ONCE AGAIN BEGGIN FOR THIS!!

[interviewiththevicious]

On the s1 finale and Lestat definitely told louis about akasha. I thought it was weird Louis tells Claudia she shouldn't try to kill Lestat because "he isn't mortal." Because none of them are HELLO. Unless of course Lestat revealed it off screen during épisode 6 when they said no more secrets. Or even just told louis privately. Also in the S2 finale when he says "he doesn't know who that is-" in reference to Akasha makes much more sense if louis already knew.

Delainey out here living my dream 😩

[sillystigmata]

The twirl is lethal.

God this feels like such a different show now. Louis definitely knew Lestat longer than he implied prior to his turning. The way lestat's verbiage automatically turns saccharine after the salesman doesn't make sense otherwise. Plus when louis is trying to leave after, Lestat reassures each worry and tells him to breathe as if guiding him through a panic attack is something he's had to help with before. There's also the comments from him family who have found out from other people other than louis about his kinship with this white man he's familiar enough to go to opera's with. Louis also had that man at his house... TWICE! he was very much brazzy in his courtship with Lestat I fear

[interviewiththevicious]

So I'm beginning my rewatch of iwtv in lieu of season 3 and it's crazy how much I missed. in s1 x e1 while on the roof, Paul teases louis and says "daddy said I was gonna look down on you for the rest of days." And then louis is always filmed below the portrait of Paul. Plus louis was always going to outlive Paul so it plays into the unavoidable fate louis later comes to grips with.

Ladies and gentlemen, the most beautiful vampire in existence. The kohl-eyed Vampire Armand.

[hollowwaveremnant]

As was foretold. Assad Zaman as Armand is Verrocchio's David, as intended by God and Anne Rice

Inspiration credit to Rai on X

This is a version of Armand who's a bit more desperate maybe. A bit more bitter, a bit less in control.

[bifauxnenarmand]

armand being alone for the first time in his life, the intimate details on his history of sexual slavery being put on display for thousands of people to perceive and treat like a fictional story, people going to see and take photos of his whitewashed painting of his younger self that he was raped for and making sexual and emasculating comments about him, causing him to relive a traumatic part of his past he thought he’d lock away, being perceived as a sexualized object by white people, then finding out his fathermakergroomer, the only one who’s felt truly safe (false) and loved by, was alive all this time and never came to save him, but instead mentored lestat, a white blonde carbon copy of him who looks like he could be his son, and told him all the secrets of vampires he kept from him and how much he regretted giving armand the gift, his traumatic history possibly going to be talked about publicly a second by lestat on tv which will also be perceived by thousands and even more so since lestat’s a famous rockstar, a lot of vampires possibly hating his ass for being involved with the book that he didn’t even want out in the first place, all while he’s going through post partum depression after giving his first vampire birth to an annoying old man, and did I mention he’s alone for the first time in his life during this

anyway armand’s s3 subplot is literally going be this

[catsplushellhounds]

oh honey you got a BIG storm coming

Where’s that one post that said interview with the vampire basically personifies the saying “behind every gay person there is an evil more gayer person.”
