SNAIL. HOLY SHIT. Your writing is stellar every time! Barto really needs a dom in his life! And ROBIN AND NAMI just being the best wingwomen to reader just made my LIFE! Thank you as always for the wonderful writing you share with us ❤️❤️❤️ (vampire law anon)

Vampire Law anon!! Thank you so much 🎉🎉🎉!! Besties looking out for one another is one of my favourite things to write for. They're supporting each other and being all sweet together 🥹.

Also, look at him.

He's just a big, sweet puppy dog. He needs all the love he can get.

[dark-side-blog3]

had a dream where law school student dio was stepping on me and degrading me in a sweet way after we both got stuck inside of california, pretty interesting-📱

Stuck in California like... Was there a force field or ya'lls paperwork didn't work? If it's the later, I'm looking at the man who's ID says he was born in the 1800's. That's not the point of this confession--

Law school student Dio stepping on someone he's taken out to the desert is so shady but kinda hot... He's keeping his shoes and socks on obviously, but at least there is indeed trampling action.

You're very lucky to have such a dream, cellphone anon!

We decided to go with an internal candidate

ooh. good wordplay. yes. the debate was

buffy or svu for my nightly binge.

[toscrollperchancetomeme]

Excepting the ancient Egyptian ones, POC vampires are sadly very few and far between in the books. On the top of my head, I can think of Arjun (by Pandora), Fareed (by Seth), Benji (by Marius), Merrick (by Louis) and Davis (by Killer). (Not counting David Talbot for obvious reasons.)

I’m probably missing some, but the point is - these characters have a type because the writer who invented them had a type.

So yeah… the thing is… Anne Rice made quite a few decisions while writing. Some were hugely transgressive. Some were a banal product of being a white writer of her time and not that unusual compared to other white authors of the period. Yet there is a trend atm to pin 90% of her more questionable writing decisions on Marius and just gloss over them when it comes to other characters.

Also something for anon to consider is that Marius is from Ancient Rome and while there were of course a lot of screwed up things about that time and place (a lot of which influence his mindset), they were really chill about skin color. You know what they really hated though? Christian sects! Marius is older than these rules and he had many reasons to despise the satanist covens even before they destroyed his life in Venice.

(Another thing: Apart from his complicated feelings for Akasha, who he of course deifys, Marius really adores Avicus, even back in Ancient Rome. Who is also dark skinned and his elder. He truly doesn’t care about skin color.)

i'm a bit afraid to ask because it's a bit of a dumb question made from things I have read here and there.

I'm a show only but you know someone has translated the great laws and one part is to not make ''african'' vampires and if remember reading correctly somewhere else Marius is really into making vampires from pretty,white, athletic humans?

Do you think the fact that Lestat made 2 black vampires will have an impact on his relationship with Marius ?

What do you think will be Louis and Marius relationship?

Do they even interract together in the books?

(There's no dumb questions 🥰)

So... the only post about the vampiric laws being translated that I know of (!) is this one:

The law you refer to is this one, number 82:

Lamia in alias formas inc..sa europaea mutare poterit sed numquam in …rundom africanum vertere poteris. A vampire in other forms … European … will be able to change but never in … African … will be able to turn.***

Now, I would like to point out, that these laws are show only. The books only ever name the first (big) five.

I think that is important to keep in mind.

Also, the laws of the Children of Darkness are not the ones of Marius or other vampires. The Children of Darkness are a satanic (christian) cult who think they need to serve god as the embodiment of demons. They attack Marius for his more "freer" way of living(!) and kidnap Armand... and break him.

And brainwash him, for centuries.

So. While that statement certainly seems to imply... it actually does not make much sense to me within the grander scheme, because Akasha and Enkil ruled out of Egypt, and the first blood drinkers are very much and firmly rooted in the African continent.

The fact that Marius made Armand also contradicts the (intention of the) rule and his stance on the matter, imho.

Looking at some of the other rules, it becomes clear though that the cult really was into controlling in a very specific manner: Rule 65+ are about all kinds of pleasure being forbidden. Rule 52: A vampire will not know joy.

... yeah. Armand had a really fun time with them until Lestat came along -.-

So. As a reminder, these laws are NOT the ones Marius or even the majority of the covens live by. They are the ones certain covens lived by, and which these covens tried to enforce.

Typical religious cult behavior. -.-

That said, the show adding these rules is no coincidence, of course. And especially that rule no. 82. Though, again, it does not make much sense to me, not even within the universe or show context, because what makes the vampires "white" (book canonically) over the millennia is not their skin color but the mutation of their cells into plastic. But that just as a note.

