BLOOD REVERIE by Fianchettos
An IWTV fic / “Hotel Reverie” AU
In 1923, The Vampire Lestat takes Hollywood by storm as a monstrous sex symbol for the black-and-white era. When his career ends in a mysterious tragedy, his legend fades, though a few devoted fans still carry the torch.
Decades later, jaded movie star Louis de Pointe du Lac agrees to upload his consciousness to a high tech computer program, in efforts to remake the 1935 swashbuckler classic Blood Reverie. But things get all too real when he meets his villainous “co-star”, an AI copy of the original Lestat de Lioncourt who seems more interested in wooing Louis than fighting him. You cannot script a hurricane.
Rated E. Louis/Lestat (background DM enemy slow burn)
Chapter 14/15 now up.
