the revelation that claudia’s rebirth was such a twisted and horrible moment, with louis dragging her like she was a thing, a stranger who neither of them knew but he kept saying over and over “our daughter, our beautiful little daughter” to lestat, really solidified the way she was never the main character of her own story. she was always an accessory to some or the other of louis’ whims: his guilt, his loneliness, his conflict of being a killer, his rocky relationship with lestat. there was love there, love from both her fathers, but it was never enough. lestat saw her too much as a wretched mirror held up to his own self, and louis was always too steeped in his own feelings to care enough about hers. claudia’s story truly was the greatest tragedy in this tale, treated horribly by every man around her, even her fathers, relentlessly exploited and brutally ignored, always second and never first. the only one who loved her the way she deserved to be loved was madeleine, and the moment she truly had her, her happiness was torn from her. and just before she died, she got to see someone actually choose her in her entirety, not for what she can be but for who she is, and it still wasn’t enough. she still burned alive in the sunlight. the love was there, but it wasn’t enough to save her.

OOOHH thats a good one i love that (tags via @possessable)
(btw CU saying "KILL YOURSELF" is actually a reference to @leosulfurous' post here)
it would make sense for him to just cover his mouth in shock since he never knew he'd be capable of getting angry, or even experience being angry given his personality in the books!
I have to admit though when you posted that shitpost, it actually inspired me to draw that "CU gets angry" idea. the only problem is trying to figure out what would make him mad hmm
anyway heres some screenwriting text under cut as i try to figure out how to visualize this idea
wow what a weird format this is in, I just typed all of this in google notes

Pole Out Boy and their missed calling in life (x)
(Pete: (The new record's) definitely a lot sexier than the last one.
Patrick: There's a lot more slinky outfits, and, you know, garter belts.)
