Lestat, promising that he’ll never talk about Marius, his life, and his thousands of years worth of secrets. As written in the book in which Lestat talked, at length, about Marius, his life, and his thousands of years worth of secrets.
Marius: Listen, Lestat, you need some guidance on vampire stuff Marius: First of all, don’t make kids into vampires Marius: Even if your boyfriend is leaving you and you want to babytrap him Lestat: OK got it Marius: Also, don’t make vampires from people if you don’t love them already Marius: Even if, again, your boyfriend is leaving and you would like to use a small child to trap him Lestat: Of course Marius: Thirdly, don’t tell anyone about the legend of Those Who Must Be Kept Marius: Even if your ex-boyfriend has released a bestselling book where he calls you boring and you want to outdo him Lestat: Naturally Marius: And last of all, do not ever visit Those Who Must Be Kept without me accompanying you Marius: Even if you want to play a sick violin solo Lestat: I am definitely not going to do that the exact second you leave this room
i genuinely need money for painkillers, food and on a way lesser note electrolytes because i think the heat is exacerbating the pain. ive been inside all day throwing up and laying in fetal position in the dark, but i have high hopes for feeling even a little bit better than this. doesnt have to be 90% but even 7% better is better than nothing. i made a post about this earlier but i didn’t get any donations so im asking with a renewed sense of urgency for you guys to pls donate if u can <3 or share if you cant. anything helps bc the pain is getting worse not better, and i have a lot to do tomorrow so i’d like to hopefully feel some relief tonight. <3
the way that in episodes 5 6 and 7 of amc’s interview with the vampire the relationship between louis lestat and claudia is specifically framed and stated like in like a million creative ways maker murderer lover could the children kill the father i put you on this earth I am your maker we’re his slaves it’s an honor just to sleep in masters house and in a gifset of lestat saying “clean up the mess” to his Black family he is literally at this point holding hostage. and actually in fact episodes 1 2 3 4 and the books the show is based on also support and build up to all of this. and the dozens of people on this stupid website were like that’s so girl mom of him and if you said otherwise you got called a gender essentialist bc girls can be evil too or something and then constantly there are posts like “all things can be true at once 🥺🥺🥺 sure louis gets compared to women textually and subtextually five times an episode and lestat is a wifebeater and is also abusive to his mistress and yes he has a mistress but lestat has long hair. sure lestat hunts claudia down in a scene that contains direct reference to slavecatchers of not even a century earlier but he has trauma and she beats him at chess #equality” like imagine constructing a whole argument about how jane eyre and mr rochester are essentially interchangeable in terms of instutituional power “Tony soprano had a bad childhood soooo” its literally nonsensical. can we have some fucking rigor and just common sense about a well written and deliberately constructed piece of media
