so in the movie i just watched apparently vampires will always constantly crave the blood and touch of their maker and now i'm just thinking about how hard those years must've been for louis, like obviously we know he was craving lestat's presence and his touch but him craving his blood just adds another layer to his yearning
#tbh louis is just naturally like that™️#or well only when it comes to lestat tbh#guys is this already canon in tvc universe? idk enough about it#now that im thinking about it i think i saw a post like this on twitter#about how by the dubai era lestat's blood would've been completely wiped out of louis' body :(((((#louis de pointe du lac#interview with the vampire#me yapping#loustat

do you think maybe there's a chance that Armand was. doing what Armand does. and projecting all over the place when he talked about Louis doing the interview to get Lestat's attention. so in 2022 he reluctantly went along with the interview because maybe he had a vague hope that Marius was still out there like Lestat said, and if anything could attract his attention it would be Armand joining Louis's "reveal ourselves to the entire mortal/vampire world in a book written by our son pet journalist" scheme. and maybe Armand never even admitted to himself that that was something he was considering until his life with Louis crashed down under the weight of his own bullshit, but now he has to make sure Daniel lives long enough to publish the book, sickly mortal body be damned, because what else does he even have anymore?
#like even if fake rashid was never unmasked armand was going to end up in louis's narrative anyway#he broke the great laws same way louis did#and louis isn't the only one who can go insane over a presumed-dead blond fatherhusband#like he can't find marius telepathically. the book is his best bet#monsters talks iwtv#marimand#armand#dubai trio#armand centric#interview with the vampire

It’s just…so painful to watch Armand readily submit in order to obtain the love he so desperately craves. And while it’s most assuredly a manipulative tactic, it’s still one borne out of fear and desperation. He cannot lose this person he’s come to love and so will become whatever they want, do whatever they want just so they’ll stay with him. But it won’t be enough. No matter how much he acquiesces or seeks to control (himself, others, the environment), he won’t be able to make Louis stay with him in the perfect life, perfect self he built in the hopes of finally being loved. It will all crumble with Armand left alone in the rubble of what he created, the author of his own abandonment.
#this unfortunately hits way too close to home for me#let’s not even get into Claudia’s anger at never being enough#iwtv spoilers#interview with the vampire#armand#this is just me speaking from personal experience…but there is definite manipulation at play here from Armand#and I don’t necessarily mean that pejoratively- when you’re desperate for people to like/love you you’ll become whatever they want#or whatever you think they’d want and you give it to them so they’ll want to keep you around#I’ve done it so often with the people in my life- and make no mistake it’s also a survival tactic#you give someone what they want they won’t hurt you#and when that’s how you survive for years and years it becomes the default method of interacting with others#even with normal people who genuinely mean you no harm you revert to that people pleasing mode#as a means of control both external and internal#this is what i see armand doing- his way of surviving that he’s never truly broken out of#armand ceding coven control to Louis and curating the Dubai penthouse for Louis are part of the same pattern of behavior#and even tho it’s ultimately harmful and will only end badly for armand and Louis’ relationship#idk if armand knows how to not exist that way with someone he loves/desires#all of this also ties into louis and daniel#because of course Armand will lose it over Louis finding connection and interest with someone else aside from him#someone HUMAN no less#and I can see Armand taking out his anger on Daniel as a way of expressing his own frustration at still not being enough for Louis#breaking daniel’s mind in a desperate attempt to understand why this human could reach Louis in ways he couldn’t#not saying any of this to excuse Armand and his behavior obviously (I’m very upset and worried over the trial looming on the horizon)#but I do understand this impulse and how you’ll throw ANYONE under the bus in order to preserve your place with loved ones#it’s all horrifying but unfortunately I empathize#like even if Louis is right to walk out on him when he learns/remembers the truth of what happened to Claudia#I’ll probably still find myself saddened by Armand’s fate because I’ve absolutely been there myself#it’s a tragedy of his own making- his fear and desperation birthing manipulative and controlling behaviors#that ultimately result in your own abandonment#god this fucking show

If vampire Daniel definitive eye color is orange that would mean that every time Louis will look at Daniel he will only be able to think at Armand and the pain that come with it
#just thinking#imagine looking at one of the few person who never tried to manipulate you#and just seeing the eye of one of the person who hurted you the most#also-#if Daniel eye color change between his natural eyes green and the orange like in the end of the season 2#it means the angst is doubled cause Armand will look at him and see the green eyes of louis#Daniel being forever a testimony of the loumand relationship#(cause even if I think Armand did really bad thing in the relation I'm also a firm believer that Louis sucked in this relationship too)#love Louis but the guy also is toxic#anyway#danlou#loudaniel#but also#devil's minion#armandaniel#loumandaniel#dubai trio#(was thinking only to danlou at first but everything make me circle back to loumandaniel-)#kenshi's fandom#louis du pointe du lac#armand#daniel molloy#iwtv#interview with the vampire

having the kind of autism that makes you upset about people getting the randomest things wrongs is so stupid, like what do you mean It makes my skin itch that people arent paying detailed attention to the configuration of furniture in a tv show
#yes this is about the iwtv dubai appartment#literally muted my own post because it was genuinely pissing me off that people think the two seperate chairs#weren't there the whole time like guys please they were there in s1#the only scenery change has been the painting cmoooon#char.txt

