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.
I’m sure we are all familiar with the scene where Lestat is speaking with Claudia and quips “I hope it’s a beautiful woman, with endowments you’ll never possess.” The line is often seen as Lestat being an absolute dick, and don’t get me wrong, he totally is here, but I think it also shows his fatherly side.
Maybe it’s just a case of my family being terrible (which I don’t think they are, usually at least), but things like that were said to me a lot growing up. That is, the “don’t grow up” part, not the “I have a murder victim in the next room” part. What I mean is that I think of this scene more in the sense of parents sensing their children are growing up, but they want to hold on to the illusion that the child is still young and in need of guidance and is completely reliant.
I think the line is really just one of Lestat’s many messed up ways of trying to say “I love you. Please don’t leave me.”
♛It’s probably for the best that he doesn’t know how much he captivates us all, how even his prone and unconscious form strangles my heart.
He also detests being praised for his physical appearance unless he put his own effort into it; after all, he didn’t give himself those piercing green eyes or the tender crease that appears between his brows when he’s worried about me. His beauty lies not just in his features, really, but the way he aches for the beauty of the world around him, his openness, his dignified demeanor even when I’m testing every last bit of his resolve. And I don’t think he considers any of that to be effort on his own part, it’s just the way he is.

So I edited some pictures of Chevailer from Versailles because him and Philipe look so similar to Louis and Lestat, except Chevalier has a moustache, so I tried my best to hide the moustache, it worked on some and then not so well on some, but they’re here for the VC fandom to enjoy anyway.
