Insatiable (Armand x Fem Vamp!Reader)

Summary: Escape. That's what he craved. Somewhere away from everything. Instinct had brought him to the club, not his usual scene. But it was you that kept him there. You were the escape he needed. Feeding desires he didn't know he had. And satisfying cravings he didn't know needed satiating.

This was originally meant to come under @lady-phasma's Fangtober Celebration but I got a little sidetracked (using the prompts exhibitionism, overstimulation (sort of) and blood).

CW: MINORS DNI, she/her pronouns, afab reader, mentions of vampiric feeding, mentions of blood, mutual feeding, mentions of clubbing, (slight) mentions of sex work, exhibitionism, little bit of overstimulation, oral (fem receiving), dry humping, blood play, p in v sex, (slight) rough sex, public sex.

Words: 4260

Please enjoy my dive into a new fandom!

So hot!! I'm so happy you shared this with us! Thank you!

The way I would let this man dissect me, examine my insides, and pin me up like a fucking butterfly

@zaldritzosrose I told you we aren't alone 🤭

ASSAD ZAMAN as Armand

i received word today is armand's made up birthday

Captivated

The Vampire Armand x gn!reader

Warnings: 18+ MDNI, some biting, mention of blood, smut, spit as lube, penetration but no gender mentioned.

Summary: You decide to go home with Armand, PWP, 3.1k words

a/n: human reader (not a vampire) but not described (inclusive!reader), no specified location, probably not Dubai, modern but no time stated however I decided vampires have announced themselves (like late TVC book canon), I headcanon Armand as a sub but to make this an inclusive gn reader he’s a bit of a switch.

Special thanks to the amazing @aemondsbabe for all the help listening to ideas and letting me fangirl!

You followed him down the hallway. The apartment building was modern and austere. Your footsteps echoed off the bare walls. The liminal quality of the empty space at this early-late hour was unnerving and exhilarating. Everyone in the building asleep except the two of you. Armand walked slowly, but still a few steps ahead of you. He could feel your anxiety, but he could also feel your curiosity. It intrigued him.

No one: Tumblr gif makers: *downloads a 70GB video file just to make one gifset of some blorbo that’ll only get 120 notes*

Martyrdom

The Vampire Armand x gn!reader

Warnings: not that many really, tragically over-dramatic comfort, implied canon trauma if you know a little about Armand’s history (book or series)

Summary: 1k words of 🥺 and comforting our beautiful monster.

a/n: so yeah, I had to work out some stuff between 2.07 and 2.08 because Armand needs some comfort. This is the most melodramatic thing I have ever written. This was going to be fem!reader but then it really wasn’t important to the comfort so it became gn!reader.

Armand didn’t stir as you walked in. His head was bowed, iPad balanced in one hand, tapping at the screen with the other. His dark curls framed his face. You knew he heard you, of course he did, but whatever was happening on his tablet was engrossing. You walked behind the sofa and rested your head on his shoulder. A glance at the screen showed you an online art auction. You smiled as you leaned down to kiss his neck, ear, and cheek. His singular focus wasn’t unusual but when you looked back at his iPad you saw the thumbnail and item description.

Assad Zaman as Armand INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE 2.04: I WANT YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD.

Paring: Armand x reader Synopsis: you're sitting in a pub, you start drawing the mysterious stranger sitting not far away from you. When he discovers you, you don’t realize you’ve picked the attention of a dangerous creature. Warnings: reference to past injury, self doubt, allusion to past trauma. A/N: reader is AFAB. They/them pronouns used.

The wind is howling outside the thick windows of the pub, dark clouds promising heavy rain and violent waves against the jagged coast not too far from the narrow road where the pub is built. The fire is roaring in the huge hearth, shadowed by too many people huddling there to nurse their drinks; the lights are dim against the old wooden panels, giving the overcrowded room a homely air.

This is so beautiful!!!! OMG! I love Armand fluff more than any fluff and you killed it! Absolutely gorgeous and full of emotion! Thank you so much for sharing this with us, for letting us draw him! 😭🥹🥹

WIP Whenever since I never manage to do them on Wednesdays

This is historical. For the first time in over two years, I am writing for another fandom than House of the Dragon. Last Sunday I started watching Interview with the Vampire, and it took me less than six days to I finish the two seasons. I am hooked.

I'm both proud and nervous to share a snippet of my very first IWTV fanfic, which is quite a self-indulgent Lestat x female reader oneshot. I'm confident I'll have it finished within a couple of days.

A very special thank you to @lady-phasma for introducing me to this show, and to this fandom ♡

Don't hesitate to ask if you'd like to be tagged when I post it ♡

Y'all another moot of mine is writing for Lestat!! 😍 I'm so excited!

I am so glad you have fallen in love with these characters! 💕

Sometimes having a couple Art History degrees is useful when watching a series or, at least, makes things more interesting. I've been thinking about potential series canon for future seasons and how perfectly Assad's casting and Armand's updated/modified history can still fit with Andrei in the books.

The name Arun that they chose for him is actually a Hindu name, but his timeline aligns with the beginnings of the Mughal Empire in 17th century India. So let's assume they keep the artist theme for Arun (pre-Amadeo) like it was in the books, how perfect would it be that he converted from Hinduism to Islam before he left India? I envision illuminated manuscripts of the Qur'an that he painted and tracked down over five centuries later. Like these pictured below from past Sotheby's auctions, they exemplify Anne's descriptions of the religious ikons "not painted by human hands" even if Islam is iconoclastic.

Reblogging to add for the history nerds:

Yes, I know about the Islamic colonization of the Indian subcontinent during the 1500s and chose not to make this a history thesis. LoL

After discussing it with a moot, I decided to add this just to clarify that I left out that part from the original post on purpose. It is a partly-unpleasant portion of history full of nuance, sanctioned discrimination, and violence. I have a Master's degree in Buddhist Art History so I had to learn about all attempts to destroy that religion. I decided to leave out the specifics of the Mughal Empire to focus on our blorbo and not lecture into the void. 💕

Another update I want to add from the comments because it was a great point made by @knownoshamc:

My answer copy/pasted from the comments:

I truly love being corrected or having people give feedback on my posts! Thank you for this.

All Armand fans know this original post could easily be a 10 page paper on his life, but I was trying not to do that. Maybe next time I should just go for it. 😂

It’s over for me.
