more age gap Loustat hcs 🥺 I love ur mind palace
Louis can’t make a joke about Lestat being a perverted old man or even reference the age gap bc it will either set Lestat off on a rant or Lestat will get incredibly turned on… and Louis never knows which one he will get.
Louis calls Lestat ‘my old man’ behind his back, and Lestat finds out that night Claudia was made.
Louis friends stage an intervention dinner when Louis quits his job after the pregnancy news, and he’s there the whole time defending Lestat and how he’s not being turned into a housewife… it’s like talking to a wall. As Claudia gets older than Louis was when he got pregnant and married, when he sees the experiences she gets to have that he missed out on… he will think back on the intervention many times.
Lestat does not view the age gap as problematic or weird, because its ~Louis~ and he’s different and mature for his age so they’re on the same level 🥰 and Lestat’s true love 🥰 but will his age and wisdom as an argument against Louis every time to win.
People think Louis is Lestat’s trophy wife. Lestat thinks it’s a compliment.
Florence du lac doesn’t mind the age gap at all. Lestat having a lot of money helps. Paul however… has a lot to say.
Lestat loves to talk about ‘back in his days’ and things he misses, that Louis never lived through, bc he hopes that Louis thinks he’s cool and interesting….
Louis loves to hear small everyday day information of how life was before back in the day and how accurate history was recounted by Lestat.
As Claudia gets older and older, she questions Lestat and his interest in his making humans Louis his ‘young wife’ more and more. Lestat would have been so smug throwing that back in her face if she introduced him to Madeleine
Since Lestat physically hasn’t aged Louis sometimes forget their age gap, and forgets how old Lestat is, and just assumed Lestat gets pop culture references of his time. Lestat doesn’t.
