Lestat in the 18th century on his way to turn Louis, with only one coffin under his arm, about to create the most relevant fanfic trope of the 21st century: Mon Dieu, the girls are going to love this one.

"No need to tell him what to observe, or what to remember. He always knew such things. Years ago, when I'd done the dark magic on him, I hadn't had to tell him anything; he had savored the smallest aspects of it all on his own. And later he'd said I'd failed to guide him. Didn't he know how unnecessary that had always been?"

"Lestat wrote his story on floppy disks" is the canon knowledge you needed today.

Lestat & Louis quarreling, from Queen of the damned.

Forever obsessed by the way Lestat talks about Louis in TVL:

Vs the way Louis talks about Lestat in IWTV:

I love them both so much???? And yes, I know Louis says sweet, lovey-dovey things later on, and Lestat has some spiteful hag moments too but holy shit. I’ll just say it’s very, very fortunate our boy Lestat has a verbal degradation kink and leave it at that.

Louis: “Human Body! Lestat, you cannot become human by simply taking over a human body! You weren’t human when you were alive! You were born a monster, and you know it. How the hell can you delude yourself like this.” Lestat: “I’m going to weep if you don’t stop.” Louis: “Weep. I’d like to see you weep. I’ve read a great deal about your weeping in the pages of your books but I’ve never seen you weep with my own eyes.” Lestat: “Ah, that makes you out to be a perfect liar. You described my weeping in your miserable memoir in a scene which we both know did not take place!”

I love how savage Louis can be when he’s frustrated. And I love how much they argue using their books as receipts.

“He’s picked you because you are careless and flamboyant and vain. Oh, I don’t say this to hurt you. Truly I don’t. [...]"

- Louis from The tale of the body thief, ch 7.

"Louis was always the sum of his flaws, the most beguilingly human fiend I have ever known compassionate and contemplative creature, always the gentleman"

— Lestat from The vampire Lestat ch. 12

From Queen of the damned.

"What would Christ need have done to make me follow Him like Matthew or Peter? Dress well, to begin with. And have a luxurious head of pampered yellow hair.

I hate myself."

— Louis from Interview with the vampire.
