Interview With A Vampire AU Idea
Interview with a Vampire AU Idea
Okay, so I have been watching stuff about the new or semi- new 'Interview with a Vampire' TV show. And it is giving me a what if.
What if Louie was not the one that Lestat turned in the US? What if in the early eighteen hundred he had found a former slave girl who had run away from her master and was using the light skin tone she had due to generations of owners raping their slaves to escape detection from those who would take her back and found her interesting enough to make her the object of his affections. And in typical Lestat fashion made her the one he was obsessed over. But due to her slavery she either thinks this treatment is normal because it is what she had seen growing up and is just happy he is kind to her and even marries her giving everything she never dared to dream of. And being a former slave even if she doesn't like the way she is treated she knows exactly how to behave to make sure he stays kind.
Until Lestat gets tired of the rumors that his beloved is somehow broken due to the fact they have no children and turns a pair of twins to be their forever children. And that gives his beloved the spark to start fighting back fully to protect the kids under her care. They even call her Mama all the time. But the important part is that like in the show Lestat beats the kids mama badly one night. However like in the book, the children are the one to poison him to make sure he doesn't follow when their injured Mama tells them that they are going to leave when she wakes up the beating Lestat gave her. It is a get beat up one day, leave the next type of situation.
Now one of the things that draws Lestat to their Mama is that she is an empath that is always giving to those around her. When he finds her she is going home late from teaching children in a brothel and attending to one that was sick despite not knowing when or if she would eat next. He immediately lends himself to her aid when some others try to waylay the pretty girl saying that she is his business partners niece and they needed to get to her uncle.
Anyway, just a weird little idea that I had. I might write it out some, or I might not. Please let me know any positive opinions.

My parents visited my sister M. Her cat Viniger was not sure about the new people in her apartment.
My older brother used to let me ride on his shoulders, so that's how I respond to this. A beautiful sibling moment.
holds them gently
And then the bros each hug Fox every time they see him. Including after telling their Generals just how hard Fox and the Guard have it.
Rex: That number is your kill count? Fox: Roughly. Cody: I wasn't...expecting that to be honest... Wolffe: He's lying. Look, he wrote a number above it first, then crossed it out. That's the truth. Fox: No, that's the literal kill count. Cody: ... Rex: ... Wolffe: ... Fox: They were alive before we crossed paths. Rex: Oh...Most of our kills are-- Cody: Droids... Wolffe: I don't--How!? Fox: ...Why do you think I have so many awards? Wolffe: You...work hard? Fox: Doing what? Wolffe: Whatever the chancellor tells you to do. Fox: ... Cody: You protect the Senate. Fox: Coruscant. Rex: What? Fox: My duties extend beyond the Senate. I protect Coruscant. Wolffe: Ok, you protect Coruscant. Fox: ...From? Wolffe: Seppies? Fox: That's...part of it. Rex: ... Cody: ... Fox, popping his tongue against the roof of his mouth: Let me lay it out for you three. Fox: While you're out there sniping heads off of comedic relief training dummies, I have to deal with living, breathing, thinking beings. The living and breathing should make them easier to take down, but the thinking makes them unpredictable. I have to account for their individual beliefs, their morals...their sense of honor...all of which throw logic out of the window. It's not easy to land a droid army on Coruscant, so I don't get the pleasure of predictability too often. Rex: ... Fox: Instead, I have to deal with the citizens of this planet, too many of which don't want us here. They shout at us, abuse us, and have even started a market for us. You know...the skin and organ market. Yes and no. Yes, they have actually harvested our skin. No, I don't mean literal skin when I say skin market. Think collars and chains. How many times have you stood between a threat and the people you're duty bound to protect knowing at least one of those people have spat on your men, attacked them, used them like toys, or captured and sold them? My only comfort is knowing I can turn on them the second they're labeled a traitor to the Republic. And I can pick the worst of them off when there are no witnesses. Cody: ...That's-- Fox: On top of that, I have encountered creatures of nightmares because they just dwell in the bowels of this rotting planet or some pieces of garbage brought them here to sell. If you thought I was protected against watching my men get eaten by a wampa, you are sorely mistaken. Although it was the nexu that kept me up at night. For weeks. Who buys those things? Seriously...At least I put some of them down, but who knows how many they sold? Wolffe: ... Fox: The worst creatures are the ones I can't add to my kill count, though. The absolute worst is Chancellor Palpatine. He doesn't know what my job is and assigns me to literally every job in the Coruscant Guard. I have to do it personally. I'm the boss of the people who are supposed to do those jobs. He is the sole reason I will only sleep when I am dead. Fox: The second worst is 99% of the senators. Entitled, egotistical pricks. I would rather be distributed to desperate families looking for organs than catch the eye of any senator. Thire has to remember which ones show a little too much interest in the clones because we are at their mercy. He can't allow a shiny anywhere near them. If a Coruscanti attacks a clone, it's considered damaging government property, making them a criminal. If a senator attacks a clone, it's considered You better do what is best for the Republic and shut your kriffing mouth. Because treating a clone like a complimentary gift isn't betraying the Republic. Risking one of the Republic's delicate alliances is. Cody: Force, Fox... Fox: I deal with all of that while maintaining an impressive record of mission successes. That is why I have so many awards. Wolffe: ...You have awards, but do you want a hug? Fox: Desperately. All day. Every day.
I love this beautiful interaction between the twins.
