LOUIS & ARMAND

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (2024) 2.03 – No Pain

[solve-me-a-crime]

i would too cause i’ll do anything but verbalize my feelings tbh…

Armand really said, "Oh, you think I'm boring? Let me show you how NOT boring I can really be!" and started yo-yoing a twink around the apartment

Really controversial opinion here, but I think it would actually be really interesting and on-theme if Armand hadn't lied about anything significant other than what we have canon confirmation of him lying about (i.e. the extent of his involvement in the trial, that he lied to Louis about breaking with the coven). Not Louis asking him to erase the SF memories, not the Stein photos (which I don't think he lied about anyway). And not because I'm this huge Armand defender (even though, sure, I do have a more positive view on him that most of the fandom, I guess), but because I think it would fit nicely into those themes of "am I the history I endured?"/"are we the sum of our worst moments?" on both an in-universe and meta level.

Like, have it be kind of a crying wolf situation, where Armand had lied before, and in such a significant and harmful way that it has created this massive breach of trust, both in his relationship with Louis and in the "relationship" with the audience. Now, everything Armand says and does is suspect because the betrayal was so massive, the breach of trust so fundamental. We don't actually have proof of Armand lying about anything else, even the SF memories situation, on close examination, why would he do it? what were his motives to erase those memories specifically and not others, like the entire interview with Daniel? But everyone automatically accepts he's lying because...well he lied in such a big way before, right? And I think their argument in 2x4 is there not because Armand actually messed with the photos, but because it's an illustration of the root of dysfunction in their relationship - it all goes back to that betrayal. Armand says, clearly exhausted and frustrated, "you just assume it was me." And he's not wrong - why would you immediately jump to that accusation of your partner unless the two of you had trust issues?

And you know, again, I'm not saying that this is true. I'm just saying it would be interesting to me if it was because it would be another twist and take on that theme of...how does the past affect us? How does past trauma and past actions (our own and of those around us) change our view of the world, ourselves and others? What happens when we are judged by our worst moments? Can we ever escape the history we have endured (or created)?

But it’s only because Benji teaches Armand how to use technology, he wasn’t born an iPad baby, remember how he was so amazed by phones and made Daniel call Paris in the middle of the night?

Armand, the iPad kid, watching Lestat trying to unlock his iPhone:

We need more Amel fan art!

A collection of Amel doodles! Also, my first time drawing “Red Noodly Appendage Amel” as seen by Lestat during, like, a hallucination or something in Armand’s library.
