How am I supposed to cope with any of this when the Metal Gear Solid alert noise goes off every five seconds like can they NOT.

Not just Mr. Pitt - Mr. Thomas Pitt! Va te faire foutre! - Go fuck yourself!

Anne

yes! Your read on lestat and Gabriella is on point. Lestat is trying to justify it, jumping from excuse to excuse until hes like "yeah whatever we're vampires" but i think its clear he does not believe that, like you said one indicator is him not telling Louis and also the pact of not doing it comes from him, he gets uncomfortable and ashamed when she brings it up, he knows its wrong but accepting that would open up the can of worms of the obvious which is he is a victim, he was groomed.

Hi! I think you might be misremembering about Claudia, she was kidnapped and sexually assaulted by Bruce. She talked about it in season 2. In season one Louie had ripped up the pages of her describing (which is why the scene cuts out there) it but it did happen. Also I don't think Daniel was implying he wrote the train scene, the one we saw in season 1 was taken from Claudia's diaries. I think the diaries are really important because Claudia isn't alive to speak for herself anymore so just wanted to point this out

That and Kill Bill sirens. I'm becoming increasingly tense per episode and I feel like I'm about to see, and am already seeing, sides to Lestat that not only explain why he's the way he is but that he's also due a heck of a lot more sympathy than he's been given so far. Also, his mother is um... I don't like her anywhere near him, but we can't protect him when he's so desperate for love that nkbffhihirbgibskfbuids!!! GAH. Oh - did anyone catch the David Talbot reference?

The song in French is a Baudelaire poem set to music - The fountain of blood - https://fleursdumal.org/poem/183 - have a look at the translation, the lyrics... fit.

some book readers were surprised by how short the flashbacks were, but i think it makes sense that he’d gloss over this. i mean famously book lestat “was a person who preferred not to think or talk about his motives or beliefs, even to himself.” anyway, ooh pointing a gun to his brother’s breast, very S1 louis of him i see why it got his attention in nola. and right after this, too: “you will marry your worth, and have children who will shame you the way you have shamed me.” right. right. from the divorce scene, “va te faire foutre” means go fuck yourself lol. and as to who you should send the fruit basket to, it’s rolin jones actually! sam wasn’t convinced but rolin insisted bc he loved the scene and he was Correct, it is fantastic. ough, louis opening the book on "Oh my dear Claudia why" during the concert….. but lmfaoo he made Gabriella stand in the pit and gave the VIP balcony seat to louis. of course. "No. Sounds weird." okay man, your heartbeat was synchronised to lestat's and then you vividly hallucinated him for decades, i don't think you get to pass judgement on daniel's gay yearning. i’m soo happy we got this little louis monologue i missed jacob so much. he’s really just outstanding. i’m glad he gets to be the emotional anchor that balances lestat’s manic storytelling. the last piano song is baudelaire's la fontaine de sang (the fountain of blood, very vampiric) set to music (and it’s the song he was working on in ep 1!). and no there were no subs. i love flowers of evil but it still took me a minute to understand what was being said lol. i'll give you a link to a translation on discord if you want (edit: someone posted one in a comment!), but essentially it’s about feeling like an open wound from which blood flows like a fountain until it floods the entire world and slakes the thirst of every creature. #lovethatforhim also a note on “being emasculated for his interest in the theatre,” yes, but 18th century theatre was also very tied to sex work. being an actor (or dancer) was very much like being a courtesan.

The train story was taken from Claudia's diary. My headcanon is that she wrote her experience. Given the power difference and their history (and Claudia's history with Bruce), I could see that Lestat's attempt to frighten her and bring her back would come off as much more terrifying on her end than how he perceived his own actions.

nina host

Love love loved your reaction. Just one thing, I don't think Claudia lied about the assault. The murky veracity business is surrounding the train scene, not the assault. The pocket thing is an expression Lestat used to imply the assaut if I'm not mistaken. She even talked about it during the second season where she told Louis about being kept under the floorboards. Also, your reaction to the divorce mediation filled me with joy, I just love them so much

LukeLemon

Awesome reaction, as always!

Fqonly

They've set up this awful dynamic between Lestat and Gabriella so well. He's trying to justify it but it's so obvious he knows it's wrong and doesn't want it! Also, I think the voiceover when Louis and Daniel are speaking telepathically at the concert has Louis saying "I'm still pissed.", not Daniel.

