I Love Them Your Honor

😭 I love them your honor

"If there’s one thing Interview wants us to understand, it’s that even vampires are caught in cyclical loops. And when you’re immortal, those habits can be just as dangerous... and equally devastating. We got a taste of this with the introduction of the vampire Armand (Assad Zaman), the apparent love of Louis’ life. During the first half of Louis and Daniel’s interview sessions, he was masquerading as human; in reality, he’s 400 years Louis’ senior, and his influence on the latter smacks of Lestat’s own toxicity." "It’s here that the cast gets the meatiest material to sink their teeth into. Anderson remains a high point as Louis, juggling multiple versions of the character across a century and change. Season 2 only expands his role as an unreliable narrator: it’s not that he’s willfully withholding details about his life, but he’s earnestly working to recover memories he’s buried. It’d be enough to watch Anderson work through waves of fury, grief, and denial, with or without the added pressure of bloodlust and immortality." "Part of that has to do with the introduction of the Theatre des Vampires, the campy playhouse in which Claudia spends the bulk of her time. Though the character arguably gets more room to spread her wings in Season 2 (and Hayles takes every opportunity to imbue her with ferocity and compassion), a fulfilling arc still feels just out of reach… at least in the six episodes provided to critics for review."

I am still a Buddie shipper, but that does NOT mean I cannot be a BuckTommy enjoyer.

Y'all should take notes on that.

Just like Buck, you can like both.

(Part Three)

This is a thread connecting Anne Rice’s The Vampire Chronicles to Taylor Swift’s most recent album, The Tortured Poet’s Department. Part One will be linked at the bottom, if you want to start from the beginning.

5.) So Long, London

I think this song perfectly encapsulates the feeling of bidding adieu to someone, and someplace, you once loved. Sometimes the location where you fell in love, even more so than the person whom you fell in love with, can dredge up memories you’d rather forget.

Louis leaves New Orleans after his time with Lestat, losing a city he loves and a man he loves.

“I didn't opt in to be your odd man out”

“I founded the club she's heard great things about”

“Just how low did you think I’d go ‘fore I’d self-implode? ‘Fore I’d have to go be free”

“And I'm just getting color back into my face, I'm just mad as hell cause I loved this place”

6.) But Daddy I Love Him

Another song that could be interpreted in multiple ways. I could see myself screaming “But Daddy I Love Him” about Armand, Lestat, Marius, hell, even fucking Daniel. It seems Anne Rice has a penchant for writing morally gray characters that my father would not want me to bring home.

But I think I’m going to go ahead and assign this one to our resident protagonist, Louis Du Pointe Du Lac.

Louis, especially in the AMC tv show, is the character who has to face the most judgment and prejudice. He’s constantly having to deal with uppity racists and homophobes, and I think he deserves this song just so he can tell them all to FUCK OFF! LET HIM LIVE DAMMIT!

“Clutchin' their pearls, sighing, What a mess"

“I just learned these people try and save you ‘cause they hate you”

“Running with my dress unbuttoned, scrеamin', but, Daddy, I love him”

“I'm havin' his baby”

“No, I'm not, but you should see your faces”

“I'll tell you something right now”

“I'd rather burn my whole life down”

“Than listen to one more second of all this bitchin' and moanin”

“You ain't gotta pray for me”

“Me and my wild boy and all of this wild joy”
