Anybody else remember that time that Lestat was chasing Louis through the streets and Louis closed a glass door in his face and Lestat splatted into it like a big bird into a Windex’d window?

‘Cause I sure as hell do. Occasionally I remember the scene and chuckle to myself.

“…And so he ran after me all the way back to the hotel, all the way across the rooftops, where I hoped to lose him, until I leaped in the window of the parlor and turned in rage and slammed the window shut. He hit it, arms outstretched, like a bird who seeks to fly through glass, and shook the frame.” – Louis de Pointe du Lac, Interview with the Vampire

What do you love most about Lestat?

merciful-death:

My muse HAS to answer everything truthfully for one hour, starting now!

It is impossible to expect me to give one definitive answer.  To love in such a manner, it is not a matter of picking favorite traits.

I love his vigor.  He’s not one to allow himself to become bored or secluded easily.  He does not think before he acts.  He simply does, and I have always envied him for being able to live in such a way.

I love his capacity to love others.  Lestat sees in humanity all of the positives, of which I also cannot claim to fathom for myself.  He sees beauty in all.  There is no being in this world that he does not feel is important in some way.

I love the forgiveness that he is capable of giving.

I love his seductiveness, his tenderness, and even his cruelty.

I love him as a whole.

“He told me then to go look at his father myself, since I was the one who was always `looking,’ and I did. The old man was truly dying… And as he moaned and prayed for death, Lestat in the other room began to play the spinet. I slammed it shut, barely missing his fingers. `You won’t play while he dies!’ I said. `The hell I won’t!’ he answered me. `I’ll play the drum if I like!’ And taking a great sterling silver platter from a sideboard he slipped a finger through one of its handles and beat it with a spoon.”

This is every night spent with Lestat, truly.

I think that’s a bit of an exaggeration.

That is true, I suppose. The rest of your time is spent fawning over nude photographs of your mother, of which I loathe finding around the house.

Lestat interrupts his bedtime story with an interlude of self-adoration hoping that Louis will pet him or kiss him to shut him up! #Tactical immaturity
