Life is too short for hate, be brave enough to be kind.

I reserve the right to be silent human, at least until I‘m turned 😛
Wouldn’t Lestat (who has Akasha’s blood in him) be able to tell that Lemuel is Akasha’s son AND fledgling??
I think in the lawyer scene he was very much distracted, and... well. He didn't meet Seth before?
Since it looks that each character apparently has a song dedicated to them, which one do you think pertains to Daniel?
Butterscotch Bitch looks like it could fit for Daniel
These lyrics sound very similar to what he would think of Daniel:
"I've been wasting time, sitting here for hours, countin' down my fucked up crimes" ➡️(Daniel interviewing him)
"Did the flavor of my failures prove, good enough to gild your gaping wound, fill the gutter [...]" ➡️(Daniel trying to break Lestat to avoid looking into his wounds regarding Armand and his turning, + his revenge against him)
"My head is rolling 'round, will my toesies ever touch the ground, hang every rope, burn every witch" ➡️(Lestat having to deal with his own past and thus memories resurfacing + visions(?) and hallucinations caused by Daniel's questioning)
And especially "you'll never catch the Butterscotch Bitch" ➡️(AKA himself, Daniel will fail getting anything out of him and so fail to "catch" him)
Not sure about "Gimme a wrist, gimme a fist, gimme your fist Ah, Gimme a kiss, I wanna be missed I want you to hiss Ah, Give me a ship on a treacherous tide, give me your hips and I'll open you wide, a moan a groan a sigh, again and again and again" is referring to Daniel though 😅, maybe his emotions result of the questioning regarding Louis and Nicki?
The "treacherous tide" recalls to Louis for me, Lestat after all loved Louis for "being a challenge every other night" and that he'll have it no other way (S1).
Or maybe Lestat just enjoys a little challenge from Daniel and he's actually amused by him lol, after all he wrote "kisses" next to his face in the trailer so who knows 💁.
Apparently this song will be heard in the last episode, and if it's for Daniel who's supposed to be dying at the end? MHM oh dear.
I kept this back for reasons :), but yes, I do think this song is for Armand and Daniel.
Obviously the "head rolling round" is both a metaphor and very real now, but for example the "Gimme a wrist, gimme a fist, gimme your fist hah, Gimme a kiss [...]" is more aimed at Armand, who we already saw give his wrist to Lestat. The "fist" could be a reference to the book canon fight they had (the jury is still out on that one for the show), but the rest... it's either a confirmation they fucked... OR Lestat is literally telling him he can fuck him over. Probably both. IDK. Jury's still out on that one as well till we've seen the last episode :)
But yeah. I think that song is for Daniel... and Armand.
What an amazing episode!
Unless episode 7 tops it ( I doubt) then it's going to be one of my favorites episodes of the series!
I really loved the panic attack scene!!! And the bar scene.
I really want to see how Louis is going to be around Gabriella after the reveal.
Glad you enjoyed it!
And yeah... THAT is gonna be REALLY interesting *laughs*
I love the way Lestat treats Louis in episode 6. He cares about him, worries about him, supports him, and is surprised when Louis takes some initiative. He doesn't try to turn their relationship into a romantic or sexual one; he just stays by Louis' side as his friend and is content with what Louis gives him. He's just happy to have him around. And I love how Louis finally shows how much Lestat means to him. He's the one who takes the first steps towards their return to each other as a couple. I think this is how their relationship was in New Orleans during their courtship. Louis wasn't the victim they were trying to portray.
No, he wasn't (and he knows it, too).
But yes, this unfolding dynamic is... the real "them". They're getting there. Both have grown, a lot of truths are out in the open now, there's no need to hide things anymore.
It's just them now.
And this is who they are with each other.
louis picking a desert, lestat picking a forest…curious you make of that? 👀 two places that are pretty polar opposites, only thing they have in common is the birds
They also have beautiful nights and being a remote area in common.
Solitude.
... things that people were not allowed to talk about (re the heads).
But Lestat losing his head was all over Twitter for weeks.
Basically anywhere you went you could see all sorts of spoilers about Lestat, Claudia etc.. but never anything about Louis.
