to Armand:
“You’ve can’t convince me you care about this”

‘I was wishing, as I often wished, that he was not there, that I was alone.’

Louis does not fw Armand..

‘something beyond Lestat that only included him and was part of the great awful sadness of all the things I’d ever lost or loved or known.’

“I wanted to talk to you so much,” he said”
(..)

“I went to Paris after you”

‘his agony obliterated me’

“Don’t fear me, Lestat. I bring you no harm.”
“You’ve come back to me, Louis” he whispered in that thin, high-pitched voice. “You’ve come home again to me, Louis, haven’t you?” And again he bit his lip and looked at me desperately.

“But I’m so glad to see you,” he stammered through his tears. “I’ve dreamed of your coming”

‘How baffling and awful it was, this smooth-faced, shimmering immortal man bent and rattled and whining like a crone.
“Yes, Lestat,” I said softly. “I’ve come to see you.”

‘Lestat, in fact, had aroused in me feelings which I hadn't wished to confide in anyone, feelings I'd wished to forget, despite Claudia's death. Hatred had not been one of them.’

‘But I was dead. And I was changeless. The story ended in Paris, as I’ve said.’
