#louis in all this? as it spirals into a full blown effort?

walk with me here. everyone's hyped about the TVL 'longface' music video release. lestat can't fucking wait, his big love song to louis, surely his mon cher will be moved once more by his pointed attempt to declare his love through his most moving medium...
music video drops at 12AM, lestat texts louis the link, and then nothing. for hours. maybe even a day goes by. lestat's nerves are going insane, almost foaming at the mouth, but then he gets a single text in return.
[3:00am] loml louis: your caucasity is blinding
tired, twice-tragic breakup, louis de pointe du lac putting the least effort into the response to lestat's obvious cry for attention. not a single clarifying response. radio fucking silence.
lestat goes unhinged. google.com is filled with a thousand searches. what does it mean? is louis angry at him? did he ruin everything?
the only person who could clarify things for him is naturally louis' grumpy best friend also tired and fucking over it daniel molloy.
cue daniel molloy dying laughing at at the text once lestat shows him. tear stain lestat just sobs in confusion and poor daniel is going to have to try to patiently explain to lestat de lioncourt what it means to be caucasian in the twenty-first century. what it means to louis to be a black american man in the twenty-first century.
his argument? he's french. daniel, a fellow palm-colored man, has to try. he's going to get the whole damn production canceled if he says shit like that.
now, i hear you, lestat does not give a singular fuck what society says and thrives on chaos and cancellation. but this matters to louis, this is important to how louis views him.
he has to get it right and show louis he's capable of learning and displaying empathy. growing into the modern age with respect and understanding.
cue the zoom sensitivity meetings at 6pm in his dark ass tour bus. cue the therapy appointments and AITA reddit posts.
what i'm trying to say folks is that eventually, TVL public accounts will start posting his support for Kamala Harris for president and possibly playing at events.
the caucasity is still blinding but the effort is there.
