“I could see a world of frescoes and murals surrounded us, their colors deep and vibrant above the dancing flame, and gradually the theme and content beside us came clear. It was the terrible `Triumph of Death’ by Breughel, painted on such a massive scale that all the multitude of ghastly figures towered over us in the gloom, those ruthless skeletons ferrying the helpless dead in a fetid moat or pulling a cart of human skulls, beheading an outstretched corpse or hanging humans from the gallows…. So vivid, so perfect was it, I shuddered.”

vampire-chronicles-rp: #WELL THIS IS SUDDENLY HILARIOUS
I know right?? Those dudes look so unhappy! “We got this fucking ship and built that whole set for like a 4 second shot omg”
i love the term “partners”
are we dating?
are we robbing a bank?
do we run a legal firm?
are we the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies and are members of an elite squad known as the special victims unit?
who knows.

Louis you are delusional.
These are not mine but I wanted to bring them together!
-
- mortal!Louis about to show us a good spot to shoot him.
-
- His “wedding” ring looks silver in this pic but the design is so similar to the other shots, it might be a trick of the lighting.
-
- It’s significant that he tries to stop Lestat w/ the hand w/ the wedding ring, and he’s grabbing Lestat’s left hand (wedding hand), too.
-
- Sit your ass down, Daniel.
-
- So a vampire can cry.
-
- End of the story, nothing more to tell. That “wedding” band gleams. Not an accident.
A chronological retrospective of the two rings Louis wears. For 200 years. Apparently Lestat could get him to change his wardrobe, kill people, and all kinds of other depraved things etc., but Louis kept his jewelry to a strict minimum.
One appears to be his wedding ring.
- in the movie version, Louis is a widow. Maybe the ring was his wedding ring.
- After the Dark Gift, he keeps it on. Maybe it’s earned new significance towards Lestat, now.
- After Lestat’s “death,” Louis continues to wear the ring. Maybe it’s significant to both people he’s lost.
The other is a pinky ring.
- This one may have just been fashionable to begin with.
- Maybe it symbolized the child who died with his wife in childbirth.
- Later, maybe it’s earned new significance when Claudia is given the Dark Gift.
- After Claudia’s death, Louis continues to wear the ring. Maybe it’s significant to both “children” he’s lost.
UPDATE: anaryawe says:
(re: Louis & rings in the film) pinky ring was a gay code, or “no marriage plz”-code at some point. I’ve always thought that Louis’ pinky ring is his dead wifes wedding ring, and so signifies both “all the loves I’ve lost” and “tried heterosexuality once and it was a disaster”…
I am blown away.
They made me look like Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.
