☜ – when your character sees themselves in the mirror, what do they see? how do they see themselves

viaticumforthemarquise:

I typically do not live anywhere where I have access to mirrors, nor do I go to any extreme to attempt to see my reflection. 

But, the world being what it is, I am once in a while in a position to catch a glimpse of myself in the glass. 

What do I see?

I see what I am sure many others see: a woman, older but of indeterminate age (the dark gift altered the ability to see me for the age I was when I died, though it is obvious that I am not as young as many of the others), with a mass of blonde hair, with blue (sometimes violet, sometimes grey) eyes, and small, kittenish (to borrow Lestat’s words) features. 

I see my brother’s hair.  

I see my father’s chin. 

I see my mother’s fine cheekbones. 

I see my son. Always. 

I see my daughter. 

And then I pass on. 

;A; we all know that 8th child was a daughter!

  • “I was the seventh son and the youngest of the three who had lived to manhood” = there were 7 sons
  • “And now, after eight children, three living, five dead," 

That 8th child could have been a daughter. What are the odds for it being another son?

☤ What do you have in common with your muse? Also, what would you ask your muse if you were allowed just one question? And not, Make me a vampire, dammit! We all know he doesn’t like being asked for that.

ooc; UHH, FOR ANOTHER THING IN COMMON, I guess we both say “I see” a lot?  DOES THAT COUNT?  Well, and we’re perfectionists.

I’d not ask to be made a vampire anyway.  I’d make a horrible vampire.  I catch and release flies because I’m incapable of killing literally anything.

I’d probably ask him to bone Lestat in front of me, tbh.

In The Queen of the Damned Lestat did appear on film so if vampires can have photos taken I will bet you $20 Lestat eventually adapts to take surprise selfies with Louis, then put them all together to make a half-assed video using Windows Movie Maker with the music being A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. He forces Louis to watch it with him.

He’s so damn pleased with himself.

He doesn’t just do this to Louis. Let us not speak about last Christmas. 

The coven submits to participating in Lestat’s “films” to avoid his tantrums at any resistance. The finished products are occasionally humorous if only bc it’s obvious that he’s the only one really having fun. 

Of course his collection of surveillance footage is a different story…

People make jokes about Twilight and what Edward does when Bella is on her period but during the vampire chronicles by Anne Rice in Memnoch the Devil that literally happens and nobody says a thing

Cause we are trying to forget it.

mon dieu we are trying SO HARD to forget this… and even worse, this is probs not the first time Lestat has done it, and he’s probs not the first vampire to try it.
