loustat au where louis was born a girl but lives as a man "for business reasons" and lestat was born a girl but was raised as a man so his brothers wouldn't kill him and the courtship era isn't just about vampirism or gay sex, it's also lestat trying to subtly say that louis isn't the only trans man in louisiana and louis thinks its another french thing
#lestat offers louis the dark gift in the church and then gives a psa on how louis needs to be really really sure of his haircut rn#louwee mon cher we can make a stop by the barber if you wish. no i think you look amazing just ma maman made that mistake and#yes ma maman is also un vampire et un transvestite cest genetique#trans louis#trans lestat#t4t loustat#the vampire lestat#lestat de lioncourt#lestat iwtv#loustat#the vampire louis#louis de pointe du lac#louis iwtv#loustat au#i think they would both have really interesting thoughts on gender because lestat is quite fem and louis is catholic#i dont necessarily think he'd be in full denial but louis would take a while to embrace that he's more a trans man than a Good Businessman#whereas lestat has basically zero dysphoria and thus wears shit louis would never even consider
