Part 2/2: Diplomacywink‘s hilarious VC riff on Hyperbole and a Half’s ‘This is Why I’ll Never be an Adult’ entry.
Louis de Pointe du Lac, runnin’ the plantation like a motherfucking ADULT.
This is the first pic from Diplomacywink‘s hilarious VC riff on riff on Hyperbole and a Half’s ‘This is Why I’ll Never be an Adult’ entry.
I think this kind of speech is why Lestat is so in love with Shakespeare.
Yes. Dripping with sarcasm!
He quotes Othello in the IWTV movie when killing the whore in front of Louis (strikethroughs are words he cut out):
“Yet she must die, else she’ll betray more men.
Put out the light, and then put out the light.
If I quench thee, thou flaming minister,
I can again thy former light restore
Should I repent me. But once put out thy light,
Thou cunning’st pattern of excelling nature,
I know not where is that Promethean heat
That can thy light relume. When I have plucked thy rose
I cannot give it vital growth again,
Its needs must wither.”
(The last line should actually be “It must needs wither.”)
*~Bambi de Lioncourt~*
Claudia’s charcoal portfolio. Notice how she signs simply “C.” (Wish I knew who drew these so I can credit properly! Probably Dante Ferretti.)
Louis didn’t really think this big rebellion thing through…
I’m pretty sure the StuntHusband and I had a very similar exchange of dialog during one of the vampire LARPs.
I am dying. This is exactly their relationship.
“I think you are the one that they want to destroy. And they do know what you look like.” Little smile. “Everybody knows now what you look like. Monsieur Le Rock Star.” – Louis de Pointe du Lac, The Vampire Lestat
Just look how HAPPY Louis is here… it’s //ooc, but whatever it’s adorable.
Lestat being happy about being slammed against a tree by Louis is perfectly in character, however. He’s fucking THRILLED to get this much physical attention!
You also chose him because of his butt, admit it.
And for his suicidal tendencies.
And let’s not forget his oh so tormented dark soul.
And also because he reminded you of your dead boyfriend
although he was much prettier.……….come to think about it, maybe it’s better to stick to anger and fury.
And the great butt, yeah, that one’s okay. Compliments on great butts always work in the end.
So this production still of Lestat appears to have been taken at the Pointe du Lac cemetery… why do I care, Idek!! But then, Lestat’s wearing the shirt from the “You. Are. A. KILLER. LOUIS!” scene… at any rate, that setup led to the shot that eventually became part of the film poster.
However, the scene of Claudia and Louis at that bench wasn’t in the film. What I would give for cut scenes…. siiighhh…

The Pointe du Lac ‘tombs’ were part of the set built in Lafayette Cemetery in the Garden District of New Orleans. I suppose the pic of Lestat in the pooffy shirt and the Claudia and Louis in Jackson Square were publicity photos.
Ah, merci for the info!
