Red on Maroon A 16-page IWTV (2022) fancomic about the vampire Armand and journalist Daniel Molloy visiting the Mark Rothko retrospective in 2024 Paris. Content mentions & warnings: The comic depicts Daniel’s internalized ableism. Rothko’s suicide is acknowledged but not discussed in detail. There’s angst, talk about kink and lots of fluff. Louis is mentioned as well as Daniel’s daughters. Marius is not named but is hinted at. The comic is set up in post-Dubai-interview time and based on my knowledge about s1 of AMC’s IWTV with sprinkles of book canon. Some notes about the comic below:
As with my last comic, I am not a native English speaker, so I hope you keep that in mind when reading <3 trying my best here meow meow
The Rothko retrospective can be visited until 2nd of April of 2024 in Louis Vuitton Foundation. I visited the place in January, so the comic’s surroundings are a mix of memories and some image searches, but in no way fully accurate. Since visiting Paris next week is probably not an option for most people, the foundation has a very cool free app, where you can listen to an audio guide about Rothko and paintings in the exhibition. I mostly used their app as a source for this comic, so in case you want to learn more, go here: https://www.fondationlouisvuitton.fr/en/events/mark-rothko
 I listened to a lot of Morton Feldman’s Rothko Chapel -album while making this. So put it in playing in the background if you’re into that sort of thing. Link to the playlist on youtube
Since I am Finnish and I found out that one of LVF’s first exhibition had some Finnish painter’s work, ofc I had to include them… Page 14 has Schjerfbeck’s “Dancing Shoes”  and Gallen-Kallela’s “Kullervo Cursing”.
Ok finally some headcanon stuff: in my head, while writing this comic, I imagined Daniel having accepted the dark gift from Armand, but both of them wanting him to live as a human as long as possible to enjoy the benefits of a… mortal body. :’D Since, you know, vampirism is forever anyway, so why not enjoy the variety of bodily fluids, body heat, aches and weirdness of aging? While having a chronic illness is shitty, his life is not, and while his disability marginalizes him, there’s a perspective there, a person living and enjoying things, allowed to take space and feel his thoughts develop from these changes (that also affect over 6 million people around the world with Parkinson’s).
After finishing the comic I am not so sure if Daniel is going to be turned into a vampire after all. So your guesses are as good as mine, would love to hear your suggestions, hehe!
I wish we knew more about Daniel’s daughters! I just came up with something here because I wanted to draw them and wanted to see their dynamics as a family.
I have now read the Devil’s Minion part from Queen of the Damned as a separate short story and appreciate the TV show’s changes to Daniel even more. I can’t wait for S2…..
My sincerest thanks to @anaid-queen for being a test audience, my informant and such a cheerleader the past week <3<3<3
Hope you enjoy xoxo
SORRY I POSTED THE WRONG IMAGE FILES FIRST WAHHH I had to repost ;_;

Until I saw your gif, I didn't even realize those were books falling around Daniel. I thought the ceiling was caving in because they were being attacked or something. I'm a little less nervous now, but I still hope Daniel doesn't get hit by those books.
Yep. When I first saw it, I was like no! Don’t hit Daniel!
But having a longer version of the clip in the full trailer to see it was actually the bookcases exploding gave me pause, and my mind immediately went to this passage from Louis in Prince Lestat:
He’d learned once more somehow, after Lestat had shattered the Undead realm with his antics and his pronouncements, to live from night to night in a semblance of happiness, and to seek for grace once more in the music of operas, symphonies, and choruses, and in the splendor of paintings old and new, and in the simple miracle of human vitality all around him—with Armand and Benji and Sybelle at his side. He had learned his old theology was useless to him and perhaps always had been, an incurable canker inside him rather than a spark to kindle any kind of hope or faith.
“….after Lestat had shattered the Undead realm with his antics and his pronouncements….”
This is referring to Lestat breaching the veil between the natural world (in which vampires exist) and the supernatural world (in which “angels” and spirits and “devils” exist).
