“choose your companions with care. Choose them because you like to look at them and you like the sound of their voices. In other words, choose them because you love them.'
"I understand," I said. "Make them in love."
"Exactly, make them in love. And make certain they have had some lifetime before you make them; and never never make one as young as Armand. That is the worst crime

Marius’s storyyyy!! also akasha finally introduced?? Gabriella highkey disgusting and grooming Lestat, hard to read and accept. I liked her philosophy at first in being a vampire but her wanting to be completely evil? its an interesting convo piece, but you can’t be serious. Also, my poor Nicki, such a sad situation

“Armand kept two secrets to himself” “no matter how great his loneliness, he never worked the Dark Trick himself. He wouldn't give that to Satan, no Child of Darkness made by him: the other secret, was simply the extent of his ever deepening despair.”
That he craved nothing, cherished nothing, believed nothing. Existed from moment to moment in a void broken once every night of his eternal life by the kill”

“we were to be as the Black Death itself, a vexation without explanation, to cause man to doubt the mercy and intervention of God.”

Never mind, Armand was manipulating him so he could steal his power. and now Lestat is trying to kill him

“Yet never had Nicolas, mortal or immortal, been so alluring. Never had Gabrielle held me so in thrall.

Dear God, this is love. This is desire. And all my past amours have been but the shadow of this.”
- Lestat about Armand

I will riot if this mesmerizing scene is not in the third season of IWTV.

“I don’t have to read your mind,” she said, “to know what’s in your heart.”
- Gabrielle to Lestat

that was Lestat describing Armand

“Grotesque he seemed, this filthy waif of the netherworld, and yet his beauty held sway.”
