Snazzy….
Agreed…

I have a non vc related question, sort of: You make a lot of reaction gifs and I see that you put your url name on them – BUT, just to check, is it okay to use your gifs as reaction images in posts/asks, and if yes should I credit you in my post/tags? I just want to be respectful since I know making these gifs takes work! Thanks in advance for your answer. =)
Sure, go right ahead and use whatever you like!
I put my url on them knowing that they’d be downloaded and reposted, it’s a way to keep the source intact ;] tho if u notice I don’t add it on some that I think either push the envelope of offensiveness too far or I feel like I didn’t really add enough to claim them as “mine.”
But yes, it would be gr9 if you tag me when you use them, just add a little [i-want-my-iwtv] below them, bc then I’ll see it in my activity feed, and can see it in your post. It’s really fun to see these things in different contexts. A tag would be nice, too, as #iwantmyiwtv or #i-want-my-iwtv.
Obviously, it would be best if people who want to use my works use them as reaction gifs only, and not simply repost on a new post… but I can’t stop that from happening, so I can’t really get upset if it happens. It means too much to me to be able to share these things freely, so it’s a risk I’m willing to take. I’m sure it’s happened already *shrugs*

(Lestat’s all I DO EXIST GDI WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR U PPL TO BELIEVE IN ME FFS)
I just talked to my friends about another fandom and they went like that one character is just a bitch and they named 5 persons the character had something going on with and I was there with Lestat like: oh you beautiful cinnamon rolls…:’D
… if you are implying Lestat is a much bigger bitch and has something going on with tons of other characters…
pssssst, you’re absolutely right.
That manga fanart you posted, the artist has a tumblr and it looks like some of it is loosely translated. The url is nowordnolife.
This manga is the content of the unofficial fanbook issued by me in 2013.
This book,titled “Don Giovanni”,is Japanese only, but I tried to English translation. So sorry about my poor English.The second half is coming soon. I’m translating the part into English now…
I need you, Louis. I want you to love me more. Please take your eyes off her once in a while, look at me, mon cher…! ;A;
Hi, I’m kinda new to that fandom and not very far into the books. Can I ask why we don’t talk about Dora?
I think I can guess who you are! You really like looking for buttons to push, don’t you? Very Lestat of you ;] I won’t tell.
It’s not a fandom law that we don’t talk about Dora, it’s sort of one of our inside jokes, like the fact that Lestat only writes with Wordstar even now.
I don’t reeeeeally want to spoil you, but you can probably already guess what happened between them. Dora and Lestat shared a very intimate experience in Memnoch the Devil that had not occurred in canon before, and has not happened since, but it’s a situation that anyone interested in vampires might have wondered about before. Lestat was very tired, it had been a long trip, and Dora was happy to console him in this *very special* way.
There were alot of mixed reactions to it, if you want to be spoiled, you can read my #Dora tag, or hit the jump.
So I don’t deny that it was gross and bizarre but I think of this scene – at certain monthly intervals – and consider it from her perspective. She seemed to like it. He seemed to like it. It went from dubcon to consensual in about 3 seconds… and she seemed empty afterwards?? He actually might have saved her a few $ on feminine products?? SUCH A GENTLEMAN.
lestatemperorofthedead, What a lovely message! *flails*
♥u♥ ONE OF US ONE OF US (Apparently we’re calling ourselves Children of Darkness now, btw)
(BTW our mutual facepalming over Lestat was probably about this post)
Yes yes, memeything/fanart/fanfic/fanwork inspiration is, in actuality, the highest compliment to this blog, bc that’s REALLY what I do it for. When I started this thing there was fanwork but it was (and still is) all over the interwebs, and in my opinion there is not enough of it there is NEVER enough of it, so I wanted to have a collection of it for everyone’s enjoyment/inspiration, and a good resource for the fresh stuff, too 😀
Wow, your journey to VC is so touching, that our precious Sheeps shepherded you to us, was it this fanart of
