You’re a star, Claudia
Jacob Anderson about Claudia and Madeleine.
there is only one person who can save louis, claudia and madeleine now…
as much as i want to know what claudia and madeleine said to each other in their last moments i'm really glad we don't get to know. it's not for us, not for louis or lestat or armand or daniel and certainly not for some fucking book. their last moments together belong to them forever.
“He was as much of a captive as we were.” Louis, baby, I really don’t think he was

congrats to rashid realrashid for surviving the season, btw. born to serve cunt, forced to serve lunch, actually serves the truth on a golden platter. and also probably served the loumand divorce papers.
Armand: "I had never made one. The idea repulsed m— repulses me."
Armand when Louis leaves him alone for two seconds with Daniel:
do you think lestat has spotify premium on his divorce ipad or do you think he makes himself sit through the adbreaks as a punishment
"samuel beckett was a vampire and is still alive as half of daft punk" is an idea of such intellect and culture you'd think it was from riverdale but it's actually from amc's interview with the vampire
I think armand turned him despite being “repulsed” by the idea of turning someone into a vampire because he rode that old man dick so hard daniel had a heart attack and it was the only way to save him
TBH
I find so funny when I'm scrolling on these hashtags and then find some post with a hashtag like "I don't endorse abuse" of smt like that bc you'd think, with a media like IWTV, that'd be a given
We obviously don't like these characters because they are sane babygirl
Okay, lemme be honest: I'd probably Joker myself up as well if Louis de Pont du Lac of all people called me as boring as a beige pillow
Armand wants Louis to be interested in him but every interesting thing he does also qualifies as torture so it has to be erased from Louis’ mind. And Louis might be kinda into that but Armand can’t risk him suddenly developing self respect and leaving him. So tragic
As I previously stated somewhere on this site, I would 100% go full-on Joaquin Phoenix's Joker if the love of my life called me as boring as a beige pillow
The thing about Armand to me is that he strips us of any preconceived or prejudiced notion of what it means to be a manipulator or a narcissist. Most people who'll emotionally abuse you in your life won't be this evil character who is out to get you, they'll be people who actually feel and experience the emotions and feelings they manipulate you with.
To them, the reality of those feelings is there, raw and feeling like an exposed wire. That's why it's so hard to get out of toxic and/or abusive relationships — because you learn the way your abuser see and experience the world and it makes sense to you, even if it doesn't on a rational level. You get it. You empathize with it. And it becomes so much harder to leave.
So yes, Armand is this abused, traumatized man who regrets things and is so desperate to be loved he'll do anything to have it. But he also will do anything to have it.
It's why forgiveness is earned, not deserved. If forgiveness was about deserving, the whole world would be made of saints.
Being an adult while watching iwtv means that you really can't pick a character to hate on because of nuance - and they're all equally horrible lovable hateable complex beings, can't even be mad at armand because he's not some evil mastermind manipulator, while at the same time he is, but he has the cadence of doing all of that while being a shivering, quivering scared chihuahua and that's what makes it worse because 'evil' is not some big tough infallible guy. It's a 17 year old guy with glowing orange eyes with enough anxieties in him to melt a planet and he's always plotting in such a loser yet scaryy way. You get me ?
This makes me feel kinda cruel, BUT...
I have kinda of a love/hate relationship with IWTV because at the same time I'm invested af in this story, I really think these guys have no business being this manipulable and/or pathetic ally in love at +100yo
And I get that's kinda cruel but honestly, are you even worthy immortality if you're gonna be manipulated by someone one third your age after living all this time? I'd kms from the embarrassment alone (and yes I'm throwing shade)
And this is kinda why Armand is my favorite vampire in the tv show, I guess?? No one be manipulating more than my cancelled wife and that's what a respectable 400yo vampire should strive to be tbh
YOU WANNA TELL THAT I'M WRONG?!?!
I need Daniel's professional life's hack
The only thing I needed to be successful in my life was Louis de Pointe Du Lac hypnotizing me to believe in myself yk...
