Hi! I was wondering how you pronounce "Lioncourt" - is the "Lion" supposed to sound like the English or French word?

Personally, I pronounce it the English way, and I don’t think Lestat himself minds how it’s pronounced, so you say it however you prefer!

@takemetocoffin-or-losemeforever did a pronunciation for Louis’ name in French awhile back, and near the end, added “de Lioncourt” bc reasons, (here’s the post), and I trust their education on it, bc they are a language teacher, and French is their native language!

(yup I'm still alive!)

One day I'll do a lil' vid' for Lestat's pronunciation, I'm not giving up yet haha.

I heard that @takemetocoffin-or-losemeforever needed some holiday cheer so here is the ‘murder family’ enjoying a winter night together. Though rare, it does snow in New Orleans, oho! This is outside of the @vcsecretgifts but the spirit is all the same. 

Omg, thank you so much! That's so sweet of you!

Merci mille fois <3

For artists who have problems with perspective (furniture etc.) in indoor scenes like me - there’s an online programm called roomsketcher where you can design a house/roon and snap pictures of it using different perspectives.

It’s got an almost endless range of furniture, doors, windows, stairs etc and is easy to use. In addition to that, you don’t have to install anything and if you create an account (which is free) you can save and return to your houses.

Examples (all done by me):

Here’s an example for how you can use it

Great find, thanks!

OMG HEAVEN!!

Bless you!!!!

“The Temptation of Amadeo” commission for @morganeskylar 💙

I did my best to reconstruct the infamous artwork that Marius paints in TVA, according to the description in the book and additional materials by Anne. The garden with flowers is my addition because it seemed fitting for something done by Marius. ;)
