You ever try to fuck a hot guy you meet at a gay bar but then he starts trauma dumping about his abusive ex (that he’s still in love with) then you forget about it for the next 40ish years

Tried to stay on track for the rewind the tape event by @iwtvfanevents but I’m a binge watcher at heart and could not help but rewatch the entire season in the first week lol :’)
But something I noticed during my rewatch of Episode 6 is the beautiful music playing during this scene, when Louis and Claudia say their goodbyes before Claudia leaves for Europe.
Tumblr media
The track is called “Hey Sis You Don’t Need Me” by Daniel Hart, who composed the soundtrack for the show.
Not only was the track lovely and moving, but it was also familiar! It is what plays in Epsiode 5 when Grace and Louis say their goodbyes at the cemetery.
Tumblr media
I had to go back and listen again to make sure, but it’s the same tune. Louis saying goodbye to his sisters.
I don’t know if this track appears in other places throughout the show, would love to know if so. This is just a fun thing I hadn’t noticed during my first watch :)

Ok so episode 6, Louis plays the “inferior” re-recording of the original song Lestat wrote for him…and it’s being sung by Lestat INDICATING that at some point, probably more recently, Lestat has re-recorded something so important for his and Louis relationship which has so many implications for the overall story and I’m so intrigued

I really enjoyed episode 6 of IWTV. The writers did a good job of showing us why Louis and Claudia let Lestat back in the house without letting him off the hook.
I hate how much I enjoy him. His little hop into the train cabin talking bout “tickets please” had me inconsolable. He’s trash and I’m eating it up.
I can’t wait for my dear Claudia to do what she does in the film. Not giving Lestat satisfaction of finishing the chess game is not enough. I want strands of his wig under her fingernails, lol!
Jacob Anderson did his good acting as Louis. Even as he healed, you could see he never recovered from the assault. My heart didn’t stop breaking until we see him in the 1970s with that healthy fro and that blue leisure suit.
I do wonder about Rashid. He appears to be a vampire, but they established last week that he stuffs himself with honey and pineapple before Louis feeds on him. That’s a bit confusing to me. Was Daniel just dreaming or was it a real memory? Guess I should finish these damn books.

So Rashid is Armand?
RASHID IS ARMAND.
Or maybe he's not, but-
HE IS.

No wonder Louis was like cut the tapes, we’re done here, if Daniel was like ‘oh, sign me up’ after hearing all that. Absolutely not lol 
Also Daniel absolutely wanted to fuck Louis 100%, interview my ass.

I'm so not here for the team making Lestat and Louis a very stark domestic violence story when it was much more nuanced and interesting in the book but
definitely love the Magnus and Nicki bits in this episode

Can we talk about how, in episode 6, when Louis finally decides to go talk to Lestat, he looks absolutely deranged, murderous, covered in grime, and meanwhile the only part of his very serious statement that Lestat hangs onto is “you swam the Mississippi to find me :’D”

Could be the Prince stan in me… But I felt his essence all through Episode 6 of Interview with the Vampire. Lestat found his hired musicians lacking, so he re-recorded all the instrumentals himself on the song he wrote for Louis. Prince definitely did that to the Time before.
Also, Lestat physically reminded me of Prince in the “Automatic” music video. Tell me he didn’t hit this pose when he busted through the train cabin wearing that conductor’s hat.
If anyone wants to do a Brat Prince hybrid cosplay of Lestat as Prince Rogers Nelson, I’d be forever in your debt.

