one of my favourite things about iwtv is that even though the vampires are decades or centuries older than they appear, daniel, an impetuous boy to them, is almost always the wiser, more experienced person - it doesn't help that louis has been steeping in a gaslit relationship for 70+ years, but it is also noticeable that daniel doesn't waver when armand tries to justify his memory altering. daniel has lived a life, a rich human life, where he has experienced good and bad and learned from it - louis is momentarily disarmed by armand telling him no, you asked me to take that memory away, and is stuck between what he wants to believe and what he knows to be true, while daniel, even though he is terrified of dying after this interview, looks at louis and shakes his head. this is the liar, this is the man that killed your daughter and betrayed your love and held you captive and tried to separate us. do not let him in. as if the 70-odd years louis has on daniel meant nothing, because somewhere in louis, he is still 33 and figuring his life out, and daniel was given the gift of mortality so that he can grow and change.
