so.. it takes caspian finding out that he's a carbon copy of an eccentric genius CEO and that his entire life being raised in an abusive household was actually two actors who had to stage every single part of his life, for him to find the cure to the UI flaw and defeat the original version of himself from killing millions

and it takes maddie seeing her father die three times, seeing her lover die, then coming back 20 years later to die again, having her son bleed out in her arms, and having no one she loves in the physical world, for her to create her own universe via massive computer powered by the sun where billions of simulations run and become a god

i mean.. i guess those are ways to write tortured geniuses

I love how no one gives any shits about the talamasca except the talamasca in this show. raglan james is like "they haven't mentioned us yet have they" and daniel is like um yeah sure. I gotta go

Took a while to get used to the contact lenses in season 1 due to their… general vibes but eventually I warmed up to them and I honestly think their unsettling nature works magnificently in season 2, particularly with Armand. Assad can switch his expression from pliable and gentle to predatory and knowing SO wonderfully and the contacts add to that. This man drops his smile, stares out with his unnaturally big bright red eyes and you’re like “oh things are not ok in there and they’re about to get a lot worse out here.”

He is equal parts uncomfortable and beautiful and holy shit did they translate that wonderfully from the books.

(Quotes from Interview with the Vampire pg 421 (ebook) & The Vampire Lestat pg 326 (ebook))

A close second for me would probably be Santiago. He has such an unbelievably loud and distinct character design and the contrast of sharp pale colours (hair, skin, eyes) to saturated/dark colours (lips, under eyes, pupils, clothes) combined with Ben’s immense stage presence makes him an unforgettable force throughout the season. His contacts feel both very natural on him and very otherworldly.

Also every time their pupils look dilated (I can't recall if this is specifically through sfx or if their contacts allow for that) it makes me very feral. They either look like they're high off the blood they drank, like an animal in the midst of a hunt or like they're completely enraptured with whatever they're looking at. It gives off such a fascinating "beastly" look and really brings the (sometimes stiff) contacts to life.

(Like father, like daughter huh)

((And yes I do miss fake Rashid’s big brown eyes but sacrifices must be made for the narrative I guess 😔))

Wilford taught me how to see. He taught me how to do this. I can't do it without him. Because I miss him. He murdered you and I miss him. What is wrong with me?

ok FINALLY watched the first episode of pantheon after what? 2 years since it first aired?

and the thing that boggled my mind the most is that this lady who i'm quite sure is a higher up in the evil organization that uploads human brains to computers is not only surveilling all of her genius son's computer use (so far so good)

but also?????? STAGING an abusive relationship with the kid's dad??? IN ORDER TO GIVE THEIR SON DEPRESSION??????? (WTFFFF)

[nalyra-dreaming]

You know why as a Loustat truther i can enjoy other pairings without being threatened?

[insert Lestat's letter to Louis in Paris here]

True.

But we could also just, you know, enjoy what we like? I mean feeling ”threatened“ by ships … (not meaning you here specifically nonny but) seems so stupid to me.

Like, not liking some(thing) personally, maybe even for reasons is one thing. We all have preferences, our experiences and reasons. But feeling threatened????? Why????

And in the Vampire Chronicles, to top it off.

Halt and Catch Fire's pilot episode ("I/O") aired 10 years ago today. Feel old yet ?

Even though...

"Before the official series premiere, this episode was made available on AMC's Tumblr page on May 19th, 2014. It was the very first TV series to do this."
