FIC: The Wolf in Ruin (Tanz vs Vampire Chronicles, Von Krolock and Lestat, PG-13)

[bwinter]

Completely not in order of requests due to various muses being on the lam, this one's for ciciaye who wanted Lestat and Von Krolock. Vampire Chronicles versus Tanz der Vampire, or how to give Elton John a heart attack in 725 words

Thankee :)

Whoa.

damn you for making me want to read the vampire chronicles again :P

[bwinter]

Heh, I cursed myself - as soon as I'm finished with The Historian, The Vampire Lestat is waiting for me. Only Anne Rice book I could re-read all over again...

[ciciaye]

Whoa! Good stuff!
Now I want to see 'Tanz...' I wonder if it'll be coming to the UK?

Alas, the English version of Tanz didn't have very good lyrics, and it tanked on Broadway. But who knows - if it's as much a hit in Japan as it was in Germany and Poland, maybe someone will commission a new translation and do it properly this time :)

Definitely not a fan of the vampire chronicles, but oooh. Your words are so evocative and sensual and beautiful. Lovely, lovely stuff :D

[bwinter]

:D

This was lovely. I haven't heard nor seen Tanz der Vampire but from what little I could learn of it in this fic it sounds very interesting.

I especially enjoyed the last part, the final prophecy and Lestat's response:

"It's a fair trade," he whispers.

So very much like him. Wonderful!

Oh, Tanz is beyond lovely. Clicking on my vampires tag will bring up a list of my ravings - it's been my permanent obsession since it opened in October.

Lestat's just the kind to care about the glory, not the fall, isn't he?
