like if anything, the added details in these s1 flashbacks just shows how louis was even more emotionally unstable than he previously let on. and ultimately the results are still the same: claudia still got turned and trapped in her body and that family and louis was still broken by lestat's violence. nothing is different

#like even in s1 you can hear lestat say that claudia is too young to be turned but he did it anyway #both situations are ones where lestat has more power than louis but is acting as tho he was forced to do what he did #he could've told louis no. he could've doubled down and been like i'm not turning her like armand did w madeleine but he didn't #bc he wanted to bind louis to him and that's obvious from the scene in s1 #same w the dv scene. lestat wanted to punish louis for thinking about leaving and hurts claudia and then louis responds by attacking him-#which is an understandable thing to do when your husband is strangling your daughter and then he's clearly angry and is yelling at lestat-#but lestat could've restrained louis and left. but he wanted to hurt him and he straight up admits that.#nothing is different. the context doesn't change what happened.#vampterview #iwtv spoilers
