#does not mean lestat cant be clueless btw

[dulacdat]

I think you all love to downplay how much of a cunt lestat is, in general.

he is mean, cutting, vicious and snarky when he gets his defenses up. I do not enjoy the fanon flanderized version that is so clueless, dumb and wide eyed at everything.

you all really took the "lestat might not believe louis ever loved him" and turned it into "lestat doesn't comprehend any emotion exhibited by louis" which easily became "louis is an asshole who doesn't let lestat in in anyway and gatekeeps every single feeling" that's untrue and just makes both louis and lestat so flat.

lestat is a crier. doesn't mean he keeps crying at louis' feet in every interaction while louis is irritated and cold. why would you root for this dynamic lol.

let lestat be the bitch that he is omg
