"Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult."

Let's put some some goodness on the dash.

How have Anne Rice's books helped you, inspired you, or connected you to others?

Send in your stories, your shout outs, your fic recs and fan art love and everything in between!

The world is already shit. All we have is each other.

“Maxym, Maxym, you make Makers where there are no Makers, and endow them with powers where there is no power, and all to assuage your endless guilt!” He sighed. His voice remained level. “Bravenna has never punished you for your defection,” he said. “I have never punished you for your assault on me. And so you devise a Maker to punish you, some great awesome being beyond Bravenna, to make you miserable. You break my heart.” - Amel to Maxym, Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis

I'm flipping through Realms of Atlantis again for reasons and I just love that Daniel is apparently around Court somewhere but never really mentioned as being in the room, and the one time Lestat refers to him directly, he doesn't even get a name check!

"I smiled. Our coming out into the modern world had begun over forty years ago with a human radio interviewer in a rented room in San Francisco inviting Louis to tell his story to a tape recorder. And now here we were, all of us, storing every word and gesture of this historic meeting on the modern offspring of that old recorder."

I am legitimately losing my mind.

✨ HUMAN RADIO INTERVIEWER ✨

He has a name. Lestat knows his name! Lestat stayed at his house in Florida and spoke to him about his time with Armand, if nothing else. He's Armand's only fledgling, for god's sake. I mean come on!

I hope Daniel gets that put on a t-shirt and gives them out to the Coven as Christmas gifts. Or on a set of throw pillows he leaves on Lestat's throne. Maybe he can comandeer Benji's studio and start his own vampire podcast call "Human Radio Interviewer at Vampire Court."

I'm going to go chew paper.

Hey, I never read Memmoch the Devil so I don't know if AR is backtracking but here's what is said about Memmoch in PLTROA:

So, is AR undoing what she discussed in Memmoch or not? Because I know that book is mostly a theological discussion with Lestat as the narrator, so I'm wondering if she has changed positions based on new-found belief in God?

The Great Amel, ruler of Atalantaya

“In a mighty unexpected flash Derek saw a long table, blood drinkers on either side of it, and a blond-haired figure with an ax in his hand. The Prince! What a comely being, and with such a beguiling smile. Down came the ax and the Prince held up the severed left hand.”

This part in PLROA where Derek pauses in the middle of a horrifying blood-induced flashback to comment on how comely and beguiling Lestat is 😒
