What was too much? A moment in Lestat's presence had been too much. Any thought on him was too much. And his blood streaming into him, filling him with power and showing him just more of what he already knew Lestat to be? It was too much and yet when he pulled away, he was reluctant. He wanted to drown in him and burn in his flame. He always wanted to.
"Fuck, Lestat, you shameless slut." It was an insult, sure enough, but Nicolas sounded too amused for it to sting the way he might sling similar words in a different mood. His moods could change like mercury, but right now he simply shook his head, not holding back with the crudeness of his language. "I wouldn't even bother remembering the names of as many people as you think you love. But what do you love him for? I've read his book. Louis's book. The one who is so very much like me." The dryness of his tone made obvious what he made of that assessment.
"You stayed with him so long and that is what he thinks of you? After I was gone and Gabrielle left you, was it just easier to fall for people that didn't know you at all?" He hummed, then licked his lips in a quick movement, his smile as sharp as his judgement. Meant to cut. "Telling, isn't it?"
