Claudia Fanvid Recs

I put together a list of my favourite fanvids of Claudia from Interview with the Vampire for Claudia Appreciation Week run by @claudiadelionlac

The first vid is for the 1994 film, while all the rest are from the current television series.

General Trigger Warnings (not all apply to every single vid): violence, blood, murder, some gore, fire, domestic violence, implied sexual assault (off-screen)

Movie: Precious by bironic - Louis’s point-of-view on Claudia and their relationship. (Music by Depeche Mode)

Vids made while season 1 was still airing:

Girl anachronism (AO3 link) by @firstaudrina - Behold the world’s worst accident! Made before the season 1 finale, though it uses some promotional clips for it. (Music by The Dresden Dolls)

Vids using footage from the whole season (in alphabetical order):

the kisses to his temple are you fucking kidding me

[brian-kinney-apologist]

every day I thank god, the universe and the higher powers for the fact that sam reid's dedication to serve a diabolic amount of cunt as lestat de lioncourt is 10 billion times stronger than his hatred to having long hair

[danlous]

"They have a sort of angry sexual tension between the two of them, you're not really sure if they hate it each other or if they want to be with each other. And that continues for quite a few centuries."

"I think they seduce each other."

"He's like a twisted, angelic, psychotic demon, who survived so long."

"Armand needs control and a part of that control is structure. Lestat is not a creature of structure. Once he's found himself in a situation that kind of is working it's not working anymore."

Sam and Assad the great lesmand understanders! [x]
