The fact that picture 1, 5, and 8 are him making the same face on three different occasions is adorable to me for some reason.
A Boy and his Boss
I made this cute little graphic and laughed at it for like 20 minutes. I don’t know. The similar goofy smiles are endearing to me. This looks like some shit they’d have on their shared mantle in Season 8.
From the director of “Murders at Midnight” comes the fate-sealing event of the summer...
A favorite photograph of Armand’s. While it isn’t exactly being proudly displayed in the Dubai bedroom for obvious reasons, Armand was sufficiently pleased with it to give it a little hand-coloring back in the day.
The poster here comes from the best photo of it (at this point) with the perspective corrected, a great deal of tidy-up painting done, and the font re-typed using a very similar font to the original that I happened to already have. [also, our top “photo” is a manipulation using a picture of Assad and an old 1930s election day photo, if you couldn’t guess.]
Set preparations are in full swing

SCREAMING CRYING FIRING GUNS LIKE YOSEMITE SAM
ALSO LOOK! It looks like it says "BY [name that ends with a d] MARIUS. Is that "Armand Marius?" Does he use Marius' name as a last name?
*SHRIEKS IN THE DARKNESS*
Guys look!! The theatre Des Vampires exterior is being built right now!
Love this old man. Can't wait for all his holes to be stuffed with vampire
Head canon: When Armand drinks from Daniel while also "stuffing" him in the butt, he calls this combination the "stuffed crust pizza." 👴🏻🍕
"the TVC vampires can forgive anything" yeah that's clear from the fact they don't kill one another for publishing these books
I mean, I guess when you know that other person is going to be around forever, your only two choices are to kill them or to find a way to coexist. (Or seal them up in some kind of oubliette, which is just putting off the inevitable.) And when there are so relatively few beings on Earth who can truly understand what it's like to be you, I can't imagine it would be an easy thing to cut even one of them completely out of your life with no hope of reconciliation.

"Bonjour, Lestat here! I've recovered from my last round of beatings and learned nothing, so here's the nonsense we've been up to since the last book"
👴🏻Uh oh, I’m in for a pounding!

Now reading “The Vampire Armand,” Daniel longs for the good old days of Claudia’s diaries.
fetishizing normalizing romanticizing sexualizing carmelizing that old man in my mind this morning
SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP ASSAD HAS REPOSTED IT TO HIS INSTA STORY
Illustration from “The Vampire Armand.”
With no one left to hug and wallowing in the ashes of his brothers, Armand hugs the bars of his cell. In an act of particular cruelty, his captors starved him for 6 days before throwing him his best friend Riccardo as a meal...and he didn’t realize it until he had already killed him.
[Many centuries later, Riccardo would have an emotional reunion with Armand as a ghost at his home in New York.]
-illustration from “The Vampire Armand.”
Armand washes in the ocean after becoming a vampire, and Marius runs to meet him with a fur robe. The full quote:
"Oh, yes," he said. He hugged me roughly and kissed my throat all over, and my shoulders, and began to kiss my chest. "I can't hurt you now, I can't snuff out your life with an accidental embrace. You're mine, of my flesh and of my blood."
He stopped. He was crying. He didn't want me to see. He turned away when I tried to catch his face with my impertinent hands.
"Master, I love you," I said.
Not me only now realizing Louis was out there telling Daniel that Armand stuffs himself with "honey and pineapple" for days before he drinks from him, thus sharing with him a common remedy for sore throat. And we all know what irritates the throat reaaaally quickly.
Louis was really out there telling Daniel to get ready to stuff himself with every remedy for a sore throat, for his own good and for everyone else's. While also confessing he and Armand have a sore throat after all the talking and the... unwinding after the interview.
