Hello. Your Come (Back) to Me fic was one my most memorable fics. Will you make a fic rec list of some of your most memorable fics and why you enjoyed them.

Thank you so much for this. I'm very proud of Come (Back) to Me. I've loved "Somewhere in Time" for as long as I love VC, 30 years now. That epic love story merged with Loustat just wrote itself and to know that people derive joy from it makes me feel so so happy!

Memorable fics rec! The most important thing I find for why I love a fic is when I can feel that it is written with respect and love for the characters.

So I'm listing the fics this way:

1. Loustat Human AU that stay firmly in character. When you read, and you can hear their true voices and believe their actions to be those of Loustat's.

@angstosaur Star-Crossed Lovers my first ever human Loustat fic. Lovely.

@riley-beautrelle Perfect Loustat met up in a holiday spot and true to character, fall head-over-heels for each other big time.

dolphinspirit I Hate You But I Love You More Loustat working on marriage, so much love, growth and healing.

2. Loustat fics that are absolutely hysterical (sometimes OOC) but so well-written with so much love and knowledge of VC (I absolutely adore funny Loustat)

@siahatha Renaissance Lestat in therapy so many memorable clever scenes dealing with anger and eating-disorder

cherborowitz In Spite of All My Faults Loustat x Emma+Clueless

@graygiantess and chxmpxgneproblems What, Like It's Hard? Loustat x Legally Blonde

murfrumbles AMC IWTV Omegaverse I firmly believe that this writer should take over writing for Mayfair Witches tv show bc their knowledge of VC and MW is incredible and omg I couldn't stop laughing and I agree with every word!

3. Loustat vampires AU that are canon-compliant and written to fill in the gaps or go beyond.

@riley-beautrelle For a Young Violinist Nickistat, gorgeous, atmospheric, written with so much love. Comfort despite the inevitable pain

@nalyra-dreaming Monstrous are what Monsters Be Lestat talks to Louis about Magnus, haunting, harrowing, healing

@prouvaireafterdark Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame Lestat being Dr Fareed's guinea pig for sexperiment. Hurt-comfort, very smutty very loving and complete with beautiful artworks

@lesfleursrouges Bitter is the Sorrow Louis is haunted by Lestat, painful and exquisite

@virginiaisforvampires All of You Lestat has nightmares about Akasha and Louis comforts him, short but satisfying.

@thefairylights Whatever Our Souls are Made Out of~ Loustat reunited in modern days, working out their problems, fluffy and loving

literary_genius Making it Work Loustat trying to make their relationship work.

I'm missing so many. But everyone, please do reblog and mention your most memorable fics. Let's give some love for older, memorable fics.

12 Nights of Christmas - Day 9: This is Our Get-Along Christmas Sweater

https://archiveofourown.org/works/61527946

Challenge: Vamptember's 12 Nights of Christmas

Day 9 Prompt: Ugly Christmas Sweater

Pairings: Lestat de Lioncourt/Louis de Pointe du Lac and Daniel Molloy/Armand (Devil's Minion)

Rating: Mature

Words: 2,490

Lestat was standing in front of Louis, wearing the tightest leather pants he owned, a pair of bedazzled platform boots, and a bright green Christmas sweater with a picture of Santa in a pair of sunglasses and the words ‘I do it for the hos’ emblazoned across the front of it. “But Louis, I thought you liked me in these pants,” Lestat said with a wink, a smirk, and a wiggle of his leather-clad ass. “It’s not the pants I have an issue with, Lestat.”

After yesterday's unhinged horniness, today we take a turn for the silly. I present, a fic in which our favourite vampires keep buying increasingly stupid Christmas sweaters for each other.

Enjoy!

Written for @vampirefest's kinktober and the prompt: coffin

There’s a dent on Louis’ coffin. On top, too large to ignore, only visible when it’s shut. The dent protrudes through its polished exterior, reflects flame all wrong as if it’s bleeding light.

impulsively i decided that i was going to fill this prompt as well as those i have upcoming. so yay impulsivity! 🩸

I was just minding my business, sitting here with my morning coffee and wondering about how I'm going to flesh out my next plot point when the random thought train took over my brain and sent me down a spiral wondering where my indirect influences for the fic I'm writing came from. Anywho, I realized something interesting. I was WAY into Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles series when I was a kid, and I gave the first few books a re-read when the new IWTV show came out. I think the way Anne takes the antagonist of one book, and flips them into the protagonist of their next book has had a lasting impact on me and the way I view media. I already generally gravitate to antagonists and anti-heroes (they're just so much more interesting!) and so I, like many others, was immediately down bad for Lestat even when he was pulling all sorts of fuckery with Louis in the first book anyway; but gah-dayum did that interest morph into full on favoritism when the next two books slammed him into protagonist mode. The same thing happened with Armand. He was interesting but a bit annoying in the first novel, but grew to become my second favorite character in the entire series as Anne revealed his story in full. When you're sucked into one of the previous antagonist's POV and history, suddenly things seem so much more grey. Sometimes that means we're provided context we were lacking- sometimes we learn the true motivations of a character instead of what the previous protags just assumed was the case - etc... I'm usually not fan of antagonists who are just 'evil for the sake of evil' and really have no true motivation for their actions other than 'bad is good', so I think that rubbed off on the way I experience media. I'm typically always on the alert for hidden context clues, red herrings, or angles that the story could take in the future to re-contextualize the status quo. Anyway, there is no real point to this post. It's just something I was thinking of and found interesting enough to scream into the void of the internet ;)

Basically, Loustat blowjob fic to soothe my depressed soul.

I mentioned it on my Tumblr but I lost half of my chapter for the newest update of Suckerpunch and it made me incredibly sad. Instead of trying to write it again I ended up finishing this. It’s silly and helped to raise my spirits enough.

summary: Lestat is always losing his phones and Louis is tired of replacing them.

There's been 2 Lestat POV fics that I've enjoyed recently.

Roadkill by baberainbow and nlbv - Missing moment during ep 4. Two of best author's in the game. Honestly I don't know how this team up happened but we are blessed that it did.

Drunk On You by cococris - Takes place around ep 2. It's part 1 of 2 but don't let the unfinished status deter you because it's also good.

i am going to write a xmas iwtc fic. the year i did it for the magicians really made me feel in the holiday spirit, so maybe it'll cheer me up. now to find a plot. maybe something with fake dating? idk yet

My new story and the first one I wrote in the IWTV fandom:

🎬 💭 🧪

🎬 If a movie or show were based on your fic, which fic would you choose and who would you fancast?

Oh, this one is hard. I'd probably choose my iwtc fic Remembrance, which is a season one au where the events of devil's minion happened in the 70s, but Daniel remembers them. As for cast, I'd just keep the same actors already cast in the show

💭 What inspires you and your writing?

I wish I knew, so I could access it at will. Sometimes I just get an idea from nowhere and have to write it.

🧪 Do you research for your fics?

I do. Usually that involves consulting the source material or wiki, but sometimes I find myself looking up the most random shit.
