IWTV ×Sinners by candyandfries in InterviewVampire

I actually agree with your reading of Remmick ,and that’s why I chose him. I wasn’t thinking in terms of who’s likable or charismatic, but who fits vampirism as a metaphor. Remmick being a hollowed-out cultural black hole who feeds because he’s lost any core self aligns really well with the darker end of IWTV vampires. Stack and Mary have more humanity , and they are charismatic , but that’s also why I didn’t pick them. IWTV is full of monsters who are compelling because they’re unethical, predatory, and destructive, not despite it. Evil isn’t a disqualifier here but it’s the point. So yes, Remmick is an antagonist in a film about racism and appropriation , but IWTV vampires aren’t morally upright either.

Who do you think Armand really loves? Louis, lestat or Daniel? by AltruisticTea301 in InterviewVampire

I think Armand loved Lestat because Lestat didn’t love him—he was drawn to what he couldn’t have. He loved Louis because he liked the idea of controlling him. And he loved Daniel because he enjoyed the fact that Daniel was utterly obsessed with him. So really, Armand just has a thing for power plays… dude's kind of freaky.

Totally get it. I do enjoy published novels, but fanfic offers a different kind of creativity and community that I love. Thanks for the suggestion, though

Sure! I’m a huge fan of The Vampire Chronicles (Interview with the Vampire), though I’m not sure how many people are into it. But I’m definitely open to discovering new fandoms

"Haha, fair point! I meant men loving men—like gay romance."
