How do you interpret the Louis vampire transformation in the book, not the show. It seems very sexual from my understanding although Lestat is a complete a**hole. I'm starting to reread the books again it's been awhile.

…"Are we close to God when we create something out of nothing? When we pretend we are the tiny flame and we make other flames?"

nansorella, this question could be an essay answer 💗! I'm glad to hear you're rereading the books, definitely try to get through TOBT if you can, that's where the above quote came from. There's a lot of layers with Lestat giving the Dark Gift to Louis. But I'll try to keep this as short as I can, and we can always delve further in a follow up ;}

[^X by @xxhellonursexx, read the caption on that bc it's in line with my answer on this ask! Vampiric feeding could be compared to breastfeeding, but specifically their turning is really the most comparable, a child feeding on the nutrition from their parent's own body.]

Focusing on the book, yes, my reading is that it's intentionally very sexual (even complete a**holes can be capable of sex!). Since vampires can't get pregnant, the Dark Gift is their method of sexual reproduction; I would argue that it's the most intimate act they can perform. Yes Lestat is being more than a bit of an a**hole in that moment but I can excuse it partly bc it was AR's first time writing a vampire turning and Lestat was for sure the main antagonist in that story, so he had to be sassy/cruel even in what should have been a loving moment but that's another entire discussion. Ppl can be awful during the act of giving birth, too, so... yeah... I would also argue that the '94 movie softened that scene somewhat, Lestat was positively thrilled about doing it and wasn't awful to Louis (except for when he had to break away from Louis, but that's also comparable to childbirth, which has pain involved for sure, and then you can see how sexually gratified he is laying back and watching Louis transform after they separate so ANYWAY!).

Since Lestat has so many fledglings, it was kind of a fandom joke that every time X sound occurs, Lestat makes another fledgling... maybe it's because he gets so much pleasure out of performing the act itself, and, transforming someone into a vampire, he gains a kind of parental and creative ownership of that person. It's his blood in them, after all!

Louis describes the act of killing as being a celebration of his making, (my bold & italics emphasis added):

"Killing is no ordinary act," said the vampire. "One doesn't simply glut oneself on blood." He shook his head. "It is the experience of another's life for certain, and often the experience of the loss of that life through the blood, slowly. It is again and again the experience of that loss of my own life, which I experienced when I sucked the blood from Lestat's wrist and felt his heart pound with my heart. It is again and again a celebration of that experience; because for vampires that is the ultimate experience."

[X for a great gifset of this quote by @fetch-me-a-block]

And then in Tale of the Body Thief, Lestat's reflecting on the creation of Claudia in a similar way to how ppl talk about the creation of their children:

[^X St. Patrick’s Cathedral, NYC, 11/7/15.]

“I lifted the long wax wick, dipped it into an old flame, and carried the fire to a fresh candle, watched the little tongue grow orange and bright. What a miracle, I thought. One tiny flame could make so many other flames; one tiny flame could set afire a whole world. Why, I had, with this simple gesture, actually increased the sum total of light in the universe, had I not? …«But why, Lestat?» Because she was beautiful, because she was dying, because I wanted to see if it would work. Because nobody wanted her and she was there, and I picked her up and held her in my arms. Because it was something I could accomplish, like the little candle flame in the church making another flame and still retaining its own light - my way of creating, my only way, don’t you see? One moment there were two of us, and then we were three. …«Are we close to God when we create something out of nothing? When we pretend we are the tiny flame and we make other flames?»

That book has an undercurrent of Claudia haunting Lestat (possibly as a ghost, but possibly as just his own imaginary manifestation of her) and pestering him about why he created her, maybe trying to provoke him into an apology, and I feel like he's able to make peace with her in his ruminations about her in that book. This is why I encourage ppl to read the canon books, even on beyond the first 3, because there are gems like this that add a richness to the characters, we can explore them along with Anne Rice 💗💗💗

🤯 Wow!

A year ago today....

"Week 17 | Don't Let Devil | remix" #KillerMike

This one was a huge favorite for me. I enjoyed the metaphors and overall energy of the flow I was able spit over this beat.

I don't talk about selling narcotics fr in my music (in a glorifiable way), however I do compare my music to dope from time to time. From the syringe to the #Pimp-C line, this was my favorite "dope" lyrics i have written. Have you heard the full #32weeksMixtape yet?

but daddy she's prolific

Equally, I'm not unashamed to admit time with Taylor's new one too. It's just… hard to ignore and frankly, I do view her as a sort of a Madonna of our generation.. Argue with me in the comments if you really disagree. But in sense of a review and sit back and album think, I think my friend said it best:

Lyrically dense af. Not her best but I don't think that was the point. I think this album is for her. And it's her processing the last two years the only way she knows how"

I'd agree. It really feels like she had her journal and notes over the last few years (Matt Healy, Joe, Travis, being america's couple, being yelled at jet flying and spreading that carbon) and phoned Jack up and was like, hey I need to get some stuff off my chest, and he was like, oh hey i have 31 quick melodies, why don't you just lay them out, no problem, easy peasy, and sure thing let's do this during the midst of your giant tour, but no matter. We got this.

And then ... they just went and did the thing.

It's impressive. Prolific again. I keep using that word.

There are some really cool moments and great just angry tracks/words (the smallest man who ever lived, the black dog, etc.), and then on the reverse there are songs like, 'who's afraid of little old me' - which I'M PRAYING is some out-of-body track and she's not being serious "so i leap from the gallows..?" … like you've really had to work to rise like a phoenix from the ashes, Taylor?? cause ha.. that's like, self-aware much? But I digress. It's insane she can just throw out 31 new songs. And there are good moments within these songs too. Not just all throwaways.

I'm also sorry to all the swifties who now to learn the words to these new songs (and would you not believe that there already several in the hopper for Travis?) but at least some of words are beginning to get more similar over time….

What if the characters who left the show had stuck around on the Waverider for later events? How would they have fit into the future episodes?

Want to see DarhkAtom in the Season 5 finale? How about Leonard Snart meeting the JSA? Come read ex-Legends dropped into whatever episode I feel like.

I follow you on AO3. I've realized you have a ton of multichapter fics which contain numerous chapters.

How do you manage to be so prolific?

Hi there!

It's just something I do, really. I tend to write fast, and revise as I go along and I've learned that when the muse is behaving, it's best to listen to her if at all possible.

I hope you've enjoyed what you've read so far! 💜
