This entire season has made a point of how much the show writers hate Armand. So, based on that, I think they'll do everything in their power to completely villainize him.

The writers said they pulled from the Vampire Armand for this season, among other books. We have seen no evidence of that so far. So, whatever they pulled from Armand's book will be in Episode 7. And given their deep rooted hatred for the character and his fans, I believe that the only thing they actually pulled is the most bat shit crazy, nonsensical thing that everyone always thought is entirely stupid and most people hate; Armand's Frankenstein experiments. They'll have him turn into a complete psychopath and torture Louis and Lestat in gruesome ways.

Another thing the writers said was that Louis will feel bad for Armand at the finale. Hard to imagine how, considering that Armand will probably cut off Louis's leg and torture him and Lestat just before that, but nothing else makes sense this season, so why the hell not. I think Lestat and Armand will have a fight, Lestat will take Armand's eye out and then he'll kill Daniel in front of him. Marius will probably make a random, brief appearance to trash Armand in his face alongside Lestat. Armand will cry and Louis will briefly feel bad for him for like two seconds.

I don't think Daniel will really die though. His body will be destroyed, but his soul will be transfered in a different body à la Body Thief style (my bets are either Alex or Rashid), but then he'll somehow disappear. So Eric Bogosian is done with the show.

Akasha will come, she'll kill every single vampire except for Lestat's fledglings and the very old ones that are too strong and then she'll grab Lestat and disappear.

The streets are curently saying that Marius will also be transfered in Raglan James's body. We do know that Marius's only goal is to keep Akasha imprisoned. Now that she's loose, he'll want to find her, possibly to extract Amel from her and put him in himself or some other vampire because Akasha is a woman and she's black and hence clearly unstable and he wants a good white skinned host to be their vampire king or queen (this season is heavily pro-racism, don't forget, and Marius has always been a racist character, so it really fits).

So. Armand wants to find Daniel. Louis wants to find Lestat. And Marius wants to find Akasha. And all three of them are probably at the same place (doesn't make sense for Daniel to be with Lestat and Akasha, but hey, nothing does this season, so who cares).

And that's why Louis, Armand and Raglan/Marius are at the auction. They're all trying to buy something that they believe reveals the location of the three missing ones.

No idea what will happen with Gabriella. I don't think they'll kill her off because the writers seem to have mad love for this disgusting hag.

All other vampires that we've seen this season (Jenks, Lemuel, Fang Gang, Sam, the band etc) will be killed by Akasha.

There won't be any Devil's Minion, so Armand's heartbreak over Daniel's "death" will seem nonsensical.

A fandom event for OCs and underdeveloped characters in Tolkien's world!

This event celebrates both characters of Tolkien's world and our own characters that need more love, by creating and reblogging all kind of fanworks, like fanfiction, fanart, fanvideos, fancrafts, headcanons, playlists, edits, moodboards etc.

The event is modded by @yellow-faerie and @elamarth-calmagol, and will take place between 24th August - 30th August 2026 for the fifth year running.

NSFW text entries are allowed and we’ll tag them accordingly when we reblog them, but please put them behind a “read more”.

We'll also be tracking the tag #tolkienocweek during this week!

*******************************************

Event Schedule 2026:

1. Family (24th August)

Create a fanwork about a family member of a canon character. This could be a parent, a child, a spouse, or any other part of the family tree, either implied by canon or entirely original.

2. Friends (25th August)

Create a fanwork about someone in the vicinity of canon, such as friends, coworkers, servants, or acquaintances of a canon character. Or maybe choose someone overlooked by the characters: the ordinary soldiers, farmers, merchants, and artisans impacted by the events around them.

3. Enemies (26th August)

Share a character who is an enemy (or part of a group of enemies) of the main characters, such as a Dunlending, person from Rhun, or King's Men of Numenor.

4. Strangers (27th August)

Create a fanwork about someone from a group of people we don't learn about in canon, such as the petty dwarves, Avari, or people from Far Harad.

5. Spirits (28th August)

Share a character who is not an incarnate being, such as one of the Maiar, a vampire or werewolf, one of the Ainur who never came to Arda, or one of the lesser wraiths Gandalf refers to.

6. Ghosts (29th August)

Create a fanwork about someone who haunts the narrative without ever showing up in it, such as the first generation of elves or men, or whom Tolkien created and abandoned, such as Eriol the Mariner.

7. Freeform (30th August)

Repeat a prompt, or share a character that doesn’t fit any of the prompts!

Thanks to @hobbitwrangler for help with the prompts!

Since we want to celebrate creations about neglected characters all year long, the mods will occasionally reblog posts and fancreations about OCs and underdeveloped characters. If you would like to see your post on our blog, you're very welcome to tag #tolkienocweek. Since tumblr's tagging system is often being faulty, don't hesitate to message us, too!

I think that's part of it, yes. Stop the concert.
