So I’m reading Obi-Wan “A Jedi’s Purpose” comic and literally Obi-Wan saying “I admired Anakin in that moment” proves how far his “attachment” is with Anakin.

So I've made this post before but rather than comb through my blog and reblog it I'm going to make it again, just with more evidence this time:

This section with Babette makes me insane because up until this Louis has made it clear that he is attracted to Lestat but doesn't like him

But when Daniel asks Louis is he is in love with Babette he goes on this weird tangent:), saying that if he had anything to hide, he wouldn't say it:

When they are talking about detatchment Louis earlier said that he couldn't be upset over his brother's or any human's death anymore because it seemed so insignificant, just a part of the circle of life. So Daniel assumes that means that Louis can't be in love with Babette bc Louis has this dettachment from humans. HOWEVER Louis is also very detatched and cold with Lestat, they aren't close, after Lestat kills Feniere Louis says they barely talked (approx 1 year at least)

Louis admits that while he did not love Babette "Babette was to me in her own way an ideal human being..." Louis feels that this someone he should have fallen in love with but did not. You can read this because she is a woman and Louis is only attracted to men, or simply that she is kinder than Lestat is. I see it as both.

He also explicitly says he doesn't feel passion for her that was not bloodlust. Notice in the below section he says he felt drawn to her in a way he had no other woman as a human, and that their relationship could only end in death. His only desire for her is bloodlust, not lust lust like Louis describes when he is mortal and is approached by Lestat

Louis also says his greatest love was foreshadowed in Babette. And while that could mean Claudia, with the only thing in common being "intelligent women" I don't think that's who he is talking about here.

Then the book moves forward with the plot of Louis convincing Babette to let them sleep in the basement (and it says that Lestat was outside freaking out that they would die which is inconsistent with AR's later addition that they could sleep in the earth but whatever). And when they find they are locked in the basement and Lestat is scratching at the walls like a cat, Louis then brings up detatchment in relation to Lestat

Near death and in relation to Babette Louis is wishing his relationship with Lestat had been better. How because Babette is human/a woman Louis can't have the relationship he seeks (companionship/romantic love) but he could have with Lestat bc he is a man/vampire.

Then when Lestat says he wants to leave, he's done with Louis (which at this point Louis has threatened to get rid of Lestat multiple times) Louis can't bare for him to leave

And then finally we and of this note, while waiting for Babette to appear and unlock the door Louis thinks this:

What did you feel for Babette/Lestat, Louis?

Well this next section says a desire for communication, which remember Louis said eariler in the section about wishing they had been better friends, was something he also doesn't have with Lestat but wants

So in summary, Louis is using Babette here as a way to talk about his romantic feelings for Lestat throughout this scene

This forgotten castle (Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers) was abandoned after a fire In 1932. Seeing it up close is breathtaking. These days it seems like castles only exist in storybooks and Disney movies. What happened to the foreboding dwellings of our wealthiest ancestors? The truth of the matter is, while there are still many castles in Europe, many have fallen into disrepair and ruin over time. However, a group of preservationists in France are trying to save a 13th century castle that is slowly being reclaimed by nature. The story behind the abandoned property is just as fascinating as what’s left standing today. See an amazing video here.

Okay bestie now Louis and Lestat relationship head canons!!!

YES THEY

(These are gonna be super fluffy and dumb because real canon has enough angst)

