This is the seedier side of literature and sometimes when it’s late, I cruise the streets until I find him….sprawled in some dusty corner of a well-used bookshop with pages draped over his bare arm, a glazed look in his eyes, high as a kite on Chaucer or Fitzgerald, and a trail of crumpled bills leading to the counter. As I pick up his inert body and walk past the shelves, dog-eared, greasy, stained pulp novels that have seen things, call me ‘Sugar’ and put their wares on display to tempt me. I keep going with his weight in my arms. For him, I cannot give in. It’s fortunate that I love him so…..even though he’s an addict. *shakes his head*
#this sparkly-ass bloodsucking disco ball of vanity
Some or all of that may in fact be true. Our fandom’s true OTP is Lestat/Mirrors.
As for the #vampire physiology aspect, I don’t think Lestat is THAT shiny. Without spoiling anything for you, I’ll tell you that his skin, at least in mid-canon, is not as marble-white as some other vampire flesh can be. Yeah, if he knows he’s going to be photographed (like for modeling!), he’d probly use a light spray tan to reduce the glare.
Vanity is definitely his fave sin. Gluttony would probably be a close second >;}
@i-want-my-iwtv I keep forgetting that Lestat is half Italian as well as being half French and just…how much more of a stereotypical fop could he be? XP
every time I see this I want to say “hey Italians aren’t THAT vain” but then I think about all the men in my family and I’m like “yeah, yeah that’s totally true”
IKR? I keep forgetting he’s half-Italian too! Pretty much the best of both worlds with the ~fopness.~ Lestat/Mirrors is our REAL fandom OTP.