I'm sorry but I can't believe sex in ep6 even topic of discussion.
1)Why would they go to such lengths and spend their time and resources on making floaty sex, if it didn't mean anything and didn't serve any purpose? What purpose did it serve? Well, the first and last time we also saw floaty sex in ep1 and it was clear representation of connection and pleasure that sends you flying to Saturn and back. So, logically, ep6 sex too supposed to show connection and pleasure.
2) Next point (i'm not sure about this one tbh): perhaps there's one more parallel to ep1 scene - Louis "didn't consider himself a homosexual at that time" and we see cut to him having enthusiastic sex. In ep6 he was telling Daniel about being numb and we have cut to him PARTICIPATING in sex and not just lying there like a corpse.
3) They literally included Lestat stopping and checking on Louis and not doing anything before Louis kissed him. He noticed that Louis wasn't mentally there and stopped. Clear indication that Lestat wanted CONSENSUAL sex, if he truly didn't care he would just proceed to fuck Louis because Louis wasn't stopping him.
4) Give Louis a little agency, would you?(general you, not you, Nalyra) As I said, we didn't have any indication that Louis wad pressured into it, that lestat didn't care about Louis' consent and pleasure. Just because you're depressed doesn't mean you're incapable of making decisions. Louis' kiss was him reassuring lestat that he's here with him. He KNEW that lestat needed reassurance to proceed. Lestat can't read Louis' mind, he can't be 100% if Louis wants it or not, so he has to rely on what Louis TELLS him with words and body language. Louis told lestat with his actions that he wants him to proceed. That's Louis' decision, like it or not
5) I know fandom likes to act like Claudia is mentally 14 forever, but for majority of story she's grown woman. I'm actually not sure if she truly thinks Louis wouldn't mind her being in his head while they're having sex or she's actively disregarding his boundaries (that he didn't establish) but there's fact: it's weird. Maybe she thinks she's helping Louis to "cope" with sex because she's projecting her trauma with Bruce on Loustat (which is understandable!) but for me Louis' sounds uncomfortable, and resigned, half-heartedly trying to deflect Claudia. "Anywhere sounds like nowhere" - for me it was clear that he doesn't really want to leave and doesn't want to have this conversation but he fails to say it outright and shut down Claudia. So he just makes up excuses not to leave, avoids telling NO, and blocks his mind when Lestat notices that something is wrong.
So, my point, that cut from Bruce to Lestat was Claudia's mind coming to comparison. She thinks Louis does it to appease lestat, she's probably tries to help telling Louis about her escape plan, she views Louis' reluctants as fear of Lestat and that's it, when probably main reason is Louis simply not wanting to leave.
I'm so sorry for long essay, hope you don't mind! Love your work and blog:)
:) Glad you like.
And yeah... I cannot believe we're at this point again/still either.
Exactly. This is a deliberate thing, a deliberate connection to the best sex Louis had. As said before, it carries meaning.
Well, I mean, there are a lot more instances of Louis saying something and the show showing us something else. Or vice versa. That is... exactly the point. Louis is telling the tale for an effect. And that effect was to lead to the justified "murder night". But the why will be part of season 2.
I know
Louis is (not just) depressed because of Lestat. He is deep in the rite of passage. He addresses that on the bench. And yeah.. for some reason Louis' never gets his agency in these discussions. Because he could have moved away. He could have left. But he did not want to. He stayed right there, in Rue Royale during those 6 years (for example). Where Lestat could find him. But I digress. Louis does have agency, indeed. And it is often dismissed for some reason -.-
Claudia's thinking is very black and white, pun not intended. It's stark contrast. She hates and loves with the full power of puberty, at all times, no matter her mental age. Her hatred for Lestat colors her perception of Louis' love for him - she just cannot imagine Louis loving him. Oh she understands it. But to her Lestat is like Bruce, the worst of the worst, and she cannot fathom that there are actually vampires out there... who are much, much worse. That is part of the horror, that she just cannot... imagine, because ultimately Lestat and Louis raised her as a child and then a loved family member - not as a coven member. She has no point of reference, unfortunately. And no, Louis neither wants to have that conversation (but he is too nice to shut it down), nor does he want to leave. And that just... flies right over her head.
Neither Claudia nor Louis actually fear Lestat, and definitely not even after the fight. The car scene made that quite clear, imho.
Oh, they are angry at him, and justified in that anger. But fear? Nope.

The fact that Claudia didn’t choose to continue to make animal noises at Lestat whenever he dared utter words in her direction is proof she was trying to be nice. Louis should have appreciated the effort on her part more.
