hey. you are supposed to be uncomfortable by louis paying regina to act like claudia. it is creepy and gross. it is also desperate, grief-driven, unhealthy, and sad. AND it makes total sense for a man who built a name for himself by profiting off of women's bodies. louis' actions this season are not out of character, because he has shown us time and time again that women, particularly black women and Claudia specifically, are not people that he fully respects. louis has always treated Claudia like an object, like something that is "his". and if you feel icky or upset by the current storyline, good! that's what it is there for. idk why people are surprised in season three that the show about evil vampires is going to depict them as evil vampires.
