all these people bending over backwards to tell people not to engage with shipping in iwtv because it's a show about abuse

And how does the fact that our main protagonist is a man who sexually exploited vulnerable women for decades for his own financial gain makes you feel?

Is a woman sleeping once with a german soldier and suffering extreme acts of misogynist violence in consequence where you cross the morality line of this show?

Waking up and seeing that people are really attacking someone on twitter for expressing discomfort with the decision to make Madeleine a nazi collaborator and portraying her and her nazi lover sympathetically, so i want to say now that it made me uncomfortable as a Romani person too. I thought it was a poor writing choice and poorly handled, one of the few things so far i've disliked in this show. No one has a right to tell to people who've been directly affected by nazism and holocaust how to feel about it

Nobody has said this ever

people are always like "Oh a vampire wouldn't get horny while drinking someone's blood, that's like getting horny while eating a sandwich" and like man have you never had a really good fucking sandwich?

"Yield." (from King's Rising by C.S. Pacat)

(It's the first yield request by Damen, not the second. I'm aware that Laurent is lying on his back in this part too, but I wanted to put more storytelling in this illustration with a different pose.🙇‍♀️)

"I'm just a girl" you are a grown woman with competency in many areas stop selling yourself short and do the damn task to the standard you know you're capable of.

the assurance "nobody is judging you" is straight up false... people ARE judging you and you have to find a way to be ok w it

Armand: and then I was sold to a brothel

Louis: don’t know why but I’m suddenly remembering that I used to be real good at running things

the funny thing about armand and lestat in the books is that lestat does love and desire armand but he keeps getting turned off by armand being just a little too crazy for him. which must be very humbling coming from lestat of all people

[candysea-blog]

so the thing is.. the thing is. lestat is manipulative yes but crucially, CRUCIALLY he's not good at it. in ep 1 he had a plan for seducing louis but the moment it stopped going his way he got impatient threw a tantrum and basically strongarmed louis into becoming his companion which only really worked because louis is also crazy. but the thing is the thing IS that that's exactly what's scary about lestat, that he's a selfish irrational violent man with no impulse control and he's also often kind of stupid. and the fact that he DOES love louis extremely sincerely and passionately only ADDS to the horror of it because there's a level of volatility and unpredictability that simply wouldn't be present if he was a cold savvy master manipulator. there's simply nothing he wouldn't do to keep him and he is insane!!!!

and this is also what makes season 2 interesting because armand actually IS a master manipulator and that's scary in the completely opposite way, in a subtle way where you don't even get that you've been manipulated until it's too late or potentially ever. and he too is insane and capable of doing anything to get and keep what he wants. lestat was incapable of keeping louis with him without resorting to violence but armand doesn't even need to and better for him yet he's convinced louis that it's all his choice and that he has real agency in the relationship and that is also scary!!!! they are both really scary that's the thing

The first and only time Lestat ever tells someone not to scream because of him (probably right after clawing his outraged way out of the abandoned hot topic that I can only assume was built over his snoozing spot)

Kudos to @stlelios and @pimini whose posts appeared on my for you page and launched these images directly into my mind’s eye
