Hi! I love your blog soooo much! Is it bad I check it at LEAST twice a day? Oops. 

Awww that’s very sweet! I try to make it the blog I wanted to find when I first got into fandom and yeah, I would be checking such a blog at least twice a day, I’m sure ^______^

I’m posting less often bc I’m even more picky about what I post/reblog than when I started this thing. If I posted every meme I had an idea for, there would be a lot of crappy ones, y’know? I only make the ones that give me a physical reaction in concept. 

Same with rebageling. Only the posts that really hit that sweet spot of my particular sense of humor/taste. And if I posted every VC thing (fanart, fanfic, cosplay, article, aesthetic post, meta analysis, etc.) that comes across my dash, I’d be avalanching you guys with VC stuff and that’s not good either. I try to keep to my 10 post/day limit to keep this stuff curated, and keep it manageable for me, too bc there are only so many hours in the day and I can’t watch the dash 24/7. There will always be at least 1 thing posted from my queue tho 😉 If that ever runs out, then you know there’s no one at the wheel here anymore ;A;

Anyway, I feel like I don’t know much about you personally. 

There’s a reason for that. I always felt like this blog should only be about, and for, VC! And I, myself, am not a VC thing 😛 Even though I do make fanworks, and encouraging fanworks is another aim of this blog. And it’s for promoting positivity in the VC fandom, bc positivity leads to fresh fanworks leads to fresh positivity… <333

BUT, there’s some stuff about me in my #being social tag, and I have my own selfies mixed into the #selfie tag, too. I keep my fandom life and Real Life as separate as I can. I don’t want to use this blog as a place to vent or brag about myself, not very much, admittedly, I do do that occasionally. OCCASIONALLY. Would you want that? I didn’t think you wanted that! DO YOU?!

^Here’s my faaaaace why does my wrist look huge?, selfie taken in Oct. 2014 for the PL booksigning, I’m kinda camera shy y’know? I look better in motion, not flattened out and frozen in a picture… it makes my fingers itch to photoshop it, but this one has no photoshoppin’, just decent lighting. My hair is actually wavy/curly and much shorter now bc getting it that straight ‘n tamed was always a chore. Even so, I kinda miss the long hair, which I’d kept long for YEARS. It got tangled every day. Every day was a choice between brushing out the tangles painfully or allowing them to get more tangled, putting off a worse brushing later. Maybe I’ll take a few selfies for you, anon. 

image

^normal sized wrists here see? I also kinda want to bleach/dye my hair blonde or silvery white like I had in this wig when I was Andy Warhol for one Halloween, but it wouldn’t be this silky bc MY HAIR IS CURSEDLY WAVY/CURLY. 

Hit the jump for moar about ME 

What other fandoms are you in? 

I’m not really IN the fandoms but I love the Walking Dead and Hannibal… not really in any others, but I like the fanart and discussion on some, like Harry Potter, Marvel (MCU)(I ship Stony bc of @americancaptain, but I’m open to other ships), Yuri on Ice, Attack on Titan, I’m sure there are others that I can’t think of right now. I love watching Hoarders, it helps keep my own magpie tendencies in check! 

Do you have any other tumblrs? 

None that are active, so I’d rather not share. I’m considering launching a sideblog for all the not-VC stuff I can’t post here. Would you want that? There would be a helluva lot more cat pics like for realz. ALL THE CAT PICS I CANT POST HERE. 

And do you/have you ever cosplayed? 

Nope! I’d love to cosplay as Lestat but alas I am his opposite in just about every physical characteristic lol. Being half Greek and half Russian, I could probably pull off an Armand.

My past several Halloweens have not been very notable since I refuse to dress sexy. Even so, I gotta try for something special this year. I was a computer virus for one

Halloween (my own sorta wacky idea) and ppl said I looked like a Power Rangers villain, Rita Repulsa. *shrugs*

^Hey I think it was pretty cool regardless.

Have a nice day (: 

Thanks! You tooooo!

  • Last movie you watched: Birdman. Liked Michael Keaton.
  • Last song you listened to: Hearing Damage – Thom Yorke
  • Last show you watched: Forensic Files (I actually leave this on every night to help get to sleep, the narrator’s voice is really soothing for me!)
  • Last book you read: Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis is in progress!!!
  • Last thing you ate: a vanilla frosted doughnut and a chocolate frosted doughnut, yes, am very naughty.
  • If you could be anywhere at the moment, where would you be?: Curled up on my couch, candle ablaze, tea in hand, notepad, PLROA in lap.
  • Where would you travel in time?: That’s a toughie… I know I should pick smtg more social justice related, can’t think of a really good one atm.

