SHARE if you would give him infinite attention and unlimited screen time and drink his gross smoothies. KEEP SCROLLING if you would ignore him

Congratulations on achieving a “Classic Larson”!

Daniel is, no doubt, EXTREMELY powerful and with a personality type that will probably make him a good vampire. Absolutely terrifying...and hot. God I hope he's still "sun challenged."

woke: assad wants dm to happen so much that he thought if he plays like it did and makes it believable enough writers could be manipulated into writing it

Assad is matching Sam Reid’s level of character obsession, and he’s the hero and advocate Armand needs.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

this is what is going on inside my head 24/7

#THIS is why I really feel like that scene was important for the wider television audience tbqh#like audiences aren’t stupid as a whole BUT as a member of the white audience like…we probably do inherently not feel as much empathy#toward characters of color like….not necessarily because we don’t care but because violence against people of color is soooooo normalized#and there is FOR SURE something to be said for so graphically brutalizing a black man in that way#and I’m not the right person to make further commentary toward that#but like…white audiences are going to find more fault with Louis and Claudia than Lestat#and giving him this TRULY disgusting and irredeemable moment shocks the people who aren’t as critical of him as they are of Louis and claudi#like it made EVERYONE uncomfortable and they ABSOLUTELY should have had a tw before the episode because it was so real (minus the….flying….)#but the most important thing is that it really put Lestat in the villain role where he DEFO is in iwtv#like he’s…not an antihero in Louis’s story whatsoever#he is A BAD BAD BAD GUY#and then there’s more nuance added to lestat’s story in later books (soooo much)#but he still did TERRIBLE things#and that’s not an excuse that immediately resolves him but it’s the reasoning which is what makes a REALLY COMPLEX AND FUN CHARACTER#I looooove Lestat as a character but I would never want to interact with him at fucking all#can you imagine how many eggshells you’d have to walk on around him it would be EXHAUSTING#but anyway that’s what I think is so fun about the vc books#you’re always in a moral dilemma trying to reconcile with loving and rooting for these absolutey nasty fucking creatures#god I wish I was gifted with the gift of words lmao but I have feelings I can’t articulate#anyway that scene was horrific but I think it was an important jolt for us white audience members specifically#which is gross in itself that we’d need that but like…….I really don’t think it’s wrong….:/#I’m sure there are ✨*feminists✨out there who hate Louis for being a brothel owner yet Stan Lestat#lmao at least until he abuses Antoinette#ANYWAY…..#interview with the vampire#racism tw

That may and probably will change in later seasons – similar to how it does in the books, but it was by no means the show "betraying canon" or "ruining Lestat's character". The violence has always been there, it's just that some fans chose to disregard it until it was shoved right in their faces.
