“THE ONLY THING LEFT TO DISCARD FROM MY BEING IS MY SO-CALLED "DIGNITY” at least what I have left of it, if any.“ <— omg hahaha!

*Leaning in, he gently embraces the Anon, pressing his hand on their back, lets them feel the ice of his cheek slide against theirs. Anon is androgynous, mysterious. No escape for them now, as he nuzzles into the warmth of their neck. A sharp fang draws the tiniest line of blood, and he licks at it tenderly. He feels them shiver at this touch, and pulls back.*

“Wouldn’t want to compromise you any further, my sweet appetizer. Need to keep myself light, seeking an entrée tonight.”

What does Lestat feel towards Armand?

They’re Murder Brothers! It’s so complicated.

MOSTLY tho, surprisingly, their innate curiosity and respect for each other outweighs all the horrible shit they’ve put each other through. Which has been ALOT. Lestat destroyed Armand’s coven dictatorship by being his usual ray of obnoxious sunshine The New and Improved Parisian Vampire 2.0; Armand did help orchestrate the death of one of Lestat’s fledglings and maybe tortured her, too??? before manipulating another of his fledglings into a 100 yr relationship… there’s more than that, but those are big ones.

They seem to be over it all, they’ve made a kind of peace, but they have that contentious kind of rivalry and competition that brothers have.

AR was doing this Fan Questions for Lestat thing awhile back, and Lestat spoke directly about his feelings towards Armand, and I think “he” put it very well:

“Armand’s thoughts are almost impossible for me to penetrate, and his boyish countenance often reveals nothing of his true calculations and feelings. I love him and I respect him — and I know that he loves me — but I never for a moment imagine I’m entirely safe with him.” [X]

And: “I love Armand deeply. My view of Armand has evolved over time. The less I fear him, the more I love him. And the more I suffer, the more I come to understand Armand’s suffering. I have never doubted Armand’s love for me. We are kith and kin, Armand and me.” [X]

I think you have to consider how Armand feels towards Lestat, too.

“I hate him only because I cannot imagine my soul without him.” – Armand about Lestat, The Vampire Armand, [X]

Shit where did I park Louis

The real question here is: Is he asking Louis where he parked (the car) OR is he asking where he parked Louis (the vampire)

Louis does not stay parked, it’s very inconvenient.

If you don’t love Lestat, you’re wrong.

What’s also kind of beautiful about this little moment (and part of why we love Lestat) is that we can see Lestat’s internal self-deprecation juxtaposed so starkly w/ his external display. Just a few lines after he reveals how “the sheer excitement was excruciating, and the love I felt for him was positively humiliating”, he has to immediately take a stab at Louis, somehow, and it’s almost stuttered out in these teensy bite-sized sentences:

“One thing, Louis,” “Those clothes. Impossible.”

He wants to make sure Louis is suffering as much as he is, w/o really injuring him, and if he has to stoop so low as to criticize his fashion sense, HE’LL DO IT, DAMN YOU. The Lestat we see in IWTV is an even crueler sassy bastard, much of it being self-defense for how much he was hurting during that time period, too ;A;

Louis is, fortunately, more durable than he appears to be, and clever enough to have figured this out, which is why they’ve survived each other been able to stay together so long ;]
