Daniel's out of his mind, Armand is crying, I am crying, Daniel's turning is so fucking emotional #MaxReadsTVC
#qotd hours today. A wild book. Baby Jenks is on a ride, has killed someone, and has now met a handsome vampire. So far, so standard for this series. #MaxReadsTVC
It's so wild how the iwtv show changes 90% of everything in the books and yet captures their spirit so perfectly. #MaxReadsTVC
Daniel carrying a vial of Armand's blood is so hot and so romantic I'm dead already and we're only a couple of hours in #qotd #MaxReadsTVC
My man Lestat is watching Death in Venice. Missed this first time round somehow. #MaxReadsTVC
I like how Marius is the only vampire (that we've met) who's not depressed. He's so optimistic and kinda chill and I really like that there's one of them who is like that #MaxReadsTVC
Although tbf Lestat's probably a little old for him, being as he is frozen at 21. Which. Yeah. I have a lot of feelings about Marius and Armand you guys. #MaxReadsTVC
I am DONE wow that was a book and a half and some absolute BATSHIT STUFF but I enjoyed the ride I need to relax my brain now #MaxReadsTVC
"I wish we had had a few more nights together, to consider in quiet what's taken place" yes Marius I'm sure that's the only reason you want a few more nights with the beautiful vampire lad you love so much #MaxReadsTVC
Well, that was actually less traumatic than it could have been. Off to Louisiana we go, leaving Marius to deal with whatever Lestat set loose. #MaxReadsTVC
this is like watching a train wreck oh Lestat my idiot son #MaxReadsTVC
DON'T #MaxReadsTVC
Lestat, whatever it is you want to do, DON'T DO IT #MaxReadsTVC
Right lads where's the book verse TVC fandom at, is it even alive/undead still, asking for a friend #MaxReadsTVC
In a series full of doomed ships, this is one I could actually see lasting? Like, a century down the line or so, when Lestat's got enough life experience. Problematic age gap though, 1800 years is no joke. #MaxReadsTVC
Marius talking to Lestat saying he has to leave even though Marius would love for him to stay is kinda ripping my heart out through my chest like UGH the YEARNING #MaxReadsTVC
Gods I love Marius so much I'm scared something bad's going to happen to him. #MaxReadsTVC
I am nearly done with this absolute doorstopper of a book, which is really three books in one and an absolute TVC lore dump and also horny in unexpected (and some very expected) ways and I'm just very here for all of it. #MaxReadsTVC
Okay but the connection between vampirism and divinity in pre-Christian Europe vs. the view of vampires as servants of Satan in Christianised Rome vs. Louis and Lestat trying to conceptualise their vampiric existence without a religious framework is really interesting. #MaxReadsTVC
Gods this is like a vampire Bible, we're getting everyone's lore. I'm so here for Marius already. #MaxReadsTVC
The ancient vampire gods thing is fucking freaky and delightful. #MaxReadsTVC
The "they turned the beautiful blond and blue eyed boys because they thought we represented the best of our race" is. Well. A thing. #MaxReadsTVC
I love how Lestat takes one look at Marius and feels "an overwhelming attraction" to him, like he has done for every male vampire he's ever met like it's very on brand. When I was 25 I'd fall in love with 5 strangers on the way to the train station so it's also very true to being 21. #MaxReadsTVC
Well that sequence about him taking a mortal lover who accepts him is pretty close to home and I imagine many readers felt similar #MaxReadsTVC
Has someone on tumblr connected the concept of vampires passing unknown among humans to trans people passing, modern fandom can't do anything if it doesn't involve trans in some way #MaxReadsTVC
"Which Leonard Cohen song fits this Lestat mood", he wonders, and the answer of course is all of them all the time #MaxReadsTVC
I do want to say I quite enjoy the commandment about making sure the people you turn are hot, it's such a great one among all the rather more practical vampire commandments. Whoever came up with them had priorities, is all I'm saying. #MaxReadsTVC
And the only reason Marius didn't do it earlier is because there are vampire commandments against it, but the book is super clear they were lovers from the start so I'm just sitting here vibrating out of my skin (sorry for being squicky on main, I just. Bulletproof kink.) #MaxReadsTVC
Seventeen when he was turned... but Marius picked him up at least three years earlier, which was sort of what I'd intuited. Indeed unadaptable unless you want to go to prison. #MaxReadsTVC
How young was Armand when he was turned, canonically? Because I have a feeling you can't adapt him accurately without getting arrested any more than you can Claudia #MaxReadsTVC
