And I'd LOVE to see Louis give up on religious suffering. As long as it doesn't result in suicide... *sigh* I think it's the religious suffering that MAKES him suicidal. If he gave up on it, the tension between him and Lestat would evaporate! If Louis gave up on religious suffering, would he basically be a less psychotic Nicki? Nicki didn't have the religious suffering. We don't know how he really felt about killing... but he seemed to be a pretty passionate writer/performer/etc. Didn't seem to have any religious hangups. He was twisted in his own special way, aside from religion.
On the subject that we agree on, which is anti-zoophilia: Yeah, I've actually been TRYING to come up with SOMETHING smutty between our VC and werewolves, and every time, this is the thought process:
- Which VC character would be lusty enough for this? David? Nah. Lestat! Hawt! Awesome. Okay. - Werewolf... um.... they're hairy.... sometimes in dude shape... sometimes in four-legged doggie shape.... - Scene: ummmmm.... Night, somewhere, obviously... indoors? outdoors? Let's think about that later... - Is werewolf in dude shape or doggie shape? Ummmm.... if in dude shape, that's sorta boring, could just be a dude at that point.... or it could be a lady-were-wolf... still boring in lady shape... - Let's try werewolf in doggie shape, let's try that... because it's NOT boring. - Lestat + werewolf in doggie shape... ummmm... (they stand there, sizing eachother up) - Anatomically, how could this work or be hot in any conceivable way? Werewolf scratches itself with a paw. Lestat looks back at fanfic author with pouty face, psychically projecting: What did I do to deserve this punishment?? - This is FAILURE. I give up.
Maybe this would be different if I attempted to read the Wolf Crap, erm, Gift, but I just can't do it. Especially after skimming the recaps here, these are Tori's, right? It seems awful. http://raidingwindmills.dreamwidth.org/tag/recaps
Mechanical difficulties.
