Lestat dances with Louis in the final chapter of “Blood Communion,” which is likely their final canonical interaction with each other. 

I like to “headcanon” that Lestat’s proposal (see my previous post) occurs within a year or two after this.

Interview with the Vampire (1994)

xxhellonursexx:

A distraught Lestat rescues Louis from his suicide attempt by helping him drink his powerful blood. Slowly but surely, Louis’ charred flesh is healed and his burnt clothes fall away, leaving him nude and covered in a thin film of blood, but otherwise restored. 

Lestat is not described as crying, per se, but the text in “Merrick” describes his voice as being “hoarse” and “sore,” and he is clearly distraught by the possibility that he could inadvertently resurrect a disfigured, demented version of Louis, whom he would then be forced to destroy. 

Lestat reflects back on this event in later books as a moment that “broke his heart.”

Here’s a new pic for you to cry at. 

In all seriousness, though, this is from a rather sweet observation from Lestat about Louis in “Realms of Atlantis,” regarding Louis being there for Lestat as he struggled with grief regarding the uncertain fate of Amel.

Lestat and Claudia in Interview with the Vampire (1994) dir. Neil Jordan

“And I cannot say even now that I regret Claudia, that I wish I had never seen her, nor held her, nor whispered secrets to her, nor heard her laughter echoing through the shadowy gaslighted rooms of that all too human town house in which we moved amid the lacquered furniture and the darkening oil paintings and the brass flowerpots as living beings should. Claudia was my dark child, my love, evil of my evil. Claudia broke my heart.

And on a warm sultry night in the spring of the year 1860, she rose up to settle the score. She enticed me, she trapped me, and she plunged a knife over and over again into my drugged and poisoned body, until almost every drop of the vampiric blood gushed out of me before my wounds had the precious few seconds in which to heal.

I don’t blame her. It was the sort of thing I might have done myself.”

In the final pages of “Prince Lestat,” Louis sits under a tree at Trinity Gate, reflecting on his own words to Daniel Molloy in his own memoir, “Interview with the Vampire.”

This portion of the book also has a passage about Louis that I have, in many ways, never recovered from:

“His heart broke for all the victims everywhere of blood lust, and war, and accident, and old age, and illness, and unendurable pain.

But his heart broke a little for once for himself too.

And perhaps that was the real change in him, the change that he welcomed–that he could see himself as part now of all this great and glistening world. He was not part of some mindless force that sought to destroy it. No, he was part of it.”

The pose here is from an image I found while searching for “Arjun.” I ended up finding an image of “Arjun with Subhadra,” which is where this pose and general gist of the outfits comes from. Request by @pandoratheancient

LESTAT DE LIONCOURT ↷
INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (1994).

xxhellonursexx:

This is a “fill-in-the-blanks” moment from me, which is supposed to take place sometime after Louis’ rescue and return to court in “Blood Communion.” Lestat, who has been forced by the recent crisis to swallow his emotions and soldier on, is suddenly overwhelmed by them.
