Anne Rice Vampires Ranked by What It Would Be Like to Get Chomped by Them

Armand – Hypnotic, irresistible. You’ll stray into a beautiful garden and never leave.

Louis – Tender, quick and painless. His victims always love him.

Bianca – A class act. Never spills a drop. She’ll tell you a joke right when she leans in.

Lestat – Who needs life when you have that 1,000-watt smile embedded in your jugular?

Marius – Hates waste and unnecessary suffering. 

Akasha – The primal fount can never be slaked.

Khayman – A total sweetheart. You can’t even be mad at him.

Pandora – Super sexy until she rips out your heart and sucks it dry like a Capri Sun.

Daniel – Starts out gentle then gets hedonistic and out of control. Might rip your head off accidentally. Sorry, Boss.

David – Terribly sorry, it’s nothing personal, you understand.

Gabrielle – Will take you down like a lioness with a goddamn wildebeest.

Mael – Marius is so disgusted that you let yourself get killed by this Druid himbo.

Claudia – Uncanny, plus you just know she is into some freaky shit.

Santino – That mildewy smell never really goes away.

Maharet – Hopefully she waits until you’re dead before she steals your eyeballs.

Mekare – [telepathic screaming]

Reminder that Gabrielle de Lioncourt is canonically 50 when she dies and she is very hot. Please remember both of these things are true 🌸

@monstersinthecosmos and I were talking and she dug up this exchange Anne had with someone on Fanpop back in the day, concerning vampires' love and sexuality. There were quite a few fascinating tidbits but these are my favorites:

I see them [vampires] as transcending matters of gender or age. Lestat loves Louis. Louis loves Claudia. Armand loves Lestat. Lestat loves Gabrielle. There is no distinct difference in the quality of any of these loves. This has also been described as polymorphous sensuality.

"--- Armand is desperately in love with Lestat but it has nothing to do with sex. Armand feels Marius failed him and Marius feels Armand failed him, and that part has nothing to do with sex. Marius and Pandora, that is a love affair, but again sex has nothing to do with it. So they are all capable of loving people of their own gender and the other gender; gender doesn't matter. It's the essence. Lestat loves David Talbot as a lover, a friend, a mentor, a father, etc. --- It goes on like that. The act of dominating and drinking blood can happen between any two characters regardless of gender. They cannot be pinned down. They see all life as potentially beautiful and all forms of love as rewarding."

I'm verklempt at the fact Anne mentioned Armand and Lestat in the same vein as Armand and Marius and Marius and Pandora, but also I love how much she emphasizes that they can cannot be pinned down and all that forms of love are rewarding!

It's just such a revolutionary way of thinking especially when you consider that she was a woman born in the 1940s in the American South. She may have missed the beat on some things but on others, she was right on the fucking money.

do you think the women in anne rice’s books have the same problems lesbians do irl. like do they try for relationships that are blatantly a bad idea because they’re so lonely. do the tulane drafts show gabrielle and bianca having whatever the vampire equivalent of a one-night stand is and then realizing when gabrielle tries to dig them both holes in the ground that it Will Not Work Out

"you attract what you fear" AHHH PLS GABRIELLE DE LIONCOURT IM SO SCARED

guys I've been on an art block lately and I don't know how long it'll last, I couldn't even bother to draw a background, so sorry if my drawings all look the same/lack details. Also the cigarette is just for the aesthetics

[paparaxote]

Gabrielle de Lioncourt has become my new found obsession. I will refer to her with feminine pronouns, as it is how Anne Rice presents her in the book. But I am so smitten with this non-binary individual. If only Anne had written a book about her and her adventures. Oh, well.

Adding some detail to an old Gabrielle sketch

[captain-noir]

every time i think about how messed up the vampire bonds/families are i go a little insane. louis and claudia are siblings because lestats their father but lestats also louis husband so claudia’s louis child too but then gabrielle’s lestat’s actual mother and also his daughter so that means louis is gabrielle’s son in law and also her brother and all the children are psychically linked so when lestat’s railing his husband/son louis, his sister/daughter and mother/daughter can hear it all if louis doesnt put up a block which he sometimes canonically doesnt per ep 6. riveting television is back!

Louis murdered Gabrielle's husband. and she never even thanked him
