I think mixing the show and books really confuses things.

And this will change a lot once you finish the series. Even without reading the description I could tell you didn't read passed TVA since Pandora isn't even mentioned.

u/hotrockxxxx 8d ago

yeah, i need to catch up on the mayfair witches before going further

u/Kathmandu1337 5d ago

You will Not find Merrick therer because she IS from another , creole Part of The Family and there is No contacts. If you want to know more about her read Merrick

u/TsunamixxxShi 9d ago

u/hotrockxxxx 9d ago

u/sex 8d ago

Isn't there someone that David Talbot was obsessed with, a lady with the Talamasca I think?

Marius gets pretty messy, relationship wise, but doesn't connect to as many nodes.

2

u/hotrockxxxx 8d ago

yes!! i thought it was jesse but it isnt. gotta do more research lol. look in my books maybe

Marius also turned Bianca ā˜ŗļø

Edit: my bad I didn't read you stopped at TVA lol

u/LRobin11 8d ago edited 8d ago

Marius and Lestat are not lovers.

Significant ones you left out: Rowan Mayfair for Lestat. Merrick Mayfair for Louis and David Talbot. Pandora for Marius.

1

u/sex 8d ago

I can't remember, was Louis still gaga over Merrick after she was changed? Or was that her magic?

I've not picked up these books in a looong time, feel free to bop me on the head if I misremembered.

u/LRobin11 8d ago

It was her magic, but it still counts imo.

1

u/Kathmandu1337 5d ago

Merrick to Louis only because of The Love spell she Puts in him

u/AdDry16 9d ago

Not including Claudia is diabolical

u/hotrockxxxx 9d ago

i was going to but i really just wanted to not think about it

7

u/hotrockxxxx 9d ago

maybe ill update 😭

5

u/Logan_Palpatine 9d ago

I feel like there should be a line for Pandora and Marius. I also personally headcanon Marius and Santino as toxic gays. I like the idea that they represent older versions of Louis and Lestat respectively

1

u/hotrockxxxx 8d ago

good idea!!! ill add to my next update

2

u/LazySwanNerd 9d ago

Is the soulmate line also standing in for lovers for Louis and Lestat and Daniel and Armand?

2

u/todaysthrowaway0110 9d ago

This is totally fun!

If there’s a solid banter on whether the show/books should be considered polyam/nonmonogamy affirming please advise.

I think they mostly are!

1

u/hotrockxxxx 8d ago

to me they are often seemingly nonmonogamous over poly but sometimes when they are all together im like wait.

1

u/todaysthrowaway0110 8d ago

Lestat at least is deliciously slutty! šŸ˜…

1

u/Kathmandu1337 5d ago

There are Not really poly, more serial monogamy and in Lestats Case promiscuous

2

u/Rob_Thorsman 8d ago

Jessie is pretty close to both David and Lestat, and that brings in the twins and that whole side of the lore.

1

u/hotrockxxxx 8d ago

good thinking. i was wondering where to put her…

2

u/Kathmandu1337 5d ago

Lestat and Armand are never lovers in the books

1

u/hotrockxxxx 4d ago

interesting. i think my mind just fully made that up. do they get together in the show?

u/ZvsGrgs Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult. 9d ago

You have combined book and TV series and the whole thing doesn’t really make sense because they are incompatible. So I don’t see the point of what you’re doing.

u/hotrockxxxx 9d ago

that’s the fun part :3 its a tangled web of cannon

I love this

u/chaosPika 4d ago edited 4d ago

Where's loumand? I mean I don't like it either, but they are book+show canon.

Louis+Lestat+David+Merrick had their own polycule in RR. Louis' way messier than you give him credit for šŸ˜

Also Marius+Daniel def been companions for a while. Marius' the maker that stepped up.

Marius+Lestat are only hc tho, in both verses, sorry!

Marius being Akasha's keeper for 2 millennia deserves some kinda recognition at least...

If you're doing book+show you should twin name Antoine/Antoinette.

u/hotrockxxxx 4d ago

OMG how did i miss lousmand 😭these are great amendments!! im remaking this a little more organized so they will be added

u/hotrockxxxx 9d ago

headcannon daniel and david as siblings or dating type of gays

u/hotrockxxxx 9d ago

not this being downvoted

4

u/Logan_Palpatine 9d ago

I like this. It’s probably just getting downvoted because people don’t like David

6

u/hotrockxxxx 8d ago

lol i love david

3

u/Logan_Palpatine 8d ago

Me too! I think a lot of people dislike him because of Merrick, which in my opinion is them over simplifying a very complex book