And, given the coven in Paris contained black and POC vampires...???

Armand at least in the theater times did not believe those laws anymore either.

The show might have added that rule though to show some do.

That will remain to be seen - and it would then be the equivalent of very real mind sets, unfortunately. -.-

But, as said, it doesn't make much sense in the universe, outside their intention to draw certain parallels.

---

So no, given who created these laws and what they do (not) mean for Marius, I do not think Lestat will have any problems having created two black vampires.

They weren't even the only black vampires created after all, nor far from the "first".

As per Louis and Marius... They share rooms sometimes, and both Louis and Marius are present for big events. But they... don't really engage much.

And I don't really expect this to be much different here as well.

Because I think Louis very much (also) blamed Marius for abandoning Armand to the cult ... and what happened then, as a result of it, at least low-key. It is never said, but... there is a certain chain of events, which does have repercussions after all.

[whumpsday]

you got an ask about this like, a year ago (and absolutely feel free to ignore this if you want to) but could we get a drabble of jim holding human!kane's hand as he introduces him to the sun sometime?🥺

takes place after chapter 18 but before chapter 52

Chronological masterlist / Writing order masterlist

content: impossible "anon magic"-type AU, recovery, comfort, referenced past torture

-

No one could explain it. One day, Kane woke up as a human, and that was that.

Jim had expected Kane to freak out, and he did a little, of course. But overall, it was a relief to them both. Kane made no secret of how overjoyed he was at the development. Despite his shortened lifespan and decreased strength, Kane was all-too-pleased with his new species. Where Jim considered being human a vulnerability, Kane could only find safety.

No risk of future hostility from the hunters that had hurt him. Protection under human territory law. The ability to eat regular food. No danger from the sun. As Kane told it, he even considered the lack of immortality a boon, his ability to experience pain capped below where it was for a vampire–his new form would perish long before it could ever experience being burned alive for days on end.

Of course, he'd freed Kane immediately, now that he posed no danger, but Kane had nowhere to go. He couldn’t exactly return to vampire territory. So he'd just... stayed. That was alright, Jim supposed. He’d already gotten used to having him around, and he didn't even have to feed him his blood anymore. He couldn’t bear the thought of forcing him to navigate the world all on his own as a new human.

Plus, he had to admit that watching Kane's face light up whenever he tried a new food was endearing.

Kane never left the house. Not during the night, when Jim warned him to be extra-careful of the new danger of vampires now that he was human, and certainly not during the day. Despite his freshly human skin, Kane remained utterly terrified of the sun.

Months after the change, it was taking his toll. Jim knew what that was like, the fatigue he’d experienced after Kane kept him away from the sun for the five years of his captivity. Kane was human now, and had never had a drop of healthy sunlight in his entire life.

So, after weeks of gentle coaxing, here they were.

Kane stood petrified in the living room as Jim slowly opened the curtain, firmly in the shade as natural light flooded into the room.

"It's okay," Jim said softly, stepping into the sun himself, warm and pleasant on his skin.

Kane stared at him wide-eyed and frozen, like he'd rather stepped into a cloud of poison.

"Here.” Jim extended an ar out of the sunned area, offering it. “Take my hand. We’ll do it together. It’ll be okay.”

“What if– what if I burn anyway?” Kane asked, making no attempt to come nearer.

“We’ll go slow. Just a fingertip, and if you burn, you can go right back out again. No one’s gonna make you stay in the sun. I’m not gonna make you stay in the sun.” Jim kept his hand out, waiting. “C’mon. You can’t put it off forever, humans need sun. It’ll be okay. No hurting.”

Kane, to his credit, took a tiny step forward. “You won’t pull me?” he asked, his voice small. He looked so much more vulnerable as a human, and he’d already looked plenty vulnerable before.

“Swear on my life, man. No pulling. You set the pace.” Jim beckoned him closer. “C’mon. You’re doing great.”

The little bit of praise seemed to motivate him, and Kane stepped closer still. His eyes crept away from Jim, to the unshielded window, following the ray of sunshine across the room until he lost his nerve. “I’m sorry. I can’t. I’m sorry, no no no, please don’t make me, I can’t!”

“It’s okay.” Jim stepped out of the sunbeam, going to Kane and taking his hand in the shade. “Not gonna make you do anything. It’s all you, remember?”

Kane gripped his hand lightly, still used to moderating vampiric strength he no longer possessed. “I’m sorry for being so difficult.”

“Pssh. After what you’ve been through, I’d be surprised if this wasn’t difficult. You’re doing great just by trying. Promise,” Jim assured him, giving his hand a squeeze. “I was difficult too, doing stuff for the first time. Gave Liz a headache taking me to the doctor when I had to get my blood drawn. But look at me now, I was doing it every day for your breakfast before you got all human-y. You’ve got this.”

