WHAT IF I JUST JUMP RIGHT OFF A BRIDGE HUH
Daniel can feel Armand.
Its been 22 years on earth, 10 years of serious art study, and a 4 year degree. Yet drawing hands is STILL the absolute BANE of my existence.
Don't give up kids! It does NOT get easier! 😁👍
Anyway, QotD Miami-Era Devil's Minion fanart coming soon.
Dan, Daniel, Dan-my-man.
I suppose I owe you my gratitude for coming to my aid with the tooth team. That being said, I’d like to take full artistic liberties with the questions for the documentary. You’ll be fine with it, you’ll like it, I promise.
Remind me next time to come to your aid so I could get a good story! Don't think louis would forgive me if I didn't step in to save the day, and we gotta keep the documentary rolling so you're welcome. Are you healing alright? Need me to be your sexy nurse? You were beat up pretty badly!
Right, the documentary! Please, just no more bullshit. You havent been very helpful these couple of weeks. I mean come on! We both know your tour is a disaster, and your songs suck.(except the butterscotch bitch). I better like it or im telling louis
Lestat turning David Talbot in Tale of The Body Thief: I don't care that you don't want this I'm going to vampirize you in the body of a brown man forever as a metaphor for sexual assault and colonization because I demand a lover/parental figure who won't leave me (ala Magnus, Gabrielle, and Marius)
Armand turning Daniel Molloy in Queen of the Damned: I don't want to do this and I think it will damn us both to hell and I think it means you will come to hate me forever and I will inevitably lose you as my lover just like I lost Lestat and Louis but I will vampirize you because it's what you've asked me for and you're actively dying and I am too cowardly/selfish to let you.
Literally Armand was Akasha's henchman in early drafts QotD and Anne Rice HERSELF got smacked upside the head with Armand saying "actually I'm traumatized not evil and I deserve a redemption arc where I am kind and doting to children and a love story where I become a protector instead of predator and develop my own autonomy and bizarre personality rather than melding to the expectations of others...and btw the reporter from your first book is here has a name and he's my bf." In-universe LESTAT writes QotD and he uses Armand and Daniel's lovestory as a narrative counterargument to refute Akasha's claims that all men are evil, obligate predators incapable of change and unworthy of life.
Rolin is merging David and Daniel into one character. He can change the events and timelines and ages but not the themes or else the message of QotD becomes "only women can save the world because the men really are too fucked up/useless" thus proving Akasha right
TVL writers I'm begging you in our age of bioessentialism and fascism and TERFs do NOT mess this up for us you gotta stick the landing with Armand and Daniel
