What are you doing with someone like me?

So many interesting details, especially on Louis' bracelet, Lestat's ring, and Gabriella's style!

SO many interesting details, anon! I love that Lex is using silk so much to tie Lestat back to the 1700s, and weaving some of Gabi's masculinity through the cut of her coats is really interesting too (that line about seeing her through Lestat's eyes feels really pointed too, which has me 👀). I love that detail about Louis' kill bracelet, but also him being a billionaire (is that the first time we've had that officially confirmed? I think people suspected from Regina ranking him among the wealthiest people in the world from 3.04, but I don't know if it's ever actually been said), and the way he's trying to dress like a normal person in front of Regina.

I need you to incorporate it somehow in your work. NEED.

It definitely read to me at the very least as sexual coercion, anon, if not outright sexual assault, which speaks to him with the girl and the paper bag in 2.05. He gets off on abusing his power over others, and how that manifests as sexual degradation and exploitation is intrinsically a part of his character, given the girl was before that night in ‘73 (although it’s interesting to consider how that week in San Francisco might have compounded and further warped that part of his personality).