It was something Jim had often felt ashamed of. But now, seeing Kane struggle too… maybe this stuff was just hard, and that’s fine.

Kane nodded slowly, taking his hand back. “Okay. Okay. I’ve got this. I–I’m going to do it.”

Breath held, he slowly closed the gap with one pointer finger outstretched. He finally touched the tip of his finger to the sun–and shrieked, pulling it back instantly and clutching it in his other hand.

“Shit! Are you hurt?” Jim asked. “For the life of me, I swear I totally thought it wouldn’t hurt you. You’re completely human in every other way. Oh my god, Kane, I–”

“It didn’t hurt,” Kane said softly, uncurling his hand to stare at his unharmed finger. “I’m sorry. I don’t know why I did that. I thought it would hurt.”

Jim sighed with relief, giving Kane a pat on the shoulder. “Well, that’s good. Just nerves, then. You wanna try a little more?”

Kane hesitated, but nodded after a moment. “Alright. I’ll try.”

Jim walked back into the sun, holding his hand out into the shade. “Just come on over to me.”

With a deep breath, Kane took his hand. It was shaking, now, but Jim held it securely, hoping it’d make the guy feel a little safer. “I won’t pull you. You come to me.”

And he did. Inch by inch, his hand crept into the sun. There was no burst of pain, no burns blooming across his skin. The sun felt… pleasant, somehow, like a warm bath made of air. It was like nothing he’d ever felt before. Despite the terror, his body seemed to yearn for more, wanting to bask in it.

He stepped forward all at once, into Jim’s arms.

i'm back!! expect more writing soon!! ty to the anon who sent this ask and this anon who somehow shook me out of my slump

[nightcolorz]

if u are comfortable with this topic, do u have any thoughts about (tw: marius) how armand would think about what happened with marius in his early life? would he eventually think of it as csa or would he be uncomfortable thinking of it (or himself) in that way. in canon it seems he thinks of it as a “positive” contrast to his assault by slavers. but at the same time he describes being very helpless and not even totally understanding what is happening at first. and the conflict over marius denying him the chance at a normal life and isolating him from humanity could almost be a metaphor for grooming and abuse.

hi anon!!! I’m happy to talk about this 🙏 amazing question. Tw sa and csa talk, obvs.

While I like the idea of Armand being able to process his relationship with Marius as traumatic, I’m not sure if he could ever rlly reach that point (at least book-wise). Armand has a warped perception of the type of dignity/autonomy/right to feel comfortable, safe, etc that he is entitled to as a person. He was so deprived of that type of basic respect in childhood + his whole life that he isn’t able to rlly conceptualize being deprived of these things as “wrong”. He has internalized himself as sort of an inherently lesser commodity that will always be used for other’s gain. And so with this in mind he has a sort of “beggars can’t be choosers” view of kindness and love. So with Marius, I don’t think he registers the sexual abuse as bad since he was non consenting bcus he doesn’t understand bodily autonomy as smth he’s entitled to or something he expects to have. Also, since Armand sees Marius as so good, loving, merciful, etc, he can’t rlly wrap his head around him being abusive. Armand thinks of Marius as his loving father + the love of his life who saved him from human trafficking and took him under his wing, and I think bcus of how highly he regards these actions, any abuse he’s put through is thought of as an acceptable exchange for everything he has been gifted.

Bcus of how Armand doesn’t see Marius having sex with him as a child as abusive, u can see he has this disconnect as an adult when interacting with Marius where he feels the affects of the abuse but doesn’t understand why they are there. In the vampire Armand he recognizes that he is uncomfortable around Marius and hesitant to trust him or interact with him, but he doesn’t know why he feels this way, and seems to consider it an irrational reaction he should get past. I think Armand definitely knows to an extent that Marius mistreated him (tho I don’t think he considers their sexual relationship part of this), but I think he doesn’t feel any real resentment or conscious grief over this resentment, again bcus he never felt that he was entitled to being treated well in the first place.

Marius is more aware of how he has wronged Armand then Armand is 😭 and I think if they were to discuss this Armand would find it unsettling or even angering. Armand definitely grieves being deprived of his humanity, but he I think sees it more as a tragic inevitability than a fault of Marius’s, while Marius definitely sees it as his fault. If Marius were to apologize to Armand for turning him so young I think Armand would get rlly upset, partly bcus he would find the implication that Marius regrets keeping him alive super offensive and devastating, and partly bcus he would find the explicit acknowledgment that his gracious caregiver did not have his best interest at heart and acted in ways he knew were selfish and would harm Armand, earth shattering. It’s more comfortable for Armand to believe that he wasn’t being abused by the one person he believes ever cared for him, then to recognize that so many of his issues were willfully caused by him.

