Bright young reporter with a point of view

[facsinatingboy]

Hiii!!

I am Daniel Malloy, a bright young reporter with a point of view :3

I am part of a system, this is my alter blog. This is a sideblog, but I would rather people not know what system I am a part of unless I specifically told you.

Anti trump, anti noncon harm, pro consensual contact, anti ai, pro choice, leftist not liberal

I am transowned, transgroomed, transharmed, transabused, transage 21, etc

I am a chronoadult (18) and my other cisids are none of your business!

Please treat me as source, source mates/doubles are encouraged to interact!

I am dating an armand fictive, but other beings can interact romantically/sexually.

I am a map, zoo, aam, necro, and into a lot of different kinks that will affect what I post.

Although I’m not sure if this is what you’d want to hear or if it matters, I don’t see you as unworthy of anything. Perhaps you could be occasionally misguided or mistaken, but no one is unworthy of anything. If this doesn’t help feel free to ignore it, but as someone who doesn’t really know you I see you as worthy of many things, especially love and care, and if I knew you more I’m sure I’d still feel the same way

-🧩

Dearest puzzle anon,

This almost made me cry.

I am very self critical, especially with the pedestal I put armand on.

I can see the nuance and complexity in others, enough to write posts and have discussions, but when I comes to myself all I can see is the bad.

I really do appreciate your reassurance. I am sure you are a wonderful being, even though I only know you through these asks.

Thank you.

Yours,

Daniel Malloy

Ps: this is all /gen

Do you still like Louis and Lestat

This is a very, very complicated question for me. Sorry for my delay in response, this bright young reporter with a point of view has had a very busy day

Louis hurt Armand, very much. I love armand more than anything, anyone. Louis is a product of his environment, but he hurts everyone around him, even those he loves (so do I, to be fair) he never stood up for himself or for Claudia. He let himself and her be hurt by Lestat over and over and chose him every time. He knew something was wrong about the play and Armand's involvement and didn't dig any deeper. He is a spineless man, truly. Yet I understand him, and why he is the way he is.

Lestat is a product of his environment too, we all are. Yet he hurts and lies and manipulates everyone around him. (Yes I know armand does this too) He is abusive to his loved ones, and abandons them because of Gabriella's treatment of him.

I understand Lestat and Louis, but I do not like them. Both of them have hurt the love of my life.

I can be friends with fictives/kins/irls of them, but only if they can reflect enough to see they are not always in the right, if they can see the harm they have caused, and the nuances of their stories.

Yours,

Daniel Malloy

I think how I personally, as an alter, view myself, can be summed up in one quote from iwtv.

And as much as my blog is themed around being a bright young reporter with a point of view, it's not that line.

Unworthy in San Francisco, unworthy in Dubai, unworthy now. Disregard.

That's really how I feel about myself most of the time.

Unworthy as a reporter

Unworthy as a victim

Unworthy as a boyfriend

Unworthy as a husband

Unworthy as a father

Unworthy as a fledgling

Unworthy.

Someine who I had a crush on literally five years ago and last I knew had a girlfriend (we haven't talked in years)

He doesn't want a relationship but I would be so willing to be his friend with benefits

Gods I want him so bad

When I stop being fascinating what happens? When the devil learns everything there is to know about me what then?

Will he drain me and move on, allowing me a graceful death?

Or will he toss me aside like trash, making me live the rest of my mortal life remembering when I was his?

What happens when the devil grows bored of his pet?

I like ur music taste and will absolutely check out the books u recommended! I like more numetal music (my favorite is Korn) and emo music but I also like a bunch of different genres! With books I haven’t read much but I read the book Mysterious Skin a while back and highly recommend it, there are some triggering topics I can tell you about if you plan on reading it but it’s good. I also am reading the fight club book and it’s phenomenal.

-🧩

Korn is pretty good, I've heard some of their songs. I definitely like that genre but it's not my go to.

I've heard about the movie mysterious skin but I didn't know it was a book. Recently I've been reading more splatterpunk, particularly soiled and fluid freaks. I'm about to read playground.

Just watched tvl after dark episode six, here were my favorite parts!

Assad coming out of the coffin table acting like that was a normal thing to do, and saying it was very comfortable in there

Jacob saying he wants to keep playing terrible people because "he gets to be himself" and literally no one believing that's what hes like irl

Delainey being voted most likely to behead two exes at once

Sam saying "fuck my life" and everyone just laughing at him

Honorable mention to jacobs arm just being on sams shoulder the whole time

I honestly love after dark but I do feel they could have picked a better host. The cast really carry the episodes with how charming they are and how much chemistry they have, platonically and romantically.

Sometimes I hate how dependant I am on Armand.

