I’ve never been happy with my designs for Armand and Daniel sooooo I drew some I liked and then made unreadable notes. I can never get rid of very young!Daniel wearing glasses, even if they were just to make him look more serious.
I’ve always found Marius’ complete ideological 180 at the end of TVA (and presumably carrying over into his foul mood in BaG) really confusing. But rereading bits of QotD it occurred to me that Marius’ speech to Armand explaining his loss of faith has a lot of similarities with Akasha’s speech when explaining why humanity is inherently evil and overdue for a cull.
I’ve already talked about this with a few of you guys but i-want-my-iwtv thought I should still make a proper post with quotes and things, so here goes.
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR? (singing starts at 1:38)
Non più andrai, farfallone amoroso/You won’t go any more, amorous butterfly
Notte e giorno d’intorno girando/Fluttering around inside night and day
…Lestat knows this entire song.
Tom does our beloved Lestat so much justice here. That he can be so joyous at such a bizarre moment, to the point of dancing w/ a corpse (especially considering how vampires have little tolerance for even being NEAR dead bodies), really shows how much sunshine he really does have bursting inside him. He’s elated that Louis is FINALLY GETTING IT.
Also, re: *~Butterflies~*
Those 2 dogs Louis kills instead of the gorgeous older lady?
They’re papillons. French for “butterfly.”
That lady even says that and translates for us: “My papillons, my butterflies, you killed them! Ohhh noooo…!” Butterflies go through metamorphosis; so does everyone who gets turned into a vampire in this movie.
“After years of domestic isolation, Dylan reasserted himself as a star. Crowds cheered and raised their lighters as one. It was the first time anyone had seen this at a concert and photographer Barry Feinstein captured the moment for the forthcoming live album Before the Flood.”
Louis still has the coat that he wore when he was with Claudia in Paris.
Can you imagine how painful it would have been, returning to the hotel room he shared with Claudia, all her clothes and accessories exactly as they were when she left it last? ;A;
ooc; Louis did actually tell David in Merrick that he returned briefly to the Hotel St. Gabriel after Claudia’s death and retrieved the little photograph she’d had taken in Paris and that he’d left everything else behind, which the Talamasca later came to rummage through.

Boy Prisoner #2: Anything can happen when two people share a cell, cuz.
Episode 3×07 “Prison Break-In”
What did happen:
Louis ignored Armand.
They looked at art.
Funny things: I think they looked at “Demon’s Head” by (amazing symbolist painter) Mikhail Vrubel (painted about 1890).
“…Vrubel started painting sketches and watercolours illustrating the Demon, a long Romantic poem by Mikhail Lermontov. The poem described the carnal passion of “an eternal nihilistic spirit” for a Georgian girl Tamara. “, says wikipedia.
The painting is nowadays in the collection of The Museum of Russian Art in Kiev, Ukraine. But maybe it was on loan in Louvre? Or maybe they travelled to see Armand’s childhood home country. ; ) Anyway it makes a great addition to the Interview with the Vampire Drinking Game. DRink FoR ranDOM vRUbel!
Yep! Great catch! It’s not identical but it’s very close (painting from the movie below).
