#if iwtv were less complex and juicy and sexy and SINGULAR. i could get more on board but all those characters are. tolstoy.

which characters do you think marc/valentino would be in a amc iwtv au? in terms of core character traits, dynamics, values, behavior, etc.

hmmmm i don’t know if i wanna do a one to one of iwtv with these little european men bc i think one of the SEXY things about iwtv is the interrogation of race in regards to its characters… truly it adds SO MUCH dimension and complexity to the story and it’s interpersonal dynamics. like it’s kinda intrinsic. also! a story that is deeply preoccupied with themes of abuse. i don’t wanna put that on rosquez, gothic romantic characters that they lowkey ARE in regards to each other… so i don’t think i can just plug em into the framework and watch them spin

thattttttt all being said i DO think a vampire au can be exceedingly sexy (and quite a few of them DO exist) and we can do some tiny baby comparisons (lestat being so scared of being LONELY very marc to me. memory being a monster very both of them. vale would use his time as an immortal vampire to become a rockstar. also his self admitted madonna complex. etc.) one of the hashtag hotandsexy things we can get that makes thematic sense a rosquez sense is. vale turning marc. in a way he did make marc immortal in real life by being an inspiration. so. flamboyant rake vale turning marc because he yearns for a protege (UNDERDISCUSSED in current rosquez scholarship is the somewhat. academy adjacent vibes he had with marc in 2013/14. he ENJOYED marc as a potential overtaker of his legacy he LIKED him….) and teaching him the ropes of vampirism until marc abruptly gets WAY powerful WAY quickly and vale is like hm. don’t like that. and pushes him away when he’s not as dependent on vale to show him the ropes… lots of sexy lead up to the turning (i think marc wants it BAD and things get psycho level slutty. lots of crazy sex quite a few fights vale NOT wanting to turn marc bc it might KILL HIM and marc seeing there’s a way for him to br young and hot and healthy and with vale forever and being like okay. no brainer.) and then they’re estranged exes building rival covens (academy. BURNS marc when he finds out… you’re okay with companions when they’re BENEATH YOUU. marc turns alex and no one elseeeeeee…) and having sex in their minds fully clothed and across the room from each other
