#but christ actually wept if this has been 15 episodes of pissing on lestat’s characterization bc Memory Is A Monster with no correction to

[indelicateink]

look i know we have like a mere ~43 minutes to tie it all up next sunday, but in addition to urgent matters, there is to me the very pressing issue of making clear what the actual fuck was up with that egregiously evil show lestat put on at the trial, weirdness and all. the one non-book-fans may not question bc, yknow. evil? as well as that entire first season where lestat was sold to the public as 500 pounds of pure asshole in a 10 pound sack

but i’m kind of nervous we’re not going to get clarity?

“If you noticed Lestat was acting a bit off during certain moments of the play, you were right to think something was going on. There are things in the second book in The Vampire Chronicles series, The Vampire Lestat, that better contextualize Lestat’s behavior in this moment. We won’t reveal that book plot here, but Reid says “seeds are placed” in the trial and in next week’s finale. At the time of publication, the series has not yet been renewed for a third season. If it is renewed, showrunner Rolin Jones previously told TV Insider that it will be an adaptation of The Vampire Lestat.”

(oh pls we all know the renewal is a sure thing but anyway—)

SEEDS ARE PLACED?

WE’RE PLACING SEEDS, AMC???

be for so real right now and do not tell me i have to wait another two years for the overdue “oh actually there were Reasons, i know we made him out to be a flaming (charismatic) dickwad for the non-book-reader to despise again and again and again, but actually lestat’s not soooo bad, not entirely, we were just fucking with your mind”

i’m breathing. it’s not sunday yet. maybe all will be well. i’ve only been waiting patiently since ’22 to have this poor bastard loathed 2% less in the court of public opinion. i have NERVES
