An Underexplored Devil's Minion Concept Is If 70's Devil's Minion Did Happen And Armand Did Delete Daniel's

an underexplored devil's minion concept is if 70's devil's minion did happen and armand did delete daniel's memories but he's really wiped them. they're gone. he doesn't have them, he can't give them back to him. daniel can't remember.

endless opportunities.

armand wanting desperately to make daniel remember this precious time they spent together but having to suffer the consequences of his own actions.

daniel feeling like armand is chasing after some version of him that he doesn't remember being. feeling like he came back wrong.

armand trying to give daniel something of that time back through his own memories but the memories being all wrong and altered and an unreliable account of what happened that contradicts itself. a story of two people shared among those two people but with only one perspective of it, completely unbalanced and devoid of their true emotional value, only making that time more confused for daniel.

daniel being all too aware of a gap in his mind where something good and important used to be but he can never truly know what.

armand feeling that important treasured moments between them are barely even real anymore because the understanding and trust they created among them functionally never happened. but he will know. he will always know.

the inherit imbalance of beginning a relationship from two completely different points. the respective feelings of

"i love you but there is this suffocating feeling of loss in me every time i look at you"

and

"i can never be enough for you because there is someone you look for in me that i can never be."

Post-season 2, I don't think Louis is running back to what he thinks is going to be a nightmare, an abuser, a lunatic—becase Louis is also a lunatic—and I don't think The Drop is being swept under the rug. I think Louis is choosing to leave it lie. And I don't even think it has anything to do with the apology at the trial, even though it was definitely needed. I think it only has a little bit to do with Lestat saving Louis.

I think, in Louis' mind, they're EVEN.

Not that it didn't happen, or that it was forgivable, or that he is willing to look past it. No, Louis is vindictive. Louis keeps track. Louis is organized. Louis knows the cards in his hand.

Lestat nearly killed Louis. Louis nearly killed Lestat.

Louis saved Lestat. Lestat saved Louis.

I think, that without the blame for the trial, Louis' scales are balanced. The slate is clean. They're even. And maybe that's ruthless or narrow minded, but they are Monsters. This show is about the humanity in monstrosity. And I think that honestly the audience is meant to see them as "even" too, that way they can start at the beginning again—be friends, laugh together, cry together, fall in love again.
