An arm's length away, an absence of a presence, watching as Lestat sinks teeth into this man's neck. Louis can feel the way the piercing pain ripples through mortal awareness, detached, unable to find purchase when Louis has pushed his mind so far under.
Louis watches as the man's legs buckle. As Lestat takes his weight, and doesn't topple. He is better than Louis left him.
Eventually, Louis turns from the sight of Lestat drinking deep from the throat of a man unlucky enough to smile hopefully down the bar at Louis.
Treads into the house, becomes aware he isn't certain of where to go. What now?
(Leave. Break all his promises. Fix one single thing, just one.
No.)
Well, necessities. Take out the phone, arrange for the disappearance of one more body. A practical task.
