It’s not horrible and quiet impressive for a one day. My brains are fried and I probably won’t make it to second stage.

But I’m finally free and I’m going to write so many IWTV angst… and probably devil’s minion mpreg. I’m not sure. But I want to

I’m invincible.

Edit: I love every character in this tv show don’t worry I’m not hating on my boy Daniel

It’s interesting how after becoming a vampire Danny Molloy also forgot what art is.

This scene for me was so uncomfortable. Not only because Lestat went vulnerable, but also… this fucking screen. Daniel also had screen (laptop) as border between him and Louis until season 2, when they finally talked face to face. Now he’s hiding behind the screen again. Creating such a distance with Lestat, while constantly trying to get under his skin.

Probably because in some level, he’s afraid of him. He wants juicy gossip, but not ready to get his eyes clawed out. Forgetting that Les is not that type of guy.

He was a very talented writer as a human, but as a vampire-director he’s so biased, he’s own craft gets destroyed by this.

When he interviewed Louis he paid attention to social inequality, racism, even pointed out to Louis that his dynamic with Lestat was problematic in a way, that he still kind of served under white man. Never said out loud but joked about it.

They talked about Second World War, about horror and how it affected people. How it affected vampires too.

Daniel was invested as a human. But with Lestat?

Molloy still got his pockets full of snarky remarks, but it’s all shallow now. He never made fun of Lestat for being a bourgeoisie, he never questioned him about his past while blonde is someone who saw revolution.

He started Lestat’s story by most stupid comment “did you stutter as a child”. He doesn’t view Lioncourt as separate character, he’s continuation of Louis story. While “Failures” on the other hand shows is the “correct way”.

Daniel no longer interested in human history or story in general. He wants to make something shocking without understanding what people will find shocking.

If we focus on what Molloy actually got on camera - bullshit material. It’s nowhere as provocative and scary as IWTV. Lestat said absolutely nothing new, just proved that IWTV was true. But as separate art form - it’s horrendously bad.

Molloy no longer understand what makes documentary a good documentary. He wants shock value, he’s greedy to find answers through Lestat and his past, because Armand temporarily dumped him. Even street interviews are nothing. It’s just another messy doc about garage band, made by a friend of narcissistic front man.

Lestat spend centuries trying to learn again what music was and what made it alive. Not perfect. Alive. Louis absolutely failed as photographer. And now Daniel completely lost touch with art of writing. The only vampire (that we see often) who was and is successful with arts - is Armand. Because his art is performance.

The most disappointing thing was seeing Daniel with camera, interviewing people on the streets. That usually not what director does. They have editors who can jump on filming additional material. The fact that Daniel holds camera himself feels like a pure despair to fix things until it’s too late.

And what he does? Asks around Jarda’s fans. It’s a nothing material, it’s says nothing about who Jarda was, those people only knew him as stunt man.

And the thing is - Lestat was all in for conversation. That what he likes, he didn’t even jumped Molloy for writing a book. Yes he wasn’t easy on Danny either, but he was right about everything. Molloy is traumatised, Molloy indeed was just a pawn in Armands hands. And the mental monologue about death of his first fledgling? THAT WAS A LESSON TO DANNIEL. Lestat was still kind enough to try to help Molloy accept new reality of things, but we all know how prideful this man is.

It makes me so sad just watching Daniel fail again and again, not only because he’s facing a vampire who’s not ashamed of his power, but also because Molloy loosing himself.

And then there’s Lestat, looking at Daniel like that, after he didn’t even questioned who this platinum matron named Sophia was

I feel like deep inside Lestat is very disappointed with how dumb and cocksure Molloy is

Armand: Hmmmm…

Armand: *offs an innocent person again*

I mean “yeaaa Regina”, but also “God woman please put flamethrower down”

I am quite literally scared of her

He’s literally an outcast whose only connection to the world is his career. “Pulitzer” that he shoves into everyone’s throat is a scream “look people find me valuable”.

He lives through others stories because his never actually happen.

Damn him and Armand are such lonely apples. I can finally see why Arun was like “Oh shi I want this cookie”

The absolute possessed look he gave Lestat (while monologue about traumatic pass of his first love). The only time he feels alive is when “telenovela” is happening.

I WANT TO SEE MY QUEEN’S DRIP

PLEASe

PLEASE

I KNOW THEY COOKED SOMETHING GOOD, JUST GIVE US A SNEAK PEAK OR SMTh

I noticed this in episode one and I’m really disappointed with Daniel (also absolutely loving it). While he had a past with Louis, he could easily press his weak points and Louis would answer because a) feels guilty because he almost killed Molloy in past; b) sort of missing Lestat’s and this is his way of getting in touch with memories.

But he works with Lestat for the first time. Also Luis is very patient because he’s the only one constantly in touch with humans. He’s a capitalist after all. Armand on the other hand played 3d chess this whole time and lied constantly.

The only reason why he could track Armand’s lies is because of Talamaska (they always keep info on everything) and his editor lol.

And then he meets Lestat and starts attacking him with personal questions. Like about stuttering. Even so Danny can see the truth, Lestat would never say it out loud, he would just masterfully deflect.

AND MOLLOY DOSENT CHANGE A BIT. He keeps attacking the man who’s an embodiment of “haha funny question, anyway your mom”.

Yes Lestat is emotional, hysterical individual, but it’s all a very thick facade. We saw him alone multiple times. He’s not loud, otherwise. Only in his loneliness he shows his true face - a man who was through a lot, so much, that he has to keep show even for people he loves.

Like when he talks to Gabriel. Dying a second ago and flowery words the moment someone is watching. He puts his guard down a few times, while discussing Claudia’s death in season one. And when talking on the FT with Louis. Right until he found “Interview with a vampire”.

Also I absolutely love how Lestat straight up using “unreliable narrator” against Daniel every time he can. Because Daniel can’t say shit on that one, he was birthed by Arun the Manipulator himself.

I think it’s impossible to interview Lestat unless he would want to tell you something personal. All three episodes he spends with Molloy he shows only one specific side. He doesn’t let Danny to learn more then he allows.

I still can’t understand why Molloy can’t grasp the easiest lesson Lestat’s teaching him. Vampires always lie. It’s basis of their existence. That’s how they get blood, that’s how they hide, that’s how they survive.
