This article claiming Daniel won his Pulitzers for IWTV took me out.

Honorable mention: calling Lestat a "former Frenchman."

[niccoguedes]

Oh… That’s why.

[nepofledgling]

I think it’s kinda funny when people write devils minion and daniel is great at communicating and using like therapy language with armand. daniel molloy the double divorced rude disrespectful asshole whose kids don’t speak to him? that daniel molloy?

[gaypeople]

Yeah, well, mortality beats a heavy drum.

[prettyeaves]

it’s a good thing history is written by the victors cause the losers seem like really bad people

[gutsandeverything]

do you think the vengeful spirits of eight american monkeys that blew up in space ever haunt everyone who's obsessed with laika. because i would if i didn't get even one shitty poem

Look, the discussion around whether or not Louis’s interview was a betrayal of Lestat is less interesting to me than talking about how Lestat’s interview is, by its very existence, a betrayal of Claudia. While there were a bunch of factors precipitating the Mardi Gras murder plot— the train, the fall, the horror of existing as a child forever— the initial issue was that Lestat would not tell her shit. Not about herself, not about his past, not about vampires in general. And now he’s spewing everything to Daniel of all people, not to mention his garage band, his groupies, his manager, his body double, anyone who listens to his music. That information was important to Claudia because it could’ve allowed here to eke out an identity and existence in spite of the tragedy of her reality; this information is integral to the development of a self-concept. This is why she liked the coven so much— because they had a coherent and shameless vampiric identity! You need to know your history to know who you are. And for the rest of the season, Lestat is about to tell us as the audience more about Claudia’s history than he ever told his daughter.

Daniel Molloy affirmations I don’t have trauma I don’t have maker issues and all of my memories are in place and trustworthy

[homano223]

them being “TOI” and “MOI” them being me and you. them being you and me. you and me. me and you. fuckkkkk

[lighthouseweeper]

I loved vampire Sam throwing out a quick non apology while Lestat was fighting for his life and Daniel’s like ‘he’s literally sorry’

[ukedulac]

i do think it’s also a bit poetic, all the men who’ve hurt claudia all get to forgive eachother, while she’s dead and nothing can change that. even when season 2’s ending has a much more fulfilling ending than that of the first book, the fact that even seventy years later after her death, and her memory is still being used to either absolve louis’s guilt or being exploited comercially, that leaves an empty and withering feeling inside.

louis and lestat get to grieve and hug, for a moment atleast. louis and armand get to smile at eachother at the auction. lestat’s not talking to louis because of the book yet the man who published the book without louis’s consent is “dan”. and i guess lestat’s also chill with sam barclay, the man who wrote the baby lulu plays, the minstrel shows that killed her passion for performing, who also wrote the script for the trial next to santiago.

it poses a personally interesting question to me, do these vampires ever truly change? can cycles be broken if you’re immortal? are you bound to fall back into your old habits? are they frozen in the same dispositions they have when they were turned? states of fear, or grief, or arousal? will they continue to hurt claudia long after her death?

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2022-) | S02E08 x S03E01

[yaoiblackmold]

Was going to make a post about Daniel being the world's oldest bisexual but then I remember Lestat, and then I remembered Armand, and then I remembered Marius, and then I remembered Mael, and then I remembered Avicus, and then I remembered Khayman. So like Daniel isn't even in the top 5 oldest bisexual.
