Kevin let the silence settle between them for a minute, then dug his nails in so hard his knuckles went white. "I can still hear him. Can you?”

Claudia is going to be the biggest mistake Lestat has ever made in his entire life...the fact that she died. The death of Claudia is going to be the thing that haunts him forever…the fact that he saw her look at him with a pure connection at the end[.] I think he’ll never get that image out of his head, and I think what it does is it also sets us up for a relationship with a haunting of Claudia and Lestat that is quite exciting…because Lestat has not gotten any closure there, and he has a lot to atone for. He has done some really terrible things, and I think a wonderful motivation for a character going forward is shame.
