Does any one else think of the vampire chronicles characters, or any of their favorite characters, perhaps their own, when they are facing something daunting or extremely stressful? Kind of like a fantasy or a daydream, it just keeps you calm so you can get through the moment. If so, can you share some of those instances? I’m just curious if I’m the only one. Sometimes it feels like I am.
Definitely for me! There are times when I imagine certain characters just walking beside me on my way home from a rough day, offering advice or being quietly supportive, maybe giving reassurance telepathically or just by being present, like any close friend can give.
They let me set the pace, and their presence wards off anyone from messing with me, bc they can intimidate with a glare, or just by having that essence of danger they all carry 😉
(I also like to imagine Lestat promising me a night of retail therapy the next time he’s in town!)
…For our fourthannual Vampire Chronicles Secret Santa exchange!
If you participated last year, or participated in any of the other exchanges we hosted after, you should be familiar with how this works. Think Secret Santa, but with no sharing of physical addresses. The gifts given are all shared completely on Tumblr, be it drabbles, fanart, awesome graphics, or what have you. We’ve had great turn outs the past couple of years, and we are definitely looking forward to seeing what great stuff you all submit this year!
If you would like to join:
You can sign up until December 2nd at 11:59PM CST.
By December 7th, we will be assigning all of you your Santas.
Presents must be submitted to the page no later than December 24rd at 11:59PM CST.
Gifts will be posted in a queue throughout the day on December 25.
So, feel free to swing by the rules page, and once you’ve read that through, go ahead and join!
Do the thing, ppl! @wicked-felina and I will be the mods of this event. We saw great turnout last year, and for @monstersinthecosmos & @superhiki‘s #InktoberVC, let’s keep the fanworks momentum going with this year’s @vcsecretgifts exchange <3<3<3

[The page will be updated for 2017, but for now, go ahead and sign up]
Marius and Daniel Molloy content- Inspired by many fun conversations. I suppose there is an order to this- Marius gets onto Daniel for being messy with his constant crafting, forces him to take a damn bath, and then gifts him a rather expensive model locomotive. I think in his phases of vampiric madness he rarely talks except when he’s got a really good quip. Marius sees him being especially bent out of shape and pulled into his crafts and decides to remind the fledgling of his fledgling that he cares.
Photoshop and spare minutes over the past several, several days…
