look at how easily loustat slipped back into each other. the mere relief of knowing that the other was actually okay. that they survived the horrors. that they didn’t loose each other forever. that it’s not over for them yet.
the way lestat is an early riser and would peek into louis’ coffin when they weren’t sharing is the sweetest most precious thing ever. oh my loustat you are everything to me. #tvlspoilers
watch this clip and tell me this is the same lestat that conjures paul in his head to comfort and thank himself for “loving louis the way he need to be loved.” lestat shows more introspection, accountability and self-awareness in the trial than he does in the entire season of tvl
the logic of iwtv and tvl:
1) louis has to reckon with every wrong he has done and apologise to his abusers and suffer karmically for his wrongs
2) everyone else can abuse and torture louis and claudia and it gets retconned or louis apologises to them so it has no stakes
#tvlspoilers Armand gets comforting words, an apology and no consequences for his horrific brutalisation of Louis and murder of Claudia.
Lestat gets adoration from his fans, sympathy and understanding of his trauma and finally self-actualisation.
Louis gets insults and torture.
