At a time when Netflix is getting roundly criticized for forcing its shows to treat the audience like we have all of two brain cells to rub together, The Vampire Lestat is out here volleying everything from 70s gay references to 1700s Dutch Republic references at the speed of light while saying, "You don't get it? Well, that's a fucking you problem."

dmers when a ship that’s been canon since 1988 is in fact still canon

I do have a fondness for how gothic and erotic lit had a certain barrier to entry. Like I do love more ppl getting into the vampire chronicles and I'll always be happy to have more Loustat fans but those books are weird and melancholic and erotic and philosophical and constantly testing boundaries and asking questions. And it feels like ppl are expecting or wanting "the vampire diaries but gay". The books have uncomfortable moments and the characters will do and say and believe things that make you double take but so much of the books are just "how moral can I be when nothing matters and I'm immortal?"

i love the writing and acting choices that went into that "i think". "our vampire bond, i think". meaning this is not what usually happens and it's confusing even me, armand, the 500 years old vampire who turned you. meaning i am not sure exactly how much of this is the bond and how much the love we share. meaning i am just as unsettled as you are by the magnitude of our connection. it is fucked, yes, that after all this time and all the pain i remain capable of feeling what i feel for you. it is fucked that it took this long for someone to feel it for me.
