OKAY, POST ABOUT THE VAMPIRE POLYCULE SO WE CAN TRADE POLYCULE LORE @whiteredrose13

I don't have completed designs of these characters because I keep changing the story location, BUT here are the most recent and weirdly faceless concept sketches

Here is a polycule map I made like a year ago to keep everyone's relationships on track (Eunice is Kartik's 89-year-old human gf btw) (this map is subject to change)

Xiuying Chen (she/her) immigrated to the US in the 1950s at age 20 and encountered Adam Turner and was persuaded into turning into a vampire. When Melody Turner found out and killed Adam, Melody and Xiuying actually lived together for a while. Their relationship scared Melody (because it was REAL), so the two separated in the 1960s.

Eddie Chen (he/him) was sired by his boyfriend Sam Richards in the early 1970s at age 24, but Sam was killed by hunters not long after. Vampires aren't exactly many in number, so he was very desparate to find others out there. He encountered Xiuying in the late 70s, and in the 80s, they got married <33

Eden Barlow (she/her) was sired by Ellis Turner (Adam Turner's "brother") in the 1990s at the age of 36. Ellis was not unlike Adam and was a serial adulterer, as well as Just Not Great to his wife, so Eden left him. She was less concerned about being alone, but once she encountered Kartik in the 2000s, discovered that she missed having company that understood her immortality.

Kartik Korrapati (he/him) was sired by his mother, Khivi, also in the 1990s at the age of 41. Khivi was sired by her boyfriend, Akalsimar, in her 30s after they ran away together. She returned after having regrets about abandoning Kartik and after not being able to conceive more children, and she asked Kartik to join her in eternal life. Eden and Kartik encountered Xiuying at a vampire fight club not too long after meeting.

Darcy Collins (she/they) was ALSO sired by Ellis Turner in the early 2000s at the age of 30, and she ALSO left Ellis for restricting her freedoms while persuing his own. Darcy is very social, and she encountered Xiuying and Eddie at a night club in the late 2000s.

Spencer Lee (she/they) is Xiuying's one and only fledgling and was sired in modern times at the age of 42. Spencer had been dating Xiuying and Eddie since the mid 2010s but was diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer. It was Spencer's decision to become a vampire.

THERE THEY GO AGAIN DRAWING THEIR STUPID VAMPIRES FROM THEIR SILLY VAMPIRE GAME

(Suggestive/body part related content in preview)

And finally my second preview for @sanguinevampirezine’s ferociously fresh 18+ add on 👀 If you like robots, vampires, and semi-sexual body horror (and are 18 or older) check out the add on content! And if not, check out the rest of the fangtastic works the main zine has to offer!

I had sUch a delight making this piece and I’m sOOOO EXCITED to get to share it auGgh!!! Preorders are open, go grab a copy now!

[ID and transcript: a preview for a zine add on story. The text is stylized, imposed on a red background splattered with blood. It reads: Shuffle Off That Metal Coil, written by Michael H.

He cannot shake the thought once it has taken hold. It is so simple, so right. The vision of fresh mass swelling within him makes L57PA keen in rushes of binary and spiking heat, muffled in the safety of his own mind and the padded walls of a storage closet.

Could his wires pump with more than volts? Could they grow full and warm and squeeze against his gears? Could his servos stain his chassis red with the fresh pink strain of muscle? The images whirr through his mind at night, his exhaust ports blowing in overtime. (End of preview snippet.)

The zine’s info is visible at the top and bottom of the image, reading: Sanguine, An Original Vampire Zine. Pre-orders now open. October 13th to November 26th. /end ID]

Queer eye for the undead guy: Or, queer reading Vampires

In this post I am going to be looking at vampires as an archetype through the lens of queer theory. I'm going to use queer time, gender stereotypical non-conformity, and symbolism.

Let’s get some technicalities out of the way: When I say ‘vampires’ I am exclusively talking about the blood-sucking, usually undead, type. Just because I am going to be discussing the inherent queerness of vampires as an archetype, does not mean I am suggesting all individual vampire characters are LGBTQIA+. This is going to be literary. It’s going to accessible (I hope) but at the end of the…

My favourite underrated thing about Louis de Point du Lac is that he truly is the least curious vampire to ever be made and he does not give fuck about vampires despite being one.

Its Claudia who goes to libraries, reads the folklore, tries to learn as much as she can and pushes Lestat for answers about who made him and where the others are. Claudia says Vampire Pride and Louis says hmmm Vampire Tolerance.

And Louis...truly does not care about vampire history,law, culture. He's never even thought to ask. There are vampire laws?...ok...Lestat never cared about them and he's not going to either, lol. He's broken a few and he will continue to do so. Oh you have a coven? he's not gonna join it, he's gonna do his own thing. but good for you good for you.

the 500+ year old Coven Leader, he's gonna call Louis, Maitre, actually.

He has fire powers? thats kinda cool. he'll learn that but only cause it lets him vent his feelings about Lestat.

Lestat and Armand say the name of the vampire queen in front of him and Lestat straight up says, "Louis has no idea who that is" and do you think Louis cares, outside of the fact that for some reason it means he can't kill Lestat? No! Do you think in the 77 years he's been with Armand he ever took 5 minutes to ask a follow up question? No!

Do you think he will care about Akasha in season 3? Doubt it! Outside of her obsession with Lestat, who is the only person left on the planet he seems to be able to filter Caring About This Shit through

He blatantly breaks the 3rd law and publishes a book about being a vampire and when the other vampires get pissed not only does he not apologise he literally sends them his location and says 'you wanna fight? lmao don't miss'

I love him. Daniel Molloy is gonna need to bring his A game because Louis will not be solving a single mystery next season, nor would it even occur to him to try.