The theories of Lestat losing his head were out there, yes.
But those were based on hints, and the intro, mostly.
I have a inkling Louis is somehow going to turn Regina next episode.
Mhhhh. I hope not.
And not because he does not "deserve" a fledgling who does not die. But... Regina looks like Claudia.
Imagine the kind of baggage that comes with.
Like, that wound would NEVER heal then, or scab over at least. Never.
And they would NEVER be able to see her as her own person either.
Seeing the shit the devil and his minion pulled at the end (like wow knew the beheading was gonna happen but still did not see tht coming )I figured they were following loustat since the dinner or part of the night
Do u think they saw the seance and the claudia reveal 😭😭( as much as I love devils minion chaotic evil gremlin shenanigans louis and lestat didn't even get time to react for claudias words to sink in before they got their heads cut off xD)
No, I don't think they saw the seance.
I think if they had been this close Claudia would probably have gone at Armand.
Cannot wait for the day Louis finally says I love you to lestat.
Yes I will wait for YEARS idc
:)) We WILL get there.
I don't see anyone else saying it but unless I'm looking to deep into it I really don't think it's a coincidence they showed Magnus thirsting over Lestat's portrait in the little your biggest fan music video and Armand in s2 literally having another of Lestat's portraits lol
Oh, it's definitely no coincidence. :)
Lemuel to me is to show the difference between when Louis doesn't care about someone and when he loves someone. He fucks Lemuel, he loves Lestat.
... and your question is? 😅
I don't mean the lies Claudia told Louis. I mean the lies that Louis told about Lestat. Which he still hasn't apologised for btw.
Do remember the look of confusion on Louis' face when he opened the book and saw all the annotations Lestat had.
I mean, yes, Louis told some lies.
But those were minor, or misremembered, or omitted, for reasons. Also, Armand did tinker with his mind.
But the big ones, the lies that Lestat was so hurt about - those weren't Louis'. Not really.
Do you think the tapes might be for Louis? Louis mentioning how he wanted to know more about Lestat’s past this episode has me wondering if this is how Lestat decided to contextualize things for him post-qotd
Mhhhh. Maybe. But, I mean, Lestat is addressing Amel in episode 5. Who might be "in" him at that point, but... well.
What is up with 'watch the gap' with claudia stepping out of the salt circle?what does that mean?!!
*blinks*
Exactly that?! The corn starch circle was broken, and Claudia could manifest outside of it.
I think in hindsight we should have had more Loustat arguments before this episode. More hashing out the lies of the book. I like the season overall, but there are weaknesses I think they could have addressed even with the lower budget.
But Louis did not know yet they were lies.
THAT is the point of it all.
Maybe he should not have believed it all, true. But... he did not KNOW Claudia was lying to him.
CLAUDIA BEING ALONE IN THE AFTERLIFE WITHOUT MADELINE MADE ME SO SAD T_T is there a chance for them to reuinite? how does the afterlife work in TVL? I just want her to be happy and at peace she deserves it after all the pain and bs she was put through T_T
I posted earlier, too, that I could see the show open up Memnoch and the realms beyond with this.
It might be that they go there.
Because what Claudia is caught in there is likely Memnoch's "hell", and Madeleine has moved on already.
It could be that they do a story line mixed of Claudia's ghost (from "The tale of the Body Thief") and Magnus' story of leaving Memnoch's hell (from the later books) there.
“And sometimes,” said Magnus, “when those tormented souls are freed from such traps, they do ascend and vanish. And sometimes they do not ascend. They come back down, down to this earth, with their rescuers, and they linger earthbound, unfinished, restless. That is what you see in me, you see a ghost who has escaped Memnoch’s Hell, and knows him well to be a fraud. You see one who would destroy every astral vestige of his kingdom, were it in my power to do so.”
I am not sure.
I just know that I would bet real money that the show would love to keep Delainey on it as long as they can :)
And if they could do a story where Claudia's ghost could be freed and reunited with Madeleine? I'd personally absolutely love that.
(And it is well within the canon possibilities :))
