Mmm Yes Yes To All Of This - Tumblr Posts

I fucking love the new Armand & Daniel dynamic. It's hilarious how they both each keep flexing their power over their 'domain' in front of each other -- it's Armand's house, but it's Daniel's interview.

Armand can (and does) have control over sitting where he wants in the dining room and the orders for the staff, but Daniel has control over what makes it into the interview (and when Armand is allowed to contribute to it, even at the very end when Armand joins in).

Interestingly, Armand seems to want to flex similarly over his relationship with Louis...but it doesn't work.

Louis doesn't take a break when Armand says he should -- but he does when Daniel gently suggests it. And I think that's foreshadowing some cracks in the whole facade.

fascinating how armand's narration doesn't give us any insight into lestat's thoughts. he's like a closed book. yeah he just appeared behind me one night and begged me to teach him. yeah he said he loved me and left his other lover. yeah he abandoned everyone without comment. no illuminating conversations. no explanation behind any motivation whatsoever. no meaning. such a stark contrast to louis' tale about their relationship. louis had such a deep understanding of lestat's mind. always knew what mood he was in and why. always knew what he was thinking and reflected on it. it's almost like armand is not— [gets dragged away through the street]
