How would you describe the personalities of the main characters (Lestat, Louis, Armand, Marius and David) and the relationships between each other.

Oh god that is too big an answer to try to tackle. I’d say read the Vampire Companion for that. 

In short though, if you want my opinion, I’d recommend you try my VC Synopsis tag, where you’ll find such gems as:

armandromanus:

lestat: *dramatizes*
louis: *angsts*
armand: *blends*

I want the next TVC book to include Daniel being like lol at everything and everyone’s crazy lives. I mean, Lestat and Louis are drama queens in their own ways [fire anyone?], and Armand is so lowkey shady yet loving that you never know what is going to happen. 

I feel like Marius sometimes just has no time to feel angst or boredom because he’s too busy keeping up with everyone else’s nonsense. And Daniel is off in a corner drinking while he works on a new book. 

PLEASE ANNE, MAKE DANIEL WRITE MORE BOOKS, THX ❤

^YES to all this.

I have been making this exact face literally all day. 

I am now just waiting to be brought wine.

Try some of this vintage:

#pls never resist because I died loling.

So like

basically everyone is undead up in here. 

PS: I went and got wine. Good for me.

was it the two of you guys who once spitballed what would happen if Tony Stark and Lestat met and that it would be a bad thing? cause that’s what I’m getting here XD

Yeah it was. They both love metal and capitalism. They’d both… strongly dislike literally everything else about each other. Their modes of peacocking are too mildly askew. 

Now I have this image of them onstage together, doing a cover of Springsteen or smtg, glancing at eachother in the spotlight, sharing it like old rockstar buds, Being in the Moment and all cool, then the SECOND the show is over, they pick the stupidest little fight. Probably about sunglasses. 

… So who would win in a fight? Iron Man (in the suit, fully charged,  of course) or Lestat dL (fully fed, not sunburnt)?

how do you background???+

Psssttt Brad Pitt in that photo that you reblog was 19 teen. But close enough.

image

(I assume you mean this one) Oh really? Thanks! I guess at 19, he’s just on the other side of Louis’ age in IWTV (24), since he was 30 or 31 during filming in 1993-1994 (you know I don’t actually know exactly when they were filming, WHY SHOULD I KNOW THESE THINGS, DO YOU KNOW THEM?! j/k ;]

STILL THO: cuteness overload.

If he’s 19 in that pic, then it was taken in 1982. Before I was born. Our age gap would have definitely come between us *siiiigh*

Hi, I just wanted to ask if you knew of a interview with the vampire drinking game. I’m sure I saw a picture before but I can’t remember if I actually did. If not, do you have any suggestions for rules? I said a while back I was going to do a drinking game video for reaching 400 followers so just needed to know.

An IWTV Drinking Game! A brilliant idea. I’d even suggest adding in some audience participation, as in Rocky Horror. For now, here are your Rules:

  • Drink whenever Louis refuses to do so.
  • Drink whenever Louis is shown on his back. (THERE ARE SO MANY TIMES)
  • Drink whenever anyone touches Louis’s hair.
  • Drink whenever Lestat goes from Calm to ROYALLY Pissed in 0.5 seconds.
  • Drink whenever Louis sets something on fire. 
  • One shot for every Dark Gift scene.
  • Drink for every on-screen dead body that Claudia is responsible for (not the whole family scene tho!).
  • Drink whenever Louis smiles (it’s rare, but it happens).

I put those Rules up above the cut bc I’m not aware of any movie!IWTV Drinking Game… but my Rules are great *u* I’ve seen that movie enough times to know that would make for a decently drunken end to a rewatch. More Rules would be better, so I’ll try to come up with some more… and audience participation would be even better! 

A gloriously talented person (who is also here on tumblr) culled together a hilarious VC drinking game from fandom suggestions, but that was for the books!VC. I’ll ask that person if they want to share that.

Any followups will be tagged #VC drinking game.

After getting Prince Lestat shortly after it came out, I finally have enough time to actually read it.. Why does Rose exist? Why does Viktor exist?

image

I actually still haven’t finished PL myself, preferring to burrow into fanfic when I have time to sit and read. I should really finish it tho bc I’m about 60% through, and I have allowed myself to be spoiled somewhat (I know that they exist) but I don’t actually know what happens with Vikki and Rosalita Viktor and Rose just yet.

I don’t know why they exist but my GUESS is that alot of that book is AR’s response to questions she’s sick and tired of hearing at Q&A’s over the years.

Among which (these are NOT my opinions):

  • Why cants the vampires has enjoyable sex? They shoulds be able to has sex bc an asexual relationship is impossible. 
  • WOULDNT IT BE AWESOMESAUCE IF LESTAT HAD A BABY
  • Lestan is a cool name and you should totes use it again.
  • There are not enough girls in your books. 
  • You should have a romance like in Twilight.

Take this out of context, and you get a sitcom about a laughably inept gay vampire couple and their passive-aggressive adopted daughter. 

Was that not the movie? Cuz that was totally what I got.

It definitely was.

If you’ve read the book you know that it’s exactly that.
