“If goodness does exist,” he said, “then I’m the opposite of it. I’m evil and I revel in it. I thumb my nose at goodness. And if you must know, I don’t play the violin for the idiots who come to Renaud’s to make them happy. I play it for me, for Nicolas.” – Nicolas de l’Enfent, The Vampire Lestat (p.1, ch.7)

Trent Reznor from the 90’s as Nicolas de l’Enfent. Intense and (somewhat mad?) musical genius… I bet he can play violin, too. Siiigh.

Interview With The Vampire

Y’know, it’s very hard to hear it, but Louis actually replies: “You call this PEACE?!” as he knocks the glass away. Lestat’s main point is to Get Over Yourself THIS IS WHAT YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO DO So Drink It, Bitch, whereas Louis is more concerned with the grotesque means of extracting it.

I’m such a meanie…
Character Lestat de Lioncurt belongs to Anne Rice….this Idiocy It’s by me…

“By day I almost forgot the vision of the inn, and the darkness. Unless, of course, … I happened upon a public execution in the place de Grave.

And I was always happening upon a public execution in the place de Grave.

I’d wander out of the square shuddering, almost moaning. I could become obsessed with it if not distracted.” – The Vampire Lestat (p.1, ch.7)

(He wasn’t a vampire at that point, but remembering those public executions as a vampire was probably still upsetting on some level?)

Cutest human award goes to Anne Rice.

I know she’s the author…but it’s like she’s making her own fanfiction…is that possible??

So cute, the idea of AR making her own fanfiction. She does make these fanfic-ish comments occasionally and I, for one, love them, regardless that they sometimes seem out of character/canon.

La somnambule – Edouard Rosset-Granger

1897

Babbette Freneire-esque? From Interview with the Vampire:

“She was looking at me now, the lamp raised; and just when I meant to look away, I saw her face change. It went still, blank, as if her soul were losing its consciousness. She closed her eyes and shook her head. It occurred to me that I had somehow caused her to go into a trance without any effort on my part.‘What are you!’ she whispered.’You’re from the devil. You were from the devil when you came to me! ”