I think that by post canon Armand would definitely be aware that by modern standards of morality and law his relationship with Marius as a child would be seen as predatory and sexually abusive, but I don’t think this would influence how he perceives it very much. I think he’d be able to reach the place where he recognizes that it is always harmful for children to have sex with adults, but I think he’d continue to see Marius and him as this single expectation to this fact that somehow made it out fine, bcus of time period or vampirism or whatever yada yada. Being sexually abused by Marius contributed heavily to Armand discovering his sexuality and learning how to have relationships, and even tho it was definitely traumatic, I think Armand considers it a necessary trauma that taught and shaped him more then it scarred him. Armand resents Marius for abandoning him after he was kidnapped by the children of darkness, and for depriving him of being his companion (cough cough bcus marius doesn’t respect him or care for him as an equal or individual cough cough), but I don’t think he is able to recognize that the sexual abuse was just as harmful and a part of this behavior.

I also have a feeling that Armand doesn’t want to acknowledge that being sexually abused by Marius was wrong bcus he feels at fault for it (since he enjoyed it and willfully took part in it as he got older), so I imagine bcus of his deep seated religious guilt and shame he sees himself more as an instigator for sexual violence bcus of his “seduction” then a victim of it. Which I definitely relate to! Armand is such a greatly upsetting example of how complex cases of sexual abuse and grooming can be hard to cope with by victims who felt that they enjoyed it, initiated it, etc. Our culture sees sexual abuse as this very straightforward rapist vs victim scenario, when in reality it is often much more complex, often with victims who have positive feelings towards their abusers or felt that they asked for/enjoyed the abuse. Armand has experienced the straightforward blameless type of sexual abuse, and he has experienced the complex kind, and part of his trouble with recognizing that both were abuse comes from how limited the understanding of sa was in his time. I also think that he refuses to acknowledge that his relationship with Marius was sexually abusive bcus he finds it more comforting and empowering to think of it as beneficial then abusive. The reality that Armand was sexually abused for his entire life until he was turned is probably sm more difficult to accept then he was sexually abused in his early life and then rescued from it by Marius.

even tho Armand isn’t able to consciously acknowledge that Marius abused him, that trauma definitely lives in his body and affects him daily. The lesson that Marius taught him by having sex with him the first night he took him home is that for Armand, love is inherently transactional and inherently selfish. Ppl who love u r entitled to use u, being made to feel helpless, scared, hurt, etc by someone who loves u is normal and part of the deal, giving up ur bodily autonomy in a relationship is part of loving, love is pain and sex is meant to hurt you, etc. and all of these internalizations are a major factor in how fucked up all of Armand’s romances r 😭 and how much trouble he has with attachment and keeping up healthy relationships. He sees his relationship with marius as the blueprint 😭💔 Marius was his father, and he is always clinging to these life truths his father taught him in childhood.

I like to imagine it is possible for Armand to heal from this abuse, and to accept that it was abuse, but the reason I hesitate to picture it is bcus of how incredibly difficult it would be for him. To heal, Armand would have to literally rework the foundation his entire worldview, and to reassess his entire sense of self and (already fragile) understanding of his own life and how it’s affected him. Someone needs to get him a good therapist, cuz oh boy, that is not the kind of work anyone, let alone someone like Armand, can do independently.

thank u sm for the ask I loved writing and thinking about this!!!! Anon u r so so sweet to be so considerate towards me, but for further reference I love to and am very comfortable analyzing and talking about Armand’s history of abuse, and anyone is free to send me asks prompting me to go into depth about it. Thank u again anon ❤️❤️

Helloo do u have any Lawlu + Doffy fic recs (any content rating)? the interactions between those 3 are always so good. Just looove how you write them in your fics!

Why yes, yes I do!

"though the stars may tell us it is so" by pascaliana (T)

Doffy’s a monster, Cora-san had said more than once and Law always wondered but never asked, What does that make me? - In which soulmates are a sacred bond and Law's soulmate is Doflamingo.

"a victory every year" by @betsib (T)

Law finds himself imprisoned in Impel Down, injured and possibly dying. His only company is Doflamingo, who tells him Luffy has been captured too. All in all, not the best way to spend his birthday.

