Interview With A Vampire
Louis: I’ve fucked shit up. I’ve fucked shit up so fucking badly. Oh, my God.
Lestat: It’s really fun to fuck shit up, isn’t it?

The Vampire Lestat
Lestat: Louis, you fucking got shit wrong.
Lestat: Now, let me tell you how I began to fuck shit up.

The Queen of the Damned
Lestat: Wow. Everyone has fucked up shit.

The Tale of the Body Thief
Louis: ESPECIALLY YOU, LESTAT.

Memnoch the Devil
The Devil: Hey, I’ve fucked shit up, too.

The Vampire Armand
Armand: You’ve all fucked up shit. /facepalm/

Blood and Gold
Marius: I don’t fuck shit up, everyone else does.

demonpyromaniac:

i’m laughing my ass off at how accurate this is!

Regarding VC crack!fic: Such Truth, Wow, Very Accurate

hyperbeeb:

Sometimes I wonder why there’s not tons and tons of VC crack!fic and then I remember that large portions of the book are basically crack!fic

#seriously though

#remember that time lestat got louis some hookers to eat as an apology for being a douche

#remember that time armand stole someone’s hands as punishment

#remember that time lestat took louis to go terrorize and old man and then buy louis a coat

#remember that time david broke into lestat and louis’ house and demanded they go to the carnival

#remember that time lestat mentioned he could laugh at carpet for hours on end

#remember that time marius sent armand on fieldtrips to local brothels

#remember that time louis said he was feeling suicidal so david proposed vampire sex and made out with him

#remember that time tarquin got a handjob from his dead demonic twin brother he ate in utero

#remember that time armand thought marius was jesus and then marius gave him a handjob

#REMEMBER BLOOD CANTICLE IN ITS ENTIRETY

#does it make it harder or easier to write crack when your fandom is canonically this cracky

#its a moot point since theres so few vc fics anyway

#generally homosexual

merciful-death: [[ I can’t stop laughing at the tags.  You are a beautiful person. ]]

#also remember that one time lestat had sex with a nun and ate a chick out on her period in front of david and armand

#and that one time armand would make daniel have sex with random people so he could watch from the corner

#or that time pandora told marius that his vampire gift should have give him a bigger penis rather than a bigger ego

#what a wonderful series

elurins added: 

I just laughed really obnoxiously oh my fucking god those tags.

Blood Canticle is just something I pretended didn’t happen though omfg it was so, so, so bad. it was a bad crack fic in itself omfg

#the vampire chronicles #this fucking series man oh my god

Cloudsinvenice added:

Guys, it is a crime and a sin that the reblog process has cut off the entire tag list, because the canon in the VC is far weirder than the crack in most other fandoms. Seriously, go read the whole thing in its surreal beauty. 

#what happens in venice stays in venice  #vampire chronicles  #handjobs are the vampire handshake  #apparently 

demonpyromaniac added:

We all like to pretend that didn’t happen. It wasn’t even a bad crack fic that was hilariously bad either.

#crack #blood canticle #that book was so bad omg

[[Clouds, I had to restore this fabulous thread in its surreal beauty bc the link u had was broken. i didn’t include tags from reblogs w/out comments, but whatever, this was WELL WORTH THE EFFORT]]

#ACCURATE #Reblogging for the tags and comments. #This is definitely one of my All Time Favorite VC discussion posts ever and I’m not even part of it. #bc it is Perfection

#Gold star for this #Golden Moment

I had a crush on Tom Cruise because of this movie.

(Unfortunate decisions by tall brunettes! I feel you Katie Holmes.)

But look, I couldn’t help it. Lestat wasn’t just a snarky blond bisexual vampire who treated sacred vampire laws as skittles in the bowling alley of his life.

(VAMPIRE ELDERS: We claw our way from the grave promptly at—

LESTAT: What up, just out of my bed of silk and velvet. LADIES, THINK ABOUT SHOWERS.

VAMPIRE ELDERS: Here is the throne room of the king and queen of all vampires, preserved in silent immortality. Gaze upon them from a reverent distance.

LESTAT: I just made out with the vampire queen’s face.

VAMPIRE ELDERS: All vampires must be anonymous. Keep us secret, keep us safe.

LESTAT: I’ve become a rock star!!!)

He was also, as we see in this very gif set, an astute critic of the problem of vampire literature.

Lestat is, in many ways, basically an eternal teenager* (he’s like 20 but he totally was.) 

Vampire Elders: DO NOT DO THIS ONE THING ABOVE ALL.

Lestat: *does it* *DOES IT BIGGER*

Louis: Don’t you think maybe you shouldn’t do that….

LESTAT: *DOES IT IN YOUR FACE ON MTV* *DOES IT AND MAKES IT COOL*

Louis: *sigh* 

These books were my childhood. In retrospect, that probably explains a lot about me. 

*I mean that in the best way. Teenagers are awesome and trying to figure out themselves and the world, and Lestat was the same way.

Lestat Does the Thing: The Series

dreamlessmusic:

i-want-my-iwtv:

adirotynd:

  1. Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing: Make a Six-Year-Old into a Vampire
  2. Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing: Be Famous
  3. Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing: Wake the Mother of All Vampires and Honeymoon with Her While She Slaughters Thousands
  4. Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing: Be Human While Some Random Dude Takes Your Superman Body for a Spin

#accurate. Notice how this list stops at Tale of the Body Thief bc Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing actually gets so much crackier that it may not be possible to capture in synopsis. I’ll try tho:

Spoilers under the cut…

5. Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing: Go to Heaven and Hell on Job Interview, it’s All Fun and Games until Someone Loses an Eye.

6. Lestat and Don’t Do the Thing: My Name is Armand and I am a Sex Addict, Etc. Also, Marius Totally Abandoned Me and He Sucks.

This is so fucking accurate that it hurts. Because you can’t stop laughing and so your belly starts to ache and you can’t breathe and you make unproper noises trying to contain yourself, but you just can’t ‘cause it’s too damn funny.

But, yeah, poor Lestat. Always fucking up things. Well, at least for 3 books he wasn’t the one doing it. This is a comforting thought. He’s still a lost case though.

*cries* ^This kind of reaction is the reason I do this.
