Some of the hot takes I'm reading where people are putting down Louis to build Lestat up are completely wild to me. Suggesting he clearly *doesn't love* Lestat enough or in the same vein that Lestat loves him is a reach. Using the he's a lot/it's not perfect scene as an example to portray that Louis was being spiteful and unappreciative of Lestat's love for him when he said this to Jonah. And like my own personal take is that first off he had every right to say that and no lies were told. Lestat is A Lot, he's a messy hypocritical bitch but he's also loving and protective of Louis.
Louis was just explaining how he feels to an old love and friend, he didn't deny having somebody he could've easily not mentioned Lestat at all but he did because he does love him and value their relationship. His voice literally broke when he asked Lestat 'Aren't I enough?' If he didn't care then he wouldn't have been so hurt lest not forget Lestat literally laughing directly in his face over it like die bitch
Another thing I noticed is that Louis doesn't say he's not perfect he says it's not perfect as in their situation and he's right. He's struggling with trying to come to terms with being a vampire, his humanity and decision to not drink blood, feeling like he's losing his family not to mention all the racism and pressure from his business. Throw in this curveball from Lestat but you know he agrees to it and Jonah finds him it's not like he went out to look for someone to retaliate against Antoinette.
But because of his jealousy after spying on Louis and Jonah, Lestat takes the it's not perfect and hears that as Louis saying he's not perfect which is understandable he's upset. Also another little moment is when he asks Louis if they can go out the next night because he's feeling vulnerable and he says no he's going to see Grace you see his face briefly fall and probably takes that as another hint that he's losing Louis.
Lestat is the one who offers up the open relationship and then immediately regrets it because of his own past trauma with his old loves and fear of abandonment. Throw in the lack of communication between them, there's already a small wedge over Louis not wanting to kill add it all up and ultimately we see it explode.
To place blame directly on one of them or to say Louis wasn't attentive enough to Lestat's feelings and Louis doesn't care or love him enough is just wrong.
* Just to add to this post - Sam and Jacob saying that Loustat don't like each other they're just very in love alongside Daniel's you're talking like you're in some fucked up gothic romance statement - rings so true this episode, THEY ARE.
They don't like each other's behaviour in this situation but it's because they BOTH love each other it hurts that much more. Reducing it to a competition negates their whole romance and is quite frankly boring, they're a toxic mess and going from episode to episode you might empathise with one more than the other but at the end of it all they're just two dumb idiot vampires in love yk.*

Addressing the toxic team black accusations against Tom Glynn-Carney.
First and foremost, he is not a rapist; his character, Aegon, the second Targaryen, is. Second of all, I hate how some of you pretend Viserys and Daemon weren't groomers. Nine times out of ten, you don't see sane people from Team Green making rape accusations against Paddy and Matt. Just please fucking stop it; it's like some of you really want to ruin this man's career. And you can say what you want, so please do comment in defense of the toxic actions being taken because I want all the smoke. I was also told by my aunt that he was a rapist, but I was quick to shut that shit down from the door. It goes to show how quickly false information is spread and how much it could really impact somebody's life. It's disgusting and makes me sick that some of you team black fans have so much hatred for his character that some of you are willing to corrupt this man's life. I find it hilarious that some of you have the sheer audacity to be that fucking bold behind a computer screen or a screen of whatever mobile device is in your possession, but would some of you ever make a statement like that in front of his face? No, most of you wouldn't even dare to do so because he is able to sue for defamation in court by law. So, please don't ditch what you can take because you will get verbally bodied by me morally, and that's not a will; that's a promise.
Please Reblog.

