#i think they know that...which is why they're weaving in devils minion into their dynamic so early on

[captain-noir]

curious about how they're going to approach the loumand dynamic because i think the explicitiness of show loustat kind of shortchanges whatever they had in the books. louis’ naivety in love and vampirism was a major factor in their courtship - he found a worthy mentor and potential companion in armand. but show louis has already had his grand love affair (that rolin insists is the fulcrum of the show) and lestat has been exceedingly forthcoming about his past and about their nature as vampires. i wonder what will entice this louis enough to be willing to consider abandoning claudia for her murderer...

#yaz has thoughts #interview with the vampire #just reread the part in the tower when louis asks armand how vampires meet their end and just recalled show louis #saying lestat informed him of all the methods and it kinda PINGED in my head #you can buy book louis fascination with armand when he had zero answers and thought of lestat as nothing more than an annoying #roomate who turned him for his money and estate #but show lestat is older/not dependant on louis/actually married to him/ willing to answer most of his questions #i suspect the dynamic will be changed somewhat #i mean it has already considering the 70s flashback and whatevers happening in dubai #it needs to be distinct and exciting - otherwise its just loustat 2.0. watching louis fall in love with another older obsessive vampire who #wants him to himself and views his daughter as a rival would be boring #we had that #i think they know that...which is why they're weaving in devils minion into their dynamic so early on #i think they recognize it needs another dimension #while also setting up another major relationship
