Hiya! Just a fan that thinks too much. 😅🤣

I’m a show-only Interview fan so I’m not familiar with most of the deep lore from the books, that said who was gonna tell me that Dr. Fareed Bhansali’s Vampire Sex Experiments is a canon thing that exists and not something that the good people of ao3 came up with

I hope every single person who puts nice comments in tags under reblogged art knows that you you guys are the backbone of society. Being an artist online sucks these days, but here on tumblr I still get compliments under artworks that I made years ago. I hope you know every WOW and heart emoji and heartfelt compliment and funny comment you left in the tags is part of the reason I kept drawing all these years, in spite of everything that was going on.

I've been screenshotting the nice tags I get for years, and at this point it would be literal thousands of lines if I still had my old files. I love u tumblr users <333333333

I just googled this and… yes, it’s absolutely real.

And there are so many articles and videos and discussions. Like, the scientific community is buzzing about this.

So much research will have to be redone because the data was absolutely compromised, off by orders of magnitude, by using standard lab gloves.

The world is probably not horrifically contaminated by microplastics. Sterile laboratories, however, are contaminated by latex and nitrile gloves.

Thank God someone bothered to check.

The whole not putting Armand in promo material dosen't just make fans dissatisfied it also affects Assad Zaman himself too because by refusing to put him in any promotional material it is denying him the opportunity for net working and exposure, like it's literally his JOB that is being affected by their racist ass behaviour. Imagine being third billing but they refuse to put you on their advertising, promotional material, press releases and trailer, that would be so demotivating tbh.

I want to speak out as a devoted fan who's deeply impressed by Assad Zaman's acting, and as a reader of the entire Vampire Chronicles series by Anne Rice who adores the vampire Armand as a character, about the extremely strange situation surrounding the third season, "The Vampire Lestat."

I see many people trying to justify the erasure of Assad Zaman from the season's promotion by saying "he's not a main character," and I strongly disagree. I understand the series has already gone down the path of "reimagining the books" — they've changed the timeline, appearances, and backstories of the characters — but I will be unbelievably angry if they dare to change the DAMN PLOT OF THE BOOK.

If you read the books, you would never get the impression that the vampire Armand is a secondary character. He never was, not even from the very first book.

The vampire Armand appears in almost every single book, and almost everywhere he is the primary driver of the plot, a central character. The vampire Louis is the one who is absent from many books!

If we talk specifically about book "The Vampire Lestat", there is literally an entire chapter dedicated SOLELY to the vampire Armand. If Armand had never met Lestat, Lestat would never have met Marius, never would have awakened Akasha, and there would have been no apocalypse!

Armand is the engine of the plot. You cannot ignore that. You cannot write him off as a secondary character. In The Vampire Lestat, the secondary character is Louis! He gets literally two lines in that book.

Also, let's not ignore the relationship between Lestat and Armand. It was extremely toxic, but do not forget HOW IMPORTANT Armand was to Lestat — so much so that Akasha did not kill him. She literally told Lestat, "I will not kill only those who are DEAR to you." For that reason, she did not kill Armand, nor Daniel, who was dear to Armand. So does that not prove the colossal importance of this character?

If we follow the subsequent books, Armand literally settles all the vampires in his house, and they constantly hang out there. All gatherings and councils take place there, in ARMAND'S HOUSE. Armand even takes in Antoine (Lestat's vampire fledgling).

So yes, in my opinion — and I stand by it — Armand is one of the main characters of this universe. And what is happening right now with the season three promotion genuinely makes me extremely worried about changes to his storyline. The erasure of Assad Zaman is complete madness and blatant racism.

I've said my piece. You can throw stones at me, but I will only engage in dialogue with those who have read the books.

WTF is this…🤣😆

[prodigal-strawberry]

[entretienavecunvampire]

daniel constantly running away from armand and the luxuries he lavishes on daniel because armand refuses to turn him into a vampire

daniel doing well, travelling in different cities for a few months, but all of a sudden everything breaks down and he realises that he’s not moved for hours or eaten in days

daniel calling out to armand in desperation, and armand sending cars or a private plane to rescue him from wherever he’s ended up

daniel’s never quite sure whether armand is somehow causing the breakdowns, if armand is pulling strings in his brain to destabilise him

armand always denying it, telling daniel he keeps coming back home because he wants to, because there’s nothing else for him except armand

book devils minion is just insane

Don't you wish you were the blender?

[regsaysstuff]

this is vampire daniel and armand for me idk

[bifauxnenarmand]

they always got his crazy ass looking straight at the camera like this

[bloodyspector]

"Such a rare thing to see Armand truly angry. Ah, how Daniel loved this anger! His knees went out from under him"

[anacerebrina]

There are easier ways to unlock Armand’s enraged wet-eyed Victorian pigeon mode than landing in the hospital. Bed. Tears. Efficiency? I fear Rolin is gonna hit us below the belt with them and I’m both excited yet terrified. Poor Satan and his henchman…ooh, do they get their own little orchestral song now?! I imagine the title being something simple, like “Armand, Again…”…sounds like Atomos Vii by A Winged Victory for the Sullen?

So AMC didn't do shit for the 50th Anniversary of Interview with the Vampire.

No trailer, no promos.

This has everything to with the regime in the United States.

Issa Rae spelled it out. DEI is a non starter in Hollywood right now.

They are trying to stay out of the spotlight by downplaying the queerness and diversity of the cast.

They especially don't want anyone to realize there is a Muslim actor in the main cast, so you can keep your "Armand is too spoilery" excuses to yourself.

The regime has no problem threatening anyone - including the Pope. AMC is just a small entertainment company whose majority shareholder we know contributed to The Fascist Pedophile in 2020.

I've written and erased this so many times now, but fuck it.

I really don't think it's just bad marketing. I think it's part of the united states agenda to erase entire communities from existence.
