I’ve seen some post about Rose Lioncourt, isn’t she like Lestat’s adopted daughter or something?

Yes, she is “like Lestat’s adopted daughter or something.” That’s probably the best description of her!

^She looks smtg like this: Flora and the Zephyrs [detail] by John William Waterhouse. [X]

My headcanon for kid!Rose:

image

^This smile, this is what Uncle Lestan would do just about anything for! Perform whole soliloquys while doing handstands, pretend the floor is lava, make silly noises, funny faces, anything. ❤ (This has nothing to do w/ her being Tom Cruise’s daughter; really! Physically, she’s my kid!Rose headcanon)

Spoilers ahead.


I don’t remember her childhood story too well, tagging @roselioncourt for that, but I think it was a rough childhood before she was rescued? I pictured her as unhealthfully slender during that time. Lestat rescued her and brought her to live with her new parental figures (two ladies, her “Aunts,” not sure whether they were also romantically involved w/ each other), and he checked in on her every so often, paid for everything, bc he is a philanthropist and loves kids.

Rose knew him as “Uncle Lestan” until her crappy professor boyfriend informed her of the VC, and exploded at her w/ an unnecessary amount of rage bc he thought she was making it up that she considered Lestat to not only be TOTES REAL but basically her loving benefactor! HOW DARE SHE SUUGEST SUCH A THING. Why couldn’t she just be a sexual object for her possessive boyfriend, and only speak to agree with or flatter him?? HOW DARE SHE be a person with her own life and backstory?? Pffft. <– sarcasm.

ANYWAY she and Lestat’s biological son end up growing close for shared connection to Lestat, and bc our series needed a het YA Twilight couple apparently. Eventually she becomes Lestat’s “real” daughter when her Dark Gift reception is poor and he has to step in and perform it properly bc of course he had to do it himself, “if you want smtg done right, gotta do it yourself.”

Perf time for Rose headcanon: Rose was chubby. Well, not fat, but with a kg or two fatter then the medium. And she is hella cute & cherubic

Ahhh, well, ALL kids are some degree of chubby if they’re healthy, that’s called baby fat! 

I don’t remember her childhood story too well, tagging @roselioncourt for that, but I think it was a rough childhood before she was rescued? I pictured her as unhealthfully slender during that time. But maybe when Lestat rescued her and brought her to live with her new parental figures, there could have been a time period in which she reveled in the treats and might have gotten a little more than healthy baby fat! 

Definitely hella cute & cherubic. At any size.

I didn’t see the Twilight movies well I’ve seen bits but not suffered through an entire movie on its own and Mackenzie Foy could have been a good kid!Rose.

^She got one of Uncle Lestan’s top hats and a new puppy.

^Another one of Uncle Lestan’s hats.

^Inquisitive nature. Uncle Lestan loved these kinds of pics, especially in daylight, when she seems oblivious to the camera, just letting nature charm her.

image

^Don’t keep her waiting if you said you were taking her to the playground. SERIOUSLY WE ARE ON A SCHEDULE HERE.


But I REALLY LOVE Suri Cruise as kid!Rose, too. 

image

^I think her eyes are blue, more blue than Mackenzie’s anyway. 

image

^”Oh nonono woman you did NOT just tell me they are out of black & white cookies. I would like to speak with your manager.” Suri has some attitude, she’s not just a pretty face. Uncle Lestan always said to speak up when you want something, people can’t read your mind…

^I really like this coat. Fake fur from Uncle Lestan, because she wanted a fur coat but stipulated that it couldn’t be real. She didn’t want to hurt any animals for it.

^Bc of reasons.

^She has serious stage presence already. And not afraid to wear fancy fabrics do you realize that that is EYELET?! You know how easy it is to ruin eyelet? VERY. And navy is a pretty mature color for a kid. She’s got her “uncle’s” fashion sense already ;]
