#amc see my vision

thinking about IWTV and how Daniel says of Lestat, “I’ve gotta meet this guy”…and how the sequel book is basically Lestat complaining how he’s misunderstood and how Louis’s account gets a bunch of stuff wrong, but also explaining his turning and some basics of vampire lore…a perfect framing device for the two of them meeting and commiserating in s3…reflecting on their makers and the fledgling bond…Lestat mentoring Daniel…Daniel chatting with Louis telepathically and driving Lestat insane…Lestat and Louis passing notes via Daniel until he loses it and makes them talk on the phone…Lestat offering to reach out to Armand for him but Daniel refusing…in-person Loustat romance rekindling in the season finale just as the well well if it isn’t the consequences of my actions pops up in the form of Akasha…but they’ll face it together…give it to me

I cannot believe people were so pissy about Assad’s casting as Armand, look at him —

The man looks like every homo-repressed renaissance painter’s wet dream - like 10/10 would paint him as Jesus or several angels into as many frescoes as possible.

Extremely niche meme that I'm the only audience for: a.k.a, "why do my fav characters come with a Type"

this is truly the dynamic I want for Devil's Minion in iwtv season 3, like this is the sort of messy horny situationship that I NEED to see Armand and Daniel have

Alright, in honor of @oldbutchdaniel 's Fan Fiction Fridays, I had an idea for how the 70s chase era of devil's minion might go, but I'm not great at full fledged writing so! Plot beat bullet points:

Daniel wakes up in a drug den, dried blood down to his ankles, massive neck wound, and the knowledge that vampires are real. He then realizes that, shit, he doesn't have the interview tapes/any solid evidence that would prove it.

Goes back home, patches himself up, and within a week decides to backtrack to Divisadero street and try to remember which apartment they were in. Maybe Louis left something, anything that could be concrete evidence that vampires exist and he was attacked by one. Or better yet, he might find a single cassette of the hours of recorded tapes.

So, Daniel heads towards Divisadero, and, with the slightest bit of self preservation, decides to go during the day. Vampires can't go out in the sun, so. Should be safer, right? 👍

Cut over to Armand, in the main room of the apartment, cleaning up, patching the wall, trying to fix the northward slant of the floor, when he looks up and Daniel's standing in the doorway. (Maybe the door wasn't locked, maybe Daniel picked it, maybe he went to pick it and found it was unlocked.)

They stare at each other for a beat. Armand thinking that there's no way this boy is That stupid. Daniel thinking oh shit, I just broke into this guy's house. This kind of? familiar? looking guy? Which could either be deja vu or I'm still mildly concussed.

They talk back and forth for a minute, until it eventually devolves into Daniel getting told to leave, refusing, and then Armand asking hey, how fast can you run? I'm going to hunt you down, so. Go, now. Start running.

Daniel books it, out the door, down the stairs, door opens, door closes. Starts down the street, only to slow, stop, think it over, and starts going in a different direction, patting down his pockets to see if he has any money for either a payphone or a taxi or maybe a plane ticket if he can manage to get to the nearest airport.

And! The chase begins.

episode 7 is called “I want you more than anything in the world” ohhhhhhh my god because of the three timelines what if armand is saying it in all three of them. what if season 2 ends with armand throwing himself at lestat in the late 1700s, Louis in the late 1800s 1940s AND TO DANIEL IN 2022‼️‼️‼️

I know we’re like spoiled for choice when it comes to connecting Siken poems to characters from The Terror because of the, um, Themes, you know? But honestly, if we’re not talking about “Real Estate” and how it’s The Poem for Crozier then actually what are we doing, even?

[theboarsbride]

trying to manifest The Terror but in a Don Bluth style🐻‍❄️

But yeah....Bear Wife but doodled as if she were a don bluth villain😍

[mai-komagata]

i think trystan gravelle is bringing a real eric bogosian level of i want to fuck that immortal being in season 3 that is just lost on the rings of power fandom

[bodythieves]

I did it 🧎🏼‍♀️I made this in like 2 hours. take it. take it from me.

[ladygirl004]

When I imagine a fem version of old Daniel I like to picture Miranda Priestly from 2006 The Devil Wears Prada but butch.

Not because I think that’s technically the most realistic or accurate but because the idea of butch Meryl Streep is one of the hottest things I can think of.

Yesterday evening I talked with my flatmate about "the terror" trying to explain the plot and the 1840s setting and lowkey hinting that I have a small crush on some of the characters and she was like "ahaha thats great it's not like it's just a bunch of middle aged men with beards-" my brother in christ that is literally half of the cast and they're serving cunt every second of screentime they get

[mmelolabelle]

we can call it even / even though I’m leaving / and I’ll be yours for the weekend

my theory about the reason Armand’s characterization in the amc show is being changed a little to not make him a better person necessarily, but to frame his evil actions in iwtv to be based in concretely sympathetic reasoning, is bcus Anne rice was open about having a lot of trouble figuring out who Armand was and what exactly she wanted to do with him (she didn’t rlly start to “understand him” until the vampire Armand), and so in the vampire lestat she set him up as an insane villain, specifically bcus she planned for him to be like akashas proxy in queen of the damned and to have a very villainous role, but she realized through writing devils minion that this wasn’t who Armand was and she couldn’t see him as a villain, and rlly re evaluated how she saw his role in the story overall. So what I think amc is aiming to do is combine the conflicting characterization Armand has gone through throughout the series into a more consistent guy who aligns more with Anne rices vision by the end of the series of who Armand was