Nicole Mazza

Was soooo excited to see fellow YouTube reactor Claroos (for the Nerdy Nightly channel) as the hot girl doing a lap dance for Lestat at the club and who got to kiss Gabriella. Watching the reaction of the episode with her and her husband is so much fun! <3

Nicole Mazza

I know that David is a divisive character, but I legit audibly gasped at the Agent Talbot line -- he's one of my fave characters! (My hope is that Louis specifies 'if you count Agent Talbot' and so I'm learning hard on the IF YOU COUNT part, meaning he might not be dead-dead, he might just have gotten turned into a vampire in a different way than the books)

Nicole Mazza

That was a big hint for me, Claudia talked about Bruce 'keeping her under the floorboards' (for a week, iirc) and then Rus in ep 1 talked about their vampire farm outside of Detroit also 'under the floorboards'. That's just very specific wording. (And I can't fucking wait for Louis to get revenge on Bruce). Now, I'm just curious about Killer/Bruce and his maybe-connection to Baby Jenks.

iamafanfictionfreak

I think they've deliberately killed him off to make room for Louie. I have no strong feelings about the character myself, but I do feel for you there. Anne Rice used Louie as a conduit for her grief. It made sense that she couldn't return to his character however much she wanted to. Thus, Talbot was born. Louie effectively replaces him in certain books and events upcoming which I'm quite partial to, won't lie. I do believe they've killed him off, at least I'm basing this on certain things said in interviews etc. I could be wrong but...

Nicole Mazza

Oh, Bruce DEFINITELY kidnapped and assaulted Claudia. It's from her diaries. The thing Lestat is saying 'never fucking happened' was the scene on the train when she was trying to leave on her own for Europe and Lestat forced her back for Louis' mental health.

Lucian

Hello :] You're mistaken about Claudia, Bruce unfortunately did sexually assault her. I think you might be remembering a line Lestat had in the train scene about him "breaking her leg and defiling her pocket" and misinterpreting that as being about him robbing her, but I don't think the latter half of that line is literal, if you catch my drift. Regardless of the train scene's authenticity, Claudia WAS sexually abused by Bruce, we just don't see it because Louis tore out the pages and refuses to elaborate when Daniel asks. (I hope this comment doesn't come off as rude - I'm not great with tone even when I'm not medicated to all hell, lol. It's intended as just a gentle reminder!)

Don’tDrinkTheLuminol

Still watching your reaction, but I had to chime in when you pause to take everything in before we flashback to France. My brain has never required me to pause and process any show as much as this, and we’re only two episodes in. I genuinely appreciate that you take a minute here and there in your reactions, because even on rewatch, it’s a LOT.

JML

Media literacy +100 for you on the Lestat and Gabriella situation. I've seen so many others not get it so you are VERY refreshing. And claps for Daniel "Out and Proud" Molloy, vampirism really DID get him out of the closet like everyone joked about 2 years ago!

Gabriella is played by Jennifer Ehle who was Elizabeth Bennett to Colin Firth's Mr Darcy in the 1995 BBC Pride and Prejudice mini series

I don't think Daniel made up the train story. I think it came from Claudia's diary. Daniel definitely can, will, and has thrown his self preservation to the wind when it comes to these vampires, but I don't think he's got enough of a death wish that he'd 1) make that story up himself, 2) proceed to go on tour with the guy he intentionally slandered in a horrific way, thus putting himself at Lestat's mercy, and 3) laugh about it in front of Claudia's father during the conversation with Louis, if he had made it up himself. I'm really excited for Daniel and Armand to be freak4freak together though. Let's get weird with it!

jennifer ehle (the actress who plays lestat's mother gabriella) is someone i've had a crush on for most of my life. she IS my elizabeth bennet and i had a minor meltdown when i found out she was going to be in this season. the train scene was real according to claudia, it was one of the things they got from one of her diaries and not just something louis said. lestat says it's not true so right now it's a "he said, she said" between claudia and lestat. louis is pissed at daniel because daniel gave the book to the talamasca without telling him, and then the talamasca published it. during the concert it was louis who telepathically said "i'm still pissed". claudia was raped by bruce, she talks about it specifically with louis after they meet the paris coven. "But he said ‘the vampires out there are vicious.’ And then I met the mοthеrfսckеr and yeah, Lestat was right. It was better when he broke my bones, crammed me under the floorboards. I fought him, kicked him, clawed him, bit him. That was fine. It was when he had me pinned, and he'd tell me he loved me. Before, during, and after. Before, during, after. That fսckеd me up. One day he said, ‘Had enough of your gloomy face.’ Drove off on a motorbike. Thought I might as well go home, get Louis, head to Europe."

The Daniel/Armand chapter (ska devil's minion) is in the third book, Queen of the Damned, and it is indeed freaky. I know they can't do it the exact same way but god I hope they keep the spirit of it alive! I love Lestat as much as the next person and tolerate Louis (though I do actually enjoy the show Louis and obvious Jacob is fantastic and also incredibly beautiful) but those two are my favourites!

Thomas Pitt. Tom Pitt. They need to staaaaaaaaaaaaap.
