I love the Vampire Chronicles and my absolute favourite is, has always been and will always be Nicki.
I know my hair is not curly enough on this Picture, but it had been a long day and my curls had faded a bit. Still, this is my favourite Picture of my red Velvet coat. The embroidery has been done by Hand and it was my ‘first time’ too. Sadly, I cannot Play the violin… but I love it anyway. ^.^
Can we please talk about how perfect the-savage-nymph-art is as Nicolas de Lenfent?
(She made the whole outfit herself. She did all the embroidery by hand! I commented this cosplay about 5 years or so ago, then I met her at a convention in 2014. She told me her nickname of a site we’re both on and I suddenly made the connection to her Nicki-Cosplay… I had planned to cosplay Armand (along with a friend as Louis) the very next day and I got her to wear Nikolas for me. What can I say? I fell in love. Literally. Meeting her changed my life. A lot. But I’m so much more happy now.)
Imagine Lestat waking Louis up ‘early’ on October 1st and as Louis is all groggy or some shit and wondering why Lestat had awoken him, Lestat leans im reaaaal close and whispers “its halloween” [X]
I know what you mean, Louis would probably agree w/ you for similar (or the same!) reasons why he wants Lestat to stop writing any more books or authorizing his ghostwriter to do so.
[I just don’t want movies to cheapen it or represent the books in a bad light…]
^So I think Josh Boone is going to handle the material very respectfully, looking at the way he tagged up the Stand for that adaptation, he clearly is treating that book like it’s the Bible for that project *u* We’ll see how the Stand fandom (what do they call themselves? now I’m curious) reacts when that adaptation comes out, as my Dad says, “The proof is in the pudding.”
Anon definitely has some valid concerns, but I wouldn’t worry too much for the reasons given above from Burnadette and myself. Also, on your concern with Boone representing the books in a bad light or cheapening it, evidence has been shown on his twitter that he has been taking careful account of the series and been communicating with Anne pretty well, enough for the both of them to show love and gratitude to each other. Take this recent conversation for example:
And there are other mentions all over the place with Boone mentioning his love of the series. I think we’re in good hands 🙂
Reblogging for @firelight-fading/@phoenifia‘s comments. We don’t have a wide sample size to state it beyond doubt but we’ve seen that when AR is involved (movie!IWTV, Claudia’s Story), the VC adaptation tends to be hella better than when she’s not.
Thank goodness they didn’t put 75 candles on that cake! and I assume w/ the chocolate icing that it isn’t red velvet cake but that’s ok not everyone demands RED VELVET EVERYTHING
Whatever your feelings are for our Mater Gloriosa, she gave birth to our fave characters and I, for one, will be forever grateful ❤
The Vampire Chronicles Meet-up on sunday was great, I feel like I´ve met 100 new people, but I am sure I have met the most someday before, thank you guys so much!
