while I don’t think an aged up Claudia would give a second thought to ravishing Louis,
YEP NO HESITATION THERE bc let’s be honest we all want to ravish Louis ok.
she’s a symbol for everything that horrifies him about himself, and I don’t think that that would exactly be grounds for amorous thoughts.
Indeed.
Sure, he loves her and cares for her,
Exhibit A:
but I think if she was an adult, it’d be a lot easier for him to see just how far mentally out there she is, how evil, how unable to understand human goodness she had grown to be.
She’s worse than Lestat about playing w/ her food, that’s for sure, and choosing to kill innocents specifically is NOT a turn-on for Louis.
I mean this in the kindest way… LOUIS IS A BAD ASS MOTHERFUCKER OK so people need to let go of this singular-mopey-tortured-soul-Louis thing!
Your headcanon may vary of course, but this is my interpretation…
I still haven’t finished Prince Lestat but I know some of the spoilers. I won’t share them here except to say that I understand Louis gets a good chapter to himself. He’s in Prince Lestat and he does make the impression of someone who is comfortable in his own skin and generous in his interactions with others, so far as I’ve read.
Aside from that, Louis shook off his mortal coil as early as in IWTV. When still but a fledgling, he stood up to Lestat during the Freneire incident, “And so I physically grappled with Lestat. I held him… I held him in the dark, where he spit at me and cursed at me…” Lestat sounds like an angry cat. That must have been fun. NOT.
He helped Claudia escape from Lestat. He burned down the Theatre des Vampires in revenge for Claudia. Etc.
In my favorite fanfic and RP threads, Louis is a BAMF. He doesn’t let anyone step on his toes, and he enjoys time to himself, but he’s not merely a hermit the sum of his library. He’s protective and nurturing of Lestat (and others) in physical AND emotional ways, which are reciprocated in kind.
Louis is at odds with everything. He always has been. Even in his darkest, saddest moments, there was the little flame of his ego and will to survive. It’s one of his most endearing qualities.
I think it’s this ego and indomitable nature that draw Lestat – and others – back to him again and again. Also, Louis is very pretty ❤
I did them all, because they’re fun! Also, keep in mind that my brain is completely fried from Uni.
Who is louder? Lestat, being the singer he is, starts off louder than Louis. Almost composing whole ballads in honour of Louis’ crimson chest sweat. However, this really fuels (haha) Louis, with him being eventually the louder one. (Also, Louis needs to make sure David hears what they are up to, bc that’s a thing, obviously) Who is more experimental? Definitely Lestat, no question here. I mean, you just need to start *any* sentence with “Lestat, should we…” and the answer will be YES LET’S DO THE THING I KNOW PLENTY OTHER THINGS TO GO ALONG WITH THE THING TO MAKE IS THE BEST THING EVER. Who takes more risks? Louis, because his love is on fire. Okay let’s try to be serious here. I will say Louis, as I am quite certain Lestat wouldn’t see things as risky. Do they fuck or make love? Even the kinkiest, dirtiest, naughtiest fuckery is in its essence an act of love between them, so I’ll go for good ol’ love making. Lights on or off? Lights? They love it. Who is more likely to be caught masturbating? I think Louis. Unless Lestat is in a mirror maze, man, he loves getting it off with lots of images of himself. Who is more likely to suggest a threesome? LESTAT. Has either stolen the other’s underwear? The first years, Lestat tried to convince Louis that novice vampires run around naked. It didn’t work – except for that one time – since then no underwear is safe from Louis’ path of revenge. Who comes first? Louis. Who is better at oral and who prefers it? Louis is better at it, Lestat prefers it. Who is more submissive? You know, my first thought would be Louis. But I can really picture him being the only one Lestat could truly submit to. Who usually initiates things? When doesn’t Lestat initiate things? Who is more sensitive? Lestat. Who has the most patience? Lestat. It is known. Which kinks do they share? Since it has been many, many years since the fire incident, every now and then they really get into fire-play – for the old days’ sake. They both have a hair fetish, as that is one of they few things still human-like. *Okay kids, better tune out here* Oh, and they are utterly into fisting. I am convinced and nobody could tell me otherwise.
I mean, you just need to start *any* sentence with “Lestat, should we…” and the answer will be YES LET’S DO THE THING I KNOW PLENTY OTHER THINGS TO GO ALONG WITH THE THING TO MAKE IS THE BEST THING EVER.
