Ah yes compliments are always welcome! Thank u *hugs*
Fanfic?? there’s no such thing as VC fanfic… pfffft. What are you crazy honestly??!
^Lestat is laughing bc he knows I is sarcastic.

The thing about VC fanfic is that we still have to be sort of careful about sharing it bc of reasons. Even so, I feel compelled to give you something. And again, I try not to play favorites *sigh* but in the case of fanfic, I can be a little more lenient and rec a few things out ^_____^ The following content is slightly revised from how I answered an Ask seeking fanfic awhile back.
has one of the highest hit counts. L/L lovey fluff *blushes* so maybe start there, but A Precious Material is probably one of my own faves.
Archive of Our Own (aka AO3) has a mission statement about protecting fanworks from copyright infringement arguments, so I feel pretty safe recc’ing stuff that’s on there but dL anything you like, just in case, bc authors also sometimes remove their works w/o warning.
Hit the jump for some reccs
Carriage Ride was a collab I did w/ 3 other authors, and is very short but sweet L/L.
Gulfport: A British Petroleum Fanfic (Part One) by hw_campbell_jnr – There are 2 parts and it’s incomplete but this is devastatingly beautiful long!fic. Hipster modern Lestat and Louis, both going by pseudonyms, politics woven in, it’s just too good. It annoys me how good it is. I am annoyed. I would be less annoyed if it were COMPLETED *forcibly nudges the author*
The Grim Brothers by Rebness – incomplete but it’s a fun little werewolf AU! I hope the author picks it up again someday *forcibly nudges the author*
Nearly 100% positive that @sheepskeleton is an actual 14th century vampire and @i-want-my-iwtv is an actual vampire scholar/Talamasca/X-Files Agent/Whatever supernatural research center she’s keeping secret.
oh no, why.. would.. you… even… think… that?
I knew my face is not going to pass for a human in this damned century. What betrayed me?
-detailed knowledge of ancient history (so you’re probably older than my original guess)
-adoration for things that evoke strong mental reactions (gorgeous cityscapes, powerful pics of nature, luxuary fashion that emulates previous eras…)
-insane levels of attention to detail in works of art.
-unearthly outer beauty and genius-level intellect along with being artistically talented beyond belief.
Definitely a vampire.
No ok but this is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever heard??? I seriously do not deserve such compliments and also delivered in such a way, I am melting
@sheepskeleton is a vampire, confirmed. I know this bc… I am her MAKER.
damn bro am i not cool enough?? lmao just kidding!
here are some blogs that reblog a bunch of iwtv stuff. i’m not sure about the others, but the first two make gifsets, sometimes photosets, text posts etc 🙂
1. Watching people and animals dance, and occasionally I have been known to join in.
2. RETAIL THERAPY (I don’t have to buy anything I mostly just like trying stuff on and my retail stamina is legendary; I can outshop pretty much anyone provided I have coffee boosters). I especially love trying on hideous things and making ppl laugh at how NOONE could make the outfit look good.
3. PHYSICAL CARDS IN THE MAIL WRITTEN BY HAND ❤ Bonus points for stickers or other decorations on the envelope. I like making and sending these, too.
4. I like the writing prompts I was getting for a hot minute there, and I am working on filling one.
5. I like crossing things off my massive To Do list. TBH I like adding things to it, too. It makes me happy to know I’m irreplaceable ❤
Merci beaucoup! Never too late for birthday wishes ;D It was 3/16 but the confusion is my own frickin’ fault for letting many lovely messages get buried in my inbox, so I’m the tardy one, replying nearly 4 months late *gasp* *swats self w/ rolled-up magazine*
Thank u! It was indeed, i had aspartame poured on me for one thing… ok not really but whatever i was inspired to make this for ya and anyway i do drink a truckload of aspartame on a weekly basis so it counts.
Thanks! Yep, the VC fandom is out here on tumblr, and we’re growing in number. Especially as the next book(s) and new adaptation(s) approaches down the pipeline. More VC blogs are in my #VC Fandom Hunters tag.
Keep in mind book!QOTD is very different from the movie. Be sure to come back and share your perspective on that. Most ppl who read the book first are not too thrilled with the movie, except for nostalgic reasons, I’m not sure about ppl who read the book after.
Re: book!IWTV, Lestat doesn’t really approve of THAT version of the story, lol. So try to stick with the series at least through TVL.
