The 2015 Secret Santa Gift Exchange is happening!

vcsecretgifts:

We’re ready for our second annual Secret Santa fanworks gift exchange!  Sign ups are open now through December 1st at 11:59PM CST.  Check out the rules page, and then swing over and join in on the fun.

If you participated last year, or participated in any of the other exchanges we hosted after, you should be familiar with how this works.  Think Secret Santa, but with no sharing of physical addresses.  The gifts given are all shared completely on Tumblr, be it drabbles, fanart, awesome graphics, or what have you.  We had an AMAZING turnout last holiday season, and we’re hoping to replicate it this year!

I would also like to give a warm welcome to a new moderator for this event, @i-want-my-iwtv.  Thank you so much for your help!

Where did the idea of vampires having balls actually come from? Like what started that… “I’m a bloodsucking creature of the night; I feel like dressing fabulous and going to mingle in high society!”

trashcanamerica:

when i read this i thought by “balls” you meant “testicles” and i just sat here for like two minutes thinking about why vampires having testicles is peculiar to you and why it means that they hang out with the upper class

GTA Vice City : San Francisco Edition – A slight recut of the final scene

YOU MAKE A GOOD POINT, HOW THE HELL DOES LESTAT KNOW HOW TO DRIVE??? DID HE HAVE TO GO TO DRIVERS’ ED? DID HE MAKE LOUIS TEACH HIM? HOW DID LOUIS LEARN? CAN ANY OF THEM DRIVE? DAVID, GABRIELLE AND LESTAT ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT DO IN THE BOOK, OH MY GOSH I NEED TO KNOW.

Well somewhere in the series – I think TVL? – Lestat says that vampiring makes learning things much faster, he learned to read and write just by watching the transcriber do it for him long enough. Same with technology and modern inventions.

In movie!IWTV, he was watching Daniel from the backseat for at least a mile or two before they got on the bridge.

That makes more sense, but its a lot less entertaining than thinking about them wrecking their way through the cities trying to drive.

Yep, I made this
gif set thinking “oh, it would be fun if Lestat drove and reacted like a GTA’s
player”. I’m very surprised, and most of all delighted, that it’s
generating so many constructive
reactions. You’re amazing, people of the vc fandom, and it’s always a pleasure to read you!

Remember how I said that Lestat and Claudia’s final conversation was my 2nd favorite scene from the movie. Well everyone, this is it. My favorite scene from the Interview with the Vampire movie and there are so many reasons why. Some of them are mentioned above like: how the hell does Lestat even know how to drive??? but what really gets me is that Lestat was like camping out in this guys car the whole damn movie. He was just sitting there as Louis dictated his life to Daniel and restrained himself from jumping into the room and saying ‘EXCUSE ME THAT IS NOT HOW IT HAPPENED LOUIS.’ and then proceeding to tell the nice man the REAL story. Seriously what is going through Lestat’s head this entire scene? I don’t know but I need someone to write something on it. Frankly this is one of the most ridiculous and funny scenes in the movie but for all its OOC-ness I can’t say with a clear conscious that it wasn’t immensely amusing to watch.

^Yes, #fanfic request or #fanart request. I bolded what we need. Someone plz feel free to #DO THE THING.

i-want-my-iwtv:

IKR?? I know it’s just a dude throwing grapes at another dude BUT THERE IS SMTG ABOUT IT OK. SMTG CAPTIVATING. Maybe bc it’s kind of the opposite of what sexay vampires should EVER DO? Maybe bc neither one of them can eat grapes?? It’s inexplicable.

Louis has perfected near zen-like patience bc honestly LESTAT HAS DONE SO MUCH WORSE TO HIM AND REACTING ONLY ENCOURAGES MORE.

And the calmer reactions:

#True facts.

#Accurate. 

They’re only bothering to pretend bc in the books Lestat’s dad was living with them at the time. And he WAS BLIND SO THEY PRETENDED TO EAT DINNER WITH HIM FOR SOME SENSE OF NORMALCY.
