Pallid as orchids, these vicious souls who filled the hall with their simmering outrage, their envy, their greed. You would have thought they hated Lestat if for no other reason than his flamboyant beauty. — THE QUEEN OF THE DAMNED, Anne Rice

#finished another rewatch tonight and noticed that in this scene #the positioning of louis vis a vis the glory hole poster #seems very purposeful in terms of visual language #initially louis's body always hides the hole from the viewers #like the frame in the first gif here #like a small protection a lover's shield against cruelty on display #but as the textual and visual rapes unfold #the hole comes into view #actually the first time we see the hole was right before the line #“he had my legs pulled apart”#the fact the hole was written into the script #and a throughline of creative decisions executed the idea so well #god i love this show #tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire #sexual assault cw

I won't have her/them exploited.

#i think ultimately both louis and daniel are very ego driven #they rationalize their self-serving tendencies #to justify their exploitative behaviors #which is partially why they have a decent rapport #also why they both tend to have a hard time #recognizing their own faults #meanwhile lestat might seem ego drive #but he is actually id driven #this pissed off louis and is currently pissing off daniel #they might think lestat is on an egocentric revenge tour #but the reality is that they're the ones #who are on an egomaniac trip #tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire

THE VAMPIRE LESTAT 3.3

#i sobbed at this #i mean i was crying throughout the loneliness #but the fact that both magnus and gabi left #and nicki stayed and smiled and cheered for lestat #who's finally baring his soul and finding hope despite everything #and that's how lestat will always remember him #loving music loving art loving him on the stage loving HIM #that's the most tender part of nickistat #i'm so glad that's what stayed in the end #tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire

has anyone made a gifset paralleling lestat's recount of nicki's death with what happened after louis's 1973 suicide attempt? bc in lestat's mind that was most definitely a "history repeats itself" moment. his loves hurting themselves ("did you hurt yourself?") and him being unable to help them, and armand being the only other person in the room. lestat likely thought armand was gonna "mercy-kill" louis like he did nicki, which is why he so desperately wanted louis to know he loves him bc that's what he told nicki at the very end.

#tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire #this also put a new layer into armand's calculus in 1973 #and the armandstat dynamic in general #anyway if there's a gifset for this pls let me know #bc i won't go into the main tags even with a gun to my head #ugh i miss my ps equipped macbook from my previous job

THE VAMPIRE LESTAT: "Toronto"

#i'm so curious about their dynamic #she does seem fiercely loyal to him #the fact that lestat calls her lover #and her clear disdain towards gabi #i'm sure lestat is paying her an insane salary #and judging by her past anecdote #she's probably into the crazy touring lifestyle anyway #but i do wonder if there's something genuine there #tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire

That’s disgusting, think it’s some sort of a glory hole

That is - - um. Definitely a glory hole, anon, and frankly, Louis should kill them all again!

It adds to the interesting thread of oral objectification and sexual exploitation in this episode though, between Daniel saying the band thinks Black Licorice is about Lestat fellating Louis, calling Lestat a blowup doll, and Magnus' fingers in his mouth during the rape scene. It's - - a lot. Everyone wants his mouth open, but nobody wants to hear him.

#omfg this makes me so irrationally angry #truly diabolical set design decisions being made this season #it's incredibly effective but jfc that coven died too soon #thinking abt louis sitting there looking at that poster #actually just thinking abt jacob arriving on that set #and seeing that poster #*head in hands*#tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire #sexual assault cw

Thinking relentlessly about Louis reading Bruce Claudia's diary, and the way he almost positions it in the moment as the reading of a victim statement as he plays judge, jury and executioner in his trying of her rapist, when it's not a victim's statement. It's still a father reading his daughter's diary, the further theft of her voice and the endless invasion of her privacy. The infantilisation of even her memory, her story already shared with the world via the book without her knowledge or consent, and now here, again, her soul bared to the man who violated her not because she chose to, but because again, Daddy Lou will speak for her, and he wields her words as a weapon by burning Bruce with them, but he also seals them together - Claudia burned with someone who loved her, and now Louis would burn her ghost again with the man who tortured her and call it justice.

How that speaks to the way Lestat frames his own violation in this episode, how he tries to take control of the abuse by controlling how he talks about it, but it doesn't matter, because Louis already told Daniel and it's in the book for the world to read right next to his daughter's assault and it doesn't matter how much he says Magnus isn't his abuser, because Louis' already spoken for him too.

#the way the brutality of that sequence comes smashing at you #from both the audios and the visuals #louis bruce claudia and magnus lestat #just multiple levels of violations happening at the same time #of the body and of the mind #in the past but also in the present #the fact that we knew for years #some variation of this parallel is coming #but to actually see it executed in such a harrowing but elegant way #just incredible #tvl spoilers #the vampire lestat #interview with the vampire
