"I really see vampires as transcending gender. If you make them absolutely straight or absolutely gay, you limit the material. They can be either one. They have a polymorphous sexuality. They see everything as beautiful." - Anne Rice

(Color study)
He is like ''You hurt my master'' Albinus if he had managed to escape the vampire assault on the Palazzo.
I don't find many fan arts of Albinus on internet :(

Hot take I guess but the fandom was way too hard on this book (and still is tbh) and for what? Because it isn’t interested in fan service? If anything Anne’s writing was at its best when she ignored what fans wanted, and I think it’s time for a reevaluation of my boy Vittorio the Vampire.
I just think this was such a promising start to New Tales (more than Pandora, even) and I sort of hate all of you for boycotting it or telling new readers to skip it. (as far as i’m concerned TVA, Merrick, B&G, BF and BC are all unofficially New Tales anyway.. TVL-MtD are the only proper vampire chronicles, everything else falls into different categories, but I digress).
With regard to Vittorio, however, we were given a true blue Ricean vampire hunter novel (the only one mind you) with an actual, functioning plot and some of the best action she’s written since TVL… and you all shunned it. And I get it, we don’t read these books for conventional, commercial plot contrivances, but for the florid language and richly crafted characters; but this is the rare Anne Rice novel that’s just.. fun for the sake of fun?
And no, I’m not blind to its problems. It absolutely needed another draft or two (as do a lot of the later VC entires) and no, Vittorio is not her strongest protagonist by leagues. But what we got was still filled to the brim with good ideas?
The Court of the Ruby Grail cult, especially, is one my favorite of Anne’s inventions. Like their dynamic with the local human villages feeding them their castoffs was legitimately disturbing and IMO better executed than most of the times she retreaded the Children of Darkness post-TVL.
And while Vittorio the character might be kind of boring, Florian and Ursula carry this novel and deserved to enter the larger narrative tapestry on their strengths alone but “waaah Lestat and co. aren’t here” so “it’s bad” or whatever.. I really can’t stand some of y’all.
Anyway, this is long enough and I really didn’t set out to write an essay in defense of what is ultimately a mid-tier entry into this series. But. I still feel that much in the way that MtD and Blackwood Farm have been recently reassessed as good novels that happen to be bad VC entires I think it’s time for some of you to similarly reevaluate Vittorio the Vampire, because this is a good vampire novel, it just isn’t a good vampire chronicle (well I think it is and yet and yet and yet). But it’s still part of the series and it does fit into the larger picture despite what some will have you believe.
If this is your first time, I personally like to read VTV between Body Thief and Memnoch. I think it is better thematically situated there than between TVA and Merrick as initially published. The archangels that enter later in the story build nicely upon David’s vision of God and Satan in TTOTBT and make for a strong intermission full of angels and demons that assist in setting up the Dantean finale of MtD. (I have more suggested reading orders btw, some other time perhaps).
I dunno.. if you like this book please let me know lol like I could use the solidarity because I feel like I’m the only one (I have it ranked #6 out of 15). But yeah, I think Vittorio is probably the most underrated and most unfairly slandered entry in Anne’s entire catalogue if I’m being completely honest.

4. Is there a popular pairing you don't necessarily dislike but aren't too invested in?
10. What's your favourite piece of fanart for Louis?
4. Is there a popular pairing you don't necessarily dislike but aren't too invested in?
Idk. I think maybe Marius/Pandora. Don't get me wrong, I do love them and their dynamic. It is interesting to me, but I don't find myself getting overly invested in it at the same time.
10. What's your favourite piece of fanart for Louis?
All of them Umm, I have a few but I'll try to narrow it down a bit because I honestly can't choose just one 😂
This one is one of my all time favourites! ~ @sheepskeleton-art Sheep never disappoints.
This one with his lil sqishmallow 🥹 ~ @nasnyys
He looks particularly soggy in this I think ~ @muirin007
He's had a good meal 🥺 ~ @nasnyys (again lol)
Ace Louis ~ @loelett
And last but certainly not least
This is my all time favourite!! ~ garama If I'm ever asked (like now lmao) what my favourite fanart of Louis is, it's this one. He's all comfy in his sweater 🥺😭
#thank you for the ask!#it took me a while to find all those fanarts lmao#i couldn't pick just one#louis de pointe du lac#marius de romanus#pandora#vampire chronicles#tvc#ask and you will be answered

Y'all I always feel like I hallucinated the part in Armands backstory in tvl where he starts screaming crying and begging to not be sold when he first met Marius bcus no one ever talks about it !!😭😭and its not mentioned at all in either retellings of marius's acquiring of armand (in tva or b&g). I always consider the TVL version of Armands backstory the most "accurate" bcus it's coming straight from Armands brain and isn't being crafted intentionally like in tva and blood and gold (by bias parties who have reason to glamorize their meeting more then it was in reality). Like TVL Armand backstory is as raw as it gets. Pretty interesting I love the muddied waters that come from tvc's way of first person narrating it's so unique
