A female friend group WOULD fix Armand but Anne Rice often forgot to consider women as people and so this did not happen

Everyone keeps going “the Seance is the first time we’re really meeting Claudia. Not Louis’ version of her.”

NO! This is Lestat’s version of her! That’s the point! The cast talked extensively about this. Memory is a monster and Claudia is dead! We will never meet Claudia. She is always filtered through the recollection of another. That’s what death is! That is the tragedy of Claudia! She will never get to tell her own story outside the context of those diaries. Those diaries are the closet we ever get and we the audience are still only getting those as fragments filtered through the journalistic view of Mr. Daniel Molloy.

I love lestat's version of louis. he's captivating, he's witty, he's scarily intelligent, he flirts with cruelty, yet he has the capacity for extreme restraint and composure, and it's all paired with that face.....lestat i understand you. I get it.

[claumandscathedral]

louis honestly is so sweet and cute for describing lestat to daniel as this captivating, infinitely magnetic charming giant when lestat post akasha has been isolated crazy for 100 years kept company with statues and ghosts and is effectively a dazy little dog confused and hungry for love and was definitely trying sooo hard during the courtship period to be a good suitor and make louis like him. But louis is so in love with lestat he just often doesnt register the weight of lestats trying (ie the alt shot of lestat holding up the matching suits, biting his lip) because to him, there is no discernment between the goofy eager nervous attempts to please and the all inclusive seduction that is lestat

[linatells]

How am i supposed to go on about my day knowing claudia and madeleine are apart? That madeleine accepted death hoping to be reunited with claudia in the afterlife only for claudia to be stuck nowhere bc of her unfinished business, unable to move on. That she has looked everywhere for her and she is surely looking for her lover too, wherever she is. That destiny is so cruel and after having such hard lives and a short time with each other, STILL not even in death can they rest peacefully together.

this episode fucked me up so bad

No one is doing it like them

One thing I'm really loving about the perspective shift between Interview with the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat is how Lestat and Louis appear in each other's narratives, through each other's eyes.

Louis sees Lestat as this primal force of nature who looks like a romance novel hero, can effortlessly control any room, is "preternaturally charming," impeccably turned out, no one can say no to him for long.

but we get in LESTAT'S head, and suddenly he has scars and a tangled mane of hair, people are constantly talking over him, he sweats, he's getting beat up and his clothes are getting destroyed in a non-sexy way, he's flailing around wildly with NO idea what he's doing, people (lestat included) think he's untalented and annoying.

And LOUIS, well. Louis clearly sees himself as uncanny, reserved, compelling but a little off-putting. He is other: cut-off from humanity, holding his emotions and relationships at arm's length.

Then we see him in The Vampire Lestat, and it's like no. This is the warmest, cutest, sexiest, coolest, most capable and most desirable man who has ever walked the face of the earth.

[thevampirealina]

imagine being the vampire lemuel this season. you are hired as a vampire lawyer by some guy named thomas pitt who’s actually the vampire louis de pointe du lac from the new york times bestseller Interview With the Vampire because he’s being sued by his ex for defamation. alright cool whatever. then louis starts to fuck you and i’m assuming you haven’t read the book because if you had you’d know how that goes. also you turn a blind eye to him grooming a 20 something year old waitress. he rebounds with his ex on a park bench which you hear about from the talamasca after he got beheaded by his other ex (perhaps other two exes you’re honestly unsure about daniel) and now the queen of all vampires akasha is coming for all of you or something. you just wanted a pay check and some dick and now everything is fucked.

[theelastword]

armand’s apology to louis delivered in a sarcastic way versus louis’ apology to armand delivered in a sincere way despite the hours of torture he just suffered…… ldpdl one of these days you won’t simultaneously be one of the many morally complex abusers on this show but also the ONLY person on this show who is forced to take accountability for it. one day someone is going to apologize to you and they’re going to actually mean it. no sarcasm, no throwing distracting gifts at you; just a genuine, simple “i’m sorry.”

[carmillaswifeaurora]

On a second thought, I love the fact that we were all so wrong about Loustat dynamic this season. We were writing all those friends-with-benefits or hate-sex fics but honestly we should've known. That those two would not be able to be casual or less than stupidly romantic about each other. Of course they became friends again first. Of course they haven't kissed yet. Of course.
