ooc; Ok, but let’s be honest. The most important casting call for a Tale of the Body Thief movie is who will play Mojo, considering he’s the actual star.
ooc; I s2g this will be my last quote post tonight but
ooc; We’re discussing reasoning behind why Louis refused to remake Lestat in TotBT
[10:04:28 PM] Burnadette dpdL: Louis mightve also been worried about turning him badly (he knew about Nicki temporarily being a vampotato at that pt)
[10:04:38 PM] Burnadette dpdL: so much worse to create a vampotato
[10:04:39 PM] ʟᴏᴜɪs ᴅᴇ ᴘᴏɪɴᴛᴇ ᴅᴜ ʟᴀᴄ (ﾉ￣д￣)ﾉ: VAMPOTATO
[10:04:49 PM] Burnadette dpdL: Well he was a vegetable right?
[10:04:52 PM] Burnadette dpdL: hehehe
[10:04:55 PM] ʟᴏᴜɪs ᴅᴇ ᴘᴏɪɴᴛᴇ ᴅᴜ ʟᴀᴄ (ﾉ￣д￣)ﾉ: LMFAO
[10:05:02 PM] ʟᴏᴜɪs ᴅᴇ ᴘᴏɪɴᴛᴇ ᴅᴜ ʟᴀᴄ (ﾉ￣д￣)ﾉ: The Vampotato Nicolas
[10:05:07 PM] Burnadette dpdL: INDEED
[10:05:23 PM] Burnadette dpdL: he did become french fried, y’know!

Shortly after reaching the colony, I fell fatally in love with Louis, a young dark-haired bourgeois planter, graceful of speech and fastidious of manner […]
And his naiveté conquered me always, his strange bourgeois faith that God was still God even if he turned his back on us, that damnation and salvation established the boundaries of a small and hopeless world.
[…] Louis was a sufferer, a thing that loved mortals even more than I did. […]
But I loved him, plain and simple.
– The Vampire Lestat
I kept glancing at him and away from him, as if his green eyes were hurting me. In modern parlance he was a laser beam. Deadly and delicate he seemed. His victims had always loved him.
– The Vampire Lestat
His face, quite thin and finely drawn by nature, an exquisitely delicate face for all its obvious strength […]
His beauty has always maddened me. I think I idealize him in my mind when I’m not with him; but then when I see him again I’m overcome.
Of course it was his beauty which drew me to him, in my first nights here in Louisiana, when it was a savage, lawless colony, and he was a reckless, drunken fool, gambling and picking fights in taverns, and doing what he could to bring about his own death. Well, he got what he thought he wanted, more or less.
– Tale Of The Body Thief
Marius, you turned your back on me. that came as no surprise, really. You were always the teacher, the parent, the high priest. I don’t despise you for it. But Louis! My Louis, I could never deny you anything, and you turned me away!

#when does lestat not have problems
#lestat walks hand in hand with problems right into a problem
#then he adopts that problem and raises it and the problem stabs him in the back
#Accurate
Of course I deserve it. That’s the simplest thing about dealing with me, apparently. I always deserve the worst! The worst disloyalty, the worst betrayal, the worst abandonment! Lestat the scoundrel. Well, they have left this scoundrel entirely on his own.
Lestat (The Tale of the Body Thief)
Tale of the Body Thief: A Summary
Subtitle (compliments of merciful-death): lestat acts a fool and fucks everything up part 9001 – the novel
Summary:
Lestat: I’m going to do the thing.
Louis and David: That is a terrible idea. Please don’t do the thing.
Lestat: Gonna do the thing, anyway!
Louis and David: You fucking imp.
Lestat: *does the thing* *chaos ensues* HELP ME.
Louis: You’re on your own this time. -_-
David: What did I tell you?! *helps him anyway*
Lestat: IloveyouDavid. ❤
*a little later*
David: *Enjoying being young again*
Lestat: *turns* YAY, NOW WE CAN BE BFFS ❤
#That’s exactly what happens consider yourselves all spoiled.

So accurate it’s painful. That’s it, that’s half the book right there.
I took him in my arms, oh, so cold, so unyielding, this monster which I had made out of human flesh. I pressed my lips against his cheek, shuddering as I did so, my fingers sliding around his neck.
He didn’t move away from me. He couldn’t bring himself to do it. I felt the slow silent heave of his chest against mine.
“Do it to me, please, beautiful one,” I whispered in his ear. “Take this heat into your veins, and give me back all the power that I once gave to you.” I pressed my lips to his cold, colorless mouth. “Give me the future, Louis. Give me eternity. Take me off this cross.”
#ALL THE FEELS
This is really one of the best, and most heartwrenching moments in the entire VC, and it hurts to much, every time I read it. And what’s so especially chilling about it is the role reversal! There’s an echo of Daniel in Lestat’s plea for help here. Louis is the one with ALL the supernatural power.