This is what Lestat tells Quinn Blackwood in Blackwood Farm about his time in the coma with these supernatural beings called “angels”:
“This right eye was torn from me,” he said, “just as I described it, by those spirits who would have prevented me from fleeing Memnoch’s Hell. And then it was returned to me, here on Earth, and sometimes I believe that this eye can see strange things.”
“What strange things?”
“Angels,” he said, musing, “or those who call themselves angels, or would have me conclude that they’re angels; and they have come to me in the long years since I fled Memnoch. They’ve come to me as I lay like one in a coma on the chapel floor of St. Elizabeth’s….It seems my stolen eye, my restored eye, my bloodshot eye, has established some link with these beings, and I could tell you a tale of them, but now is not the time.”
“They harmed you, didn’t they?” I asked, sensing it in his manner. He nodded.
“They left my body there for my friends to watch over,” he explained, and for the first time since I’d seen him, he looked troubled, indecisive, even faintly confused.
“But my spirit they took with them,” he went on. “And in a realm as palpable as this very room they set me down to do their bidding, always threatening to snatch back this right eye, to take it forever if I didn’t do what they bid me to do.”
He hesitated, shaking his head. “I think it was the eye,” he said, “the eye which gave them the claim on me, the ability to reach down to me, in this realm, and take me—it was the eye, stolen in another dominion and then returned on Earth to its rightful socket. You might say that as they looked down from their lofty Heaven, if Heaven it is, they could see, through the mists of Earth, this bright and shining eye.”
He sighed as if he were suddenly miserable. He looked at me searchingly. “This wounded eye, this tarnished eye,” he continued, “gave them their compass to find me, their opening, as it were, between dominions, and down they came to enlist my spirit against my will.”
………………..
“I can’t entirely accept what I learned from Memnoch and those who came afterwards. I’ve never told anyone of my last spiritual adventure, though the others, the Blood Drinkers who love me—you know, my lusty troop of beloveds, I call them that now, the Troop of Beloveds—they know that something happened, they sense it only too well. I don’t even know which of my bodies was the true one—the body that lay on the floor of the chapel of St. Elizabeth’s, or the body that roamed with the so-called angels. I was an unwilling trafficker in knowledge and illusions. The story of my last adventure, my secret unknown adventure, the adventure I haven’t confided to anyone, weighs on my soul as if to make my spiritual breath die out.”
“Can you tell me now of this adventure?” I asked. It took a great sense of power in him, I thought, to look so readily abject, to show me such affliction. “No,” he said. “I haven’t the strength for the telling of that story yet, that’s the plain truth.”
If Lestat is the coma, it would not surprise me at all for the show to go big on such a climatic moment from the books and literally show that Lestat is “shattering the realm” when he senses what Louis has done, because at that point, those “angels” lose their power over him. The worst had happened when Louis “died”, and nothing mattered to Lestat anymore except getting to Louis.
@cbrownjc also made the point in this reblog in that this moment is also around the same time as the shattering bookcases moment, because Daniel is wearing the same shirt:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As noted in the reblog, Louis looks tired here. He looks like someone who’s accepted stuff with a grief-stricken finality. Daniel, on the other hand, looks tender. He’s looking at Louis with a quiet affection, as if some of his memories are back in place, as if he remembers something between him and Louis, and he’s recognizing that Louis actually does mean something to him. There’s a palpable understanding between them in this moment and yes, a mutual appreciation. It’s giving shades of the moment in 1x06 in which Louis finally offered to turn Daniel. Given the clips we’ve seen of Louis viciously attacking Daniel in the original interview and almost killing him, there’s something quite profound and poetic seemingly happening in this scene. A full-circle moment.
Until….
So yeah, I think the entire penthouse will “groan” and shake, rattle, and roll when Louis’ heart stops, and Lestat feels it. Judging from everything we have to go on thus far, including some of Jacob’s own comments, I really don’t see any other culmination for Louis in S2 other than the Merrick moment. Everything has happened that is needed to get him to that headspace, and I feel like trying to hold off on that and push him to that specific breaking point again at another time would just be repetitive. He’s in that headspace now.

