One thing I do really like about Marius and Armand is that Armand was absolutely Marius' first choice among many, many better options. In any rational world, no matter what parameters he has, Marius should choose Bianca (already a killer), Sandro (it's ok, you can take him from life, it'll be fine, he loves art like you do!), Raymond (all the same interests and is a diligent scholar), Riccardo (sweet, good, and loyal to him)... . But nope! Armand is a little hellion and a freak and far less accommodating and respects him and his values far less, and that's Marius' choice to the extent he defies Akasha. Armand is usually a fallback for other characters, but that was never true in Venice.
Do you ever. Think about how Marius tells Mael he'll wear nice clothes even as the world ends.
But when he thinks Armand is dead (and after) he's dressed in torn and dusty clothes.
Because I think about it a Lot.
Anything with Marius/Armand for sketches, if you don't mind!! No pressure though!!!!
because walking killed his grandma, okay?? 😤😤😤

You can still be playful when you’ve passed 500
Do you think Marius ever got Armand a new ring to replace the one he was given in Venice? Since it is insinuated that it became lost when Armand said that the time spent in Rome and under Paris were the only years he wore no rings, I do wonder…
The question is, is it a diamond again? Gods light, gods love? Or do we go with jet now as mourning jewelry for lost time?
Both, obviously.
Or an eternity ring of mixed stones with various meanings.

Armand studied Marius' face, reading so much there. After all how could his maker hide anything from this close a vigil, those blue eyes drinking him in just as his brown orbs fuelled by the blood alcohol did. The starry eyed gaze he craved far more than he'd ever admit. A stare of adoration that didn't find him wanting. Or atleast that's what he let himself believe once more. Both of them disarmed in a way. Not expecting a real reply to his question, he wasn't that drunk...yet. "More in general then."
The accompanying smile warming him like the sun, not reading anything other than the fact Marius possibly found himself sweet right now. Nothing to ride rancour, too intoxicated to be vexed. A cherub in this moment by name and nature. If cherubs had histories of ritual massacre and minds like a man trap. The touches up his back, concentrating on that spot between his shoulders welcome. Armands hand still snuck in between buttons moved lightly in time with Marius' caresses. Small circles with delicate ringed fingers on that fine chest.
"More drink and questions with it?" Watching his maker hold the bottle. "Necking." He said suddenly. "-from the bottle." Armand added with glee in his voice, how very uncouth of the elder. How typical he would make the meaning a double entendre. Feeling a blush to his cheeks.
I couldn’t illustrate Marius discovering Armand’s death without illustrating his emotional reunion with him. From “The Vampire Armand.”

Marius and Armand embrace, grateful to have each other. Prince Lestat era.
This utter assault on your emotions is brought to you by Chapter 22 of “Blood Communion.”