"(Love Will Find a Way) Where Wolves Fear to Prey" by betsib (M)

For the last eight years, Law has been held captive by Donquixote Doflamingo, forced to spend his days as a bunny and his nights in Doflamingo's bed. One day, he sees his chance to flee. A little while later, Luffy finds a lost little bunny on the streets and takes him home.

(Side note: I beta'd this one!)

"as I hold your hollow heart" by @betsib (M)

The Straw Hats pick up Bepo and an unconscious Law after the events at Winner Island. Luffy is more than ready to help him, but when Law opens his eyes, he is a stranger. Meanwhile, Law wakes up in Dressrosa, with Doflamingo's symbol tattooed on his chest and servants calling him "Corazon".

"My Heart Is Still Beating (But I Lost It Long Ago)" by betsib (E)

Law is travelling alone between quarantine zones when he comes across a young man with three bullets in his torso and an unflinching look in his eyes.

"A Smile In My Veins" by @betsib (M)

Law is doing his best to live his life and ignore the fact that he is, technically, no longer alive at all. All he wants is a momentary distraction. Luffy is investigating a series of murders that look like they were caused by vampires, but something seems strange about it. He needs more information. They meet in a bar.

(This is the first fic of betsib's that I ever read, and I knew we had to be friends because our brains are on the same wavelength.)

"Hunger for the Absolute" by ObsidionWingsofMidnight (NR)

When Law woke up from his 500 year slumber, he sure as hell wasn't expecting to get a husband out of it. He also wasn’t expecting to learn that he’d lost a chunk of his memories, or that he’d made new friends during this forgotten time. The marriage thing was weird though. To a king, no less. A very loud, very boisterous, very tactile king that never seemed to stop laughing. And what kind of king wore a straw hat anyway? To top it all off, he still has a million other things to take care of, not the least of which is helping his new husband to secure their kingdom against oncoming threats. But what Law doesn’t know is that there are more dangers lurking than he realizes. Ones from his past that have hidden for centuries, waiting for the right moment to strike. And he’ll need all the help he can get to keep them from consuming him.

"Roll Like Thunder, Burn Like Stars" by killingmonsterswritingthings (M)

Law is a private investigator trying everything to forget his past. But there's ties he can't cut - especially when his past comes back to haunt him in a case. or   “Why do you keep purposefully triggering yourself?” Corazón asked, his voice too close despite the tinny effect of the phone. “I'm still talking to you, aren't I?” Law spat back. It was a terrible thing to say but it was also the only thing he could say without making his hands shake uncontrollably.

(I am absolutely obsessed with this Jessica Jones AU; I've reread it countless times, and it has a vice-like grip on my soul. It hasn't updated in six years, though, sob.)

Enjoy, anon!

I can show you his baby pictures to show you he wasn't born at the dawn of life 💀💀💀 lemme find the hideous ones.

He's always been a beastly individual, and I love that for him. Selkirk Rex's just look like that sometimes. At least he's affectionate to make up for his look.

No thoughts in those crusty eyes. Only desire for booty slaps: his preferred method of affection.

Love you, Vampire Law Anon 🖤

[thecarnivorousmuffinmeta]

When I read the Twilight series for the first time, it never occurred to me that Aro was ever the villain at all, I actually loved him in New Moon and was confused over Edward throwing a fit. I mean Bella wants to be a vampire and Aro was very supportive towards that! He even let them go without any punishment when Edward was literally a second away from breaking the law.

Even in Breaking Dawn he seemed fine, it was mostly Caius that wanted to kill the Cullens and co. so bad.

Eclipse felt the closest to hinting that maaaaybe the Volturi isn't all that it seems but the stalling order never felt like an order Aro gave out, he fucking adores Carlisle and he literally spared Edward, Bella and Alice in New Moon when he didn't need to, there was no reason for him to suddenly go "wait no I changed my mind"

It wasn't until the movies where it hit me that he was supposed to be a villain. It's really funny how Meyer failed so bad at making him evil.

I'm glad to have stumbled upon your and Vinelle's metas and find that I'm not the only one who thinks Aro isn't the villain. I really enjoy reading them. Like once I stayed up all night going through your metas and didn't realise it until I wondered why my room was getting brighter lol. They're addictive.

Thank you, anon! Glad you enjoy the blog so much. Look, @therealvinelle, praise!

For what it's worth, that's actually one of the things I really like about Twilight. There aren't really villains in the traditional sense of the term, people with conflicting interests, some less understandable than others, but they all have reasons for what they do and none are exactly Sheev Palpatine. It's not something you see a lot of, especially in YA land (there are exceptions but they're relatively few), and it's always nice to see even if Meyer didn't intend it.

