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 ❤

♛ Ten! Such limitations. Technically, adding ten to the previous five makes it fifteen, and really, that’s enough to share with the public. Some things I adore about him are inexplicable, and many things are too private to share. I’d love to tell you these of course, but bragging of such things is not worth the guaranteed retaliation for such a breach in our privacy.
So you want a wall of text? You shall have one, visage gris.
The bottom line is that Louis coaxes out a better version of myself. I don’t always do things for his approval but when I get validation from him it’s as if the sun has broken free from the clouds. I find relief in his gaze, in his arms. I want to give him everything. I hope that I mean a fraction of what he means to me.
1. His eyes: Let’s start with the obvious. I’ve often described his eye color, but what I mean to share here is about his eyes in their expressiveness. He can be vicious, he can cut me deeply with a glance. When he looks at me with lust, his pupils widen, leaving only slivers of the brilliant green. My surrender is inevitable. Of course I have to play it like I still have some autonomy, he can’t know that he has such an effect *winks*
2. The way he pleads with me not to do certain things that I am SURE will be worth the effort.
3. The way he trembles with rage rather than fight me because he is too much of a gentleman to lower himself to my level.
4. The way he says he told me sowhen I do things despite his advice and come crawling back to him.
5. The way he lets me apologize without degrading myself by literally apologizing.
6. The way his body seems to fit with mine in so many variations,
the way he collects himself beside me, tucking a leg underneath himself, like a panther. As if he were made for me. Fun fact: he was. (As if that needed to be said.)
7. The pride I have in him when he flexes his powers, which he does! Occasionally! He dislikes it the way mortals dislike the gym, but he’s always a little arrogant after accomplishing even the smallest thing (as are mortals leaving the gym). He’s learning to move things with his mind. Seeing his eyes light up as a vase scoots along the mantel is… it’s indescribable. I can barely contain myself from hurling myself on him and cuddling him to death at such times.
8. No one cries as beautifully as he does. Those eyelashes forming patterns wetly together… the red tinge bringing out the green of his irises even more than usual… I admit that I sometimes used to torment him into tears when I couldn’t draw the love from him I needed. That’s a bitter truth. I had issues of my own at the time. I don’t do that anymore, at least not deliberately. He cries now for different reasons, when he does at all.
9. His strength and beauty when he does fight me (or others) is mesmerizing; I think he knows it has that effect on me and uses it to his advantage.
10. His silhouette on the balcony w/ the lights of the street haloing him. Ethereal among the lush plants and night-blooming blossoms.
There you have it, fanged little trash monsters.hyperbeeb took one for the team, and reported back in one piece! From her commentary, I’d say few brain cells, if any, were sacrificed in the process.
(½) I was… not expecting such a response to my POTP question. I want to clarify first that I am grateful for your response. That I mean sincerely; I harbor no ill-will towards you, and nothing in this response is sarcastic. I’ve always had issue with anyone saying “People from X group are [negative remark here]” if I belong to said group. Thank you for reminding me that such statements can be general, rather than applying to everyone in said group. And I only knew about the fanfic thing –
(2/2) – and the fact that negative reviews of her work were brought up on her page; I didn’t know there were fans who attacked reviewers. The bullet point about the “Beauty’s Release” review sounds like she was being sincere that she didn’t want fans to attack the reviewer, and I don’t see any rabid rage in the comments, but I don’t doubt they did attack the reviewer in place(s) I didn’t see. I was completely unaware of the vast majority of what you included in your response. Sincerely, I thank you.
You are very welcome! What a gracious reply. Anon is referring to this post about the history of the People of the Page that I wrote (with the help of some fandom friends who did not want to be credited for obvious reasons) recently.
I’m very happy to answer questions when they are asked in a respectful manner, as this Anon did, and it’s even better when I have successfully convinced them of my point(s) let them draw their own conclusion(s) based on the information that I have, or what I can gather from the fandom at large who see/reblog-and-add-to my posts.
Heartfelt Thanks~*
…to all who saw that post and liked/reblogged, just to be supportive or to have that post available in case they needed to Explain Someone A Thing at some point. It touches me when you do that; it makes it worth the time and effort I put into gathering the facts and answering such delicate questions ^_______^
