Them skipping over lestat being illiterate lowkey pissed me off like that was a big part of his resentment of Gabrielle was the fact she was learned with her head always in a book but never taught him to read
kinda pissed the show changed this, because this used to something why claudia always wins over lestat and why he's proud of her: she kills her father when he couldn't
ill never stop saying Louis (and most vampires) cannot meaningfully consent to vampirism and/or are never laid out what exactly they are losing to make an educated decision on eternity
