RULES

I prefer exclusivity. However, I don't expect it to be mutual and will always reach out to my partner before adding you. I simply prefer not to interact with more than one of each muse. On rare occasions, at my own discretion, I'll break away from this and have two mains.

This blog is a multi-verse with a set timeline per verse. This means that what happens in one thread with a muse may be referenced in another. I've found that single timeline verses are the best way to develop my muse. Writing partners aren't expected to follow this (obviously lol).

Shipping does happen, of course. Louis has had several romantic interests in the series, notably Lestat and Armand. Loustat is the main focus, so far as shipping goes. I lean towards exclusivity, but don't expect my partners to reciprocate.

If you bring drama onto my I will smite you. I don't care who was mean to whom. I don't care if you think they were toxic or rude. I'm here to be chill, not see people frothing at the mouth all over my dash.

If you're going to unfollow (and don't want me following back) make it a hard block. Otherwise, the odds of me refollowing are high.

Minor godmodding is allowed/encouraged to progress threads. Otherwise, please keep to typical Tumblr etiquette.

There will be potentially triggering content on this blog. Be aware that, for the most part, I DO NOT tag triggers. Anything with excessive gore, sexual content, etc will be tagged with nsft.

Hi! I'm Ace, 25+, and I use whatever pronouns you prefer. I've been roleplaying since 2010 and have primarily been active in the PoTC fandom. When not here, you may find me on lorelodge (multi), captainteague (Pirates of the Caribbean), or throneforged (Avatar: The Last Airbender).

And I always felt like for Louis, part of the pain of it all was the unbelievable emotional dissonance that came with thinking Lestat had tried to kill him, because the Lestat he knew (even the Lestat who dropped him) loved him, and he knew this, and (even leaving aside the Claudia of it all) that Lestat would not cold-bloodedly try to help a coven of other vampires torture and murder him and humiliate him in front of an audience of humans. But as far as he knew, that WAS what happened. And those two irreconcilable facts -- Lestat loved him more than anything, Lestat tried to kill him -- were impossible to live with, I think. And then of course, it feels like a tiny part of him was always questioning what the truth really was, which led to the interview....but yeah the sheer relief of realizing that there is no dissonance, Lestat's love for him was as total as he had believed it to be (not to mention that he wasn't actually still in love with his daughter's murderer), felt so immense in 2.08.

And on top of all that? He had Armand fucking with his head for decades, lying to him, gaslighting him, taking the pieces of his life with Lestat (in which Louis knew he was loved), and defiling them into a warped effigy of Lestat in which Louis was led to believe he was never loved by Lestat at all.

Remember what Louis said in 2x03 after Armand's little fanfic?

"He abandoned Nicki. He abandoned Armand. He abandoned the coven. Lestat is, was, and will always be for Lestat."

Because that bullshit ^^ is what Armand had been programming into Louis' head! And that is just beyond cruel. It was so cruel to take that love away from Louis.

But even with all that, Louis was still turning to Lestat for comfort!

Louis was so alone and in so much pain. He just wanted Lestat.

He knew something wasn't right and like you said, Louis couldn't reconcile with the real pieces he still had of Lestat, which we saw manifesting via DreamStat, and what he'd been brainwashed to think by Armand. Louis knew it wasn't adding up and when Daniel dropped the bombshell that Lestat had been the one to save him? That was all Louis needed, because of course. Of course Lestat's love for him always made sense.

If Armand had relayed the "I love you" to Louis in 1973, Louis would've been back with Lestat in a heartbeat. And Armand.....knew that. Hence the subsequent decades of his horrific mental torture of Louis.

Also? Look at Louis' face here —

He was waiting for that "I love you." He was desperate for it. He was aching for it.

Why?

Because he knew it's what Lestat always did for him. When Louis was spiraling, Lestat was always there to comfort him and assure him that he was loved and treasured and valuable. Louis always mattered to Lestat.

Louis had tried to kill himself, yet he had no one to comfort him or love him or soothe his pain in the aftermath. He was treated like discardable trash, berated and shamed, terrorized and intimidated.

Then he had Lestat sadistically dangled in front of him, and Louis was mentally begging to hear those words.

And of course, Lestat was giving them to him.

“Louis? Mon cher? You wanted to say something to me? Why are you ill? What’s happened to you? I love you, Louis. Tell him I love him, Armand. I love you, Louis. Tell him, Armand! Tell him! Louis? Louis? Louis! Louis!” 

Let's not forget the letter either —

My Louis. In the event that you are reading this, something dreadful has occurred, which is not my own death rather the fact that we both now exist in two different worlds. Do not waste your life seeking revenge on the person or persons who did this. Do not give them the satisfaction of the hunt. Let treachery eat away at them from within. And you? You go carry on with your living. Know only this, mon cher, you are the only being I trust and whom I love above and beyond myself. All my love belongs to you. You are its’ keeper. A veil will now forever separate our union, but it is a thin veil. And I’m always on the other side. Face pressed up against your longing.

And Louis' agonized reaction to it —

Because he truly was longing for Lestat. He knew that letter was sincere. He went to Roget in the desperate hopes that Lestat was still alive, and he was crestfallen when he believed Lestat was really dead.

He spent the entirety of their journey through Europe begging Claudia to go home i.e. back to Lestat —

From Claudia's diary in 2x01 —

He asked me if we can go home. Home? Run back to New Orleans. Pry up his bones, why don't you?

Because Lestat is Louis' home!

And last but certainly not least, Louis' favorite suit on Lestat —

"You might not know this, but I had the tailor inscribe your initials on the back side of the ticket pocket. Right here. So your name would always cradle my heart."

Louis knew Lestat had his initials inscribed on the ticket pocket, and that’s why the suit was Louis’ favorite. Louis is always right there against Lestat's heart. Cradling Lestat's heart. Shielding Lestat's heart. The keeper of Lestat's heart.

And Lestat.....is always the keeper of Louis' heart.

"I tried to paint alternatives.....lucid what ifs. Wear a different suit the night you meet Lestat at the Fairplay. Snatch the piece of candy from the barber when you're seven years old. Would I have been stronger sooner? Would I have resisted Lestat two decades later? Snatch the candy. Be the man in the different suit.....but the suit changes nothing and again, I'm kissing Lestat on the altar."

I went off on a bit of a tangent. 😅 But Louis has always fatally loved Lestat with every fiber of his being, and it was always inevitable that Louis would find his way back to his heart and back to his home.
