Hey I saw your post about iwtv turning fails and just wondering if you wud be willing to expand more on that, what the root of the problem is and how Louis solves it? Sorry I don't wanna read the books but the lore is so interesting

Hey!

Soooo this is likely a huge spoiler for the later books and likely the show, too. Fair warning;))

In real short:

In the later books Amel, the spirit that propels them and initially made them vampires (through a fusion with Akasha) wakes. He is in agony, spread too thin, and he makes vampires burn others to “thin their ranks“. While he is spread too thin turnings fail, as one of the symptoms.

Louis, in the books, recognizes what is different for him than for the others wrt to this spirit - he is “disconnected“ from the web because of his suicide attempt in Merrick (which is also why that suicide attempt is so important, not only for Louis‘ personal development (and it is!) but also because it does disconnect him).

He suggests the theory of “the silver cord“ (remember the “cord“ comment in ep7?^^) - and also a way to sever the cords for all vampires.

They manage it by temporarily halting Lestat‘s heart (who carries the core at that point) and everyone (except Lestat) gets disconnected.

Afterwards the existing vampires all have their own… piece, or copy of spirit tendril, so to speak, and can successfully turn again.

I‘m not sure how exactly they will implement all this in the show (since they‘ll likely omit the replimoids I think), but I am pretty sure they will go there.

There have been quite a lot of hints already, and also re Amel‘s awakening, imho, of which we might have seen something in ep5 (Lestat says “I don’t know what possessed me that night“) since Amel‘s awakening is a violent one and he is drawn to blood and violence - and loves to look at Louis through Lestat‘s eyes.

We‘ll see ;)

But there’s actually quite a lot hinted at already, and I bet when we‘ll rewatch in a few years we’ll all playfully groan bc it was alllllll set up ^^

I was tagged by the amazing @hlmoorewrites​! Check her out!

3 Ships:

Elezar/Skellan: I know almost no one read The Cadeleonian book series but they will always be in my heart! They just have such an amazing relationship, like every time I thought there would be some misunderstanding or some stupid fight they talked about their issues???? We stan good communication and trust. Plus I definitely have a weakness and it’s definitely strong, repressed, lonely people who fall helplessly in love with wild-spirited sunshine people and then there is much happiness.

Derek/Stiles: listen I have not watched past season 1 of Teen Wolf and even that I have not enjoyed much. But there’s so much amazing fic of these two, I can’t help it. Also they kinda fall right into my type (as per the last pairing), so there’s that.

Tauran/Kalai: yay, more book couples. Tauran and Kalai are from Wild Sky and they are the softest, sweetest, bestest dragon dads the world has ever seen. Every time one of them sees each other they’re like “i just saw a man so beautiful I started crying”. Perfect.

Doran/Nathaniel: I’m cheating and leaving this here, because even though I haven’t gotten to Soul of Ash yet (sorry!), just reading their names made me overcome with feelings! The tenderness!! The hands!! The slow burn!! The suffering!! Yes, please! Everyone should read the Death's Embrace series, just do it!

Last song I listened to: Merry Go Round of Life (from Howl’s Moving Castle)

Last movie I watched: Hocus Pocus, on Halloween while on a video call with my friends. Cliche but fun. It’s not my favourite movie but it is one of my friends’.

Currently watching: Just finished The Haunting of Bly Mansion, about to start The Mandalorian!

Currently Reading: Sale prof! by Nicolas Revol. I am reading this for one of my university classes and I should be done with it today. It’s interesting but not something I would read for fun, definitely. As soon as I’m done I plan on FINALLY starting my reread of Heart of Dust, please, I just want to be free from boring university texts!

Currently Craving: Barbecue ribs

last song: Masterfade by Andrew Bird. This was actually my alarm (it picks a random song from one of my playlists), so I didn’t really listen to it, but it’s a good song to wake up to!

last movie: Knives out. I liked it a lot!

currently watching: I’m rewatching Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (a friend had never seen it and I started watching it with him, and just couldn’t stop lmao. It’s so good!!!!)

currently reading: really (really) slowly rereading Heart of Dust so I can finally read Soul of Ash! (Both by H.L. Moore. I strongly recommend them, so so so good!)

currently craving: Mexican food or something fresh and nice.
