The Vampire Lestat 3.02 Toledo

[veryintricaterituals]

Imagine you are a minor noble girl in Italy in the 18th century and your family married you against your will to the most horrible loser and he forced himself on you night after night and he impregnated you and made you put your life in danger year after year to bear him sons and daughters that barely survived and when they did they hated you as much as you hated them. And the only thing you can do is try to escape your life through books. And you had one son, just one son, that you could see yourself in, and you did everything in your very small power to get him out of there, you sold your remaining jewels and you said, if I must die then he needs to get out, one of us needs to get out, and when you go looking for him, to die by him, he comes and grants you not only eternal life (when you had been so afraid to die and die for nothing and after doing nothing) but also power, enough power that you would never be in that situation again.... That happened to my close personal friend Gabrielle de Lioncourt

also on the topic of gabrielle can we please as a fandom be able to talk about the complexities of her and lestat's characters and their relationship without immediately going "EW OMG LESTAT KISSED HIS MOM" every 5 seconds. i'm already doomed to the fate of being unable to talk about book claudia and louis. please

Gabriella is everything, and I love her, and she's amazing. I'm so excited for every fucked up thing she is gonna do.

[chicalepidopterareblogs]

Book accurate Gabriella sighting!!!

In an ideal world, Raglan and Gab would swap bodies for the sake of their respective gender dysphoria.

[thesamuraiturnedpretty]

Look, if she's not Terrible and Self-Centred, and if the show doesn't let her be terrible and self-centred without punishing her for it more than it does the male characters, then What's Even the Point?

[humanveil]

I serve it to you now, how it felt then. Fledgling, lover, mother.

[aroldpdl]

if we don't see gabrielle experiencing gender dysphoria then what even is the point

[tearsdontcare]
