do lestat and louis actually date in the books this is a srs question pls answer

No, they don’t really date in canon *cries* You gotta read between the lines!

[^from Mad Magazine. Date night used to involve getting all dolled up, sharing a nice French “wine” and then pretending to eat dinner and this is where alot of my sense of humor originally came from btw]

They had a very intense and rocky beginning that seemed to skip over the dating phase directly to marriage, then parenting, and then the separation for around 100 years.

I wouldn’t say they “date” in canon in the conventional sense of the word. There are certain moments they have together like that heartbreaking little scene when they met the night before Lestat’s concert (TVL), and another time when Lestat drags Louis against his will to go pester David Talbot for the first time (QOTD) 😛

You might like my #Another typical night at the Rue Royale tag for some date-y stuff.

…But in a more general sense, they do sort of Netflix and chill together. From Tale of the Body Thief:

“It’s amazing how often he came to visit me in my overheated and brilliantly illuminated rooms downtown. There he watched my giant television screen for hours. Sometimes he brought his own films for it on disk or tape. The Company of Wolves, that was one which he watched over and over… There were many other films which delighted him. But these visits could never be commanded by me, and they never lasted very long. He often deplored the “rank materialism” in which I “wallowed” and turned his back on my velvet cushions and thickly carpeted floor, and lavish marble bath. He drifted off again, to his forlorn and vine-covered shack.”

Sadly, both Louis and Lestat don’t kiss and tell much when it comes to their romantic interactions. There’s alot of Lestat pining for Louis, bc (in the immortal words of @hyperbeeb#nobody ships Louis and Lestat harder than Lestat ships Louis and Lestat… 

You’d think, for one of the fandom’s main ships, there would be more of it explicitly canon. There just isn’t, sadly. Part of why it’s such a tough ship is that AR just does not let us have much in terms of fluff of them! It mostly happens off-screen. Which is where fanfic steps in to satisfy that need ;]

After seeing your lovely drawing of lestat and louis I just had to watch the film and well it was amazing and I’m reading the books now, so thank you for helping me discover something awesome!

This is best!!! I’m so glad you liked it! The whole book series is straight up fabulous, and Anne Rice who writes them is such a sassy lady! Yikes I’m just so excited because I literally haven’t fan-girled over the Vampire Chronicles for YEARS.

Louis has a PHD in ignoring Lestat

How do you think sex would be between Louis and Lestat if they could have sex? ( ͡͡ ° ͜ ʖ ͡ °) ( Also, Sorry for the bad english,, is not my first language )

Naughty little Anon >;} There are two ways to answer this question, the physiological side and the behavioral side (and there is some overlap). Sex is an act of intimacy, and many ppl have different definitions of intimacy, more than just “insert tab A into slot B,” y’know? Some ppl are not stimulated by penetrative sex, or can’t have it for whatever reason. Some ppl are only stimulated that way.

I’m not going to go into the physiological aspect (for example, the length of their refractory period, u can google what that is) or getting too detailed re: specific body positions or toy preferences, bc I don’t think that’s what you’re asking. But several kinks will be addressed generally 😉

(Briefly, physiologically: they would probably be shooting blanks, since the female of the species is unable to carry a child to term. So I would imagine seminal fluid might look similar to the usual fluid, but be tinted pink, since all of their bodily fluids (tears, sweat) have some amount of blood content. And they would be able to swallow it, bc of the blood content, like they can consume tears). 

Sex as an act depends on what part of canon we’re talking about, what’s the state of their ship, tons of factors. But most of my answer below works even if you headcanon that the bloodsharing is all they can do. 

Basically, they’re both very curious, and willing to try new things, so there’s almost no limit re: sexytiems! It would be intensely hot.

Hit the jump for sexytiems ideas…


Locations are very important to them. Sometimes just their cozy bed right after they wake up, and it’s gentle and slow with alot of cuddling and praise. Sometimes in the confines of a coffin for old-times sake and the spacial restriction. Other times it’s right before dawn and it’s so rough that things (bedding and furniture) get totally destroyed!

They love to do it in public (although sometimes that’s unintentional, just one of those exchanges like, “Shut UP already,” Oh yeah? Make me.” can ignite them), somewhere just off the beaten path, where they could be discovered easily, so they have to try to keep as quiet as possible.

^[X] Even more than location are the positions that locations can afford. One of the first times they were intimate was in a tree. It required a lot of balance, but the curve of the trunk and branches added a huge thrill to the experience. Against walls and other structures is always a plus.

Oral action, of course. Bc w/ fangs, anywhere can be an erogenous zone ;D

As far as who’s on top, alot of ppl seem to headcanon that Lestat would mostly be a top or a very bossy bottom. I would bet that they switch, but that Louis will really only bottom for Lestat (or Armand when he was with him!). When Louis bottoms, he is rendered pretty inarticulate at a certain point and that drives Lestat right over the edge!

Language- Typically a lot of teasing and cursing in French, specifically the older French they spoke in the late 18th – early 19th centuries.

They accessorize- Lots of lace, they like to buy each other things to dress up in! Tho, Louis won’t put on the cheerleader outfit that Lestat won from a real NFL cheerleader, so Lestat wears that one.

Sometimes Lestat will deck Louis out in jewels (even putting a ton of diamond barrettes in his hair) and nothing else. Something about Louis wearing only sparkles is a huge turn-on for Lestat.

They play with toys… I think this is pretty self-explanatory. There was an issue re: a haunted dildo (CHECK IT OUT HERE). They also sometimes make their own toys ^u^

Bondage. Definitely. BC reasons. Although they’re both so strong that the bondage device itself has to be respected, or else they’d just break right out of anything. Almost harder to not break these fragile little things like fur-lined cuffs and leather collars. 

Sensory deprivation, like blindfolding.

Louis, of course, likes the room lit with candles, and they sometimes play with the melted wax.

Lestat fantasizes about threesomes, and on a few rare occasions, Louis has given in but would never admit that he enjoyed the extra attention (bc of course he was the center of attention!).

The comic commission for @i-want-my-iwtv based on the strip comic reference she gave me :]!

I gave out the final lined+toned versions so here’s a peek of that!

OKAY I love this too much NOT to reblog this NSFW version of it. The final lined+toned versions I am keeping to myself for now bc I am evil 

¯_(ツ)_/¯

The strip comic reference I gave him is here, which is a fandom treasure, and truth be told I just needed to see it… *~spicier~*. As you can see, I changed the dialogue and blocking somewhat to fit this hawt version >;}
