Ooc; one of my favourite parts in the The Tale of the Body Thief is when Lestat burns Loius’ little shack down. He gathered priceless art so they won’t burn and uses Louis’ own candles to burn down the place while uttering:
“Oh, you deserve this, you treacherous ungrateful bastard!”
Followed by:
“Louis, I wish I could burn you! I’d do it! Oh, if only I knew where you lie by day!”
Lestat and Louis use fire to get back at each other. It must be love!
♛ That was a particularly dark moment for us. I still bear a scar – albeit figurative – for that scathing betrayal, even as I’ve come to understand the logic of his decision at the time, but giving him a taste of his own kerosene certainly helped.
//Lestat your response is so perfect.
I had somehow forgotten that he saved the paintings; that somehow makes it the perfect OTT Lestat gesture. And he wonders why Marius (somehow survived his house being burnt down, 1499) is so mad at him!
“I just wanted to say that merciful-death is a wonderful mun and an incredibly RPer. They RP Louis with an acerbic wit that is incredibly difficult to capture, and truly do amazing thing to grasp his self-loathing and depth of character, not to mention his not-so-savoury parts of his character. She is also one of the sweetest muns and works so hard to be inclusive. I’m so grateful to have her in the fandom!”
Currently imagining Lestat who, after several hundred pages of what the fuck is now the leader of the vampires making it a law to “not talk shit about Bon Jovi”
Say what you want about Lestat’s musical contributions, but YEAH: TALK SHIT ABOUT BON JOVI and prepare to DIE. SLOWLY. ON FIRE. to the tune of “Livin’ on a Prayer.”
