Wake up, my love! I’ve purchased us two tickets to Thailand! We are going to visit the young Moo Deng! You’re aware how fond I’ve grown of her little dumpling face and well documented lust for blood. I plan to hypnotize the zoo keepers into letting us pet her. Pack your things! Quickly! I’d dread to interfere with her sleep schedule. And if we make good time I’d also very much like to fuck you on the beach where James Bond dueled Scaramanga.
Jacob Anderson gets a lot of very well-deserved praise on his accent work in IWTV, especially in the sense that it goes back and forth— the thick NOLA Creole drawl to the sterile, stripped-clean, carefully blank American that he uses in Dubai, and then back again. If you listen closely, you can hear him very subtly letting that drawl "seep" back in during really intense Dubai scenes. It's absolutely phenomenal.
BUT! I would also like to give Sam some flowers that I don't see mentioned much. Mostly because we only hear it in two scenes, with very few lines: the reunion scene in 2x08, and the S3 Teaser. Sam is doing! Two completely different accents at once! And I KNOW it's intentional bc it's a book thing and our boy has a doctorate in Lestat.
In Louis' account of events, Lestat was fresh off the boat. The French accent is very thick, and he also peppers in a lot of French into his sentences. (Most fic writers tend to lean into this). But by our start date in 2022, Lestat has been living in Louisiana for over a century. In TVL, set in the 80s, Lestat describes LOUIS as the one having an accent.
So what is Sam doing with this?
FOR STARTERS. There are whole stretches of words, entire lines in those scenes even, where Lestat sounds pretty casually American: "shut up" like "shuddup", "and I thought, who better to carry on the great work", "Siri, pause". The French thickens a bit when the emotion intensifies, but even then it's not entirely present like it is in the rest of the show. The nasality and softened "T" of "nineteen sevendy three" "Did you hurt yourself?", the "I can't, Louis." THE WAY HE SAYS LOUIS' NAME SOUNDS DIFFERENT. not lew-EE anymore, but LOO-ee.
The teaser?? Very fun. The entire line "There's a goblet on the table." And "but, then again...it might not." AND!! Of course accents of all kinds tend to soften when singing, but in the song he only sounds French when speaking French.
And these HAVE to be conscious choices, they have to be planned and the ratios played with because neither of these are Sam Reid's speaking voice. He is doing two accents at once and it's so subtle but it's also doing so much to make Real Lestat distinct from Memory Lestat. What a GIFT what a TREASURE what SUBLIME leads we have for this show.
(Assad I see you scheming too, I will gush about you too)
What do you think of the idea of Sanji being transfem?
I love her oughhhhhh my second moon my my my wife…*eye twitches* my beautiful wife ….
the fact that iwtv on amc managed to create an incredible compelling character such as louis out of the husk of a soul that was presented in the books is honestly amazing. tv show louis is my best friend. book louis watches paint dry for fun and i would hit him with a car.

Love language: sharing earrings with your partner
Something I appreciate about Zosan, and about non-canon ships in general, is that it has so much room for interpretation and ALL interpretations are correct. There’s no wrong answer because there’s no CANON answer.
Zoro confesses first? Great! Sanji confesses first? Awesome! One of them has dating experience while the other has none? Cool! Neither of them have dating experience? That’s great too! They’re scared of physical touch? They can’t stay off of each other? Zoro is way too blunt? Zoro doesn’t know how to voice his feelings? Sanji is tired of waiting for Zoro to act? Sanji is plagued by indecision? They try to hide their relationship? They don’t care who sees them? They practically get married at the first date? They’re nervous to even call each other partners?
It’s all perfect, and it’s all Zosan. There’s no right way to ship it. At the end of the day, we’re all just having fun.
Zosan’s “marimo”s and “curly-brow”s turning into soft “mossy”s and “curls”,,,,,,AUGH
Zoro doesn't know the meaning of sharing is caring
I can't believe this world contains such heartless people‼️
With a heavy heart, I ask you to help my family by donating any amount. It will make a difference in protecting them.
Dont skip 🔴
I am Falestine, Jad Al-Haq, I am 36 years old, married, and I have a three-month-old child named Youssef. I gave birth to him during the war during very harsh conditions that no human being can bear. I moved from the hospital immediately after giving birth to the tent in which we were staying after we were displaced to it after the Israeli bulldozers completely bulldozed my house. Kamel has become featureless, and my suffering did not start from here. Rather, it began since the beginning of the war, and I am still suffering. I cannot provide enough milk for my baby or diapers. Even medicines and vitamins are not available.
I ask you for your urgent help in disseminating the link to my family and communicating it to people interested and able to help us. I didn't want to do it, but the tragic situation we are living in is what pushed me to do it. I feel sad and helpless, after we had everything, we are now homeless on the streets, living in a tent next to a dilapidated public toilet and there is sewage, dirt and waste everywhere, we sleep on it! We suffer from terrible heat, insects, scorpions, the danger of death, bombs and missiles, in addition to hunger of course, the danger of pollution and terrible diseases, especially the digestive, respiratory and reproductive systems!
