recency bias but, probably this one

Lestat could have said, "Put your coffin on a boat. Go to Paris. There's a beautiful coven there, I know cos I fucking founded it." But he said the vampires out there are vicious. And then I met the mοthеrfսckеr, and, yeah, Lestat was right. It was better when he broke my bones, crammed me under the floorboards. I fought him, kicked him, clawed him, bit him. That was fine. It was when he had me pinned, and he'd tell me he loved me. Before, during, and after. Before, during, after. That fսckеd me up. One day he said, "Had enough of your gloomy face." Drove off on a motorbike. Thought I might as well go home, get Louis, head to Europe.

like it is supposed to feel jarring and insane. it is supposed to feel like lestat has been violently submerged in modern young people trends and culture and is now repeating all the new words he learned like a beautiful fresh baby. but because the book is from 1985, all I think is oh interesting huh I didn’t know that slang term even originated in the 80s how vintage how retro how lestat wow he’s so embarrassing aw aw so cute.

"During their first scene together this season, Lestat and Louis seem to have found an equilibrium. It’s probably sometime around 2022 or 2023, not long after their reunion in the season 2 finale. Lestat is noodling away on the piano in a beautifully accessorized Montreal apartment, while Louis provides commentary via videochat, proclaiming Lestat's new music to be (underwhelmingly) “nice.” Lestat asks him to visit, but Louis maintains his boundaries. In the background hangs a copy of Magritte’s painting The Lovers, depicting two people kissing with shroud-like fabric covering their heads, separating them from true connection. " - The Vampire Lestat episode 1 recap at Fansplaining.

Thank you so much—that’s really kind of you to say. I was so excited to be paired with @tumblerislovetumblerislife for this project and as we worked together with my initial concept, it was clear that Alex was the perfect writer for the story. I cannot wait for people to be able to read more each Saturday.

Old man 1: Do you really think Amy is manipulative?

Me: (Oh this sounds juicy. Who is Amy. What did Amy do.)

Old man 2: I don't know. I think Laurie is a liar though.

Me: (The plot thickens, keep talking boys)

Old man 1: I don't think Amy should have burned Jo's papers, but I don't blame her for marrying Laurie. I don't think she's a puppetmaster. Jo said no. How is Laurie a liar?