and also. having read the first book armand turning daniel on a whim Kind of makes sense to me in hindsight. I guess? I don’t know exactly how it fits into his conceptions about vampirism being a curse - which is what ticks me off the most - but what we do know is that in the books he finds daniel in lestat’s house chasing vampires soon after he leaves louis, where he’s possibly once again perceived as louis’s ‘leftovers’, maybe an object who had access to louis and his sympathy in a way he envies. in both iterations of the story there isn’t any significant period he goes through alone, and we see him attach himself to louis even with the threat of not receiving any love in return hanging over his head, hoping that the love will manifest eventually. now that he’s irreparably bound himself to daniel (fathered him, even) it’s not a stretch to anticipate him developing a very unhealthy attachment to daniel.
#I refuse to accept that spite was his only motivator… you can’t cheapen his betrayal of louis for turning madeleine by calling it spite…#there’s probably some recontextualisation coming but the need to have that recontextualisation NOW is driving me crazy#can you believe he was willing to let louis leave him in paris with the coven. but the moment he decided to turn madeleine he decided to#kill him.#text#iwtv#armand#loumand#dubai trio#and specifically the flavour of daniel being one of the very few people who manages to see through his lies/personas/obfuscations#like louis manages to discover his vulnerability despite his projected confidence is kind of delicious. I love you dubai trio…#they balance out each other’s personalities so well. I’m going to really miss them next season.

I just can't stop about what daniel being turned by armand means?? Armand is the most powerful vampire we have seen in the show (so far hehe) and daniel is his fledgling now, what powers did he inherit?? Is he a powerful one now? Where do the characters stand in the vampiric power hierarchy??
#iwtv#interview with the vampire#daniel molloy#he spent the last two seasons with his only power being his wit and sass and bullied those powerful vampires so bad#now imagine him with telepathy and mind control????#he wont be a helpless hostage like he was in san francisco or dubai. he is going to tear those vampires to shreds

Louis with his ‘I don’t remember any of this’, Daniel clearly remembering only bits and pieces of his first encounter with loumand…… well I guess Armand is the only one in that Dubai building who doesn’t have memory problems (until proven otherwise)
#first i wanted to say armand is the only sane one but that’s literally the last thing that he is lol#(also i believe that lestat IS in that dubai building too but it’s a topic for another discussion so 🤫🤫)#interview with the vampire#iwtv#amc iwtv#louis de pointe du lac#daniel molloy#vampire armand

favorite outfits for that home wrecking temptress (Mr. Molloy)
LMAO is that what we’re calling him now? 😭
thank you anon for making me go back and realize that no, Daniel isn’t wearing the same outfit for 11 episodes straight.
#i mean i KNEW that#but like all his outfits look the same to me 😭#excluding the last one we see him in as a vamp#but like i stg in dubai he’s just wearing the same outfit only slightly different

Louis reassuring Daniel of his younger self’s interview skills the way Daniel did for Louis’ photography.
#they are best friends for real!!!#and all of their interactions in this ep broke my fucking heart#and only make me more terrified of how it’s all gonna shake out as we near the end#danlou#daniel molloy#louis de pointe du lac#daniel’s comment about louis detonating…😬 safe to say that’s still on the table in Dubai

Noah is such an unbelievable bastard oh my fucking god. Leaving Owen to struggle through the challenges alone so much that he collapses from exhaustion the moment he steps on the carpet of completion and ONLY snapping out of it when Emma reiterates what she said the last episode but with a few more words.
If for some reason you think I blow out of proportion how shitty Noah is to Owen in the comic post I swear to whatever god is out there I’m not. It sucks so bad it hurts so fucking BAD
#I couldn’t keep it in sorry#NOAH SUCKS SO BAD ITS LEGITIMATELY LIKE HE HATES OWEN#I SWEAR IM NOT MAKING THIS UP#the only episode so far where they’ve felt like friends is hello and dubai#and that’s one out of HOW MANY??#Noah sucks so bad fuck#total drama#Starry speaks

Something I’m going insane about is that in season one we’re told flight is something you can do or you can’t. It’s a gift you either have or you don’t.
BUT in season two we’re shown that Armand can teach vampiric abilities to others. Which means he COULD have taught Louis to fly, but specifically chose to tell him it was a gift that was innate.
#doubly interesting when you think about the bookshelves only accessible by flight in their home in Dubai#interview with the vampire#iwtv

I have a 100% serious question tho, and Ive been wracking my brain trying to figure this out: How can yall tell that Armand is praying in the wrong direction? I understand the whole Pray in The Direction of Mecca, but how do we know where that is in relation to an appartment that doesn't exist?
#if this is stupid i will delete it immediately this is literally the one thinf i cannot figure out myself skdjsksk#like at first i was like ''well the sound stage they filmed it on is prague so maybe production got mixed up“#but then i was like!!! wait the dubai appartment isnt even a real place! my only guess is in relation to the sun#but clearly there must be a way to know since ive seen this point brought up several times#anyway please tell me this isnt a stupid a question or i will be mortified#char.txt
