I’ve watched a lot of reacts and I’d say you’re my favorite reactor to this episode! I agree with a lot of what you say and you’re putting the perspective in new ways for me. It’s so good!

“Louis’ always struggled with what he is. Trying to prove himself to other people… He’s always trying to find his identity.” Omg I agree so much. The things Lestat loved and wanted to free Louis from as a human has obv crossed over. Trying to fast forward who he is to become a better version of himself isn’t working.

I love delving into the psyche of these characters and I couldn’t help but focus on lestat this episode. In my mind, when Louis rejects vampirism, Lestat feels that it’s in turn a rejection of him. Louis is not just ashamed of what he is, he is ashamed of what Lestat is too hence why he then goes running to Antoinette to soothe his ego. I also have a theory that Lestat flaunts Antoinette on purpose in front of Louis to provoke him into clinging to Lestat more but it instead does the opposite leading Louis to revisit an “old love”. Personally I think that’s what bothered Lestat more, that there was a shared history between Louis and the soldier, that it wasn’t just some random fling but there was feeling there.

Lestat told him that this would happen anyway, but Louis' guilt makes him blame himself. But you are so right: Louis did this for himself, and he ENJOYED it!

Louis gave him his life, and now he wants to blame Lestat for his world falling apart. Getting all the soldiers to leave was hard for Lestat, notice the blood coming from his ears.

She has sex with her at first. But he didn't kill her because she can sing. Louis let their relationship happen. He was watching it.

Louis is always trying to prove himself to humans. But what they think shouldn't be important to him anymore. I also think that Louis like to throw racism at Lestat, even though Lestat's intentions are not racist. Louis can be just as hateful as Lestat. I love how Lestat shows him that jazz can be music for anyone.

Thank you for noticing how cruel that was when Louis told Lestat he'd always be alone, when he already told Louis that's what he fears the most. Some people miss these little cruel moments from Louis. And they build up. Sam Reid is so good - you just see his face completely crumble when he says that to him. He really just wants Louis to embrace being a vampire, but as you also noticed, Louis is always struggling with accepting himself.

I didn’t comment cause I thought someone else would answer your question,but I think going back and watching the dinner scene in episode one will answer your question about Lestat’s views towards religion. Obviously there’s more to Lestat,but regarding religion I think the answer to that is best answered in episode one.

I really love how you look at the characters from multiple perspectives. They deserve that as they are so complex in their creation/writing. I would add that while we may have diff opinions, it's also helpful to continually revisit our viewpoints. I know my feelings about the characters change often depending on the events. This show is absolutely phenomenal. :)

Sierra!! i need to reply to your comment on the last reaction it was so good and thought provoking. The issue is is deserves a long response and currently my eyes are a lil weak but, i will get to the one I promise. Thanks you for sharing your thoughts and yes. Communication skills on 0 lol

Your reaction is immaculate I cannot wait for you to get to season 2 lord! I love your commentary. This is what I signed up for. Also the icharus parallel was even more incendiary when you know what the sun does to vampires. This man signed his death warrant, I don't feel bad. It was my favorite scene of the episode

Love you awareness to all sides of this. Louis is totally valid in his struggle with his humanity and Lestat is understandable in his frustration with Louis as he's a much more established vampire who no longer thinks the same. They're SO bad at communicating and it makes everything worse and events continue to unfold as a result of their own mistakes. This show is just so good lol

So this was a great reaction, that scene where the alderman got his, it’s one of my favorite scenes in ssn 1 not just that episode, I like to see Louis embrace what he is, it’s awesome

I think Louis would have killed himself had he not let Lestat turn him but I get what you’re saying. Btw you have me cracking up in this one, definately an enjoyment