. My father and mother could not bear it any longer. My father had a stroke after losing his home and his place of work, and my mother suffers from chronic diseases and needs treatment.
Do you have the right to imagine that when you spend your life building for yourself and your children to live a decent life, all of this disappears in the blink of an eye, and now when you reach the age where you should rest, you are forced to start again!!? But the most important thing now is to try to survive and protect your children from all the factors of death that surround us! I ask everyone who has humanity or conscience to feel our situation and put themselves in our place. How can someone who has lived with dignity all his life accept this? We are slowly dying every day.
Your donation, no matter how small, can have a big impact. It can provide a meal for my little one, a clean bottle of water, or a moment of safety under these difficult circumstances. Every donation brings with it a ray of hope, alleviating our suffering and giving us the strength to face a new day.
I ask you to donate and support the steadfastness of the Gazan people, and share this campaign with your friends and families. Together, we can make a difference and help my family get through this ordeal.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity and support.
Warm greetings,
Falestine
Don't forget about the Palestinians.
Don't forget about them now.
Don't forget about them tomorrow.
Don't forget about them in a week from now.
Don't forget about them in a month.
Don't forget them next year.
Don't forget them in 5 years.
When the history books start to update, don't let them put lies in there.
When documentaries come out, boycott the ones who call this a victory for Israel.
When books release talking about soldier's personal experiences with Palestine, remember the victims. Remember the truth.
Don't forget about what we've seen.
Don't forget about what we've heard.
Don't let them tell lies about Palestine.
Don't forget about the Palestinians when the world tries to make this go away.
Hello 👋
Please take a moment to read my story.
I am Heba Al-Dahdouh. I currently live in the completely destroyed city of Gaza. Since the war on Gaza began on 7/1/2024, my family—my father Nasif, my mother Asmaa, and my siblings Khaled, Ahmad, Muhammad, and Malak—have been living in constant fear, crying, and suffering due to shrapnel, shells, and bullets.
We have no food, no electricity, no cooking gas, no schools, no homes, no cleaning supplies, and no clothes. Our house was completely destroyed. My school has been bombed, and my brother Khaled's university is now rubble, depriving us all of education. The war has forced us to live in displacement centers, which are just tents unsuitable for living, especially in winter.
Every day we live death, terror, and panic a thousand times because of the ongoing bombardment of my city. The war has killed more than 50 of my relatives and neighbors. At the start of the war, we sought refuge at my aunt's house, but it too became rubble. Imagine: we have survived imminent death more than 20 times and have been displaced among shelters more than 13 times. My siblings and I have suffered from many illnesses due to malnutrition, and we need medication continuously.
If we stay in Gaza, we might lose our lives. Recently, we have been seriously considering leaving Gaza for a safe place. However, travel costs are extremely high. We need over $50,000 to leave Gaza. Due to exorbitant prices, rampant unemployment, lack of security, the ongoing siege, and relentless bombardment, we have lost all our money. How can we live in such insecurity, with constant shelling and shrapnel flying above us? Dear compassionate friends around the world,
With your generous donations, even if small, you can save 7 people from imminent death, allowing us to start a life outside Gaza filled with love, peace, and hope.
With my warmest regards from the city of Gaza,
Heba Al-Dahdouh.
Sanji being more protective of Zoro post thriller bark is my Roman Empire.
whumptober day 4 hallucination
it's always "i love you," and never "eating meals we made out of habits, watching the sunlit laundry, walking side by side with a person like you, and seeing off tsumiki...i wanted to think, ah, i'm so happy."
Can't believe I never got around to posting this and a few other bits, got some catching up to do!
Instead of inktober I'm doing crossover shiptober
Because crossover ships are so funny to me you can't stop me.

I like that despite being a child abuser, child exploiter, and an emotionally absent father, Reginald draws the line at transphobia.
tbh the loustat situationship era only works as long as they're not in the same room. the moment they're face to face all bets are off. louis is extremely aware of this and that's why he never goes to his concerts. lestat knows this too but doesn't care and keeps writing songs with innuendos and references to their past to rile him up. daniel is taking turns babysitting both of them and he's tired
Claudia is so relatable, she was failed by both of her parents, both of them doomed her the moment they turned her, both of them equally responsible for it. Her diaries being read, the violation, the humiliation, her standing up on her feet in rebellion, looking the fuckass audience right in the eye despite being injured. Her rage, her bravery and her attempt to hold her lover as she herself turns to dust, no cries or screams, her looking her father right in his eyes as she seeks comfort and at the same time forces him to face his failure. Went out like a bright light, our spark in the dark....
Claudia you'll always be loved and admired by all the first born daughters and women ❤
lmaoo am i allowed to say this was hot?
