My favourite quote

[xans]

"Now and then eyes settled on me with some vague air of expectation. My white skin made them pause, but what was that when they let blood out of their veins themselves to keep their delicate pallor? (Let me hold the basin for you and drink it afterwards)"

Who else has a favourite line or quote?

The vampire Armand

[xans]

I found it fascinating, as Armand shared his story, and then begged to be allowed to join Lestat and Gabrielle on their journey. Lestat doesn't just say no...

"I've been a rebel always," I said. "You've been a slave of everything that ever claimed you."
"I was the leader of my coven!"
"No. You were the slave of Marius and then of the Children of Darkness. You fell under the spell of one and then the other. What you suffer now is the absence of a spell."

And

"We cannot be Marius for you," I said, "or the dark lord, Santino. We are not artists with great vision that will carry you forward. And we are not evil coven masters with the conviction to condemn a legion to perdition. And this domination--this glorious mandate--is what you must have."

Anyway, all this is to say that Armand is the bottomiest bottom to ever bottom (even if he's a power bottom) and basically Lesat hasn't the patience to be his top. (Also, yeah, let's find Marius. I love Marius.)
