The Vampire Chronicles: Gabrielle de Lioncourt

She seemed dimly fascinated by all of this, but it didn’t really matter to her. What mattered to her was what lay before her now. And when her death was finished, she was unstoppable. There was no wall that she could not climb, no door she wouldn’t enter, no rooftop terrain too steep. It was as if she did not believe that she would live forever; rather she thought she had been granted this one night of supernatural vitality and all things must be known and accomplished before death would come for her at dawn.

So the other day I was reading The Vampire Lestat, and I was at the part where Lestat played the violin for Akasha and Enkil and then Akasha freaked out and screamed and smashed the violin then things went down–but anyways. At that specific part, I’m pretty sure I started actually seeing it and hearing every single note and I heard Akasha’s screams and after that scene was over, I tore myself from the book and I felt dizzy and I felt like I had a beautiful nightmare and just ?? what was that—

Anne Rice be like: it can be a sweet dreeeam or a beautiful nightmaaare

I don’t think that the ‘vampires having balls/testicles’ applies to VC. Like, I can think of like, seven character whom /actually/ have balls and they’re all women.

Ha! You have a point. There are some very awesomely ballsy VC women.