Tonio Treschi?
You read Cry to Heaven –> saw sheepskeleton‘s fanart of it > sheepskeleton‘s fanart lead you here > now you’re one of us!!
#I love these kind of stories, and we (I’m sure I speak for others, too) enjoy your presence here. Great url, btw! He is Emperor of the Undead, lol.
I enjoyed Cry to Heaven, I don’t remember it very well, should reread it. I seem to recall that the main character reminded me of Armand.
I’m sorry to bother you, but I’m honestly curious about your opinion: do you think sunblock would work for vampires? (Silly question, I know, but I love reading your responses on things like this. Also, sorry if you’ve already answered a question similar to this one. ^^”)
Not a bother at all I LOVE being asked things and I do make an effort to answer bc honestly who wants to read a boring “Yes” or “No” like, no that’s boring bye. And, no, I don’t think I’ve answered this before so here we go…
Some vampires probably could do it with just sunscreen. Part of the difference is whether they can even be conscious during daylight hours. Mostly it’s due to their unique physiology. I could write an essay on this so I’m gonna keep it to 4 vampire types.
1. Meet Joe Black Deacon Frost, vampire from Blade, slathered up in sunscreen:
Well, Blade calls it sunblock, but same thing. It’s working for Frost in this scene (and I think he’s put it in his hair to cover his scalp, too, hence the greasiness), but as he says to Blade, “It’s a start, right? The goal, of course, is to be like you. Daywalker.” (Blade himself is a hybrid vampire so he can go out in the sunlight.) The rest of Frost’s skin is covered up with clothing which may also be treated in some way to protect him but his eyes aren’t protected, they should be affected but maybe it’s only light-sensitivity of the skin in that type of vampire.
For more, hit the jump.
2. This is Adam from Only Lovers Left Alive, getting a burn from sunlight:
Adam and Deacon share the ability to be awake during daylight hours. So it’s possible that Adam could wear sunscreen for protection, but given such a harsh physical reaction to such a small amount of exposure, I wouldn’t think any strength or amount of sunscreen would be strong enough for him, even if he was able to cover every last bit of skin, which would be a real challenge.
3. Louis de Pointe du Lac from movie!IWTV can’t handle the sunlight, but he’s fully conscious, reaching up to try protect himself.
Sunscreen might work for movie!Louis, too, but he would have the same issue as Adam, could he cover enough skin to make it work? I doubt it.
4. Louis and Claudia from book!IWTV fall into the Death Sleep during the day. They cannot be conscious during daylight hours, their physiology prevents it. So sunscreen, or other protective gear, would not work for them.
[fanart by Mangademon333]
The Death Sleep is basically the unconscious state that the Ricean vampires succumb to when their bodies sense the sun rising, and they only break out of it when the sun sets again or they’re under attack. There’s also fanon that they can wake from the Death Sleep during the day when under extreme emotional distress. Even defending themselves in their sleep, they’re not really conscious and only realize what happened when they wake normally. Lestat says in TVL:
And those mortals who did find us during the daylight hours, unless they exposed us to the sun at once, were doomed. For example, outside Palermo [Gabrielle] had slept in a cellar far below an abandoned house, and when she had awakened, her eyes and face were burning as if they had been scalded, and she had in her right hand a mortal, quite dead, who had apparently attempted to disturb her rest.
“He was strangled,” she said, “and my hand was still locked on his throat. And my face had been burned by the little light that leaked down from the opened door.”

replied to your post “Have you ever considered Louis asexual as a mortal?”
“HAVE YOU SEEN THE HIGHER QUALITY ONES LESTAT HIRES?” I’M DEAD
LIKE C’MON LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE:
Louis’ cheap whore with cheap makeup and sour disposition:
Lestat’s high quality whore with charming hairdo and attitude:
Lestat’s high quality sassy whore trying to sell them poisonous beverages:
Lestat’s are so good he has to box them and save them for later:
ok I’ve made my point ;D
