20 freakin’ years and they can’t include the deleted scenes.
I’m still pissed off about the lack of deleted scenes.
Gone By Morning // And when darkness settled over Paris once more, they would remark at her ashes in the dust and the pain in his soul. A mix for the end of Louis
and Claudia’s love. You can listen to it here.
lestat is a delightful and infuriating protagonist. the part in TVL where he loses his shit when marius shows him the king and queen is so very endearing (well it’s endearing if you’re not armand i guess)
Totally endearing! Armand is kinda charmed too but he would never admit such bc he jelly that Marius told/showed ‘Stat stuff Armand didn’t seeee

IKR?? I know it’s just a dude throwing grapes at another dude BUT THERE IS SMTG ABOUT IT OK. SMTG CAPTIVATING. Maybe bc it’s kind of the opposite of what sexay vampires should EVER DO? Maybe bc neither one of them can eat grapes?? It’s inexplicable.
Louis has perfected near zen-like patience bc honestly LESTAT HAS DONE SO MUCH WORSE TO HIM AND REACTING ONLY ENCOURAGES MORE.
And the calmer reactions:
#True facts.
#Accurate.
They’re only bothering to pretend bc in the books Lestat’s dad was living with them at the time. And he WAS BLIND SO THEY PRETENDED TO EAT DINNER WITH HIM FOR SOME SENSE OF NORMALCY.
