tired sigh

i’m not feeling the same motivation to write about my reaction to the last episode because tbh the only part of it that sincerely moved me was stained glass eyes. and god did it ever move me, i did legitimately tear up! it was deeply cathartic to see lestat’s expression of love for claudia like that, i can’t think of a more perfect way to present the depth of his sincerity on screen. it was perfect.

i just wish i felt like that about anything else i saw in this episode, and i don’t. and i have been trying so hard to remain optimistic and patient and to trust the process and to reserve my final judgment on this season until i’ve seen all the episodes, but this was episode 5 of a season that will only be 7 episodes long, and i can’t deny how empty i feel after watching it.

i’m not trying to doompost or shit on anyone who is getting more out of this season than i am, but i feel like so much of this experience could have been mitigated by just… one real, sincere, on-screen kiss between lestat and any of the men who he has loved, and who have loved him. just one moment of queer intimacy experienced by our queer lead.

i used to joke that nbc’s hannibal was the queerest ‘straight’ show on television, and then i started saying it seriously, and now i don’t consider anything about it straight (thank you to both god and jesus for bryan fuller’s finale vision. and also to hugh dancy and mads mikkelsen for delivering the most poignant last moments between their characters). now i’m in the miserable position of no longer joking when i describe the vampire lestat as the straightest queer show i’ve ever watched.

again, tiredly, if the last two episodes recontextualize any of this for me, i’ll walk all of this back. i’m still watching. but unless something big changes between now and the end of episode 7, i may not keep watching in the future.

#ray watches tvl #tvl spoilers #tvl critical #i’m sorry. i really don’t want to be so negative and i am trying very hard NOT to read or follow #a lot of other negative commentary #i’m trying to base my reactions as exclusively as i can on what i am seeing with my own eyes #i’m not reading anymore interviews or posts by other bloggers because i don’t want those perspectives #to unfairly influence what i’m thinking and seeing #this is still where i’m at unfortunately #the main reason i am still reserving judgment and trying to maintain some optimism #is the comments i have seen from assad and sam and jacob #where they fully expressed how many concerns they had with the season too #and were eventually won over by the ending #i don’t know how much of that is them having to say stuff like this because it’s their job #but they are putting their hearts and souls into these roles and i want to respect that

daniel is going to be like “hey armand do you know anything about sofia? can’t get a read on her” and armand will say “oh that’s gabriella. lestat’s mom.” and the grin that will spread across daniel’s face will look like this:

The concept of DM shippers being worried about what non-DM shippers think of Armand and Daniel if they do some evil shit together this season is kinda ridiculous. Like, no one will care if they commit some crimes as long as they do it together. They could burn the whole world down and be only them alive and it'd be romantic to us and who knows maybe we'd think it was warranted.

#armand watches only lovers left alive and gets some ideas 🥰#<- yoooo #tvl spoilers #devil’s minion
