Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 27/09/2026“Thank you Ciro. I needed an evening like this. No worries over what tomorrow holds and for a time, the stress just melted away. I am in your debt.” He meant every word. Not only had he enjoyed himself, his mind was full of new melodies and lyrics he would transcribe into song when he was rested. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 27/09/2026“Alas my friend. I begin to feel the pull for sleep. As the humans say, it is time to go before we turn into pumpkins. Or some ridiculous nonsense like that.” Was he slightly tipsy? Yes but he felt wonderful. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 27/09/2026They needed to rest. With an internal sigh, he makes his way back to Ciro to signal that it was time for them to go. Finding him was not difficult. Reaching him, Lestat jerks his head towards the doors. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Dancing. Drinking. Twirling. Laughing. The evening progressed until dawn began to creep closer. He began to feel the pull for sleep as morning crept closer. Some supernatural creatures and beings could go without sleep but not his kind. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026They’d been unapologetically flamboyant, loud and so talented. “I admired your refusal to limit your vision. That’s intriguing. As is this visit. To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?” 000
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026“I saw you play a while back at The Roxy in Coventry Garden with Brian Slade. You were incredible together. The show, your performance and the theatrics were incredible.” Though he’d never admit it, some of Lestat’s “vampire” schtick was inspired by Brian and Curt. - 100
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Lestat gave a lazy grin and stared at the man before him. Moving gracefully, he stands and widens his smile allowing his fangs to peek through. Though he knew his fans believed them to be a prop, it added to the illusion of his persona. - 100
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Tomorrow would bring reality, hard work and probably a temper tantrum but that was a problem for later. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026With those words, Lestat lets himself get carried away in his clumsy attempts to imitate a dance he had no experience with but it was fun. He was enjoying himself. Thoughts of Louis and Armand and everyone else were a distant memory best left buried for now. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026“The subject of family is forbidden tonight Ciro. Some memories are best left behind on an evening such as this. Keep dancing friend. I suspect we both need an evening such as this. An evening without the noose of responsibility. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026His slightly inebriated mind allowed him to believe he could accurately follow and imitate Ciro’s movements. Perhaps it was best that he didn’t notice the stifled laughs of other patrons as they watched his poor attempts of dancing. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/08/2026They danced and drank and celebrated. As Ciro extends the scarf, Lestat lets himself be open to his own curiosity. This was something new. Something freeing. “A familial dance oui? I am intrigued. Show me. Perhaps I can follow along.”- 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 01/08/2026//All replies coming this weekend. Healing quite nicely after surgery, physical therapy has gone well & I’m finally feeling more like myself. 230
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/07/2026//Yikes! It’s one thing with a character like mine bc I don’t own the character of Lestat but yours is an OC. A character you developed & chose the fc for years ago bc I’ve been around long enough to remember you using this exact fc on X years ago. That’s straight up copying. I’m so sorry. 120
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 13/06/2026//I hope to get to replies soon. I had surgery today with an expected recovery of about 3 weeks. I will be more active once I’m not as loopy and in pain as today. 340
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 08/06/2026//I have an Ilya and a Scott Hunter if you’re interested in writing. 100
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 06/06/2026//That just made me choke on my morning coffee. I can’t stop laughing. Well played. 220
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/06/2026//Ooh… The plot thickens. Lestat is intrigued. “Victor. What secrets have you been hiding? How intriguing! And here I thought you merely a collector of relics.” 142
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/06/2026//YES! Just got my coffee too. I’m ready. Brb. 120
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/06/2026//A wonderful read! Intriguing and I find myself eagerly anticipating the next installment of this story. 111
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 02/06/2026He truly had lost all track of time and for one evening, Lestat chose to be carefree instead of haunted by the ghosts of his past. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 02/06/2026Every word I write and sing is a memory. A hope. A dream. A desire. And tonight? All this? It will be a song one day. For what is music but shared experiences? Come! Dance with us while the night is still young. Or perhaps it’s closer to dawn?” - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 02/06/2026The music continues to play as bodies writhe around them in a glorious swirl of color and light and the scent of desire. “My music is mine Ciro. I choose to share certain parts of me with the world. I do not care if human ears fawn over it or if immortal ears mock it. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 02/06/2026Lestat shakes his head. His mind is too intoxicated to make sense of philosophical thoughts. But still, Ciro’s words haunt him as he continues to dance and drink. His words are his own. Every time, every lyric and every melody belongs to him. He stops dancing and stares directly at Ciro.- 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 12/05/2026//My apologies for stepping away. Had a recent death in the family. It was a long and stressful time of watching someone go painfully and slowly. I’ll return as soon as I can. 240
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 06/03/2026//Absolutely never any rush. Take your time. 010