Rewind the Tape —Episode 2
Art of the episode
Just like we did for the pilot, we took note of the art shown and mentioned in the second episode while we rewatched it, and we are sharing our findings with you. Did we miss any? Can you help us put a name to the unidentified ones? Do you have any thoughts about how these references could be interpreted?
Unnamed painting by Marius de Romanus
Created for the show (uncredited artist).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Armand (still "Rashid") tells Daniel that Marius was a contemporary of Tintoretto (1518-1594).
Transformation
Ron Bechet, 2021
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Exhibition Prospect.5 says about the collection this piece belongs to: "Bechet carefully renders the ways vines wrap themselves around trees for support and access to sunlight. At times, this relationship serves both the vine and the tree. Works such as Transformation depict a harmonious symbiosis, as tree and vine both flourish. (...) Through his immersive compositions, Bechet invites us to see history and ourselves in relationship to the beauty, power, and violence of the natural world."
And, from Xula Gallery: "Here, we are gifted with the physical proximity of life and death – How they share the same organic space, how they sleep together as equals. The flora of South Louisiana's natural landscape is cleaved open to expose its roots. (...) Here is botany that has every potential of becoming monstrous. All of these meanderings are used to symbolize the deep historical roots of a family home and exhibits the precariousness of nature, both human and environmental, with all of its nurturing and destructive potential. (...) It is a diaspora body, skin folded back to reveal its elegant and resilient backbone."
Unidentified painting
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the background of the dining room scenes, on the other side of the arch over Daniel's shoulder, we can see a big, square-ish canvas with an abstract painting. We haven't been able to put a name to it yet.
Unidentified painting
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another painting we haven't identified! The backstage picture on the right is from art director Nealy Orillion's socials.
Untitled photographs
Vivian Maier, undated
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Maier was a street photographer whose work was discovered and distributed after her death —she took more than 150,000 photographs during her life, and never printed or circulated any. You can learn more about how her work came to light here.
Berthe Morisot with a Fan
Edouard Manet, 1872
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This portrait shows painter Berthe Morisot wearing mourning blacks after the death of her father, but wearing a wedding ring.
Unidentified painting
Tumblr media
This one was too dark and blurry for us! We'll keep an eye out for a clearer look at it in future episodes.
A Doll's House
Henrik Ibsen, 1879
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lestat tells Louis "They'll seat us late, and we'll miss Nora's entrance with the Christmas tree," which quite a few fans soon identified as a reference to this play, in which a housewife becomes slowly disillusioned with marital life and eventually leaves her husband. This conclusion led to the play being banned in certain countries, such as Germany and Britain, and Ibsen was compelled to write an alternative ending, in which Nora's husband forced her to stay.
In the two stage productions pictured above, you can see Kelsey Brennan and Nate Burger on the left, and Assad Zaman and Anjana Vasan on the right.
Unnamed paintings of Papa du Lac and Paul
Created for the show (uncredited artist).
Tumblr media
Unidentified painting*
Tumblr media
* The running theory is that the woman in this painting is Gabrielle, Lestat's mother; which would mean this is another uncredited prop painted for the show.
Woman in A Fur Coat
Edouard Manet, 1879
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Additionally, on the bottom left corner of the frame you can catch a glimpse of another unidentified painting, but we couldn't get any clearer looks of it either.
Autumn at Arkville
Alexander H. Wyant, 1909
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The one in the mirror and the one on the other side of the door are too blurry, but we managed to place the one on top of the couch!
The Lone Tenement
George Bellows, 1909
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The National Gallery of Art says about this painting: "Bellows has imbued the composition with a sense of eerie wistfulness, recording the precarious positions of those who were being displaced to make way for the future."
