love armand betraying the theatre for louis and then immediately betraying louis to the theatre and then following this up by betraying the theatre for louis one more time. truly betrayalmaxxing. clocking in his hours at the dissapointing people's faith factory

yes daniel craving and feeling partially empty without armand is buzzy but like..im thinking about armand’s ache for daniel. not only his fledgling, but his only fledgling. sure, he technically holds the power in that relationship but imagine the pull and the yearning from armand’s perspective, calling out to him in the only fucked up, unsettling way he knows how just to create some kind of connection to pacify that ache. he craves daniel even more but that desire is covered in several thick layers of shame and guilt and GOD THIS FOOD IS ABOUT TO BE SO FUCKING GOOD

iwtv continues to be so smart in its portrayal of memories and trauma, the way lestat’s memories of his family are so obnoxiously loud, everyone’s screaming all the time for no reason and everyone’s acting like caricatures, like an actual assault on the senses, as if lestat’s mind is filled with unbearable noise every time he thinks about them. lestat’s memories coming at him all fragmented and loud and violent, attacking him and beating him into submission as he desperately tries to escape them is such an interesting contrast to how louis would carefully weave a thread of his past pretending the glaring holes in it weren’t there
