#(and lestat is just rocking a cuban heel to feel superior)

Considering lestat “im 6 feet tall which isn’t bad now” de lioncourt wrote queen of the damned and calls daniel tall, do you think that daniel is over 6 foot?

Ha! Well that would hinge on Lestat being secure enough to admit another hot blond guy is taller than him, and like really, is he secure enough? Or is he just saying Daniel is the same size?

I've always pictured them both as a solid 6'0. Maybe Daniel is actually 6'1 or 6'2 but after so many years of running with 5'6 Armand he's got a permanent slouch in my mind (look it's just easier to look your boyfriend in the eye or kiss him if you're already slumped and meeting him halfway). And being an 18th century man Lestat would gravitate towards shoes with a heel so standing next to each other they either even out or (depending on the shoe of the day) Lestat seems slightly taller.

(though as a lestat/daniel fucker I have some personal feelings on having Daniel be taller if he straightens up and stands right, and Lestat getting to feel off kilter and be the shorter one for once. but that's neither here nor there I suppose)

tl;dr regardless of exactly how far over six feet any of them are, if we look at armand's love life with men then he's a little shit with "under 6'0 need not apply" on his grindr bio and i love that for him ♥

#the real question is how tall is marius exactly #and is daniel as tall as him #because let's be real that roman needs ONE vampire in town who can look him in the eye and tell him to chill out #(and look i know that armand describes louis as slightly less tall than lestat) #(but if lestat likes a heel and he never takes off his shoes) #(like he seems to imply when whining about his tiny socked feet he rarely sees) #(then louis is a solid 6'0 himself) #(and lestat is just rocking a cuban heel to feel superior) #vc headcanons #apoptoses answers