Don Pascuale
Gaetano Donizetti, 1842
Tumblr media
The opera that Louis and Lestat go to at the end of the episode follows an elderly bachelor, who gets conned by his nephew Ernesto and his friend Malatesta into marrying the nephew's lover, Norina, under false pretenses. You can find a complete synopsis here.
The Storm On The Sea Of Galilee
Rembrandt van Rijn, 1633
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rembrandt's only seascape was stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston on March 18th, 1990, alongside other 12 works of art.
Most of these were identified by @vfevermillion! As far as we're aware, both the Bechet and the Rembrandt were first named by Gizmodo's Linda Codega. If you spot or put a name to any other references, let us know if you'd like us to add them with credit to the post!
This week, we will be rewatching and discussing Episode 3, Is My Very Nature That of a Devil. We can't wait to hear your thoughts! And, if you're just getting caught up, learn all about our group rewatch here ►

People have this theory based on how Daniel reacts to Armand in the 70s that they knew each other before which I like.
If it weren’t for Daniel coming in and immediately going to the bar I would say the reason he knows Armand is because they hooked up in the bathroom five minutes before.

was daniel who left or armand? did they fight? was it because daniel was in love with someone else? did he forget because of the years of substance abuse or armand had to make him forget? was it a decision they both made? daniel would forget in order to be able to have a somewhat normal human life and armand could go back to louis? did armand give daniel the necklace? did daniel give it back to armand when they parted ways? why now? is it because daniel is sick and armand is scared? or did they make a pact? when daniel had lived a whole life armand would come for him? that's why daniel's marriages didn't work out? subconsciously he knew? does armand have pictures of them together? the island exists? did armand used to call daniel lover? did he take his beautiful boy to the ballet to see baryshnikov? why didn't they stay together?

"i'm the quiet you've been longing for" has to be the most mesmerizing scene i've seen. with the disarray background, contrast to the soft tone of his words, as daniel shakes before him... such a beatiful way to paint the turmoil that happened before and the calmness after that daniel have been seeking his whole life.

hii! i was wondering if you’d be willing to provide sort of a summary on armand’s backstory? i don’t mind spoilers, it’s just that i’d really like to know a bit more about him and what shapes his actions. i’ve read iwtv and he happened to be my favourite character in it :) plus, i’m very excited for his involvement this coming season, especially in the present day interview. i’m trying to read the books in order so i’ll probably fit in tvl before may but there’s no chance of me reaching qotd or tva until after s2
Hey!
Sure! TVL will have some of it in it (though not the whole story).
I'm putting this under the cut, just in case. Obviously this is the backstory as it stands right now... though given the little hints we have already I actually do not think they will or need to change that much.
This is a rough overview, with a handful of comments wrt the show.
Please let me know if something is unclear.
Armand was born near today's Kiew, that area was heavily contested then. He was a gifted icon painter, and more or less expected to be one of the entombed monks one day. His actual name is Andrei.
On a ride with his father he is kidnapped and sold as a sex slave to brothels. Marius, an ancient, blond, originally roman vampire who likes to dress in red eventually buys him and gives him a home and education, with other boys, in Venice. Over the years their relationship develops, and Armand, then called "Amadeo" grows more to, let's say an intimate confidante slash lover to Marius. He knows Marius is not human, and he wants to be what he is. Marius is not wholly willing, though over time his resolve breaks, and when Armand is mortally injured he turns him as not to lose him.
Shortly after the turning they are attacked by the "Children of Satan", who kill (most of) the other boys, and who kidnap Armand. Armand thinks Marius destroyed, since he saw him burning.
Armand is tortured until he breaks and accepts the rules of the "Children of Satan", led by Santino. He lives with them, until he is assigned the role of the leader of the coven in Paris. Allessandra, who gives him the name "Armand", goes there with him.