I keep starting and abandoning posts that go into my drafts, as I try to stay tasteful about how fucking revolted this part makes me. Like, I'm legitimately unsure if the very relevant trauma I have is making me see things that aren't here
But first we see that Star Flower is trying to ingratiate herself to the group, just after she reappears from chapter 5. Chapter 5 is about how Clear Sky is still abusive towards his son, and she comes in after stroking his ego, stressing how alone she is, and appealing to how she'll be loyal unlike his child. (She glances over at Thunder, directly implying this.)
Now in Chapter 9, she's babysitting and trying to care for Milkweed's kits (in spite of discomfort from Milkweed), taking a wet sleeping space away from the others, and pulling more than her own weight "without complaint." Putting herself through harsh sitations to prove her worth.
All while trying to appear extra attractive to Thunder, and later Clear Sky. Basically every man in power who can "protect her"
Like, am I going fucking crazy? With how we later find out that Star Flower was "promised as a mate" to One Eye's subordinate Slash, is... is that hypersexualization? One of the extremely stigmatized symptoms of sexual abuse?
She goes to find Clear Sky alone to throw herself at his paws, and he's very quickly attracted to how she promises to perfectly obey him, have no needs of her own, and finally be the perfect servant that he desires
"I don't deserve your trust because I am dirt. I understand you because I also regret something. I'd die for you. I'll never betray you unlike those who have."
This isn't manipulation. She means this. The story is playing their romance sincerely. She's comparing "betraying" Thunder by telling her own father about an assassination ambush to Clear Sky's history of child abuse, physical assault, and murder
She believes she's on the same level as this; a monster who murdered a childhood friend in a fit of entitled rage. She was a victim of One Eye who really believes that the way her father used her means she "understands" this monster, deserves this treatment.
And Clear Sky LIKES that.
He likes that she will have COMPLETE FAITH in him. That she will follow him WITHOUT QUESTION. That she will OBEY his orders. That's fucking verbatim, that's THE TEXT!!!
WHILE HE'S STILL CRYING ABOUT "ive tried to atone every day" FOLLOWING THE LAST TWO BOOKS WHERE THE ONLY SHITTY THING HE DOESN'T DO IS MURDER INNOCENT WOMEN
Am I insane?? Am I wrong??? Am I missing something here???? Why the fuck is the fandom takeaway "haha sexy girl steals his dad." Did I read the same book

the last unicorn post from earlier has me thinking about the master. that yana is still in there, you know? is still someone he was, if even for a brief flash across the life of a time lord. there’s no way to unlive that life. there are ways to twist it later, sure, to make utopia into hell on earth. but the life was lived. in much the same way that the doctor can remember, can feel, the love he held onto as john smith even as that life is ripped out of his hands. the doctor choose denial and then grief and then to shutter it all away. and so john smith died, and so professor yana died, and the doctor and the master live on. the doctor has done this before, and he lives in orbit around humanity, trying to keep the best parts of them and hold them deep enough to take root (which he can pretend he gets to choose, as a time lord. as a human, it all floods in and can’t be dug back out.) but what about the master, right?
to borrow a turn of phrase: i think there are two time lords left in the universe, and they both learned how to regret.

Ok while I do agree what caine did is messed up, I don't see anyone coming to his defense with this point, and I feel like it should be considered more
Tadc spoilers ahead for episode 2 if you don't have the tags filtered:
Caine didn't have any way to know gumigoo was centient, I know it was easy to forget that when we as the audience could clearly see it, I did too for a moment but, when you think about it, he didn't see gumigoo become self aware like we did. Like he's said he only has eyes on the circus, and while I don't 100% trust every word he says, the fact he didn't just close the portal the moment gumigoo approached, or hell intervene the moment pomni mentioned bringing him back, Instead just seeming surprised when he noticed gumigoo there, it shows to me that he really doesn't see what happens there, so he most likely didn't know. from his perspective pomni just got way too attached to a character he created, he had no way to know why she did or that he was more then what he made him now

you know if we do accept the last epilogue-esque sequence as a sort of dream/wish of ted's and therefore not necessarily canon, very funny if we then simply go "yeah, trent's book is called 'the lasso way' actually. he didn't change that. nope."

I'm just imagining how Fuuta and Mikoto must have bonded early on over their feeling of "I didn't do anything, I have no clue why I'm here, it's a mistake." Fuuta assumes Mikoto is just like him, and has some kind of death in proximity to him though never actually acting to physically harm anyone. Mikoto still assumes everyone's in on some big prank. It isn't until much later in the trial that Fuuta realizes "oh shit, he really has done nothing -- he is innocent after all" and Mikoto realizes "oh shit, this place is real and he actually did hurt someone." There's a weird rift between the two for a while, but then they'd learn some new things about Mikoto, they'd both get voted guilty, both get attacked, all resulting in a tentative closeness again.
In his drama Kazui seemed pretty accepting of his responsibility in the death despite not being directly involved, however, it's also fun to think he was pulled into their little I-didn't-do-anything club from their end. There would be some awkward tension between them all when the one guy who was willing to admit his guilt was the only one voted innocent.

You are a seventeen year old lesbian. You ran away from home and are lying about every aspect of yourself in order to work your way up the ranks of the war crime factory, and it’s working— you got promoted to work directly under the citystate governor as personal security for him and his family. And now you have a crush on his wife. (would that be fucked up or what?)
