“How to describe what humans look like to us! … you can’t imagine what it’s like for us to look on living flesh. There are those billions of colors and tiny configurations of movement, yes, that make up a living creature on whom we concentrate.

But the radiance mingles totally with the carnal scent. Beautiful, that’s what any human being is to us, if we stop to consider it, even the old and the diseased, the downtrodden that one doesn’t really “see” in the street. They are all like that, like flowers ever in the process of opening, butterflies ever unfolding out of the cocoon.“ 

The Vampire Lestat

I love this quote bc it means that just being alive makes us ALL beautiful.

Happy Father’s Day! In two ways I guess. Thank you for everything in my mortal life, and my immortal one.

♛ You wonderful creature, you’ve always deserved it all and more, mon bijou *embraces and showers her with kisses*

Does anyone call you by any cute nicknames?

I suppose it’s hard to nickname someone when they only have a one syllable name. And I hate when people try and give me flower nicknames. Never, ever, try and do that. I am not your little ‘rosebud’ who is ready to be ‘plucked’. Ugh, even mentioning it makes me sick.

Beej calls me doll. Bianca calls me her star. Antoine calls me dove. I’m not really sure what I’ve done to deserve these, but I’ll take them.

What about you Lestat? Do you have any nicknames for me?

Oh, and Daniel calls me Chickpea.

♛Well, a nickname isn’t always a shortening of one’s name… although I’m often called ‘Stat, which I find very amusing, as it’s also the abbreviation for statim, Latin for “immediately”, used in the medical field (have I been in hospitals and heard this called out, and thought it was someone trying to get my attention? Hmmmm? Maybe!), but I digress, this is about you, darling ❤

I hadn’t heard those nicknames for you! Daniel’s very good, I’m changing your name in my phone to Chickpea. Too cute not to.

I don’t think I ever called you by any floral nicknames, but I completely agree with your reasons for detesting them. I don’t like being called Blondie, which Armand does to irritate me, and it raises my ire without fail EVERY TIME HE DOES IT. 

When you were a little girl, I called you variations on précieux and mon bijou, do you remember?

//I can’t believe I’m only now coming to the realization that Rose hates flower nicknames because of acid-man. He’s the one who calls her that, and though Lestat also calls her a ‘flower’, it rings differently for Rose.

“I take Holy Communion,” whispered Gardner as he kissed her, “my innocent one, my sweet and gentle one, my flower.”

ooc; I still can’t believe Rose dated a guy whose name was one letter away from being fucking Gardener.
