I really think Vampire Academy could transition into tv or film but it always falls short. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE the movie but since it was a box office failure they never continued the series.
But lately I’ve been thinking, couldn’t they make the show animated. I think an anime adaptation would be the best medium and most successful way for the books to be accurately portrayed but I’ve never seen anyone mention and just wondered if anyone else felt the same way??

Dimitri Belikov is ALSO the name of a general in Call of Duty... I was NOT expecting to hear the first name as Dimitri after hearing him referred to as belikov... im sharing cause I have no one else to be mind blown with on this topic lol

Wow, I've believed the VA fandom has been dead for ages, I was surprised to find an active Reddit while doom scrolling. I found the book collection late and already as an adult, in 2014, but it became an obsession for a few years.

I quite enjoyed the comic version of the books and was gutted to learn only 3 had been made. Since I am not an artist, but I know my way around Photoshop quite well, I tried make more using the Sims 2 lol I started in 2015 and went into an ongoing hiatus before the end of chapter 6 of Blood Promise a few years back; editing was a lot of work, I tried to follow the aesthetics of the official comic. This was my only contribution to the fandom, thought to share *shrug*

You can check it all on its dedicated Tumblr

Richelle definitely found her footing with Bloodlines, it felt more polished and less flawed like Vampire Academy and Sydney and Adrian had a less problematic and more healthier dynamic that is easier to root for, especially these days.

I'm definitely in the minority (not the first nor the last time) but I definitely think Bloodlines is better than Vampire Academy. Still miss this series so much!

Hey I just wanted to let anyone know if they were interested that the hard copy of Shadow Kiss is being sold on ebay. I know the price is a lot but I recently just got both frostbite and Shadow kiss and they were very expensive too.

Can you imagine how awesome it would be?

I've been listening to mostly graphic audios these past few months and I've found them really enjoyable. There are even some books that I almost DNF'd while reading, but decided to try listening to the GA version first, and ended up enjoying simply because of the voice actors and sound effects

Does anybody know if there's a way to request a book/series to be picked up by graphic audio? I feel like vampire academy would do really well! I honestly wouldn't mind seeing hearing Khaya Fraites (as Rose) and Jessica Schly (as Lissa) work together again

Does anyone else wish we’d have gotten more worldbuilding?

I’m so curious about the history of the Moroi, and later the dhampirs and Strigoi!! I wish the books delved into how Romanian culture really influenced and was influenced by vampire culture.

For example, I thought about how the Moroi’s need for human blood would have realistically influenced their cuisine, melding with Romanian food to make new dishes and ways of consuming blood.

I’m writing a worldbuilding doc for my VA fanfic, but I know very little about Romanian history. I just saw that parts of what would become Romania were conquered by the Roman empire for a time. If Moroi are supposed to be unique to Romania, then I find it kind of hard to believe that they’d be conquered by the Romans (unless maybe Romans had witches on their side?). And I didn’t really want to go the alternate history route of making it so that Romania wasn’t conquered by the Romans, since the Roman-Thracian/Dacian and Slavic mix of cultures is cool to explore. Thoughts?

I read a bit about how the word “Strigoi” likely comes from the Greek “Strix” meaning a bird witch who fed on blood and human flesh. That kind of messed up the idea I have for the “first Strigoi”, since this info from folklore/mythology would translate to witches in VA being the first Strigoi. Thoughts?

Feel free to DM me if you want to chat!!

Hi everyone! I am trying to track down the exact link or archive for a specific Rose and Dimitri Vampire Academy fanfiction that I read a while ago.

I remember the author's name being shadowkissed (or shadow_kissed), and the title is likely "Choosing Us," but I'm having trouble finding the active link online.

Here are the specific plot points I remember:

The Setup: It is a Cabin Divergence story that starts and shows their night at the cabin in Shadow Kiss. The tragic book ending (Dimitri getting turned) never happens.

The Trials & Date: Rose goes to do part of her Guardian Trials in a desert setting. Alberta is supportive of their relationship. She even arranges for Dimitri to escort Rose between her trials, which allows them to sneak away for a date at an Italian restaurant. I think?

The Russia Trip: They end up travelling to Baia, Russia to see Dimitri's family.

Abe: abe, Janine, Lissa, Christian, Eddie, Adrian, Sydney, and I think Jill exist. They spend time in one of abes houses?

No Pregnancy: There is absolutely no pregnancy trope in this fic.

Does anyone have a direct link to this story, a PDF/EPUB copy, or know if the author went by a different name on FanFiction.net / AO3? Any help finding it would be amazing! Thank you!

So excited to get it, idk if I should reread the series or not because whenever I do that I get bored any advice?

Hi all. I'm completely blind andn I watched the tv show using audio description. For those who don't know, audio description is an audio track that is added over the film or movie that is playing. In this track, a person describes what is happening on screen so a blind person can follow what's going on. The audio description, or DVS for short, can't change the movie in any way in terms of dialog. And yes, if a cuss word is spoken in a subtitle, the narrator has to say it out loud. In this case though, the person doing the audio description didn't do a good job. I've always wondered about what kind of clothing feeders wore. I'd imagine it to be something close to a uniform, like what somebody in an office might ware.

Is that the actors still remain friends to this day. It's so common for movie or tv actors to play up friendship while promoting when in reality they were just co-workers and they dont interact anymore after that period is over. But I still follow a lot of main cast on Instagram and theyre still friends and will often hang out. It's so cute that the show brought them together. They all even attended weddings that happened in that friend group.

Every time I scroll through Instagram and I see pictures of them hanging out or their comments under each other's posts, it makes me smile. Weird post but I just love love and genuine friendships, lol

my litjoy bloodlines collection got delivered today! it’s so beautiful and i love the way it looks next to my VA box!

I mean think about it. If they're all going insane from using spirit, wouldn't it be possible to heal that darkness away, just like Oksana does for Rose with the ring? Or does the healing not work on other spirit users? Idk

Does anyone have the Shadow Kiss Graphic Novel for sale? For cheapish preferably? I can only find it for $60-100 and that just isn’t in my budget honestly. But i desperately want this book.