    Purely for selfish reasons, 1993 to watch the filming of Interview with the Vampire. Another selfish option: I’d love to go back and see some of my fave musicians perform. Like NIN at Lollapalooza in 1991 ;D

  • First thing you’d do if you won the lottery?: I’d feel obligated to figure out a good social justice cause, spend money on that… and then set up an art studio compound where ppl could come and make art all the live-long day ^_____^ Some of it might be art-therapy, like a rehab.
  • Fictional character you’d hang out with for a day: Y’all prolly think I’d pick Lestat… and you would be right! But other than any VC character, I’d want to hang out with Ava from Only Lovers Left Alive! She’d probably kill me lol, Eve would be a better choice, probably not as fun, tho.

^These aren’t in any special order and they are a pretty random list of characters I like, some of these might not count as fandoms but OH WELL. My own added challenge was to NOT choose any VC characters 😉

Tagging some recent ppl in my Activity feed and/or wherevs, also in no special order:

@amadeo-child-of-the-renaissance, @lemewsee, @thevampiregirl4321, @great-pan-is-dead, @filmnoirvampire, @phantasmaturgia, @keepxsolxinxsolxinvictus, @sam-biteback, @annabellioncourt, @lady-of-greenwood, @laurasking, @viedzma, @entropy-and-apathy, @zikami, @littleredmoon, @hallowedgroundstudio, @hallowedgroundofmurderedsanity, @livingdollclaudia, @ruewashere, @aperfectdevil, @vozdelanoche, @amelierivere, @kotilae, @fuck-yeah-vampire-chronicles, @chrissydeath, @nightislandofficial, @oramuda, @lia-is-a-cucumber, @batsinthedark, @queenofthesavagegarden, @menacing-cherub, @kindadriftingintotheabstract, @vinceaddams, @lapetitedraculina, @claudia-lilvampire, @necrodruidlife, @friendlyjinx, @anaryawe, @the-renfield-malady, @junkyarddollxx, @comtessevoncorbuleac, @vampiricmusicaltheatre, @lestatthewolfkiller, @lestatscherie, @annamichaelisteller, @ninetailedfoxkid, @sweetly-insane, @artisticfreedomofexpression, @vonnepsa, @transylvaniateaparty, @shinjunosekai, @calycine, @fyeahgothicromance, @luthi69, @katzenfabrik, @ioananix, @merveilleuse-minuit, @honeyvanity, @lisams20, @muirin007, @radiatorfromspace, @murdereratthematinee, @monstersinthecosmos

This might be a strange question, but does the VC affect your day to day life? For example: you’re reading a book and you think “Louis might like this.” Or you see a child and her appearance reminds you of Claudia? Or perhaps you find yourself quoting something from the books when you’re having a conversation. Do you ever experience those little daily moments when the VC doesn’t seem to be relevant but suddenly you are reminded of it because of the things you experience?

Not a strange question at all! It does affect me, in a positive way 😀

  • Kids often make me think about Claudia, both for VC casting ideas and also what it would be like to be an adult trapped in that little body (5 yr olds really are small!). I’ve never seen a *~perfect~* kid to play her, though. I think Kirsten Dunst set the bar very high. 
  • Speaking of VC casting – I am always on the lookout for that. There’s a homeless guy I pass by on a regular basis who might be great for Lestat’s dad during the IWTV era. I’d love to share a pic but I feel like it would be rude to take one 😛
  • My headcanon for the VC characters is often in the back of my mind, and something might spark an idea about one or more of them, useful for fanfic ideas… Here in NYC I saw some older ladies, tourists, petting some huge police horses with policemen in the saddles, looking down and making small talk back at the ladies, and I had a very clear vision of Lestat seeing that as a form of fellatio (the men were straddling these massive animals and the women were flirting with them, practically fondling the horse’s necks and faces!) and finding it pretty hilarious, having to explain why he was laughing to Louis… so I wrote it up: 9TH AVE, BETWEEN 57TH & 58TH ST. 
  • I’ll often slip in quotes from the books in emails or conversation partly bc they sound good but also it’s sort of a feeler to fish out other VC fans. Sometimes it works, too!

It works on bad days, too, I’ll just remind myself that Lestat doesn’t take this kind of crap from anyone, he just dusts himself off and kicks the asses that needed kicking!

How friendly of u fam! 

1. Watching people and animals dance, and occasionally I have been known to join in.

2. RETAIL THERAPY (I don’t have to buy anything I mostly just like trying stuff on and my retail stamina is legendary; I can outshop pretty much anyone provided I have coffee boosters). I especially love trying on hideous things and making ppl laugh at how NOONE could make the outfit look good.

3. PHYSICAL CARDS IN THE MAIL WRITTEN BY HAND ❤ Bonus points for stickers or other decorations on the envelope. I like making and sending these, too. 

4. I like the writing prompts I was getting for a hot minute there, and I am working on filling one.

5. I like crossing things off my massive To Do list. TBH I like adding things to it, too. It makes me happy to know I’m irreplaceable ❤