  • Reading together is their favorite thing to do on nights in. Louis reignited Lestat's passion for reading and language, so they work their way through all the classics from the time they missed together before moving on to modern fiction. It's like a little book club for two, complete with hours of discussions and debate
  • Once they're both positive that Louis can be trusted around animals, Lestat gets them pets. He has a dog (Mojo is the only part of Body Thief canon I accept) and Louis has a bird (he loved the ones the had at Rue Royale)
  • Lestat is obsessed with documenting their life together in a way they couldn't before. He's always taking photos and videos of them in every possible scenario. They have stacks of Polaroids from every date they've been on with a brief description written on the back and hours upon hours of home videos of everyday life. There are boxes of mementos too. Notes and love letters, playbills, travel souvenirs, receipts, ticket stubs, mixtapes, you name it, Lestat's kept it
  • Louis is very attracted to Lestat in his glam rock outfits but he won't say it out loud. You couldn't waterboard a verbal acknowledgment of his appreciation for leather pants out of him. (Lestat knows, but he can't make fun. He has his own thing for the uptight English professor look Louis has going on)
  • After they reconcile and get together permanently (this happens after QotD, don't listen to Anne) they become That Couple and are always attached at the hip. If you invite one to do something there's a very good chance the other one will just sort of. Be there. They can have whole conversations with just eye movements and facial expressions. It's very creepy
  • Despite this, they are SUPER competitive. Monopoly, bowling, trivia, mini golf, whatever it is will have them at each other's throats in minutes. There will be at least one screaming match and they're both sore losers
  • Louis is the dead eyed boyfriend holding fifteen shopping bags while Lestat takes luxury outlets by storm. If he's feeling generous, Lestat can dress him like a Barbie doll while he dissociates
  • I mentioned in my Louis headcanons that he is a clothing thief, but Lestat has a hoard of stolen sweaters too that he wears on shitty mental health days. When they stop smelling like Louis, he'll put them back so they'll be worn again and prepped for restealing
  • Lestat has a notebook full of snippets of song lyrics about Louis. Louis has one full of candid sketches of Lestat. They both think the other doesn't know
  • Often when Lestat gets in a mood, he'll play the piano for hours on end. Louis never says anything, but sometimes he'll sit beside him a play a duet (one of the perks of vampire skill and intuition is spontaneous musical harmonies)
  • When they start sleeping in a bed together instead of a coffin, it's actually Louis who ends up turning into the cuddle octopus. No matter where they start in bed, Lestat always wakes up in a vice grip and with a mouthful of black hair
  • For a long time they couldn't talk about their memories Claudia or Rue Royale, it hurt too much. But after a few years of healing together, they started being able to share their good memories of her and their family with each other. It will always be bittersweet though. They don't discuss it often
  • Louis is ridiculously bitey. He never feeds enough so he's always a total piranha when they're in close proximity. It's a good thing Lestat has a crazy healing factor or else he'd be a bloody pulp from just getting fucking gnawed on all day
  • They would absolutely never let anyone find out (especially Armand) but they have a stash of marriage counseling books that got very heavy use in the first couple years. Sometimes mindful expressions of gratitude and begrudging "I feel" statements are all that keeps the parlor intact
  • They still have the knee jerk reaction to introduce the other as their brother-in-law in the modern world, but getting to correct it to "husband" is exciting for them both every time. It takes Louis a while to be comfortable with any public acknowledgment of their relationship, but he's okay with telling people and holding hands or chaste kisses now

When Louis talked about how Lestat knew him and knew he would love Claudia do you think that comes from the fact that Louis was once married and had a child? (but the child sadly died, sad face :( ).

I think that’s definitely possible, in the context of the movie version of the story.* “[Lestat] knew me, he knew I would love her more than the waking world.” Very poetic *u*

Expecting a child doesn’t necessarily mean you love kids, BUT, Lestat could read minds, and perhaps he knew just how much being a father meant to Louis.  Louis doesn’t speak much of his own father, when he died, Louis had to take over the family business at a relatively young age, so maybe Louis was really looking forward to being a better and more loving a father than the one he had grown up with ;A;

PLUS, it seems like it would have been Louis’s first child, making him a father for the first time. I can’t imagine what that must feel like, expecting to have your wife back in your arms, and a new baby to love and raise, and then get neither back, knowing your wife died in pain?? ;A;

Even if Louis wasn’t a kid person, I mean, how can you not love a super cute 5 yr old angel like Claudia was originally? Scooped out of abject poverty and sickness, someone you could lavish with gifts and who would be grateful for it, having known only the barest no-frills of a life before? Lestat knew Louis would feel protective of her, she could be something to inspire him to learn to live again. You can experience the world anew with them as they learn about it <3

*In the book version, it’s a younger brother that Louis had lost recently, Paul, a brother Louis was very close to. The death sends Louis spiraling into guilt and depression bc he feels responsible for it (and others, including his own family, blame him for it directly).

When Paul died, Louis says: “my mother told everyone in the parish that something horrible had happened in my room which I would not reveal; and even the police questioned me, on the word of my own mother.”

That feeling of blame in the situation is part of what made that loss so devastating to him, the death was preventable, if only he had had more patience with his brother ;A;

But with the loss of a child and wife in childbirth, I can imagine the husband feeling responsible for that, too. After all, if not for him, well, she wouldn’t have been pregnant (we’re assuming it was definitely his baby!) :-P

Louis, control, and hunger

After much thought, I would like to present the theory that Louis' defining character trait is not sadness, morality, or even hypocrisy, but actually hunger. At his core, Louis is, in spite of himself, such a consumptive force, a black hole of desire starting from well before he was turned. Building off of that, it's his commitment to restraining that hunger and his lapses in control following challenges to his personal ideology that drive his defining character beats.

I wanted to add: When it comes to relationships, this actually ends up making him very compatible with Lestat. Lestat is consumptive in his own way. He's kind of a bottomless pit that can never be loved enough, no amount of passion can be satisfactory. He has the endless capacity to hunger for the love and attention of those HE loves (he says as much to Gabrielle) and an infinite amount to give when he can receive. When it comes to Nicki and his mother, they're very finite resources of this give and take. That's not their fault, it's very normal, but it makes Louis an excellent match for him. They can create this feedback loop of endless consumption of the other without ever reaching the limit because their counterpart is taking right back from them. Vampire codependency ❤