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 05/03/2026“These drinks! What are they? Are they bewitched or enchanted? They make me feel fabulous!” He truly did not know what he was drinking or who he was dancing with nor did he care. As he dances he begins to randomly on hum as melodies drift through his mind. Perhaps a new song would come soon. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 05/03/2026Ciro proved to be as adept at entertaining as he was at managing a rather frantic and energetic musician like himself. He wasn’t drunk. He absolutely was not drunk. Vampires could not get drunk right? He was just…excited. He was having a terrific time.- 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 05/03/2026The drinks flowed as he laughed and danced and was entertained by the large gathering of others from different worlds. All so different yet all had a common purpose that evening. To drink and perhaps ease the sting of loneliness that often permeated the auras of immortals. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 05/03/2026One drink became two. Two became three. Lestat lost count and frankly he did not care. Finally he was allowing himself to just be. No pressure from club owners, from the fans he’d accumulated, from members of his band. Here, in this space and with Ciro he could mostly let his guard down.- 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 06/02/2026//Replies this weekend. Work, personal issues and my own health have kept me away. 010
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 01/01/2026A toss of his hair and a smug grin light up his face. “But of course I adore the adulation. Who wouldn’t love to be loved as I am?” But it’s the reminder of Louis that has his back stiffening. “Do not speak his name. Ever.” Just hearing that name both saddens and angers him. 100
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 01/01/2026The lights, the crowds, his name being chanted by legions of adoring fans. Then he had an abrupt thought. A very serious one. “You don’t want me to change my style and look do you? I can’t fathom making changes to all this perfection.” Yes he was deadly serious about this. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 01/01/2026My music can tell my story.” Ideas of new music begin to fill his mind. Haunting melodies and sexy lyrics. “I am ready to begin. There is no need for us to waste time. I can’t achieve a legendary god state if I’m not working for it.” Excitement coursed through him. He could picture it already. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 01/01/2026Not at the moment. That book angered so many but I admit to sometimes reading certain passages when I’m in the mood for a laugh. Such drivel and nonsense. It’s all one sided anyway. Perhaps one day I’ll tell my story. Now that would be filled with drama and love and anger.- 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 01/01/2026A slight nod as Lestat listens to Ciro’s words. “Yes, he lives. He still walks amongst us.” Anguish flickers across his face as he remembers. “He has found…a lover of his own. An acquaintance actually. We do not speak nor do we acknowledge each other. - 120
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 27/12/2025//Replies incoming. The holidays kept me away & then this app logged me out of all my accounts again. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 05/12/2025//Replies this weekend. It’s been busy!media.tenor.coma close up of a man 's face with blue eyes and blonde hairALT: a close up of a man 's face with blue eyes and blonde hair 010
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 27/11/2025//That mentality is why I left and don’t look back. That place was just too toxic. I’d hate to see that nonsense here. I get people will always inevitably engage in some sort of drama but I hope they keep it private, in DM’s or just away from here. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/11/2025“Pure fictional trash that clearly painted me in a rather negative light. Louis de Pointe du Lac. Such a sad tragic figure. In his own mind anyway. Always did have a penchant for the sad and dramatic. Perhaps that’s why my music is all inspired by him.” 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/11/2025“Perhaps you know my lover. He once wrote a book of pure indulgence and such melancholy heartbreak. It was billed as vampire fiction.“ He snorts out a rather inelegant laugh. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/11/2025It was a gift though when he was a boy he often felt it a curse. “My lover, my heart. He has been my muse but also my source of my greatest frustrations. He…” Huh. Lestat sat back, a new thought forming in his mind. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/11/2025In an abrupt shift of mood, Lestat went from charming & excited to serious & all business. “How do we begin? What do I need to do to begin? What do you need from me?” He tossed back his drink as if it were mere water, his mind already swirling with ideas for songs, lyrics and melodies. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/11/2025Our time among mortals is limited before they start to question our eternal youth. I want to have them worship at my feet in the time I have among them.” Being who he was, Lestat had no shame about admitting his desires. His ego and pride demanded greatness of him. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 04/11/2025Oh he could imagine it alright. The lights, the screams of adulation, the worship of legions of fans screaming his name. “I don’t just want to be a legend. I want to be a god. Yes we are eternal but even we have to eventually hide our true natures. - 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 11/10/2025“As much as I’m sure many would be thrilled to see me perform, I have my sights set on something different. Something bigger than the theater. As for Louis…” There he stops. He doesn’t even know what to say in regards to his fledgling and former lover. Perhaps it’s best to say nothing at all. 010
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 08/10/2025He gives a nod and a slight grin. “Santiago. I’m surprised to see you here.” 010
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 07/10/2025//Fingers crossed. Hope things get resolved soon but never any rush or stress. Real life is always priority. 120
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/10/2025//Yikes! I hope you feel better soon. 110
Lestat de Lioncourt @bratprincelestat.bsky.social · 03/10/2025A wide grin crosses his face as he thinks of all he could do with fame. He would be eternal. He rather liked that idea. “It was fate for us to meet yes? I often find myself at odds with fate but I do believe she has finally done something right.” 110
