"just as I did, in 1983."
you'd never know my favourite parts of the show are the fucked up insane bits when my first instinct is to draw the cheesiest thing imaginable
#my art#interview with the vampire#iwtv amc#iwtv#armand iwtv#daniel molloy#armand#armandaniel#devils minion#drew this before the finale but idk maybe this is during the unspecified amount of time between armands divorce and daniels press tour#the titian painting doesnt fit at ALL with the timeline btw#i THOUGHT it did bc i assumed 1508 was when armand was turned into a vampire BUT upon reflection thats more likely the year he was born#and even then the painting was made in like 1510 so fuck me i guess. also im foggy on when armand was taken to rome#idk man i havent read the books and i failed art history on two separate occasions i cannot endeavor for accuracy#anyway as much as i love 70s/80s devils minion i have equal love for old man daniel#his cynicism has been tempered by time... refined like a diamond... he dont gaf and bullies his loser vampire and its hilarious#like ''sure yeah fine all these old italian renaissance guys saw ur ethereal otherworldly beauty but literally anybody can see that''#''IM the only mf who gets to experience the incandescent joy of seeing you be a messy idiot''#sidenote trying to make armand look unflattering is impossible u can blame the show for casting the worlds most beautiful man

why aren't there more mysteries that take place in nursing homes & retirement communities. i want to watch a group of deranged retirees-cum-amateur-detectives combine their powers of:
decades of life experience
boredom-fueled busybody shamelessness
access to the most gossipy next-door-neighbors in existence
"I am too old to be arrested and/or give a shit" attitude
and solve crimes. this should be an enormous subgenre.
#their sidekick/Watson/pet hacker is a 15 year old grandkid who hangs out with gram gram on the weekends#her only power is that she has above average search engine skills and flexible knees#which is completely sufficient to round out the group's skill set#they involve her in heist style operations#on the rare occasion she gets caught housebreaking she explains her grandma locked herself out of the condo and asked for help getting in#then this sweet slightly addled old lady shows up and explains she got the address mixed up#it's so confusing when you're old & all the houses look alike and oh she's so sorry to have caused so much trouble#and meanwhile the teenager is rolling her eyes bc she's aware gram gram was a career criminal & con artist for 50 years#anyway gimme a 80-year-old con artist turned amateur sleuth who loves getting older because people are less suspicious of little old ladies#this all takes place in florida naturally

Of course we know that Eddie is the big fantasy nerd, with his love of D&D, he was probably an avid reader of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and almost definitely made Wayne sit through numerous re-watches of The Wizard of Oz as a kid.
But when he gets together with Steve he realises that Steve 'the hair' Harrington isn't quite the meat-head jock that he remembers him to be in high school.
Eddie was flicking through the channels looking for something for them to watch when Steve comes in holding a bowl of popcorn in his hands as he scoots up close to Eddie.
"Hey, go back a minute, I think I saw something good." Steve says, tapping Eddie on the arm.
Eddie flicks back the channel and it lands on a re-run episode of the original series of Star Trek.
"Man, I used to be obsessed with this show as a kid." Steve says, throwing back a handful of popcorn. "Never missed an episode."
"Wait, you wanna watch Star Trek?" Eddie asked, raising his eyebrows at Steve's admission. His boyfriend was a secret geek.
"Yeah it's a good show. I think I even dressed up as Captain Kirk for Halloween one year. " scratch that Steve Harrington was a full on nerd.
"Sure, we can watch this." Eddie smirks, settling back against Steve.
"Hey, Eddie, did you ever watch that show about the alien in the time-travelling police box?"
It appears that the nerd-levels ran deep with Steve.
Eddie shakes his head at his boyfriend.
"Always watched that one too, actually, I still do." Steve smiles. "My grandma knitted me the long multicoloured scarf for Christmas when I was younger."
"Stevie, why didn't you tell me you were such a science fiction nerd?"
"You never asked."
Eddie might have been the fantasy lover between the two of them, but when it came down to it, Steve was most definitely the sci-fi geek.
#idk I just love the idea of Steve being a big sci-fi and space nerd#I know doctor who wasn't super popular in the us during the 60s/70s/80s but there were a few people who liked it..#..and I think Steve would have been an avid watcher of it#I also think it's funny that Eddie assumes Steve is a sports jock but Steve's just into everything sci-fi#steddie

kid ivan may be smaller than kid till, but what if ivan is the fastest kid in the garden
#alnst#alnst till#till#alnst ivan#ivan#ivantill#alien stage#alnst fanart#alien stage fanart#my art#not canon. HOWEVER. its a funny thought#imagine a child tinier than you coming at you like a bullet train#also i love it when artists draw kid ivan’s eyes and theyre 80% of his face#it adds charm and he looks like a little bug. a tiny creature (affectionate)

Meet Ingo’s partner!
The one and only!
A Litwick!
Litwick’s a panic capture and she knows it.
As a firm believer of half the depot agents in BW2 being either ghosts or pokemon (or both), a litwick with vague telepathy isn’t too out of question, me thinks.
Bonus:
Feel free to add any headcannons! This is lawless lands now. (click here for submas masterpost!)

Questions to ask if ever you have Byler doubt:
Do people seriously think that a show centered on nerds and social outcasts...
... shows how awful the popular kids can be...
... villainizes anti-gay bullies...
... sides against abusers...
... supports LGBT+ people...
... has interracial romance...
... embraces being different...
... turns an expected hetero romance into a beautiful platonic friendship...
... criticizes moral panic/evangelism...
... makes the "town freak" our hero...
... shows that love can overcome hate...
... and whose characters don't want to recreate the nuclear family...
... do we really think that show will let a suffering, traumatized gay boy's love be the device for a conventional white hetero couple to be the show's "main relationship"?
Has the show even set-up Mike and El, who met through trauma and circumstance while they were children and have repeatedly lied to each other, for a lifelong commitment?
Who's actually delusional?
And who sees this show for what it is? And what it's clearly setting up?
