Since AO3 is gonna be down for a long ass time apparently, here's some loustat fics in PDF and EPUB form (many are mine, some are not, if you start one of mine and it's clearly not finished I MIGHT be able to get a more updated version so feel free to ask)
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/
430+ props on this thing is crazy even if somebody already admitted to mashing the button 200x lmao

Not in wokes America buddy. We are canceling it and giving the budget to the wig departments in Yellowjackets and interview with the vampire
My Episode 6 analysis of #TheVampireLestat specifically Claudia’s influence on Lestat has been making its emotional rounds
Someone used it as a question to Sam in an interview and I’ve gotten so many emails and DMs from others about how it moved them
I love these vampires and I’m so happy that others love them too

I love how in iwtvtwt Lestat's racism is always intentionally written & should impact the way you engage with his character but all of Armand's & Daniel's racism is bad writing, actually just the writer's racism, isn't intentional, & doesn't reflect on the characters themselves

I first saw this Tiktok and thought „ahah yea what a funny exaggeration but obviously not a real thing that happened“. Then I saw the real clip 😐
Oh my God they're really saying Claudia was given low racial self esteem out of nowhere and complaining about MADELEINE of all things now, for fuck's sake PLEASE stop tuning into interracial with the vampire if Black x White relationships bother you this bad! We get another soon!
As soon as they don't like what's happening onscreen it's "writers are racist" "writing doesn't make sense" never "oh the subtitles continue to be bad" or "oh, on rewatch this was actually exactly the same / heavily telegraphed all along, I just missed it the first time. Oops!"

“movie made me uncomfortable so it’s bad”
“Main character isn’t likable so it’s bad”
“I didn’t understand it so it’s bad”
If you’re one of these, I hate you
As happy as I am that it ranks this high, FROM being directly above it, attack on Titan directly below it, and Hannibal down at number 17 is crazy 😭 I love FROM but it is nottt that good, and both AOT and Hannibal (also TVL) should be higher imo
‘The Vampire Lestat’ ranks in #9 on Rotten Tomatoes’ ‘Best Horror TV Shows of All The Time’ list 💜🎸

doesn’t matter who wrote that play, who directed that play, armand could have been in charge of taking tickets at the door and he still would bear responsibility for claudia’s death because he was COVEN LEADER.
a lot of the points ppl make about the racism in s3 hold no weight when it’s consistent with how characters spoke and acted previously. if anything, it just proves a lot of ppl tuned into tvl without fully understanding iwtv. and now that’s tvl fans’ problem for some reason.
Wait I saw another decapitated Louis tweet and just remembered Louis's comment about slaves' heads on the iron gates in s1, and him joking about doris losing her good leg. Nothing in this show is a throwaway line holy shit

I log onto iwtvltwt and literally every victim on the show is being blamed for not handling their abuse with the gentleness and dignity of literal Jesus Christ himself except for Armand who is allowed to kill people and use them as puppets because he's sad. I log off of iwtvltwt.
The bucket of fried chicken comment out of everything else in the current discourse cycle is killing me bc nobody had anything to say about Daniel explaining racism to two poc, etc. until it was announced Lestat was gonna be the MC, like Lestat had something to do with any of it?
At the rate this discourse is progressing, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the show keeps going the opposite direction people want that they'll work their way back to saying "actually it was racist the whole time" like we can't see their old tweets praising s1 lmao
