I love how active this blog is. I love how active this fandom is. It makes my heart warm

Awww, thank you! That’s very kind of you. (I was hoarding this ask for a few days, sorry for the delay in reply.)

It warms my heart to see the fandom active, too! It’s always been waves of more or less engagement, but recently there does seem to be something of a renaissance. If the VCTV series happens, we’ll probably have even more engagement!

#InktoberVC and the @vcsecretgifts exchange both stimulated great fanworks, I’m planning on setting aside a chunk of time to go through and reblog those Dec. gifts here (I haven’t had a chance to read all the fics yet!) ❤ I’m hoping that more calls for fanworks get rolling in 2018, too, and I’ll make an effort to promote them. We can’t wait 9 months until the next #InktoberVC ;D

In this world in a time when we’re on the brink of nuclear war bc of reasons I can’t attempt to tackle on a blog for entertainment and there are people in power tirelessly dedicated to stripping away our rights one by one, people

determined to widen the class divide, people dehumanizing other real life people, and there is unpunished crime on a daily basis, I come here for an escape and to offer the same to anyone who likes this blog. 

I hope 2018 is a better year for all of us, online and offline, Anon. *hugs*

I love your blog!! I check it everyday and it’s always great!!

Merci beaucoup! Every day?? *hugs tightly*

I just said this but it bears repeating: I love the idea of this thing being part of someone’s daily routine BC IT IS CERTAINLY PART OF MINE and someone out there ought to be as attached to it as I am #no regerts. So the feels, they are mutual, and

I’ll try to keep up the quality you’ve come to expect *u* 

this is previous anon and wow, that answer (as anticipated) is really detailed! i’m not super-educated on the points you gave, and i really am sorry for lashing out; parts of the post that incited my anon aggression rubbed me the wrong way, but you definitely managed to clear up a lot of issues i wasnt even aware of and were as always eloquent and honest. i hope i alone didnt change your policy, as that wasn’t my intention at all, i was just bothered by some of the hyperbole i guess. sorry ;_;

THANK GOODNESS you’re back and you’re responding so rationally! See? More info is the cure for jumping to conclusions. I’m glad that I was able to clear up a lot of the issues in my usual eloquent and honest way ;]

You’re forgiven for lashing out. Hyperbole is out there in the world, take this as a learning experience to not let it rile you so easily.

And it took me at least 3 hours to write that reply so it’s even better to know it was worth it.

Next time, message me privately, rather than lash out creepily on Anon. 


Yes, you did change my policy, for the better. This instance was the last straw after a few prior attempts to “call me out” on things. It reminded me that this should be fun for me, I’m not paid to do it, I have no obligation to anyone (aside from the Tumblr guidelines of appropriate use). I try to make sure my facts are correct before stating anything definitive, and I admit when I don’t know smtg.

However, few ppl would come back and admit that they were a little hasty before, so that is much appreciated. Thanks for doing that. It was a huge relief. 

When smtg upsets you, first do some introspection, why are you letting this rile you? Then, calmly, do some investigation and/or ask for info in a respectful way.

Is this the right way for the mistletoe kissing-thing? You deserve more than only one kiss !!! ;-) 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

♛Merci beaucoup, ten kisses! I accept them all under the condition that nine are different types, and the tenth is the kiss I must have a repeat experience of.

((ooc; sorry this is super late, and not sure if it was meant for mun or muse, but he jumped on the response sooo… but thank u! Much appreciate))

💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

Christmas Mistletoe.

Reblog and see who leaves you a kiss in your ask box. 😉

♛Merci, merci! Yes, Louis, see? It was worth hanging an entire BOUQUET of this stuff *nods sagely*

Also, I adore your blog! <3 It was what finally pushed me to stop staring at the VC books on my shelf and actually pick them up and order some more. So thank you and stay awesome! :)

Aw thank u so much! ♥u♥

Please keep us posted on your thoughts as u progress, altho we all love these stories, we can never quite recapture the thoughts and feels we had when we first read them. And I’m telling you, you will probably enjoy my crazy more when you know the series better.

Note also: I’m tagging this #Free VC Advertising, which is my new tag for posts in which ppl tell me they’re reading/buying the VC bc they were inspired to do so by my blog. This will help protect the blog in the event that *someone* wants to take it down (on the grounds that it’s detrimental to the sales of the VC).

If people are inspired by this blog enough to read/buy the books, well, then I’d say it’s doing the exact opposite, it’s PROMOTING the series! 

Best. Blog. Ever!!!!!! You’re an awesome person and I’m glad you’re here👻

Mon Dieu such high praise! Best blog EVER? Thank u, much appreciate, it always feels good to know my mere presence is wanted *u* btw top secret but i may be considering doing some videos of myself so u can see me in the flesh stay tuned….

Just wanted to say that you have an amazing blog! When I first finished IWTV and TVL I feared any fandom that had grown out of these amazing books had long since died. Low and behold this amazing blog turned up on the first google search! I’ve never seen such a positive and artistically gifted fandom with such a nice and thoughtful mod. Thank you for really spreading the love!

Merci beaucoup mon pamplemousse!  Welcome to our little corner of tumblrland ^______^

What a lovely thing to say *flails* Hard to believe this blog is a top google result, that is some kind of accomplishment indeed! The truth is that the VC fandom has been alive and well for a looooong time, but hiding from the light of day due to AR’s war on fanfic during the 90′s. We’ve all slowly come up out of the woodwork and Prince Lestat encouraged even more of us to step into the light, it ushered in the fresh blood, too: ppl who had seen one of the movies or read a few of the books AND NOW WE ARE ALL FRICKIN’ GATHERING HERE. TOGETHER AT LAAAAAST.

We really do have some unbelievably talented VC fanartists, writers, thinkers, RPers, cheerleaders, musicians (yes musicians, too!), etc. I consider myself an addict of all of it, and I curate it all so we can all squee over it, be inspired by each other, and most importantly, MAKE MOAR. 

What a great platform this is, with the ease of fanwork sharing, whether it’s fanmix, fanart, fanfic, meta discussion, RP, VC news linkage, and so much more. What an incredible time to join the fandom, right when it’s having its greatest renaissance in the fandom’s history ❤ 

Messages like yours keep this blog a-thrive. See what I did there? omg i am the Queen of Cheese. WHATEVER IT’S CUTE AS HELL & I AM CUTE AS HELL

lestatemperorofthedead, What a lovely message! *flails*

♥u♥ ONE OF US ONE OF US (Apparently we’re calling ourselves Children of Darkness now, btw)

(BTW our mutual facepalming over Lestat was probably about this post)

Yes yes, memeything/fanart/fanfic/fanwork inspiration is, in actuality, the highest compliment to this blog, bc that’s REALLY what I do it for. When I started this thing there was fanwork but it was (and still is) all over the interwebs, and in my opinion there is not enough of it there is NEVER enough of it, so I wanted to have a collection of it for everyone’s enjoyment/inspiration, and a good resource for the fresh stuff, too 😀

Wow, your journey to VC is so touching, that our precious Sheeps shepherded you to us, was it this fanart of 

Tonio Treschi?

You read Cry to Heaven –> saw sheepskeleton‘s fanart of it > sheepskeleton‘s fanart lead you here > now you’re one of us!! 

#I love these kind of stories, and we (I’m sure I speak for others, too) enjoy your presence here. Great url, btw! He is Emperor of the Undead, lol. 

I enjoyed Cry to Heaven, I don’t remember it very well, should reread it. I seem to recall that the main character reminded me of Armand.
