Thank you so much for the book list! I’ve been into vampires since I was a child. Coming home from my grandmas house and watching the last few minutes of Fear Factor, just waiting for Buffy the Vampire Slayer to come on TV. One day IWTV was on TV and my mom called me into the room because she knew I’d love it. I even used to have a porcelain doll that looked like Claudia. I’ve been obsessed ever since and remember begging my mom to buy me The Vampire Chronicles from Barnes and Noble lol

(Another ancient ask, sorries, all… I think I sent the reply privately bc I can’t find it on my blog.)

You’re very welcome! I love these kind of stories, how ppl got into VC. Buffy is a gateway drug for many, for sure!

^Louis and Buffy meeting, sorta! Brad Pitt and Kristy Swanson, 1988 (X @vintagesalt). She was Buffy in the original movie (1992) and she’ll always have a place in my heart as Buffy ❤

Did you read Claudia’s Story? It’s IWTV from Claudia’s POV, I think you’d really enjoy it.

replied to your post “I’m going to be living in the french quarter for a week in march for…”

Thank you so much! This will definitely keep [me] busy during down time ❤

You’re so welcome! Thanks for coming back to tell me so ❤

Tell us about it if you go to any of those reccs, would be nice to give us all a taste of it *u*

Btw, I got a few additions to that post (I added them into the post, too):

@nixsrebellionoflies added:
may i add that you can go into port of call if youre not 21 and over? they have great burgers and a very interesting aesthetic. you might have to wait a while tho to get in

@jeezycreezysuperstar added:
Some of the cemeteries are now only open to the public via tour group, just fyi

You’re so welcome!

It’s a handy resource. I ought to reread it. (Y’all can get it on Amazon.)

It was probably intended to be the answers to questions AR gets alot about VC, plus some behind-the-scenes info and headcanons she had at the time. I’m not sure if it lines up with canon, but a good resource to have with your other VC books anyway!

I want to do a piece of Lestat when he was a young human and he fought the wolves…but I can’t remember some of the details.
Like…how many dogs he had, what kind…I remember he brought a morning star but… What else? :-T I don’t own the book to reference it

Two dogs, this I know.

Yup. “And here I was going out to hunt in rawhide boots and buckskin coat, with these ancient weapons tied to the saddle, and my two biggest mastiffs beside me in their spiked collars.

The shirtless pic of Cruise you just put up made my day better!!!!!!! THX <3 He looks so good there.

YOU’RE SO WELCOME ;D

Yes that one is very day-bettering, but also consider, for the nighttime-bettering:

7 Step Guide to Work Around the Evil Locked Text Box!

For RPers and anyone else.

I have a browser at work that won’t take Xkit so I had to figure out a workaround. Here’s my example post.

I’m just wondering if you have any other drafts of the script to Interview id like to read them all and see what changed and what stayed in.

Have I got a gift for you! 。:.゚ヽ(´∀`。)ノ゚.:。+゚

2nd draft: 4/1992 (I know I mentioned it before but for those who missed it)

Aaaaand this one is a wonderful fan-made painstakingly transcribed comparison script of what made it into the final cut of the movie vs. what was in the book vs. the script. (This person is on tumblr now and if they want me to credit them, I’ll be happy to do so, just respecting their privacy if they don’t.) 

This person even has images from cut scenes like this one:

YOURE WELCOME

I dont think were actually going to get new TVC movies

Maybe, maybe not. I didn’t think we’d ever get a new book and here we are even though it was, as predicted, a raging pile of crazy. The biggest fan and pusher of a new VC movie is actually Mater. For realz.

But the movies would be a big pile of butts

piles of butts can be good, too…
