Hi anon, thanks for the question!

So, the laughter Lestat does, this is actually a piece of characterization borrowed from book!Lestat, i’m pretty sure Sam Reid has talked about it. In the books, Lestat himself admit to this habit of his, this mocking laughter he does in the worst possible moments, and that he doe it. I read this moment as him not exactly mocking Louis’ sentiment, but the question itselt, but of course, Louis has no way to know it.

This whole episode is not so much about Lestat and Louis’ failure at having an open relationship, it is about Lestat reacting in the worst possible way to Louis telling him he does not want to kill humans anymore. Lestat knew Louis was struggling with his nature as a vampire (just watch his reaction and his words in the tenor scene) but him flat out refusing to kill anymore is a blatant rejection to his nature as a vampire, which Lestat reads also as a rejection of him and their relationship.

Everything he does in this episode is motivated by this imo. It only escalates from here but this is how it starts.

It’s also why Lestat is so satisfied at first in their last scene in this episode and proposes that this day could be their anniversary. He doesn’t see Louis’ guilt at the riots; he sees it as Louis finally accepting his nature as a killer. He is, of course, wrong again because Louis did not accept his vampire nature so again, trainwreck from here again.

Antoinette in this episode doesn’t really mean anything to Lestat other as an amusement and a tool he can use to provoke Louis in any way he can.

Hello!

I would say that it is relatively popular, yes - along the years I have seen people’s interpretations about Gabrielle varying between seeing her as a GNC/butch lesbian or a transmasc character. And I mean, it’s not like there’s a ton of Gabrielle content out there (a shame), but I think this is not an unpopular view of her by far.

Não só participava como era (ainda sou já que apesar de inativo o fórum ainda existe) moderadora do a Ilha da Noite, haha. Sim, também sempre fico feliz de achar fãs das Crônicas por aí, foi a primeira série na qual eu me fixei e sempre tem um lugar enorme no meu coração.

I would’ve loved (I still want to!) to have What We Left Behind’s DVD and I can only imagine that there’s extras and more nice things, but unfortunately it wasn’t available on my country and because of DVD regions it would be useless to buy an imported copy from US, so I had to go the pirate’s way and I torrented it. If you want to do this, I believe you still can find it in some major torrent websites!

Nope, it’s not because of this - he only tries to kill the Founders on the season finale of season four. They just got past Our Man Bashir, so they didn’t even get to this episode yet lmao. But also it’s already too late in the show, you already love Garak at this point even in his most cold blooded moments

I confess I know so very little about her! All I know is that she worked behind the scenes in Labyrinth and her stuff in Star Trek ofc, but as far as I can see she seems to be a lovely person ~~

Oh yeah, sure! I didn’t think anyone who follows me was going to watch this show, glad to know it isn’t the case because it’s so good. I’ll be tagging it as #the new pope spoilers from now on, then ~~

Ha, that’s fair!

I was looking for L'une chante, l'autre pas (One Sings, the Other Doesn’t) - I saw a feel stills of this film a couple of weeks and it made me curious enough to want to watch. Bit hard to find tho.

I think I may have found it early today but it’s a pretty heavy file, so I still have to try to see if it’s a working file ~~

Ha, that’s nice to hear! That was most likely the reason we followed each other back then, since I did have that Sherlock phase (and even watched season 3 and 4, hated both). I had my fair share of fandoms change as well so congrats to you too, haha!
