Boost this and help please! I've been messaging with one of the family members, Jenin. She's scared for her life and her family, they started this campaign in February and still don't even have enough to get one person across.

Updated 2x04 Loumand fight transcript. My Notes:.- Past DM? Infidelity accusation? 'Flirting' w/ Daniel's attention. Wrapped up into an overall accusation of messing w/ the interview via messing w/ Daniel which also messes w/ Louis and makes him look bad = getting back together?

Past DM truths are in everything but I find the 'It's in your nature Mr. Molloy, couldn't get out the door before lobbing one more bomb' is like. !!! OKAaaaYY now WHY would you know that??? Also the 'its what he does' or something in the bedroom just. now hmm??.

Uh. ?! Let's just hear it from Marius himself:."chosen for immortality for the very same reason. that we were nonpareils of our blood and blue-eyed race, that we were taller and more finely made than other men" (VL 384). Him being not white defeats the whole purpose he serves.

I donβt think the show is going to treat Marius quite as favorably as the books did but I also donβt think theyβd change how he is seen by both Armand and Lestat as someone to respect and owe a lot to. (Undeserved as it is.) Which will be interesting to see play out.

@valtheatre Mind/Age are WAY more important facets to consent than physicality. Claudia's like 50 and can give it to Madeleine of a sound position that she's an adult and entitled to her own body and wants to give this consent. Mad's respectful of this not forcing it to even be romantic yet.

What's really bad is there's no reason. like none! To not type a Assad's name on a list of actors. It really couldn't be more blatant exclusion. There's no suspicion on it, it literally is what's happened here. And its an ever growing pattern. Like wtf wt - actual - f even.

One thing I like about iwtv vampires is that terms like girlfriend/boyfriend donβt exist and if youβre just involved youβd say companions. Like living in company with one another for a supposed eternity as opposed to like defining it by a gender construct. Idk itβs good.

I'm glad we're discussing this clip because I've written so much about it before. (taken from tumblr). Like it changes actually nothing of how much shit Armand has done, its effects are more real than anything else, but it does put so much other context into it.

@ariesmandeo I got the impression Louis wanted to come along and help to be sure Armand wasnβt going to do anything more to Daniel. Louisβ also grown attached to Daniel in such a way he wants to help carry him, even if it hurts.

Iβll say what I think. People hate recognizing that Armand does face racism and colonialism because that would require confronting something they dislike - that the project of eradicating racism and colonialism would be removing that burden off people they hate as well.

@Lady_Katibeth I treat the shelves as a symbol of loumandβs relationship- aesthetics, knowledge, service, negotiation, and power. It is kept away (symbolic of Armandβs deceptions and power in dynamic) but all one would have to do is ask or make him do it (symbolic of the dynamic itself).

- Rolin Jones voice: "Everything, everything is about DM. It's all DM.".- Symbolic narrative of showing Louis becoming undone from wrapping his life all around Armand, and his lies, and becoming his own person.- Plays off Armand's past picking of a "choice" of a 'love' over Louis.

Hey, so those of iwtvtwt need for white comfort and willful ignorance of their own antiblackness and racism is bs. Itβs rampant and bs. Ppl have a right to be in fandom w/o all that and to call it out w/o this backlash. Get over urselves, learn something, and own up to behavior.

Iβm glad this was brought back to me. If I speak on it? This decision is smart to do with Armandβs character in terms of what a visual representation of sex would actually suggest. -.
hey, so um, the reason we didn't see loumand getting freaky was because of the writers taking a more empathetic approach to armand and his history, rather than a lack of intimacy between the two. Jacob also mentioned this during an after episode special

The way people treat the trauma and abuse in IWTV I do genuinely think reflects how they treat or think about victims, and what sorts of victims, they take seriously or not. There should honestly be some real discussions about this because it's often very concerning.

Huge difference between 'Louis doesn't care about anyone but his family' and 'Louis couldn't care about anyone but his family because of the isolated social conditions he's had to succeed and survive under'. Thought some were meaning the latter, and saying the former - but. hm.

Something about how Armand keeps Daniel around for about, if not exactly, how many hours per how many boys Louis had brought over to Divisadero. (128/24 = 5.3~ so 6 days.) Doing petty things only he (and my ass apparently) would ever be able to ever decipher.

Very good thread by oomf. Just felt like adding it's pretty implied he had NO name he was ever referred to when he was enslaved to the brothel, or he'd have recalled it. Arun is only ever the name his parents likely named him. His birth name.
by the name that was violently taken from him. Arun isn't his slave name. Amadeo is.

@per11winkle Have zero clue why this would ever center either of them in the negotiations of consent when itβs Claudia who canβt consent to this. While they were talking around her Lestat implied sheβd be a dog and Louis drags her over the floor like a doll. I mean. π.

The quote in what I'm quoting is from the thigh kissing stuff. Yeah, this book is not for the weak. Marius WHEN I CATCH YOU. Amadeo fought back ONE time then got what much cemented he can never say he hates Marius or object to him ever again. Its SICK It's SO SICK 1000 deaths.

My weird theory with no basis about this is that Sam (the vampire) made some kind of social media post of a picture that just says βArmand told the truthβ, written like this, and hasnβt made any further statement.

1; Establishing him as an equal who Lestat can look up to. He was chosen by Teskhamen because he's blonde, and blue-eyed, and tall. Exactly the selection process Magnus had. Which is cause they fit the European ideal of 'beauty' ie; aryan. Their 'blood' exemplifying things.

The trial actually does have to be unpreventable to the main cast of characters to accomplish how it's an allegory for the fatal illness that took Rice's daughter.

- (inference) 2 ways the interview will go: .The original agreement: Louis will kill Daniel as planned (to finish what he should've done; infidelity was revealed to him?) .Armand's foreseen: Louis won't be able to, so this is only inviting in death. Published, Louis will die.

Donβt wanna start discourse for this but I think itβs a little diluting to be thinking weβre getting much if any Nola flashback in tvl season. The book has SO much material to cover and includes little about those years but a correction he makes about it.

Sometimes I think about how Malik was telling Louis/Daniel that they should tell Armand to k himself. (Buy a Bugatti, crash it into the guard rails) What a little shit lmfao. Sort of need to see that chat thread between him and Armand leading up to this that led to that comment.

Iβll just say having criticisms of art or the artists behind it is not censorship, calling out racism where there is proof is not harassment, and discussing what you are consuming intellectually, critically, and not depoliticizing it, is good.

When Louisβ turned he throws Lestat against the wall so he can return to his home for his family, but canβt. When Louis is revealed about Armand he threw him against the wall so he can return to home for his family, and can.

This shot is so haunting. The paintings in the line up with each character. L2R: an enclosed, Venetian looking place -> An open place, surrounded by sheep and shepards -> Another open space, but by the sea, evoking a sense of unabashed freedom from both. /1

On the topic of Armand sexual slavery I do think itβs rather pertinent showMarius be included as a part of that continuum and not separate from it. Likely thereβs an appearance of more freedoms but he was still used as a sex commodity, unpaid, and bound to Marius will about it.

I'm not going to lie anymore either but many glossing over that Armand IS more a victim in life, just by fact that he's faced categorically more horrific, longer lasting, traumas to his mind and person, is just. it feels like I'm being gaslit. Why are our expectations so high?
did anyone else felt weirdly uncomfortable by this scene?ππ
