INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2022-)

[iwtv-az-hours]

serious question, how is this fire gift supposed to work?

so he makes a flame but doesn't burn himself, as in, vampires - kinda famous for dying of fire and such?

...so can he for instance warm himself up with the flames a bit?

[iwtv-az-hours]

me? excited for this fucked up dynamic in the upcoming seasons of iwtv? who could have guessed…

AND! listen, i would have put this under the cut, but there’s plenty there already, and I NEED to share. I usually listen to music while drawing, and this piece was not an exception. and while I do have my own iwtv playlist and also the show ost on hand, i was listening to a random mix of my other saved songs. and the goddamn “без бою” by океан ельзи starts playing, and i almost fell from my chair with how hilarious i suddenly found it. I don’t think someone who isn’t ukrainian can fully understand why I could barely breathe for like ten minutes, but if I were trying to explain it: it’s an incredibly popular ukrainian song, it was EVERYWHERE when I was growing up, and it’s always been the embodiment of Heterosexuality (TM) for me (I’m not even sure why exactly). but surprisingly enough some of the lyrics fit weirdly well with these two, and it gave me such a delightfully bizarre whiplash… I will leave those specific lines in the comments(?) under this post, and i do actually recommend the song! it may be overplayed here, but it’s genuinely a good song!))

this piece is actually one of those I’ve already done for this fun art prompts challenge! (@icryink, thank you for the prompts!!) I came across it accidentally, but loved the idea a lot, because cringe IS dead, and I have actually never drawn many, MANY things on that list. so I’m doing this challenge mostly for myself (and my interpretations of the prompts are very much influenced by my lack of knowledge about much of that stuff; and also by my “little shit who does not want to do what they’re told to” nature, a bit…)

i do plan to post everything, after I’m done with it, probably combining most of the pieces into a few posts.

BUT, like this one, I’ll post a few of them separately, just because it feels more right to me!

this prompt was: day 7 — pinterest art base. not sure how exactly I was supposed to interpret this, but i just decided to take one of my many pinterest references and do something with it. and ta-da, the result!))

Of course, boredom leads me to dubious paths, but in this case it is a path that I like, so we go back to the teaser because we are also looking forward to it and thinking about it.

I was noticing that, although the neckerchief is a common thing to wear, only Armand and Gustave appear with it during the teaser. It could clearly be any other vampire, but let's just assume that one of the two was responsible for throwing the molotov cocktail at the manor. And the question is why?

[iwtv-az-hours]

We'll have a fang gang within a fang gang!

Also ma boi Matěj's vampire name being Merde'Em is the funniest thing ever to me

Smols smols smols I am gonna make Claudia when I am less swamped at my day job :P

Do you like it? I composed it for a young violinist I once knew...

A boy of infinite beauty and sensitivity.

I believe that is for the lips Miss Lilly - I don’t like the way mine look plain.

A pair of misfit beauties - I can see why you run to the other.

Sent a two-horse carriage to pick me up. Felt like the queen of the quarter.

I told Mr Lioncourt you and I usually just talk. Why is that Louis?

What kind of a man wastes this waist with words? A beautiful man.

That's fine, love.

Dors bien, Miss Lilly

AU idea, I guess.

[iwtv-az-hours]

so funny how much 2022 Louis interaction with Daniel is trying to press this old guys buttons abt being Gay. Louis is like „I actually won the repression olympics 100 years ago mr molloy so theres NO way im letting you take my crown from me, GAYBOY” and Daniel just has to SUFFER with the incessant teasing

[iwtv-az-hours]

k I just wanna say, this trans vamp week idea is so awesome and BRINGS ME SO MUCH JOY

I mainly see fics by @akinmablog and art by @verimuru but damn you're filling me with life :-*

@transvampweek

@transvampweek prompts "Coming out" and "T4T"

Content note for old terminology and Armand being a gender philosopher (and totally read Butler's Gender Trouble 20 years later after this comic happens, all the while nodding and taking notes)

Sloppy sketches mean less strain on hand, so sorry not sorry for the messy comic

So, Daniel’s laptop background. The picture has been identified via this Reddit thread as being the St. Paul, MN old loading docs below Kellogg Street:

A lot of us have been commenting that this looked Romanesque. It did to me too. And my brain couldn’t let it go. I’ve been thinking obsessively about the Devil’s Minion story, (as one does? lol), and I remembered that the first blood exchange between Daniel and Armand was in the dining room of the Villa of the Mysteries in Pompeii, and when Daniel first sees Armand, he’s standing at the entrance of the house.

“As soon as he’d reached the ancient house, a stillness had descended. No guards here. No one living. Only the sudden silent appearance of Armand before the entrance. Armand again.” (QotD)

The modern entrance, according to research, is the South Colonnades, pictured here.

(pic source and floor plan)

“Armand’s lips had moved in a soft, slightly concealed smile. And then his eyes had misted and closed. He had bent close to Daniel, pressed his lips to Daniel’s neck.

And once again, as he had in a little room on Divisadero Street in San Francisco with the vampire Louis, Daniel felt the sharp teeth pierce the surface of his skin. Sudden pain and throbbing warmth. ‘Are you killing me finally?’ He grew drowsy, on fire, filled with love. ‘Do it, yes.’

But Armand had taken only a few droplets. He’d released Daniel and pressed gently on his shoulders, forcing Daniel down to his knees. Daniel had looked up to see the blood flowing from Armand’s wrist. Great electric shocks had passed through Daniel at the taste of that blood. It had seemed in a flash that the city of Pompeii was full of a whispering, a crying, some vague and pulsing imprint of long-ago suffering and death. Thousands perishing in smoke and ash. Thousands dying together. Together. Daniel had clung to Armand. But the blood was gone. Only a taste—no more.

‘You are mine, beautiful boy,’ Armand had said.

The following morning when he awoke in bed at the Excelsior in Rome, Daniel knew that he would not run away from Armand ever again.’” (QotD)

I mean. He’s doing a puzzle in the beginning episode of a Brueghel painting that’s on the walls of Armand’s Satanic coven in Paris. He’s having dreams, through Armand’s perspective, of his first meeting with them in the club. His laptop has a screenshot of an abandoned loading dock in St. Paul that resembles(?) the architecture of the South Colonnades at the Villa of the Mysteries where Daniel’s life officially changes forever. He’s dying, and in TDM, this is when Armand calls Daniel back to him for the final time. IMO, this is all Devil’s Minion related.

I’m NOT saying I’m right. Or that this isn’t up for debate. Or that they’re even connected.

I’m just saying it’s worth consideration.
