the tongue poke is so playful and tender. it’s a performance but also intimate for his lovers ghost, like that’s a little glimpse of the kid in lestat that only nicki knew omg it’s getting me so emotional
louis is literally...a parent. an invasive, thinking his child is an extension of him, parent. his violations of claudia's most secret thoughts, to him is not a violation at all, but something he feels he has an entitlement to, bc he is her parent. he's absolutely in the wrong—
“bruce’s death was unsatisfactory and they violated claudia with the scene” the scene is not about bruce – and barely even about claudia –, it’s about louis taking revenge thinking that it’ll fill the claudia-shaped hole in his soul, yet once he’s done he feels absolutely hollow.
gabriella fucking jarda & purposely being loud is just another way of violating lestat after he’s expressed his desire to not be physical w her, and there’s an added layer when you consider her doing so with his doppelgänger & the parallel with the corpses and magnus #tvlspoilers
