By "masturbating," what I meant was that I was going to hammer nails into the palms of my hands and whip my back to share the same pain as Jesus Christ, seeing as I'm Catholic and that is all I need to do to satisfy myself, but I suppose people took this way differently.

understanding of how tragic it can be is intertwined with the desire to not make it so. he doesn't turn armand & chain him down to suffer. but i think armand, *if* he's angry at marius for anything, would be angry about the deception. like marius Did warn him about vampirism but

unevitable rocks the foundation of what he has spent years believing in, which feels threatening when you depend on structure, and in turn he wants to subdue characters like lestat and claudia. on the other hand, i think it aids his desire to make his relationship with louis last

armand's existential pessimism is such an important part of his character to me. i don't think he's particularly a debbie downer but i think it's interwoven with how he perceives his life and the lives of other characters. the children of darkness teach him that vampirism is

is just how Things Are. to me this influences his treatment of the coven & claudia especially, because to him it's like ... life is tough, deal with it. and yet despite the toughness of life there are elements of hers he's jealous of, and more importantly there's a fight in

her that refuses to collapse under the weight of her tragedy, like lestat, which armand wasn't capable of doing. and this makes him angry because *his* fight was extinguished, and he believes that the acceptance of suffering is inevitable; the concept of it *not* being
