rpers
#RP
#bump
I would make a masterpost of RPers but A) RPers do go inactive or change their URL, B) I wouldn’t want anyone to feel left out, in case I missed someone.
Once you find some RPers you like, check to see if they have Follow Forever tags, like this one, it usually makes a handy (tho possibly out of date) list there, too!