A few centuries later Armand encounters a blond blood drinker who wears red - he is heavily reminded of his maker, and in a way "imprints" on him - this is, of course, Lestat. Lestat, who brings his mother Gabrielle, and then his lover Nicolas across. Lestat who defies the rules Armand tries to impose on him (Armand tries to enforce the rules and make Lestat submit by hunting him, and kidnapping and torturing Nicolas) immediately, and who ultimately ends up destroying the remnants of Armand's world view when he does so.
Armand, unmoored and almost alone after having thrown a lot of his own coven into the fire, tries to find a new purpose. Lestat gives the theater to him, and Nicolas, who has gone more or less mad after turning. Though Armand tries to make Lestat love him, the way he goes about it actually makes sure he does not succeed, because he tries by force, by spell-binding and force-feeding. There is attraction though, but it stays an attraction that never takes the last step.
Armand tells Lestat and Gabrielle his story, and hopes to come with them, but Lestat and Gabrielle decline. Armand tells Lestat he can always come back for help.
Lestat leaves Paris with Gabrielle to look for Marius, of whom he knows from Armand's story.
Armand leads the coven in the theater, Nicolas writes plays and music for them, until he goes so mad Armand knows no other way to control Nicolas other than to cut off his hands and starve him, and eventually Nicolas goes fully mad by hunger and pain, and when he gets his hands back (limbs/digits etc can be reattached) he throws himself into a fire.
(In the show we know Lestat returned twice to Paris, so it stands to reason they might have met up again then as well, but that is a change from the books.)
Armand continues to lead the theater, but he gets more and more disillusioned with it all, and when Louis comes along the coven of that theater consists of (almost completely) different vampires than when Lestat left there.
It's a bit unclear what the exact time frame is, but Lestat arrives approximately at the same time as Louis does.
Lestat goes to Armand after the murder attempt, to beg for healing blood - and Louis' (and Claudia's) life. Armand, mightily interested in this "Louis", this most human vampire... throws Lestat in a dungeon and goes to meet Louis. And, fortunately, falls for him.
He influences Louis to turn Madeleine so she and Claudia can leave, but Louis refuses to leave them. The coven knows that Claudia attempted to kill Lestat and there is a trial, a trial Armand does not stop. A trial where a tortured and half mad Lestat is made to testify against them. A trial where Louis is judged to be entombed, and Claudia and Madeleine to death.
Armand sees this as an opportunity to try out a surgery, ostensibly to give Claudia what she wants most - a grown up body. He chops off her head and sews it onto another vampire's body. The procedure works, but Armand himself is repulsed by the horrific result and has Claudia and Madeleine put into the sun, where they burn to ashes.
The vampires give the yellow dress Claudia wore to Lestat afterwards. Armand (eventually) frees Louis, claiming he could not prevent it, and takes him to Claudia. Louis tries to gather her ashes but Armand takes him away, and spell-binds him, when he asks for Lestat.
Louis eventually breaks free, and tells Armand not to go to the theater the next night. He goes and burns the whole thing down, killing all inside.
Armand takes Lestat and throws him off a tower, telling him Louis is dead.
Louis is numb after, and Armand goes with him. Armand tells Louis Lestat is dead. They wander the world for decades. Live in New York for a long time. Eventually Armand tells Louis that Lestat had not died in the fire, which makes them go to New Orleans. There Louis tries to find Lestat.
Supposedly Louis finds Lestat, broken and still healing, and leaves him there. (Lestat contradicts that later.) And supposedly Armand goes to Lestat to complain about Louis.
Armand and Louis break up after that.
Armand goes on alone, for a while (in the books).
When Louis gives his interview to Daniel in San Francisco he is around though, and he saves Daniel. In the books, he puts him in a cage, and then tells him to run. He hunts Daniel around the globe. The hunt becomes a chase, and eventually Armand falls in love with Daniel - and Daniel with him, though the relationship is not exactly the healthiest for Daniel. (That is "The Devil's Minion" chapter in QotD.) Night Island happens.
Lestat wakes up, tries to find Louis (and shield him) by becoming a rockstar, giving out their secrets, and writing his own life story. In the books Akasha rises, and burns a lot of their kind. Armand brings Daniel across in more or less desperation, on the way to Lestat's concert.
