Lestat has a way of explaining things.

Brad is so high.
Kirsten Dunst told Bullet magazine, re her first kiss was w/ Brad Pitt:
“It was just a peck… Everyone at the time was like, ‘You’re so lucky you kissed Brad Pitt,’ but I thought it was disgusting.
"I didn’t kiss anyone else until I was 16, I think. I was a late bloomer.”
Gottfried Helnwein: The Disasters of War, “1" & "13”, 2007, mixed media (oil and acrylic on canvas)

CLAUDIA He belongs with those reptiles, Louis. He deserved to die. LOUIS Then maybe so do we. Every night of our lives. He was my brother. My maker. He gave me this life, whatever it is. CLAUDIA I did it for us, Louis. So we could be free. He stands there, saying nothing. CLAUDIA Louis, look at me. LOUIS (bitterly) I can't. Go away from me. Claudia is shocked to her core. She steps back. Louis stares at the rippling waters. Gradually the movement of alligators stops. Then he hears a sound he hasn't heard in years. Soft, choking. He turns, sees Claudia sitting by a cypress tree, like a little girl for the first time in years. She is weeping copiously. LOUIS Claudia - You're crying - We see her face, tears of blood running down it. She is heartbroken, lost. CLAUDIA You never talked to me like that - in all these years. LOUIS And you never cried - CLAUDIA I can't bear it when you do - I would die rather than lose you Louis. I would die the way he died. Louis gathers her in his arms. LOUIS Hush, Claudia, hush now my dear - CLAUDIA Tell me you don't hate me Louis. I did it for you - Louis walks her towards the carriage. LOUIS I love you Claudia. Always. And we are free now, Claudia. No Lestat. Just the two of us, beginning the great adventure of our lives.

“Louis ! Louis ! I’m suddenly so TALL after wearing Lestat’s shoes ! ”
Lestat papa was heartbroken.
Get it?! Hahaha…

Interview illustrations : Louis and Claudia by dididouli
Here is Louis trying to protect Claudia when the theatre finally comes for them..
These are a couple of years old, I made illustrations for Interview with the Vampire and actually got an A for it (yay me). it was all made in China ink.
I worked on these pieces like mad at the time (I had a hundred of bad sketches all around my desk) and that’s how I learned to draw freely and SEEMINGLY effortlessly with a pen and ink.
So always remember to practice practice practice and look up a lot of references and then try to copy the technique and then practice again.. it’s the only way to get better.

“And Madeleine, Madeleine, I let her come to that, when I should never have made her a creature like ourselves. I knew that was wrong!”

Interview with the Vampire:
“ ‘Don’t be frightened of my fancy,’ she said softly.’After all, the final decision will always rest with you. Is that not so?’
” ‘I don’t understand,’ I said. And a cold laughter erupted from her as she turned away.
“ ‘Can you picture it?’ she said, so softly I scarcely heard. ‘A coven of children? That is all I could provide…’ ”
