and then he wakes up at 4am and is like “wait. donna implied cas is to me as doug was to her. and i didn’t correct her.” *several beats of silence* “hang on, she better have meant doug ii, that first guy was a piece of shit.”

god they literally resurrected the perfect mother-wife in a white nightgown and said actually she's a real person, not a memory, and she wears jeans and flannel and she's emotionally distant and she feels more comfortable punching things than she does talking to her children and by the way she can't even cook. and there are people that actually for real honestly truly think that wasn't the hottest thing the show's ever done?? they think it was bad??? every day i suffer.

Shen Yuan is actually a great cautionary tale abt underestimating the effect your presence has on the ones you care about. You are fucking important. Your good actions matter, and won’t be completely erased by one bad deed. Your life matters. People care about you. They won’t stop caring about you just bc you think they would be justified to. Communicate. Do not kys right in front of your favourite person out of a misguided attempt to cheer them up with your death you fucking idiot I swear to Airplane.

Truly what Louis is doing with Regina is such a gutting confirmation of Claudia “never been about me” like goddddddd god god she never had a choice she was a symbol she was something acted upon she was robbed of her life and self the moment they turned her and when she was finally breaking free she was killed along with the first person to ever see her for HER and Louis’ grief is so deep and acute but it’s about HIM he kills Claudia’s rapist and reads her diary to him as he does and it’s for HIM, he finds a girl that looks like her and pays her to pretend to be her because it was never about her here’s a convincing fill in, it’s baby Lulu all over again it was never about herrrrr Claudia has been dead since the start they killed the woman she could have been and then when she was finally flying free and making herself anew she was killed again and it was never about her I am going to throw up

beaten. swollen. bloody. you grip his wrist, skin to skin. you can only touch him when one of you is bleeding. you are dying. he is killing you. you forgive him. he is killing you. you love him. you can only love him when you are dying. barely holding on, you speak. he looks at you as if seeing you for the first time. your love will kill god. 

if you spoke to lestat or louis about your pain, they would say, "your pain? what about MY pain?" but if you spoke about your pain to armand he would say "let me lobotomize you and you will never feel pain again." he has a solution-based mindset and we could all learn from him.
