Anne is so cute and sweet.

YES WE WANT ACTION FIGURES PLZ *grabby hands*

She wants “mass produced and readily available action figures …that might pass for Lestat, so that anyone could have one for a few bucks” !!! Anne, do you know how much Barbies cost these days? More than “a few bucks” but still, I like where she’s going with this.

There was a post that went around about a month ago re: VC action figures, here are some of the responses on it:

I WANT MOPING LOUIS ACTION FIGURE, THAT STILL COUNTS AS ACTION and he comes with a few dead rat accessories… and a few tattered books. Also:

  • Lestat w/ violet shades, multiple outfits sold separately
  • Santiago w/ scythe

@vampchronfic added:

  • Maharet and sets of different colored eyes.

@octoberreads added:

  • And a Lestat with a pull string that says “still whining 

@audacityinblack added:

  • A Daniel figure though…
  • Would come with tiny tape recorder, notebook, magically “emptying” bottles, and real clinging-to-Armand action.

@annabellioncourt added:

  • I mean, come on, not just the Hot Toys figures or the standard five inch figures, but the funko pops, and all those other novelty vinyl figures.

@phantomseptember added:

  • Imagine how many wardrobe extensions they could sell for a Lestat action figure!

@redversaillesrose added:

  • Nicki w/ violin. Hands sold separately.

The Vampire Chronicles Fancast : Akasha – Rihanna

“She turned her head ever so slightly; it seemed a miracle when she closed her eyes; because then the visible life went out of her altogether. A dead and perfect thing, fine black eyelashes curling exquisitely. I looked down at her throat; at the pale blue of the artery beneath the flesh, suddenly visible as if she meant for me to see it. The lust I felt was unsupportable. The goddess, mine! I took her roughly with a strength that would have hurt a mortal woman. The icy skin seemed absolutely impenetrable and then my teeth broke through it and the hot fount was roaring into me again.”

Thank you all for laying your affections w/ me over this pile of dysfunctional vampires!

BC of my absence this week I couldn’t reblog this ;A; so I’m extending it a bit longer, and throwing in 3 IWTV DVDs! They’re US-formatted, so NTSC.

Relevant info 7/29/16: Lestat’s not going to die in this book or ever ^_____^

[FB post, article in the post]

As someone who is deeply in love with VC, but behind on reading and lacking time…I’m a little embarrassed to ask…but what is Night Island? Is it an actual island? What’s the history there? Who owns an island? What do they do there? Or is it like a mini Vampire island/country, is there a king? Thanks in advance!

There’s no shame in asking for a refresher on a canon thing ;] While I can’t give you the full history (check out the Vampire Companion for that), in brief: 

Night Island was built by the vampire Armand as a gift to his mortal lover Daniel Molloy, to share w/ Daniel, and it is vividly described in Queen of the Damned. I gather that it is in fact a complex built on a man-made island (which does not exist IRL sorries) off the shore of Miami, Florida, USA. Daniel describes it as such:

“And Armand, he was probably roaming the dimly lighted rooms of the villa, steps away from the tourists and the shoppers, yet utterly cut off by steel doors and white walls – a sprawling palace of floor-length windows and broad balconies, perched over white sand. Solitary, yet near to the endless commotion, its vast living room facing the twinkling lights of the Miami shore.”

“… the Night Island, Armand’s own personal creation with its five dazzling glass stories of theaters, restaurants, and shops.”

[^This will be yer face if you visit there]

It’s meant to be a kind of universe of funtimes, where mortals can enjoy all kinds of entertainment, so it’s a big source of revenue for Armand, but more importantly, it’s where the coven gather and bond over a short period of time after a really harrowing shared adventure.
