my dad walked in my room while i had iwtv on and it was the scene where louis is drinking from armand at the table… he proceeded to do that “dad standing to watch tv” pose and ended up staying for 20 mins of the episode

it’s so funny how armand suggests the whole plan to reduce that old man back into the boy “who fumbled over his tape recording device” in san francisco only for him to fold like a lawn chair the moment daniel’s on the verge of tears
the way this scene from 1x05 is framed and the choice to have armand maintain eye contact with daniel during such an intimate act always reminds me of this loustat moment from 1x01
armand stopping himself from saying more in the first interview in the 70s (bc it would’ve proved that daniel is good at getting people to open up) vs present-day armand divulging his whole lestat backstory the moment him and daniel are alone in a room… many thoughts
between the memory of armand being triggered just as louis asks “what did she say when you finally asked her to marry you” and armand shifting in his seat before offering daniel some words of comfort, i’m ready to cough up blood
in light of every interaction between armand and daniel already being devil’s minion i had to bring this particular scene and its loaded dialogue back to the tl’s attention 🙂↕️
the sluttiest thing a man could possibly do is offer to give the person who’s interrogating and torturing him a bj right then and there like daniel molloy you truly ARE fascinating

“i did everything for you, and you looked through me like i wasn’t even there” and the fact that hugh ended up being able to phase through solid matter gives credence to the theory that sometimes powers manifest based around subconscious feelings and desires
I’ve watched this clip so many times I even went frame by frame on Daniel’s eye movement and he’s actually not looking at Armand’s hand he was checking out Armand himself. What is wrong with him. In front of the husband. WHAT IS HIS PROBLEM
we joke about jordan not playing about marie but the day she gets seriously hurt is gonna be crazy like they really might kill somebody for her 😭

there’s this top tier armand fidgeting scene in 2x05 where him and louis are going down memory lane meanwhile he’s rubbing his fingers together so intensely that even daniel notices
i had to pause and rewind this scene a concerning amount of times like the softness of their gazes and jordan’s hands gently cradling marie’s face had me spiraling
there’s something about armand so casually introducing himself to daniel (and even mentioning where they had met previously) before descending into days of psychosexual torture that makes me laugh every time
You cannot save her. She will always die. You cannot save her. She will always die. You cannot save her. She will always die. You cannot save her. She will always die, but i have to try.
i’m just imagining daniel being passed around like a narrative blunt next season… interviewing a sopping wet cat of a man dressed in glam rock with a little side plot of trying to hunt down his maker who has abandonment issues… all while being besties with louis mmm good food
cannot stop thinking about how jordan doesn’t even think twice when it comes to marie’s safety like they’ll run headfirst into danger if it means no harm comes to her

madeleine and claudia clutching onto one another like lifelines as sunlight floods over them… claudia looking death in the face knowing she WAS put first for once… her painful cry as madeleine turns to ash in her arms

the fact that they were together at the dawn of creation and had just met each other yet aziraphale was already looking at crowley so tenderly and showing concern for him has me crying like he was down HORRENDOUS
every time i’m reminded that armand’s only fledgling ended up with his eye color i do little backflips in my mind like imagine the inner turmoil of looking at the one person whose piercing gaze you sought to escape and now seeing your own eyes reflected back at you
armand speaks over his companion more than once, has tunnel vision for daniel the whole scene, and takes it so personally like no one said you owe him anything CALM YOURSELF
every time i read “couldn’t get out the door without lobbing one more bomb” it feels like a swift kick in the gut like please tell me more about the last time he lobbed a bomb at you before leaving armand… go into detail about what you know of his nature…
first date, i throw you around the room with my telekinesis like a rag doll. second date, i stalk you from the shadows, build a life with you, then erase your memories of it all. third date—
the bit about armand's theme being hard to pin down bc he's a shapeshifter reminds me of the interview where assad talks about his accent being chameleon-like and how we haven't even "heard a true voice for armand yet"

there’s something about mm once again being the voice of reason and trying to calm down a-train that soothes my soul like get this man on gen v so he can be a mentor for marie next
thinking about past dm and midnight mass… what if the one you loved a lifetime ago was older now and had a degenerative disease… what if the “i’d rather die than see you die” of it all led you to make a drastic choice… and what if you had another chance to get it right
armand trying to put so much distance between him and the one person who sees right through the cracks in his mask… calling him insignificant and never using his first name, only referring to daniel as mr molloy… just for them to end up tied through an inseverable bond
armand being vehemently against making a fledgling, an act that can be given but never taken back, yet choosing to make daniel his one and only… and although we may not know the circumstances of what went down between them, louis’ words echo in the back of my mind
the whole concept of armand as “a child pretending to be a grownup” is even reflected in some of the oversized outfit choices he wears, which swallow up his body and make him come across as much more unassuming
i just know armand was fighting for his life in the ticketmaster queues once lestat’s tour was announced and nearly blew up his ipad when it said 2000+ people were ahead of him
self-indulgently imagining a world in which armand has the reflective eyes that vampires in midnight mass have at night, making him even more feline-like than he already is
assad going off on a tangent about devil’s minion role-play for the sake of getting into character before reeling himself back in like he truly knows what the people want
“and the ones i did on my own were to protect me from you” protection from the one man in the room whose perception you’re unable to control and who chips away at your mask with every passing day but sure yeah keep on telling yourself he’s just an insignificant mortal
there’s this other moment in the finale where armand says daniel “couldn’t get out the door without lobbing one more bomb” and there’s something so personal about the delivery coupled with him saying it’s in daniel’s nature that in my eyes just fans the flames of past dm
"and what did she say when you asked her to marry you?" AND THE ARMAND FLASHBACK HITS EXACTLY IN THAT MOMENT????? AND THE CAMERA PANS TO PRESENT DAY ARMAND WHO LOOKS LIKE A SAD KICKED PUPPY??????? past dm happened it's canon it's more than canon at this point
neck biting and thigh riding being talked about on the timeline right now pertaining to devil’s minion… now just sprinkle some edging in there and you’ve got yourself a deal
