Description

I feel long-winded.
(scrappy Lestat is scrappy... I don't like the way I draw him, yet!)

TRANSLATION:

Me: That's it! Obviously, the vampire is deeply rooted in our culture because it is an ancient scarecrow, a boogyeman. Especially if you notice the subtext...
Lestat: Which subtext?
Me: Come on, is the big bad wolf story, carried to excess! "Be careful, women! Or the seductor will take you and suck your life out of your veins! Even worse, you'll feel pleasure for it, so you WON'T rebel... and he will KILL YOU! So: pleasure is bad, useless females. "
Lestat: Ouch... I can't believe those ideas lasted till today!
Me: Well, if you think about it, now we have the myth of the Beauty and the Beast. The maaaaan who fight his "animal instincts"... but for who? Oh, only for her! His Bella!
Lestat: ...Should I really be commenting this?
Me: No. Still, you are born as a metaphor of "certain" repressed instincts. I am not surprised that, nowadays, the last trend is the Twilight cheap romanticism.
Lestat: ...Sorry?
Me: Just think of that... Think about Bram Stoker. His book is not just a book about old vs new, or superstition vs science. His was a time where speaking about sex was stricly forbidden... And he wrote about a monster who carries out a massacre of virgins by turning them on with some extendable fangs...
Basicly, you are born as porn.

Jack: He has been laughing like this for half an hour, isn't he going to choke himself?!?
Me: He doesn't NEED to breath. Let him be.
