Getting REAL sick and tired of how omori TikTok views sunny.
Like, they view any scene of him being emotionally vulnerable, affectionate, or even just making an expression outside of just being completely neutral as “mischaracterised”. He’s not some cool, stoic, unwavering badass, he is a traumatised teenager. Don’t cry whenever he dares to give his friend a hug or (god forbid) be SAD about something??? Isn’t like. Part of the point of his development about him allowing himself to break down the repressive walls he built when he shut himself in? And being able to rely on his real friends instead of imaginary versions? And isn’t the game like. Meant to SHOW that he still cares about them despite isolating himself?
It’s really stupid to get mad at a character like that showing emotion or affection personally, especially since he’s not used to expressing it properly after so long. But that’s just me

trying to write anything in new orleans era is such a mess because like. What the hell do you base lestat characterization on. of course what we see of louis in that era isn't entirely accurate but you can reverse-engineer it a little because we have present day louis in front of us and we see at least BITS of things he tried to forget about and we know how he feels about it all or at the very least how he's trying to convince daniel he feels. for claudia we have the diaries where we can be pretty sure that those are her words. yeah she wrote at least some of them knowing that it might be read by the people she at the time thought of as parents and another solid chunk of it she was a child for and yet another chunk is missing but at least it Exists. what do we have for lestat. the s1 dubai retelling? performance by a guy who was in love with him for years and then spent a couple more decades trying to hate him and pretend he didn't matter (and who has also had his head messed with, extent of which is unknown). s2 dubai retelling? partially told by louis (see previous statement), partially by armand (ANOTHER guy who used to be in love with him and now has complicated feelings and oh yeah REALLY STRONG MOTIVATIONS to not tell the truth about him). the trial's version of new orleans happenings, as well as the version of lestat we see there, in script and retelling? see above for the reliability of the retelling and multiply the strength of armand's motivation to 1. lie about it 2. muddy louis' memory of it by x1000000. the script we never fully see, and it's A Script, it's not lestat's words (plus if they're gonna pull anything like tvl he was uuuuhhhhh having a bit of a time there). and that leaves what to extrapolate from? the only time in two seasons we Actually see lestat (i.e. end of 2x08) where he is in a Very different place emotionally than he was in 1910-1940?? tvl the book, when we don't know what exactly they're going to keep for the show and what they're not (how much lying was armand doing when he told daniel about the eighteenth century i Need to Know!!!)?? okay we DO have some bits from Louis that i feel safe trusting in completely, the ones where he revised something he said previously in dubai - i.e. how louis reacted to lestat's death, how claudia was turned, what happened in the coffin room in the 1x05 big fight. but besides that what is there!! A business card, gilt-edged. A song, but only as an inferior re-recording. A letter that he MUST have written before February 1940 but we have no idea exactly when - if he already knew louis and claudia might be the death of him and wanted to fuck them up a little with it in the event that they succeeded, or if it was written solely out of genuine love? we don't know SHIT!!!

radiant dawn doesn’t give you much to work with in terms of dialogue but executes some remarkably efficient storytelling in the dialogue it DOES have. I love that interaction between rafiel and tibarn not only because it’s very funny but because it establishes in like 3 lines that 1) the two of them know each other, or knew each other, ostensibly well enough that rafiel should be able to surmise that tibarn is bluffing (he’s also a heron, like, he knows tibarn is bluffing); and 2) tibarn is uniquely vulnerable to Distressed Heron. he’s used to intimidating people, he does it a lot, he nearly kills sothe and doesn’t budge for micaiah, but rafiel’s reaction is the only thing that makes it backfire. it’s the only time tibarn fully cracks onscreen. he stammers and pleads and panics. it’s such a remarkable critical failure that I feel it’s a totally legitimate read that rafiel does in fact know tibarn wouldn’t hurt him, and additionally, is fully aware that folding to the ground and bursting into huge ghibli tears will make tibarn back off. no rafiel isn’t a scheming personality but he’s also not been crying his way through every battle up to this point. I think at the very least it’s easy to allow yourself that emotional reaction in the midst of a high-stakes battle when an old friend tries to threaten you and you know him well enough to know that ur white boi tears will nip that shit in the bud :^)
