Yes, but that's gonna make it all the more devastating! 😖💔

He's about to be ripped away from this —

Yes. I love that about Louis.

I love that he's selfish and doesn't give a fuck about anyone but Lestat. And yes, I want to see more of it moving forward, because it's a huge key to Louis' character that's been, up to this point, hidden by the narrative.

after the séance, do you think that Louis finally realized how Claudia

set out to break Louis and Lestat’s marriage.

I mean, yes?

That wasn't exactly the heart of the issue though, because she didn't break their marriage, and that paid into a layer of her rage at them during the seance. No matter what she did, she was never going to break them apart (not really) and while she's in hell suffering for eternity as a result of their love for each other, they're *back together* (they were never apart) and have a future of love and happiness together. Meanwhile, she does not. Again, as a result of their love for each other.

It was very very bitter.

We know that drinking blood from each other is how vampires show intimacy.

But....how does that work for the one whose blood is being drank from 🤔

It's the same. It's sexually intimate.

Don't forget Lestat's reaction —

Is this what you're looking for? 😅

Although I do think he cares about his band and would not want them hurt

I've been traveling today for almost four hours, and I always put my music on shuffle, but I keep coming back to this one. I've listened to it maybe nine times already today, and I'm still not tired of it.

And those last 40 seconds are still pure crack. Utter serotonin. Some of the greatest 40 seconds I've ever heard in my life.

Seriously. WHY?! IS?! IT?! SO?! GOOD?! 😭🙌🏽💗

Sometimes I rewatch Episode 5 just for him.

Because I love him and miss him. ♥️

Because of the power and the leverage that comes with owning it.

Other vampires want Lestat's blood because it's a direct line to Akasha. It's a very sought-after prize of strength and power in the vampire world.

Meanwhile, Louis has access to it anytime he wants. *ahem*

I thought that was very apparent when he was recording the fact that he wanted to get Gabrielle situated And grant one last request for her, and also get closure for Claudia for Louis during Season 6. It was obvious he intended to get out of there

He wasn't suicidal at that point. He wanted Gabriella to fuck off because he had Louis back in his life.

He wanted the closure for Louis because he loves Louis and doesn't want him suffering.

I’m also very curious about the blood in that auctioned box. To me, it was one more proof it was meant for Louis, considering his love for it. At the end of the day, I think it is the blood Armand and Louis are after, not so much the records…what’s your theory on this? Thanks!

I don't think Lestat solely arranged the auction. I believe Raglan influenced him to do so (he's calling Raglan a friend at the time of the recordings), and I think the blood being sold is the trap arranged by Louis and Lestat to lure Raglan out so they can get Lestat's body back.

And like I said here, Louis is the only being he cares about. He wants his story told, yes, but the recordings being for Louis is the heart. If he's self-isolating because he blames himself for hurting Louis, he wouldn't deliver them directly to Louis, because he'd think that Louis hates him now.