[indras-wife]

HIIIII!!! I am just discovering your page and I LOVE it! You write the characters so nicely! And do you accept requests now? If you do, can I ask for vampire headcanons or maybe oneshots of the uchihas? I would love seeing them in your style.

Thank youuuu!

Thank you for nice words anon~<3 OUUUU Vampire Uchihas~ I always thought that they fit the whole aesthetic of vampires perfectly! Dark, gloomy, sometimes merciless and always alert.

༊*·˚ Characters included: Indra Otsutsuki, Madara Uchiha, Izuna Uchiha ༊*·˚

Indra

As a vampire Indra is still the same: pretty antisocial, distant and rude. He does not bother himself talk with humans and interact with them. Only does it when his thirst for blood is no longer possible to ignore.

As the first of his clan, who got turned into a vampire, he has crazy powers: shapeshifting, mind manipulation, powers to control darkness. His eyes, of course, keep their red color, but he wears contact lenses to not grab the attention of people around him.

When he needs a new prey to feed on, Indra has his tactics to get what he wants. He goes after women for obvious reasons. The women who become his pray are usually those, whose absence their friends, families will not notice as they don't have any

He only prefers blood that is clean and not "contaminated" with alcohol, drugs and other substances. If he tastes any of those in blood, he will just instantly kill his prey without second thoughts.

Indra despises humans, viewing all of them as creatures that should not exist. However, when quenching his thirst, he isn't as barbaric as one would think. He casts sleeping spell on the victim, granting them painless experience. If he is very thirsty and cannot stop himself from draining their blood, his method helps the innocent victim experience painless death.

Madara

A complete lunatic. Lives a double life. At mornings, he is a beloved CEO of a big Law firm, at night he is the monster of the city, known to snatch people in an instant.

Madara LOVES hunting for his preys, but he also has different alternatives to get his blood. His wits, reputation and knowledge allowed him to work with Mafia to get fresh preys without dirtying his hands and cutting his work.

This man has no remorse for his prays. Literally. He kills them the most brutal way possible. If he is in a good mood, he might toy with them, giving them a hope he will set them free. He may sometimes let his preys run in his big garden, but of course he catches them one by one in a second. If he is in a bad mood, his long and sharp nail is what he needs to cut the throats of the preys and drink the blood.

He may sometimes use his abilities to take revenge from those who disrespected him, be it a woman or a man. He has some nice abilities like shapeshifting, teleportation, superhuman strength and mind control, so doing what it takes to satisfy his anger is all this man needs.

He also targets women as his usuals preys. He however, never touches children, and teenagers. Even as a vampire this man has morals and no way he would abandon them for his thirst.

Izuna

Izuna is the type of vampire that conceals his identity very well. He tries to not even show them at night because of his job in the hospital.

His brother is a CEO of a big and successful Law Firm, but he doesnt care. He wants to create his own path in life. As he is immortal, the amount of knowledge that he accumulated during all those years help him rise up rapidly in his preferred field of study.

Working as doctor has his benefits for Izuna: he NEVER goes hungry. The hospital has large amount of blood supplies, which he can consume when he wants. Of course, this young man has self-control and is very discreet about stealing the blood supplies.

He tries not to hunt humans because its his job saving them, but when the hunger hits, Izuna has very little control. If he doesnt feed he will lose all his senses and that will be very problematic for him, his brother and everyone else.

Izuna does not have a specific group of people whom he targets. When he hunts, he takes the first person who he sees and feels will be easy to deal with. Tries to finish the job as fast as possible. He feels extra guilty for his action, thus he punishes himself with creating more work and sleepless nights for him.

"Parallel universe.

"In 1905, Parisian brothel owner Lestat de Lioncourt keeps his ungrateful brothers and father, and his frail mother, in comfort despite hating his life. When his new acquaintance, wealthy American Louis de Pointe du Lac, comes on so strong, he starts to think life could be different. There is an air of the preternatural about him, but Americans are probably just like that?

"Vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac searches for a new life in the old world and finds a handsome man with a most agreeable disposition who he wants to convince to become his companion. Life certainly wouldn't be boring."

--

Armand/Daniel Molloy

"Minimal or no Devil’s Minion before 2022. Armand turns Daniel out of spite, but Daniel takes to vampirism immediately and revels in his newfound strength and immense power. And Daniel is so psyched about this new un-life that he kisses Armand, who kisses him back passionately. He then fucks Armand all around the penthouse and gives him the best dick he’s had in centuries. Armand is terribly confused by this intense, feverish passion between them, over thinks it, and flees out of self-preservation. and naturally Daniel gives chase!"

