#FUCK YOU NEW ORLEANS

[gerardway-is-my-babygirl]

IT IS 7AM AND I HAVE NOT SLEPT

I just spent the past hour trying to find where Renfield's apartment Is for a fic JUST SO I COULD IMAGINE HOW FAR IT IS FROM THE HOSPITAL AND LOBO MANSION

I feel crazy. I feel unhinged. I want to sleep

It was like a wild goose chase because I kept looking at the shots of the apartment In the movie where Its literally called SUNRISE TOWER but It Isn't called that In real life!!!! So then thankfully there was a building that had Its actual name on It In the movie thats near the apartment so I FINALLY found It but now I've aged 50 years from stress

Also the worst thing Is the apartment Isn't even blue Irl!!!!!!!! ITS WHITE AND BLACK. WHERES THE JOY. WHERES THE WHIMSY. FUCK YOU NEW ORLEANS

Not a day goes by where I do think of Claudia Eparvier (formerly De Lioncourt Du Lac) the love she never received and the way it appeared when she was no longer there, I think about her bloodlust and her ache to be full, her growth the fight she had to fight to actually claim her womanhood to be seen and heard and how little time she had with that feeling, I think about the love she found and how beautiful it was, how she was the most vampire to ever vampire, she got it when none of those self hating bastards did and considering how little time she had with it she speed ran that fucking shit.

Sorry not sorry but Piper and Hazel being able to speak French to each other and understand it better than Leo and Reyna speaking Spanish to each other is still the funniest thing HOO ever did

Alive!Noah: I am wanted by the law and I deserve it, for betraying my friends and causing the death of my best friend/potential lover. I am the worst person to ever walk this planet-

Alive!MC: Fuck yeah, be gay and do crimes

If i found out paul got turned into a vampire I wouldn't even be like holy shit vampires are real??? Or think he was lying or whatever. I'd be like oh yeah that tracks for him I guess

it's been said before and I'll say it again. the beatles live in an alternate plane of existence where the regular rules of what is and isn't real do not apply. if predestination and soulmates and ghosts can be real for paul then fuck it why not vampires. he's already metaphorically experiencing the weight of immortality anyway I hope that old man lives forever

If someone’s art makes you feel seen and understood— if an album rips your heart out, heals it and put it back—the logical next step isn’t for you to be weird and cross boundaries with the artist online or out in public. Don’t address her in ways she specifically asked not to be. Don’t approach them expecting something. BUY A CONCERT TICKET AND CRY IN THE STANDS LIKE A NORMAL FAN.

Leave Chappell alone. Apologize to Mitski.

Be for real.

Actually I’m gonna give y’all some advice.

Four words: “I love your work.”

An old phrase that we used to say often. It gets the point across and when you say it to a celeb you run into you’ll get a better reaction. It’s quick enough for passing by them in the airport. It’s nice enough as an opener before asking for a picture. Best of all it’s sincere and about what they do instead of who they are personally (which is none of your business). You love their work and got a chance to tell them without spilling your guts all over the floor.

Say it with me: “I love your work.”

You’re welcome.

wish i had taken better pictures while i was in new orleans but i almost gave myself heat exhaustion/a heat stroke walking to the gay vampire house. here's some proof of my follies though :)

[laniidae-passerine]

we’ve swung so hard from the one evil conclusion (Louis is a horrible person who deserves the awful things that have been inflicted on him) that now we’re on the equally evil and terribly boring side of Louis is an angel and you cannot argue he was being cruel or manipulative in any of his relationships. like yes he was. he was genuinely horrible to Armand, even if Armand was playing some 5d chess game the whole time. Louis is cruel, relentless and deeply selfish in every relationship he enters. Which is why it is positively baffling to read people reacting with anger when meta or discussion arises about Louis’ negative traits or behaviour? especially when they’re arguing against things that Jacob Anderson has said in interviews? 100% valid to want to protect Louis and acknowledge that a significant proportion of fandom are harsher on him than on his peers, but that does not make him an angel and it’s not racially motivated to call the vicious selfish vampire a vicious selfish vampire. that’s the appeal of him!!! love him as is stop flattening him

lol man y'know i have this theory that louis is meant to make more sense to the audience about this--that there was initially a vibe of New Orleans Just Be Like That (And Everybody Knows). in the script that aired, the de Pointe du Lacs name-drop the Mayfair witches living nearby. and in an earlier draft of the script, there was "a young voodoo priest," Oncle Vervain, that Louis knows as a friend, who seemed to serve the purpose of clueing the audience in explicitly that supernatural forces were a thing in nola (maybe they cut him bc they realized this wasn't culturally sensitive; maybe they were like whoa goddamn, getting kinda close to the Magical Negro trope--nope; maybe they couldn't include him for time--idk if they've discussed it).

among things that happen in other scenes, Oncle Vervain meets Lestat and kinda hates him (bolding mine):

ONCLE VERVAIN (O.C.) Bon-swa-ray, Louis Lu Lac! [sic] Louis and Lestat turn around to see Oncle Verain creeping down the street with his Voodoo gear.

LOUIS Oncle! Get on here, got someone you need to know. Nawlins voodoo meet European voodoo. Lestat this is Oncle Vervain.

Lestat extends his hand. Oncle shakes it, stops still when he sees Lestat’s eyes.

LOUIS (CONT'D) Blood’s got powers we ain’t never seen round here.

Oncle Vervain drops Lestat’s hand, turns to Louis.

ONCLE VERVAIN (in Haitian) I know blood…This man has none.

LOUIS (In Haitian) This my friend. Come on, now.

Lestat and Oncle Vervain in a stare down. Louis tries to break the tension. LOUIS (CONT'D) I owe you for the gris gris, Oncle.

Louis offers Oncle a couple dollars.

ONCLE VERVAIN Can’t take that, brah.

LOUIS Good luck broke my way, Oncle. Go on now.

Oncle Vervain doesn’t take it, turns right around from where he came, muttering a prayer of protection to Papa Legba.

LOUIS (CONT'D) Fuck you, too. (to Lestat) More money for me.

And then Louis and Lestat go up to Lestat's townhouse and fuck and Lestat drinks his blood lol. so I mean, Oncle Vervain kinda had a lay of the land, lol.

so in earlier drafts, we get the sense Louis is explicitly, openly accepting of Lestat having unusual abilities, as one does (beyond stuff like the final version's "he's got tricks" line, and telling Lestat not to do that shit around his family), and just rolls with it. and it kinda also helps sell Lestat biting Louis/sucking his blood (AnD fLoATiNg lol) during their transcendent sex, and Louis not flipping his shit about that

but i will never stop laughing at the final version's impression of desperately dickmatized closeted louis compartmentalizing overtime because his eyes were on the prize and this weird hot intense frenchman was totally, totally going to give him the d if louis let him. relatable

Louis "least curious vampire to ever exist" de Point du Lac
