Who is your favorite VC character and why? (Mine is Lestat :D)

Short answer: S A M E here.

Long answer: SAAAAAAAAME HEEEEEEERE. It wasn’t always this way. I had a mother once wtf self? I still do. And movie!Louis, he had a wife. He was mortal, the same as she, and SO WAS I. 

AR made us what we are, didn’t she? *sobs*

I digress… lol… 

I answered this a little differently awhile back, when sonicdreamworld asked me who my fave was in IWTV alone. I think Claudia drew me into the whole series, I identified with her first bc I was 11, and felt mature for my age, and wanted to be taken seriously, and all that frustration that goes along with that. I was obsessed with antagonists at that point in my reading life, so I of course loved the friction between Lestat and everyone Claudia. 

In TVL Lestat had me at Hello, the little bastard. So many of his character traits were in line with mine (tactlessness, infallible optimism, hawtness, etc.), I felt I’d found my spirit animal. So much the better that other people feel this way about him, too! I feel a definite connection with others who have, for better or worse, laid their affections with him ❤ 

Like Louis, for example, you know Lestat is his fave, too!

Who’s your favourite charactor of IWTV, mine is Santiago, it’s bad that he isn’t that much in the movie cause he’s awesome.

Y’know I have to give you some credit for choosing Santiago bc he does not get nearly enough attention. Yes he’s a terrible, awful, monster, but he was a great character, a fantastic actor, a cruel antagonist… it takes some effort to be that evil!

I suspect and there is a secret fanfic that supports this theory that Santiago considered himself 2nd-in-command and maybe more to Armand, and he felt himself very usurped when Louis came into the picture, and had it in for Louis from the first moment Armand made heart-eyes at Louis. 

Santiago deserved some decent backstory.

MY favorite character of IWTV… that’s tough. In terms of the movie I think all of the actors (even Antonio!!!) did a fantastic job with their roles. I’d go with Claudia only because she was just the perfect mix of sweetness and icy screamy-ness and just had Louis wrapped around her little finger.

In book!IWTV it’s Lestat who’s my fave… How can you not love him with this combination (and more!) of character traits: Charismatic, mixing silly with sinister, mysteriously hinting at a rich and traumatic backstory (which we definitely got later), and of course, lastly, intensely handsome.