I wait the whole day for him to wake up, and ask him to come over the second he does

He's too tired today so I started sobbing and almost cut, but I'm too lazy to get out of bed and find my razor.

I haven't even eaten yet today because I wanted to wait and see if he wanted to get dinner with me later.

Whenever I'm tired, I have him come over and just chug an energy drink or take a nap. But when he's tired he just doesn't come and see me.

I know I love him more than he loves me, and most of the time I'm fine with it.

Im a human dating someone who is like a god to me, of course I won't mean as much to him as he does to me.

Yours,

Daniel Malloy

Have you read the IWTV books at all? If not what books have you read lately/would you recommend?

-🧩

No, I am waiting at least until tvl is done airing/maybe the whole series depending on how long that takes.

Because of so much of my social media presence is analysis and speculation about tvl/iwtv (or at least amc's version) I'm unsure of whether or not I should read the books and spoil things for myself.

I already know some things that will happen, affecting how I view the show. So many accounts on here have read the books and are talking about the show, will I lose any uniqueness or charm if I read them?

I haven't been reading much lately, but I can tell you some of my all time faves.

1. The night circus. Two children are roped into a magical competition knowing nothing of what it will entail. They grow up knowing only that they will compete in feats of magic until deemed good enough. The arena is a traveling nocturnal circus, and they and other people are the pieces in a game far bigger than they know.

2. The lost girls. A girl turned into a vampire as a high schooler is bound to follow her maker wherever he goes, and her and his other scorning fledglings try to save his newest victim from their shared fate.

3. Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow. I cannot describe this book in any way that will do it justice. You just have to read it.

What are your favorite books? I'll be sure to read them

Yours,

Sillier question but do you write fanfiction or post stories anywhere? I love the way you write and the way you post your theories here, wanted to know if you have any longer content anywhere else

-🧩

So I actually used to be an avid fanfiction writer, but only one fic I wrote ever made it to ao3, and it was tow years ago.

Looking back the writing is horrible and it's far too short. I'll post the link here if you want I guess, but it's entirely mediocre.

Some ideas having been rolling around in my brain, most of them devils minion. I'm in the middle of a Claudia/Lestat/Louis turning scene turned smut, it was a request from someone I know.

I do want to start writing again, I will link my ao3 when I start posting it again.

I'm glad you enjoy how I post my thoughts and ramblings, I'm glad to know it resonates with at least one being.

Do you write anything?

[facsinatingboy]

Good afternoon! Or morning I’m not sure what time it is wherever you are lol

What’s your favorite genre of music? And favorite songs? You don’t have to list many maybe just three but I’d love to know!

-🧩

Good afternoon! Sorry for the delayed response, my sleep schedule is very odd

Our music taste is all over the place, we will listen to anything other than country written by men.

My favorite songs currently are:

1. Good person by Gilanares

2. Southbound by artemas

3. Camisado by panic at the disco

4. Letter to my ex by girli

5. The sex was good by xana

What kind of music do you listen too?

What does aam mean it’s in your intro but I can’t find a definition anywhete

Adult attracted minor, it is a paraphilia. I am chrono18 and trans21 but sometimes I regress to the ages of 5-17.

I also am a child compared to my bf (he's five hundred and seventeen)

I am open to answering any questions about my identities as long as they are respectful like this one is.

I think Armand saw Arun in Claudia.

Claudia is a vampire who was turned around the age Arun became Amadeo, and was taken from the brothel, or "rescued". (She was fourteen, he was fifteen)

And he's had centuries to bury that pain under the title of Maitre, under the name Armand. And then he meets a "fierce vampire trapped in the body of a little girl" which makes her his opposite, but very much like him.

She canonically has the same emotional volitily as the age she was turned, and we see later in season three that Armand still regresses to Arun (one could argue he does in season one when posing as Rashid)

So if he saw Arun in her, it makes sense for who Armand is that he killed her. The persona of the five hundred and seventeen year old vampire armand is very, very different from the fifteen year old sex slave Arun. He hads spend time burying Arun, so of course he wouldn't want the walking, "living" "breathing" reminder (quotes because vamps don't need to breathe and aren't really alive)

Sorry I love psychoanalyzing my boyfriend

How is Lesmand a dark ship? I know they are (and I love them for it), I’m just curious on why you’d classify them as dark

Lesmand: manipulator x manipulated, abuser x abuser (this show loves that dynamic) AND cheater x mistress (and yes I'm calling armand a mistress)

Armand manipulates everyone, and that includes Lestat. He seduced him with the idea of stopping time, and becoming more powerful in general.

They both abuse each other emotionally since neither were in a good headspace to be in a relationship.

And Lestat was dating Nikki for the beginning of their relationship

I would love to talk about how other ships I may have not already mentioned are darkships, feel free to send in requests!

Yours,

Daniel Malloy