"Claudia has never forgiven Lestat for not using his magic to bring back her first love, Charlie, years ago, but he hopes he can make amends by introducing her to a beloved fellow countrywoman from his homeland who was…exiled…for being…a traitor?? Louis wants to know what the fuck is wrong with Lestat's head."

"While traveling Europe with Claudia, Louis hallucinates(/fantasizes about?) Lestat forcing himself on him.

"Can be violent or just disturbing, can be physical assault (I know the hallucinations don't work like that but we can suspend our disbelief) or not include touching at all. Up to you how aware Louis is that the hallucination is his own mind torturing him. The important part is that Louis is really messed up and can only get off while also punishing himself. Bonus points for Lestat being in his bloody post-Mardi Gras outfit, throat slit and bleeding and all."

--

Armand/Lestat de Lioncourt Accidental Marriage, Accidental Bonding, Dubious Consent

"1795 AU. The Great Laws this, The Great Laws that. Magnus never told Lestat that when another vampire overpowers you with a bite soon after your turning, your body imprints on them and you become vampire-married.

Do you think there needs to be a minimal amount of venom or a specific concentration of it to turn someone?

My thought was that a single bite is enough to turn an adult and since Twilight vampires don't have fangs that directly inject the venom it must be the little amount of saliva that's on their teeth that does it. So you dont need much but could one vampire spit into a town's water supply and turn a bunch of people that way?

Granted, it'd be a horribly inefficient way of doing it IF it works in the first place (the person needs a cut or other small injury for the venom to enter the bloodstream, no control over who turns and who doesn't, you might end up with 20 newborns at once and have the volturi come after you etc.) but the potential for chaos is so delicious. Also it'd be really funny if that inspired another law: 1. keep the secret 2. no immortal children 3. don't spit into a town's water supply, you nasty people.

Partially answered: less venom injected simply means longer incubation time. This is the case with real life viruses too, and where it entered the body can also impact incubation period.

I think, judging by the fact that this hasn't happened in canon, there are no records of people turning into vampires without being bitten, venom probably doesn't survive very long on its own or when exposed to elements that are not a human.

Carlisle did invent syringes for Breaking Dawn, but we don't know what material those were made of, how long they'd been sitting when Edward used them nor, crucially, if they actually worked. Edward bit Bella everywhere he could manage in addition to using the syringes, it could be the venom in the syringes had already died or lost potency by that time and Bella was turned from the bites alone. Carlisle, who was on a time crunch with limited resources, would not have had an opportunity to test these.

In other words, we know from people only becoming vampires in canon from direct exposure that venom can't survive on its own, and the syringes don't prove that venom could survive under certain conditions because we don't actually know that those syringes were potent.

Fascinating question, anon! Know that there was a lot of virology babble in this post that I had to delete upon remembering I had no idea what I was talking about.

[bambimanifests]

did neville goddard really said that you can have a pet dragon in your bedroom, become a mermaid or vampire, change your race or have angel wings?! i only hear him talking about normal things like "you want a better job? manifest it! you want to be treated better? manifest it! you want to money? manifest it!" but on tumblr they it's changing your race for sexual fetish. HE NEVER SAID THIS

hi anon!

i will say i’m not a huge follower of neville’s, i never really did much research on his teachings, i heard that he manifested an sp aka a woman he fell for and divorcing his wife.

i believe you are referring to rcta, which is just gross imo, people fetishising others race is weird af.

while i will say appearance changes are possible, manifestation is limitless as it’s intertwined with reality shifting (so the whole dragon thing is possible), i do not support rcta and would neville? idk, rcta is a recent trend popular amongst generally younger people, so i don’t think there were people doing that in neville’s time, however appearance change has been and is real. by law anything is possible, so even appearance changes.

i feel like on tumblr people in a way expand the law to apply to more things, but the law doesn’t say necessarily that xyz is impossible etc. it just says that whatever you assume to be true is true, so.

[nalyra-dreaming]

you said to an anon yesterday that lestat would probably feel relieved that louis is with armand as it means that louis will be protected. what did you mean by that?:) how does armand protect him in the books and in the show as well?

i’ve only read iwtv so i only know that much really. i’m sorry if this makes it a silly question, i just don’t absorb books very well or show material as my brain gets muddled. also, this isn’t armand hate, i adore him:)

All good. :)

Armand is a very complicated character, and he often does things that he thinks are right, even though others may see it... differently. :)

Lestat goes to Armand to ask for blood in the book, but also tells him about Louis (and Claudia), in a desperate attempt to save their lives. Because he knows of the old rules, he knows Armand. When Armand falls for Louis there it means that he will not kill Louis. That is an aspect of that in (the) IWTV (book).

