reminder that this is still all through lestat’s eyes so no, that was not the REAL claudia. what we saw was lestat’s experience of her ghost and her rage. i do, however, feel like that was a much closer representation of who she likely was than louis’ version simply because lestat saw and loved her for the beautiful, vicious monster she was and louis denied her that acceptance. i don’t think we will ever see who she was without being filtered through someone else and that’s part of her tragedy.
i’m not saying this to deny her words, but rather to dispel the belief that it was fully 100% authentically her. i loved loved loved her rage and i want more actually, don’t misunderstand.
