Much to the chagrin of the Vatican: We possess the alleged Veronica’s Veil.
A rather priceless item in terms of its value, if indeed there proves to be any true authenticity to it. Verification will provide evidence to the existence of several entities all at once. We could hardly resist laying hands upon it. Otherwise, it might end up with all the other religious relics that the Vatican has locked away.
Personal fantasy: Printing out a hundred (or so) of those Talamasca cards the wonderful fans make and randomly handing them out/leaving them tucked in quiet places for fellow VC/Mayfair fans to find.
So now I’m picturing the magical world as being like modern academia, where there are 15,000 specialty journals (“the shorter the title, the higher the ranking!” “Ugh i can’t *believe* that prick is ranking editor of Black Magic“ "She got a sole author article in Black Arts? So what its a fucking regional journal.” “Omg you got a publication in Sorcery?!”) and these are the special editions that get published once a year.
"It’s a quarterly, and my favorite issue is ‘Witches Destroy Black Magic’— I’m so into Identity Sorcery.”
“Did you see the latest article on Transdimensional Alchemy? I have such a research boner for that Warlock. His metatextual approach is just amazing."
"I’m in full support of Transdimensional Alchemy as an abstract concept, but in practice I think it is problematic in its preference of gold to any and all other precious metals, especially when there are others that are FAR more useful in overall metaphysical to physical transition."
"You post-Merlin metaphysicists are all the same, always lumping all Alchemy in with the gold standard tradition and ignoring the last 3 decades of work in renewable metals and the Green Transformation movement."
"Except for that fact that Green Transformation is still a teleological view of magic; recognizing the fracturing of mystoriographies is essential to more fully understanding not where we are going, but how we are going. It is not only in the magic, but in the casting."
//100% yes. This is the beginning of half of their trouble. Just think, if you could meet your OTP, what might happen?
Just imagine 30 pages of elaborate essays on why one pairing is more canon than another with hundreds of references throughout the different books
//OMG No stop, that’s hilarious. Because I’m pretty sure you are correct. They probably have whole sections of the vampire division dedicated to all of this. Long charts of who has fucked who over the centuries…
SPOILER: all lines just lead to Lestat.

^True facts.
And how psyched was David to get added to that tracking document?! He would never admit to it but you know, deep down, he fangirled over himself/Lestat. At some point. Probably.
