Out of all the vampire characters in The VC series which vampire would you say is the most dangerous most capable of taking a human’s life? If I were walking home from work or from a college class at night, which vampire do I not want following me and which vampire do I not want to encounter?

Most dangerous vampire? Following/encountering you at night?

Most of the VC vampires choose victims who are “Evildoers,” people who have committed crimes against their fellow man and seem like they will continue to do so. Examples: drug dealers, an elderly abuser, “gangsters,” serial killers.

If you’re basically an innocent person*, most VC vampires won’t be interested in killing you. They’d rather just flirt with you, take you out dancing or something, and sneak in for a Little Drink, which can let them indulge in their preference for innocent blood and let you continue living, too 😉 Win-win!

*I mean, yeah, “Let he who is w/o sin cast the first stone” and all that, we all have our own share of “sins,” but if they don’t add up to Evildoer status, you’re an Innocent in VC terms.

As far as being KILLED, you can worry about: 

  • Louis, because as far as I know (at least up until PL), he doesn’t choose his victims based on guilt/innocence, he just takes whoever crosses his path when he’s out looking for dinner. The way to survive a Louis attack is to tell him about yourself; he doesn’t like to know ANYTHING about his victims. 
  • Claudia (back when she was around anyway), is a terror bc she enjoys taking innocent life. 
  • Nicolas and Antoine, I don’t know their preferences. They could go either way. 
  • Gabrielle probably doesn’t care about your guilt/innocence either, but might attack you if you were out in the wilds somewhere, maybe if you were going for the same deer that she was going for, too. She has no qualms about killing innocent people anywhere, tho. Her very first victim was innocent and she made no comment about it.  
  • Not sure about Pandora, IIRC, she ripped a heart out of a victim’s chest, I don’t think that victim was an evildoer.

I don’t know the PL or PLROA characters well enough to mention them but anyone is welcome to reblog/comment about those or any VC vampires in response to Anon’s question.

I just finished Merrick, and good Lord in heaven did I cry!! Why would she trick us like that?! First Armand and now Louis, what’s next! My heart can’t handle it, whatever it is

*hugs* I know your pain! Both were very hard things to put us through. I still remember how I felt when I first read *that part* in Merrick and I was like:

And then we didn’t even get the scene w/ Lestat… um… continuing to save the day night? C’MON.

(I still think Merrick would have been a far better story told from Merrick herself or Louis rather than being told to us through a 3rd wheel; oh well, it is what it is.)

BUT ANYWAY We have Louis back! I can’t see AR doing something like this to us again re: Louis or Armand bc the current trend is everybody getting along and living in peace, basically. I’m expecting more action from the Replimoids or the ghosts in the next book, or maybe a VC wedding between L/L like she’s teased before (and I only really want it if Lestat is a total bridezilla) but WHO KNOWS? 

So I don’t think she’s going to do anything like this again to our faves but clearly nothing is off-limits, no one is really safe, so we’ll all just have to wait ‘n seeeee and get each other through whatever it is…

IDK that AR herself considers Merrick to be canon bc it’s not in the Official VC FB banner (it’s a hybrid VC/Mayfair) so if you wanted to just not accept it as canon that’s fine, too.

“I’m still alive only I’m very badly burned…”

Lestat played by Will Ferrell… kinda sorta…

  • (Ferrell is actually Mustafa from Austin Powers, scene here)
  • Subtitles in the CC button

OMG. The drama! The pathos! Mr. Ferrell captures Lestat perfectly (wha…?). A cinematic masterpiece!

Thank you! Yes, let’s screentest Mr. Ferrell, surely with enough makeup he could achieve the right physical appearance? Lol…

firelight-fading:

I’m almost at 200 followers on this blog, a blog I opened up upon joining the VC fandom a little less than a year ago, and I just wanted to say, thank you.

This, by far, has been the best fandom community I’ve been a part of, and I’m really grateful for it. Sure, we sometimes have our disagreements and our fights, but when it comes down to it, they get solved or pushed aside for the sake of community well-bring. For the most part, most everyone that I have met has been very respectful of one another, or at they very least willing to learn from one another.
There are truly some talented, kind, and enthusiastic people in this fandom, which makes it all worthwhile. I am a part of other fandoms (seen on my main) that are not as blessed. I am a part of a fandom involved in heavy recent discourse, and others that remain partly dead despite having new material and new fans. It gets frustrating, but I know I can always come home to this fandom. I know the dynamic may change when the VC TV show is finally out, but I hope our community remains close to its core.

So, thank you again, and keep being you!
I intend to stick around for a very long time ❤
