For Burnadette_dpdl.

Something happy was promised. We have a decent amount of Louis and Claudia fics out there (decent…), but not nearly enough Lestat and Claudia. Obvious reasons, no doubt, but he did love her in his own way.

This is a sort of alternate universe where they adopt Claudia—without turning her—as a baby instead.

Sweet little AU ficlet, gifted to me, and I am so very touched! What a lovely gift ❤ 

@grrhatlet is right, there is a dearth of Lestat and Claudia fics out there, and this was much needed.