>> This obviously has been changed. I have theorized that Akasha did not rise, which would have chain-event repercussions. But we will have to see that, for the show. Daniel did not get changed but loses his memory instead.
In the books Akasha is eventually defeated, and the remaining vampires all come together on Night Island afterwards. But most of them are not "ready" yet. They break apart again.
When Lestat encounters the Devil Armand is there for him, and after Lestat goes mad at the end, he tries to commit suicide, but fails. In the aftermath Marius turns two mortals he loves for him, Benji and Sybille, because Armand would not. Armand dictates his life story to David.
Armand is also one of the few who may drink from Lestat while he is in the coma (and who sees "Christ" when he does so), and who can wake Lestat. He is also the one who routinely "cleans up" everywhere he is (namely any other vampires around).
Armand eventually goes back to New York, and acquires three connected town houses, the so called "Trinity Gate", in which many vampires seek shelter from time to time. Louis eventually goes and lives with him there.
>> That might be the show's Dubai penthouse, we'll see.
Armand has "lost" Daniel to Marius for a while. Daniel went a bit mad after turning, and Marius took care of him.
When the threat around Amel and Rhoshamandes happens and Lestat opens his castle in the Auvergne most vampires come together there, including Louis and Armand (and others).
Armand and Daniel reunite there, and last we see them they are together again.
Armand is one of the major players at the "court", and the past has mostly been forgiven (to errr... simplify it).
In the end, he lives with Daniel, Marius, Lestat and Louis (and a lot of others) at the court.
... I'm not sure if this summary suffices to "understand" Armand. I think you might need to actually read the books (and especially his book) there... but feel free to ask if you have further questions :)

Daniel is too old for this shit! He didn't need to fall in love again and not with some vampire that look like he was going to devour Daniel at any second.

I thought again... I imagined that Armand had let Daniel live his human life "in peace" because he wanted to. In the books Armand wanted Sybelle and Benji to have a normal, perfect human life while he looked after them like a guardian angel, so putting that on Daniel didn't seem absurd. But then comes the part about Marius. Things with Sybelle and Benji get terrible because Marius seems to me to be good at fucking things up for Armand and that's what he does. So when I look at the series and the possibility of having Marius there I think about what we could have.
You can say that Daniel is Armand's only son but look at what the show has done with Claudia. In the books Claudia is sort of turned by Louis and Lestat, one drank her to the brink of death and Les finishes the job and that didn't happen in the series. In the books Madeleine is transformed entirely by Louis and in the series it will be Louis and Claudia... So what's to stop Marius turning Daniel but Armand being responsible for the excessive exchange of blood between them (the means by which Marius usually turns people)? With that justification that the creature hates the creator, Armand would be free of such a "curse" and could still hear Daniel's thoughts. And Daniel would still be part of him...
I know it's a change that seems to be very painful, but they've already changed other things in the series that something like this wouldn't shock me. If it's to establish a "healthy" relationship, then ok.
And besides (adding my deepest opinion🚨) as much as I hate the fact that Marius stayed with Daniel to "cure" him, it's still canon in the books and something that will unfortunately be carried over into the series somehow. So keeping Marius as Daniel's creator once the transformation can be a means of "healing" for Daniel would "still make sense".
To explain further, in the books Daniel is already altered as a human and so we thought that the Dark Gift would finally give him what he wanted, but when we find out that his mind is even worse it's painful. So let's assume that Daniel goes mad as a human after meeting Louis and Armand (still according to the books) but the guilt that Armand carries (in the books) for Daniel's madness will be carried over into the series during the period when Daniel was still human. So to cure Daniel (in the series) Armand will have Marius' help and this will end in Daniel's transformation. But if in the series Daniel remains unstable even after his transformation then it will be UNIQUE for Armand to take care of him, which I think should have happened all along in the books because it would help Armand to grow up.