Later on there is a phase where Louis lives with Armand in New York, at Trinity Gate. It's after Lestat has let the "ever-multiplying" vampires drive him from NOLA... because he is loathe to kill them. Armand had roused him in his coma once to get rid of the riff raff, but later, after Merrick Lestat does not like going after them anymore:

This is from "Prince Lestat" (which Rolin has already stated to take from):

The mavericks multiplying everywhere were causing trouble for one another, and their gang fights and brawls have made life ugly for the rest of us. And they think nothing of trying to burn with re or decapitate any other blood drinker who gets in their way. It is chaos. But who am I to police these preternatural nincompoops? When have I ever been on the side of law and order? I’m supposed to be the rebellious one, l’enfant terrible. So I let them drive me away out of the cities, and even from New Orleans, I let them drive me away. My beloved Louis de Pointe du Lac left soon after, and from that time on lived in New York with Armand. Armand keeps the island of Manhattan safe for them—Louis, Armand, and two young blood drinkers, Benjamin and Sybelle, and whoever else joins them in their palatial digs on the Upper East Side. No surprises there. Armand has always been skilled at destroying those who offend him. He was after all for hundreds of years the coven master of the old Children of Satan in Paris, and he’d burn to ashes any blood drinker who didn’t obey the vicious old rules of those miserable religious fanatics. He’s autocratic, ruthless. Well, he can have that mission."

Armand protects Louis. Armand keeps New York "safe". I think we are looking at a mix of Merrick and PL era with the show's Dubai penthouse.

Armand protects Louis, even "from himself", too, as was stated rather plainly in season 1. It was also already said by Assad and the others (and I mean it's been clear now through the trailers and teasers) that Armand has at least influenced Louis' memories... probably to keep him from (fatally) painful ones. Armand is a big spell and mind gift user after all :)

I honestly think that all Armand has done/will be shown to have done to/with Louis was to protect him - in the way he saw fit.

That is how Armand, as a centuries old coven master operates - he deals with things as he sees fit.

Loving Louis... means Armand won't kill him. Will protect him, too.

Unfortunately (for Claudia, and others) it is as simple as that. Because Armand could not love her.

I’ve never really been able to get behind the headcanon that turns up in a lot in fic that Mr and Mrs Evans and their home were to baby Snape what Molly and Arthur and the Burrow were to Harry. A respite relative to Tobias and the whip, sure…but Petunia’s instant prejudice didn’t come from nowhere! She’d have been what, 11? Your interpretation that their family dynamics boiled down to the narcissism of small differences makes a lot of puzzle pieces click into place.

thank you very much for the message, anon!

and i completely agree - i've never liked that headcanon either. so much of the course snape's life takes - very much like voldemort's - depends so inherently on being an outsider looking in, on being able to vanish through the cracks left by institutional failings, and on being overlooked by so many people that he becomes dangerously susceptible to those who do notice him. it seems very implausible to me that he could have been radicalised in the way he was if he'd seen the evanses' house as a safe-haven from his abusive home.

what i can imagine, though, is that mr and mrs evans found him sort of exotic and interesting - in line with their canonical excitement when it came to lily's magic - but in a way which still kept him at arm's length.

this is to do with class - obviously. i can't imagine mrs evans would be thrilled about having snape in her nice house looking so dirty and poor - what would the neighbours say!

but it's also to do with race and ethnicity. i think it's worth pointing out that the description of how snape looks - both physically and in terms of how he's dressed and groomed - as a child overlaps so much with offensive stereotypes that might be used within settled communities in britain and ireland to talk about gypsy [a term which is used by these groups themselves within britain and ireland - i am aware that this isn't the case everywhere], roma, and traveller communities.

prejudice against gypsy, roma, and traveller people is collosal - and families like the evanses, who would be particularly invested in the idea of themselves as "law-abiding" and "respectable" would be particularly susceptible to it. snape being excluded from the house - so that the evanses never had to risk the neighbours thinking they'd let one of them in [whether snape actually has gypsy, roma, or traveller heritage or not - the perception is what the evanses are bothered about] - seems very plausible to me.

and the combined bigotries of classism and racism we can assume would impact how the evanses saw snape, also weave really interestingly into superstitions about magic.

there's so much folklore in britain and [especially] ireland about not letting fae folk into your house [similar to folklore elsewhere in europe about not inviting vampires in] - and i love the idea of this combining with the evanses' more everyday prejudices into an unwillingness to let snape across the threshold, and for him to spend the six or so years he seems to be friends with lily skulking at the bottom of the front garden.

ready to be corrupted when lord voldemort asks him inside.
